 Student Council                          (4th, 5th, and 6th Grade)                     Hunting Ridge Student Council endeavors to promote, and actively participate in the community.  A variety of community outreach activities that benefit community members are hosted each year.  The Student Council acts as a liaison between school, parents, and community.  The Council sponsors monthly Spirit Days and an annual Spirit Week to encourage students to show school pride.  They run a school supply store every Tuesday at lunch and plan other activities for the benefit of the school population.  They also work for positive change in the school.  Students are encouraged to take an active role in their school by directing ideas, suggestions, and concerns through their class representatives as well as two suggestion boxes located on the first and second floors.

 Studio and Announcer’s Club             (5th and 6th Grade)                       There are five members on each Hunting Ridge Studio Club team; four students and one adult sponsor.  Teams work together behind the scenes for an entire week planning, writing, and producing the morning announcements.  Students are trained and skilled in the use of each piece of technology in the TV studio.  Members practice and polish the “show” until it is perfect.  At exactly 9:10 a.m. we go live from the WHR Studio, Channel 70, Hunting Ridge School with the day’s school news.

 Intramurals                                    (5th and 6th Grade)
          Each month a different sport is focused on.  During the month the children will learn a few pointers, but mostly play games.  Each sport is designed to build unity, cooperation, and comradery.  The goal of intramurals is for everyone to participate and have a good time.
