Extracurricular Opportunities

Student Clubs

Akiba Yavneh Academy offers students numerous opportunities beyond their classroom instruction to enhance not only their interest in writing and journalism but their skills in those areas as well.

The Bulldog Print

The Bulldog Print, Akiba Yavneh Academy's student newspaper, has in 12 years grown to publish two editions throughout the school year, with staff members winning many local, state, and national awards for production, writing, and layout design. Click here to view the Bulldog Print digital format. 

Yavneh Yearbook

Working on the yearbook is an exciting and fulfilling experience for any student. Each year the Yearbook Staff creates a representation of the school that serves as a catalyst for lifelong memories of high school for years to come.

Music Ensemble

Akiba Yavneh Academy's Music Ensemble is a collective group of students that perform at AYA's Fall Arts' Night as well as at other programs throughout the year.

Mock Trial

Since 2001, Akiba Yavneh Academy students have been learning the ABC’s of objections, "Your Honors," public speaking, and the experience and learning that its Mock Trial program provides. AYA's incredibly popular and successful Mock Trial Team, founded by former Yavneh Dad Warren Abrams, has taught our students much through its educational and stimulating programming.

Akiba Yavneh Academy's Mock Trial season, which runs through most of the year with matches from December through March, follows the outline provided by the Dallas Bar Association, including each year's case.  While AYA's team does not compete in the Dallas arena, because most events are held on Saturdays, Mr. Abrams arranges for matches between AYA students and other high school programs in the community.
