Clubs & Activities
Bright Lights Choir
The Bright Lights Choir of Eisenhower extra-curricular activities are available to students so they can pursue their interests or hobbies even further. The Bright Lights of Eisenhower, a choral ensemble that meets before school, is an opportunity for the upper grade level students to devote additional time to developing musical skills, such as singing, reading music, creating vocal harmonies and working as an integral part of a music ensemble. As students take part in this ensemble, it is my goal to expose them to challenging and engaging musical experiences that will inspire them throughout their lives! For more information.

Lifelong Learning Programs
BVSD Lifelong Learning offers a way for kids to expand their knowledge without having to worry about grades or homework. After the school bell rings, students can switch gears from core curriculum to their choice of creative, active and/or brain building options. Igniting a spark outside of the classroom can improve children’s attitude toward school and boost their self-confidence. Best of all, Lifelong Learning reinvests 100% of its profits back into BVSD.
Kids before- and after-school classes meet at 24 different BVSD schools and follow their bell schedules (any BVSD or non-BVSD student is welcome to enroll in classes at any location):
| Aspen Creek K-8 | BCSIS | Bear Creek | Birch | Coal Creek | Comm. Mont. |
| Douglass | Eisenhower | Eldorado K-8 | Fireside | Flatirons | Foothill |
| Heatherwood | High Peaks | Horizons | Kohl | Lafayette | Louisville |
| Meadowlark | Mesa | Monarch K-8 | Nederland | Pioneer | Ryan |
| Superior |
Each class is made up of anywhere from five to twelve weekly or bi-weekly sessions. Fall after-school classes run from late August through mid-November, with additional options over Thanksgiving and winter break. Spring classes run from mid-January through mid-May with additional Spring Break options.
Families from each school receive specialized emails detailing offerings at their location. Check out our current offerings.
