Formation Beyond The Bell

Student life extends far beyond the classroom. Whether they're performing on stage, building a business plan, mastering their next chess move, or leading a service initiative, there’s a place for students to grow their talents and passions.

Where Talents Grow and Leaders Rise

Whether you're playing jazz on Beale Street, launching a startup in FBLA, mentoring peers through NHS, or exploring your heritage in CASA—there's a place for you here. Subiaco's clubs and activities help young men grow in leadership, confidence, and community.

Subiaco Jazz Ensemble

Founded by Deacon Roy Goetz in 2002, the Jazz Ensemble performs styles ranging from swing and blues to Latin and fusion. Touring 40+ venues annually and with a reputation for excellence and invitation-only performances in cities like St. Louis and Memphis, the ensemble emphasizes the art of connecting with live audiences. 

Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA)

As part of the largest student business organization in the world, Subiaco's FBLA chapter gives students hands-on experience in leadership and entrepreneurship. Members manage The Trojan Shop, compete at state and national levels, and learn the foundations of business through events and student-run initiatives.

Cultural Awareness Student Association (CASA)

Led by the Language Department, CASA celebrates the cultural richness of Subiaco’s global student body through events highlighting food, music, art, and traditions. Students educate and inspire the community by sharing their heritage.
