Formation

Character education in Bannister Academy takes place within the seamless continuum of formal subject classes, class advisory sessions, and personal mentoring.

It is comprised of monthly activities for high school students only that enhance the students’ overall growth by having them listen to and interact with a variety of guest speakers, as well as attending workshops held here in school.

As part of the school’s commitment to forming students, it organizes two major parenting talks every school year. The school invites experts in the fields of psychology, communication, and family development to talk to parents about current issues that affect parents and children.

Explore Bannister Academy’s Student Affairs to discover a diverse range of formative opportunities, empowering students to thrive in both academics and personal growth.

Student Affairs

Board Games Club

Competitive online games might not be some people’s form of entertainment. With the Board Games Club, members will go back to physically moving their miniatures on the board as they roll their dice. The club will have a wide range of board games to choose from. The board games will continually change throughout the year to make things more interesting for its members as they try out different kinds of game genres from role-playing and deduction to deck-building and co-op.

Artpreneur Club

The Artpreneur Club is not just the regular art club as it incorporates the ideals of entrepreneurship as well. The club aims to teach kids how to become innovative thinkers through the use of different resources with the different art skills. With each output, or in this case, each product, that the kids create, they also learn how to communicate what their product is all about. By the end of this year, the students will gain a better understanding about how the world works.

BJJ Club and Varsity

Jiu jitsu is all about technique over strength: using what you have as a leverage even when at a disadvantage. As one of the more practical martial art forms, kids and teens will learn how to use the proper techniques for self-defense and survival. This martial art teaches its students to have discipline and be able to control the situation they may find themselves in whether it is on the mats or in real life.

Chess Club and Varsity

This year, Bannister will be forming the school’s very first Chess Club and Varsity. As a mind sport, members will go through mental challenges in learning different openings, techniques, moves in order to beat their opponent continually honing their problem-solving skills the more they play the game. However, outside the game, this club and varsity aims that the members be able to use that some problem-solving ability in their real-life problems.

Debate Varsity

Many social issues have been coming up recently in society and kids are becoming more socially aware of these. The Debate Varsity gives these kids the proper diplomatic avenue for, as this generation calls it, their “wokeness” as they express themselves in the proper means. This will hone the students’ oral skills and confidence in presenting arguments in front of a crowd. Even before making these arguments, they will also be learning how to listen intently to gather and analyze information to make their own conclusions.

A well-trained mind is what Susan Wise Bauer described as the fruit of a good education.
A person with a well-trained mind can tackle difficult subjects, learn on his own, understand and structure logical statements,
and finally, communicate thought from one mind to another.
