At Evansville Day School, students are actively encouraged to pursue their passions, and co-curriculars are one way students can engage in activities that interest them. In recent years, many student-driven co-curricular clubs have been formed, such as Girls Scouts, Running Club, Future Healthcare Workers, Archery, Venture Club (gaming), and Model UN. Faculty and administrators are open to hearing pitches for student initiatives and finding ways to support their passions.
