The Podcast Club
Sponsor: Mrs.Knutz
Email: [email protected]
Meet: Wednesday
Purpose: When we started the Podcast Club, we wanted a platform for students to express their ideas and for others to listen and be a part of the conversation. We want to be known as a club by the students, for the students. We have fun and educational topics, and are always open to suggestions! Soon we will also be able to go to the TCC campus and record in their studio! All members have the opportunity to host on the podcast. There are jobs from editing and writing the script to posting on our Instagram and making graphics. You’re welcome to do anything, and we know you will have fun

Student Ambassadors
Sponsor:Riley Cavanagh
Meets: Tuesdays
Purpose: When you all made the decision to come to Collegiate Academy it was likely influenced in one way or another by the student ambassadors that came to your school and tried to sell you on the Collegiate Academy experience. They aren’t limited to going to middle schools, but instead also have a program setup with elementary schools in which they mentor 5th graders, and are the students that we call upon to meet with visitors to our school. If you’re the kind of person that can sell ice to an eskimo and wants to help other people share in the amazing opportunity you’ve been given at Collegiate Academy then this is the club for you!

Computer Club
Sponsor: Benjamin Schubert
Meets: Tuesdays 6th period
Purpose: Computer club is dedicated to the learning of technology in fun and engaging ways. We split up our meetings into software and hardware dedicated days. In terms of software, we have been focusing on learning Python and Linux using tools such as our Raspberry Pis, virtual machines, and IDEs. During hardware dedicated meetings we study the various components that allow a computer to operate, such as RAM, storage, CPUs, and motherboards. To do this, we have computers that we take apart and reassemble. Moreover, the club emphasizes the importance of certifications. Currently, we are working towards our members to receive the CompTIA A+ certificate. This entry level IT certification will open up the door to the realm of computer related jobs such as a PC technician. We are excited for the coming years, and can't wait to see what our members go on to achieve in the world of computers!
