In keeping with the Buxton philosophy that every aspect
of school life is valuable to a student's education, activities
play a prominent role. Students of any
degree of interest and ability are urged to take part, and
everyone is counted on to support each other's efforts
-- as co-participant, audience, or encouraging friend.
Studio art, ceramics, photography, music, drama, dance,
creative writing, and drumming -- all are designed to foster
personal expression and commitment through self-discipline,
patient practice, interpersonal skill, and astute observation
of life.
Every student is invited to try out the various activities.
Regardless of previous training or talent, active involvement
is open to all. The hard work of preparation and the often
unsettling act of presentation before peers, family, and
the community-at-large provide learning opportunities for
each individual involved. With these challenges come new
levels of insight, courage, and ambition.
