• We would like all of our students to enjoy the 360-degree experience while attending Garner. We do this by providing a welcoming atmosphere where students can explore and participate in meaningful enriching extra-curricular activities in addition to challenging coursework.

    With well over 30 clubs and organizations, Garner offers students and their parents many opportunities to enjoy our community and its diverse interests.

Robotics Club

Garner's Robotics Club allows students to see how science, math and technology skills can be used to design and program challenging tasks for robots to complete. This is a club just for 6th grade students, but space is extremely limited. Applications are typically available during September. Students make sure you check the morning announcements for more details during the months of August through October. Feel free to contact Nicole Dahlquist or Katina Wright if you have any questions.
