Elective Club Menu

At Baldi, students have a choice to join clubs during their screen break. This is optional! Students do not have to join a club. Students should first join a Google Classroom. Those codes can be found below, which is password protected for each grade-level. Ask your advisory teacher for the password. Students then can join a google Classroom for their club and find the meet link on the google classroom. If a student joins a club, they must stay there on that day for the full period. We encourage students to join and stay with clubs as often as they can.
