Clubs
There are varieties of service, but the same Lord; and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone.
1 Corinthians 12:5-6
Racine Lutheran High School is committed to fostering the development of the whole person within each student. Our co-curricular clubs and activities reinforce the faith, knowledge, character, and leadership our dedicated faculty instills in our students through their instruction. Below is a list of the numerous opportunities available to students at Racine Lutheran.
Art Club
The Art Club is designed to give students an after-school opportunity to stay integrated in the culture of artists at Racine Lutheran and within the community. Students will be provided with chances to meet local artists, attend local events, partner in projects, and simply spend time making art outside the classroom.
Athletic Teams
Athletic participation is an extension of the classroom where students learn the values of dedication, leadership, focus, and teamwork. To learn more about athletic opportunities at Racine Lutheran, click on “Athletics” in the main menu.
Audio-visual Club
Audio-Visual Club acquaints students with live production and sound. Students have the opportunity to learn industry-level broadcast programs and develop their creative niche for film, television, music, or other audio-visual projects. Audio-Visual Club runs our daily news broadcast “the 251.”
Drama Club
Drama club is designed to allow students to act on stage, learn set construction, make-up, and lighting, and become backstage helpers. At least one play is performed per year, usually in the fall. As interest grows and time is available, more plays may be produced. Rehearsal schedules vary based on student activities and gym availability. Find out more at the Drama Page.

RLHS 31:30
This young women’s Bible study/youth group encourages students to meet outside of school hours to talk about real-life problems in a Biblical way. The RLHS 31:30 group name is based on Proverbs 31:30 “Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.”

Through activities, events, and conversations, members deepen their understanding and appreciation of the Spanish-speaking world.
