Student Clubs

Make a difference in the world, while exploring your interests and making new friends.

Engage & Connect

The de Toledo experience is as much about what happens outside the classroom as inside. By participating in groups and clubs, students connect with others by becoming activists for a cause, sharing a passion for music, raising awareness about the larger Jewish community or acting as an ambassador for our school. These experiences will extend far beyond their years at dTHS.
