Clubs and Events / Clubs and Activities

Become an active member in the Darnell-Cookman community and join a club or participate in an activity! Through extra-curricular activities students can make new friends, learn new skills, or practice a hidden skill or passion.

Every month Great Decisions travels to UNF to meet with other high schools and four colleges- UNF, Flager, JU, and FSCJ. The program provides background information and policy options for the eight most critical issues facing America each year.

Most recently, students had the opportunity to interact with former Australian Prime Minister, Malcolm Turnbull.
