Student Organizations

Students at Buxton take responsibility for shaping and enriching their own lives and the life of the group. Student-created organizations such as the Multicultural Awareness Alliance, Student Voice, and fundraising groups for particular causes work to unite, encourage, and educate the school community.

Dormitory Supervisors

There are many opportunities at Buxton for students to develop their leadership skills. One such opportunity is serving as a dorm supervisor or DS. Each morning the entire student body attends to minor tasks within the dorms. These chores are organized and overseen by a small group of dedicated students, the dorm supervisors, who also serve as mentors and guides to the younger students as they navigate the complexities of dorm living.

Student Services

Buxton, since its inception, has met many of its needs through the thoughtful intent and useful work of its students. Individuals select tasks ranging from stoking the stoves in the Classroom Building to driving to the supermarket to shop for Sunday teas to caring for the animals in the biology lab or mixing and stocking chemicals in the darkroom. The list of tasks is generated each year by faculty and students.
