Drum Point Elementary School
Safety Patrol is for fifth graders who would like to take on the responsibility of helping ensure the safety of fellow students during the school day. Safety Patrol’s main function is to be present during arrival and dismissal: helping students get to class and making sure they are following the school rules while doing so. If a Safety Patrol member observes a student not following those rules and being unsafe, they will report that activity to Mr. MacCarrick.

Do you love to sing? Then chorus is the club for you! Drum Point Chorus is open to all students in Grades 3, 4, and 5. Our Chorus performs a winter concert in December and a spring concert at the end of the school year. To prepare for these performances, we meet once a week during recess.
The Drum Point Band is open to all fifth grade students who are interested in playing flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, or percussion. We will perform at a winter concert in January, a spring concert in May, and a district wide band festival. In addition to our band, we often have smaller ensembles play at our concerts and the talent show. Joining band in fifth grade opens up even more exciting performance opportunities for students in middle and high school, and can be the beginning of a lifelong appreciation for music.
Art Club is a wonderful opportunity for students in grades 3 through 5 who are interested in the arts to come explore, learn and create. Come out and join the fun! Explore your artistic side as we learn about art and serve the community through service learning.
The World Language Club offers 5th graders the opportunity to explore the cultures of the Spanish speaking countries through crafts, games, music, and stories.

Daily attendance is important for this program.
Student Council is a group composed of students chosen by their classmates to organize social and extracurricular activities, come up with ideas to make our school better, and to be the voice of the students at Drum Point Road School. Student Council meets monthly to discuss new ideas and ventures.
