Our clubs reflect the diverse interests and talents of our student body. From academic teams and honor societies to cultural groups and performance ensembles, students have the opportunity to explore new ideas, deepen existing passions, and build lasting friendships. These organizations not only enrich the high school experience but also help students develop essential skills that prepare them for college, careers, and civic life.
Participation in extracurricular activities is strongly encouraged at I.M. Terrell. We believe that learning happens everywhere—and our clubs are a powerful extension of that philosophy. Whether you're joining a competitive robotics team, performing in a jazz ensemble, advocating for change through student government, or launching a new initiative, you'll find support, mentorship, and inspiration every step of the way.
Parent Consent & Senate Bill 12 Compliance
In accordance with Texas Senate Bill 12, I.M. Terrell Academy is committed to upholding parental rights and transparency in student participation. As part of this legislation, annual parental consent is required for students to participate in any district- or campus-sponsored clubs and organizations. This includes academic teams, service groups, interest-based clubs, and extracurricular activities. Parents must actively provide consent each school year before their child can engage in these activities. The law ensures families are informed and empowered to make decisions about their child’s involvement in school-based programs. Consent forms are distributed through the district’s designated platform (Parent Portal) and must be completed to authorize participation. We encourage families to review club offerings and reach out with any questions to ensure a smooth and inclusive experience for all students.
