At C.B.A. the students have access to far more then just sports and academics. The activities and clubs at C.B.A. range from Amnesty International to Art. At C.B.A. activities fall into a wide variety of categories. There are the action groups such as Amnesty, S.A.D.D., Teen Institute, and Ecos. There are competitive groups; Math Team, Math League.

Jeremy Hammill is caught in the act of working on his mural in the art room.
