Activities/Clubs

Below are the clubs and after school activities available for students.

Information and applications for activities are available in the office.

Choral Club - Dillard's Choral Club performs at Dillard PTO Meetings and offers their beautiful voices to share the world of music with parents, staff, students and community members. Not only does the Choral Club perform for the student body, they also perform at off campus events in the community. Chorus meets weekly on Wednesdays until 4:00 after school.

 

Art Club - Dillard's Art club offers experiences with a variety of art media, including water colors, oil painting, sculpture and other exciting projects and activities. Constructing 3-dimential sculptures to beautify our school's cafeteria, organizing creative activities for community nights and designing props for PTO programs, Dillard's Art Club offers an outlet for students to explore their creativity and dreams. 

Backpack Pals - This is a special program sponsored by Madison Presbyterian Church.  Students that are selected for this program receive a backpack filled with food every Friday.  It is hoped that the food will be eaten, and more will be wanted for the next weekend. 

 

Every Wednesday  a member of Madison Presbyterian Church arrives at Dillard and brings 30-40 bags of food. 

 

Every Friday, children take home a bag  filled with a variety of canned and boxed food. The program is anonymous and it costs the parents nothing. Food allergies and sensitivities along with other health issues are considered as each bag  is filled.

 

This program is another way Dillard and the community are working together to help our students be successful!

Thank you Madison Presbyterian Church!

 

Feeling Good Mileage Club - The Feeling Good Mileage Club is a walking incentive program that is designed to promote physical activity during the school day outside the regular Physical Education class. Setting a new school goal each year, the Feeling Good Mileage Club is open to all students. Anyone who walks may keep up with their miles on a card that can be traded in for small "Toe" tokens that can be worn anywhere.

Student Ambassadors - Dillard's student council is made up of responsible and caring students from 1-5th grades. These individuals maintain high expectations on class work and behavior and are selected as the leaders of our school.  Their purpose is to welcome new students to Dillard
