High School

Art club is a great space for students to continue projects that they have been working on during their art class or to try something new. Art Club is open to all students, not just those who are currently enrolled in Art classes.

This is a wonderful opportunity for students to learn about cars or spend time in an arena they already love. No experience necessary.

Community Service is organized by Rev. Ferguson and is typically 1–2 days per week. If selecting Community Service, Rev. Ferguson will follow up with you directly.

Landmark High School's debate club participates in six tournaments each year and numerous scrimmages with local high schools.

Through debating, students acquire new skills that are usually outside our students’ comfort zone. This can be challenging and intimidating. Most people dread speaking in public. The experience of confronting an intimidating challenge and succeeding is empowering for students. Debating also requires taking shorthand notes and writing persuasive cases that cite scholars, scientists, judges, politicians, and literature.

The life skills and values gained through speech and debate impact a student the rest of their life. Ninety-nine percent of speech and debate students go on to college. Speech and debate students have a significant edge in college admissions. Speech and debate participation provides cognitive and behavioral outcomes, including: improved reading, listening, speaking, writing, and critical thinking skills. Students must be prepared to speak extemporaneously and "think on their feet."  It also results increased motivation, intellectual curiosity, and engagement.

The fiction club is a terrific place for staff and students to meet and discuss their favorite novels, short stories, graphic novels, and movies. Likely to be light on reading and heavy on discussion!

The InterCultural Group celebrates the many distinct cultures on campus while also highlighting the commonalities between these groups. The mission of the InterCultural Group is "to foster a sense of identity, acceptance, and belonging for all Landmark students; to acknowledge, bring attention to, and celebrate the rich cultural and ethnic diversity of the entire community; and to discuss domestic and international issues that impact our society."

The group meets a few times a month and organizes several events throughout the year. Each year has a different theme. Past themes have included Privilege, Culture Shock, and Bias, and Identity: The Wonderful Mosaic That Is Landmark. 

The InterCultural Group is not limited to foreign students. Any student interested in learning about different cultures, preparing and tasting ethnic foods, and sharing common experiences and what they love or miss more about their culture is welcome. Learn more and read what students have to say about InterCultural Group.

The Student Advocates' mission is to better educate and inform teachers and students at local colleges and universities about language-based learning disabilities (LBLD). During their presentations, the Advocates provide teachers, undergraduate students, and graduate students with the knowledge and strategies to support their students. Through their personal stories, the Advocates give direct insight into how students with LBLD comprehend and adapt to information they are being taught. They work to clarify and disprove stereotypes related to language-based learning differences. The Advocates strive to serve and support the Landmark School campus and the broader community through community service and fund raising.

The Student Council is a group of Landmark students elected by their peers to represent the student body, act as a sounding board, address student concerns, and contribute positively to the community. The Student Council's mission statement states that the group is committed to the following actions:

• Sponsoring fundraisers for charitable organizations (examples include: Oxfam America, UNICEF, Globe Santa, the American Cancer Society, Salem Mission, Beverly Bootstraps, and Cape Ann Food Pantry).
