Activities
Dulaney hosts more than 70 different clubs and organizations for its students. Aside from dances and other events, the school offers many extra curricular activities in which pupils may participate, from plays to helping others to sports. Among the clubs are: Peer Tutors, Dulanians, Key Club, Sports Teams, and the National Honor Society. The Peer Tutors help students who have trouble in a wide array of subjects, usually for service hours or National Honor Society points. The Dulanians help adjust incoming 9th graders to the school, and show them the way at orientations, and other events. The Key Club is a service oriented club that meets weekly, and hosts many service opportunities during the year. Dulaney also offers an extensive theatrical program, which performs yearly plays as well as musicals. Dulaney students are also later presented announcements through a system that very few schools have. First audio announcements are given over the PA system; after the students learn a few things in the class specifically taken for this purpose and have had time to prepare, they show the announcements on a news program called "Live on 5 News". Dulaney also has a Vex Robotics team, with the FIRST Robotics team eventually falling out of favour; partially due to founder and mentor, Brian Bruneau, stepping down after seven years.

Famous quotes containing the word activities:
“As life developed, I faced each problem as it came along. As my activities and work broadened and reached out, I never tried to shirk. I tried never to evade an issue. When I found I had something to do—I just did it.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
“That is the real pivot of all bourgeois consciousness in all countries: fear and hate of the instinctive, intuitional, procreative body in man or woman. But of course this fear and hate had to take on a righteous appearance, so it became moral, said that the instincts, intuitions and all the activities of the procreative body were evil, and promised a reward for their suppression. That is the great clue to bourgeois psychology: the reward business.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“The most remarkable aspect of the transition we are living through is not so much the passage from want to affluence as the passage from labor to leisure.... Leisure contains the future, it is the new horizon.... The prospect then is one of unremitting labor to bequeath to future generations a chance of founding a society of leisure that will overcome the demands and compulsions of productive labor so that time may be devoted to creative activities or simply to pleasure and happiness.”
—Henri Lefebvre (b. 1901)
