During School
Lunch Clubs
APG Beacon offers multiple lunch clubs for APG students that support their academic enrichment, enhance their social skills, give them an opportunity to pursue new or existing interests and connect them with the school community. Some current clubs that are offered include Minecraft, Crochet, Homebody, and more!
*Registration is not required to join lunch clubs*
Students are welcome to drop in to clubs. Please reach out to Cameron Gunter at cgunter@bacr.org or gunterc@x.sfusd.edu if you have questions or need a lunch pass.
Student Leadership
APG Beacon promotes student leadership by offering volunteer opportunities, supporting students in leading lunch clubs, and through programs such as Student Government and Events Committee. We believe that by encouraging student leadership, we can support students in broadening and improving skills that they already have.
Student Government consists of 24 student senators - 8 senators from each grade level, elected by their peers. As senators, they promote leadership, service, student voice, and community engagement. If you have any questions, please reach out to our Student Leadership Specialist, Clay Au at cau@bacr.orgor auc@x.sfusd.edu. More information coming soon!
Events Committee consists 12 students - across 6 to 8th grade. Their focus to plan and coordinate events throughout the school such as the school dances, spirit week, fundraisers, etc. They work with the support of student government to make all of this possible, and spearhead all the logistics for school events.
Garden Education
The APG Garden hosts inquiry-based environmental education classes and a Garden Lunch Club during the school day as well as Garden Adventures; an After School project based learning club. We also offer community engagement opportunities for community members both during and outside of school time.
Garden Club is a lunch club open to all APG students. They meet at lunch on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the Garden.
Garden Work Days are for students and community members to help beautify the Garden space and connect with their community. The next Garden Workday is on Sunday, May 3rd, 2026
