Clubs

At Seton Catholic, students can join a variety of clubs that appeal to every interest - from social justice to trivia to fishing - and much more! All clubs are student-run and new clubs can be formed at any time. We are always adding new clubs to our lineup, and all students are invited to join at any time!

Chess Club

Chess club meets during lunch on Mondays, but chess practice happens every day. In chess, students play each other to practice the fundamentals of chess with a goal of improving memory, strategic thinking and tactical maneuvering.

Knowledge Bowl

Knowledge bowl is an academic competition that involves fast-paced thinking and teamwork. Students work together to solve oral and written questions, which result in scored points. Our school’s teams compete against other teams from neighboring schools to see who can answer the most questions in math, science, history, language arts, and more. Team members race against each other to be first to “buzz in” with the correct answer. In previous years, competitions were held live at a host school. The location of this year’s competitions have yet to be determined.

Meetings: Wednesday and Thursday at lunch

Advisor: Dan Floyd

Liturgy Choir

Liturgy Choir provides the music for our weekly school Masses as well as special liturgical celebrations throughout the year. Students are able to share their musical gifts and talents playing the piano, guitar, percussion and singing liturgically appropriate contemporary Christian songs and traditional hymns. We practice once a week during lunch to prepare for that week's Mass.

Meetings: Wednesdays

Advisor: Kendra Brislawn

Mock Trial

Mock Trial revolves around the study of a different case each school year. The case is written by a Clark County judge and is sent to teams throughout the state. The competitions are sponsored by the YMCA. The case usually comes out around the end of September and the students start to determine which role they would like to play after reading the case and deliberating a bit on the different personalities.

The witness roles entertain a more dramatic side with students playing a “role” and studying the personality of the witness through the statements they have given to the court for evidence. The attorney roles are divided into Prosecution and Defense and students interested in these roles often have aspirations of being an attorney or then see a theme in the one side or the other that they believe they can argue and present well.

After preparing for the case just as attorneys would, preparing questions for witnesses, working with witnesses to get the right reaction from the jury and perfecting pretrial and opening statements, and outlining a closing statement from October through February, we face other teams in competition, usually held at the Clark County Courthouse.

During the competition our Defense team will compete against another school’s Prosecution and vice versa. Real lawyers volunteer to sit on the “jury” and rate the “performance”. And real Judges volunteer to “hear our cases”. It is really very much like a real courtroom with a few differences. Unlike real trials there are time limits for different parts of the trial so students have to really manage their witnesses and be careful not to use up time that will be needed for future witnesses.

Awards are presented after several rounds with different teams for best prosecuting attorney, best defense attorney, best witness and best team. The top teams go on to compete in a state competition. The Seton Catholic team went to the state competition in 2021.
The Seton Catholic Mock Trial team began during the 2017-18 school school year. Our current coach is Attorney and Seton parent Kasey Vu.

Meetings: Monday, 5:45-7:00 PM

Chapter membership not only recognizes students for their accomplishments, but challenges them to develop further through active involvement in school activities and community service.

Rock Climbing Club

This club provides an opportunity for students interested in the great sport of rock climbing. Whether a person is a beginner or an experienced climber, in this club we learn how to appreciate the growth of each member of the club. We put together outings as a group to indoor facilities throughout the year, which happen primarily on Fridays.

Come join us on the crags!

Advisor: Dan Chase

Stock Wisdom and Personal Finance

The main purpose of the Stock Wisdom, Personal Finance club is to learn about the stock market and how it works, as well as issues dealing with personal finance like debt, budgeting, etc. Each student begins with a hypothetical $10,000 to invest, and we compete with each other over the course of the year to see who can create the most value. This year, we had each club member pick three stocks: one long-term investment and two stocks that he or she thinks could do well once the economy recovers.

Meetings: Thursdays at lunch
