Student Clubs & Activities
AMS 2025-2026 Clubs and Activities
Every year Abington Middle School offers a robust selection of after-school enrichment opportunities for students. These selections vary from year to year based on student and staff interests.
There is a one-time $50.00 fee for participating in any after school enrichment opportunity. Students may participate in multiple clubs, but only need to pay that fee once. We want to make sure that all students have a chance to participate.
If you would like to participate in an after-school club but require assistance with the fee, please e-mail me directly at matthewmaccurtain@abingtonps.org.
