Breakfast Club
Our school day begins bright and early with all students and teachers meeting for the Breakfast Club. We start with announcements, and then we turn it over to guest speakers, who come to Anacapa from all over the world to share their life stories. Students are eager to ask questions of our speakers to develop their public speaking abilities and sharpen their critical thinking skills.
Anacapa alumni often tell us that it was a Breakfast Club speaker who stimulated their interest in a field they knew little about at the time but which eventually became their career.
