Student Clubs

Find Your Community

A great way to get involved at Brightpoint is by joining a club, interest group, or an intramural sports team! If you are interested in joining a club or organization, please feel free to email a club leader or sponsor. All Brightpoint students are welcome to join any club.  Check the weekly Student Activities newsletter for updated meeting times.
