The Photography Club is for all students grades 9 - 12 who are interested in learning more about photography as an art form. The club functions through weekly e-mail assignments. Students take several digital images based upon the assignment or theme of the week. Students e-mail the images to Mrs. Brown for individual feedback and helpful hints on improving their photography skills. In the spring, students will display some of their photographs in the Whitefield Art Show. The club is a requirement for any student who would like to take Advanced Placement Photography. Students who wish to take this course in the 12th grade must be enrolled in the photo club for at least one year before they can be considered. The Club is available for current art students as well as those who are not enrolled in a visual art course at Whitefield Academy. There is no level of experience necessary. All that is required is an interest in learning and enjoying photography, access to the internet, an e-mail address, and a digital camera. If you are interested or need more information, please contact



Eighth grade girls gather every Wednesday morning to spend time with God. This bible study is a time of fellowship and in depth conversation about God’s word. We spend time each week looking at scripture as we walk though a book of the New Testament. Reading through books such as Philippians and James we have had conversations that touch on multiple facets of God and who he is in our lives. Come grow and be renewed weekly in your faith at our bible study. For more information, contact Allison Petersen at



Animation Club for Middle School students meets every Wednesday morning in the computer lab. The students have the opportunity to create their own animations in two very different computer animation programs, Alice and Pivot. There is a great exchange of ideas as students learn from each other through sharing their animations, as well as sharing any problems they encounter, and the solutions. For more information, please contact faculty sponsor

Boy Scouts of America Troop 554 was founded in 2006 at Whitefield Academy, and serves the Covered Bridge District of the Atlanta Area Council. We have Scouts from different schools, faiths, and backgrounds, and are very active in local and citywide activities and services. Our programs include weekly troop meetings, extended summer camping, high adventure treks, and monthly outdoor activities. Troop 554 Scouts are highly visible leaders in their schools and communities with extensive involvement in athletics, the arts and community service projects. Being a Scout in Troop 554 is an honor and a privilege which should not be taken for granted. Things don't just happen. Trite but true, what we get out of our program depends on what we put into it. Every Scout in our troop is proud to be here and does his part to help keep our troop productive and worthwhile. We want you here because you want to be here (not because someone else thinks it's a good idea). For more information about Troop 554, please contact Sammy Powell, Troop 554 Committee Chairman at , or by phone at 678-458-3591. Visit Troop 554 on the web at www.whitefieldtroop554.org.
