Extracurricular Activities
The extracurricular activities offered at Novi High School are many and varied due to the school's large size. There are chapters of national organizations, such as the National Honor Society, and clubs founded by Novi students, such as Chess Club. The majority of clubs have a primarily social or recreational purpose, but some are academically-inclined, such as quiz bowl and math club. The usual range of athletic and music organizations are there for students to join, in addition to Novi's other clubs. The school also organizes several annual school plays and musical.
Novi High School teams currently compete in Division I, the division designated for the largest schools. Originally founded in 1963, Novi became a member of the Southeastern Conference in 1980. In 1982, Novi joined the Kensington Valley Conference. Since 2008, Novi has participated in the newly formed Kensington Lakes Activities Association, a merger of the current KVC and Western Lakes Activities Association along with some other schools, in the majority of interscholastic sports and activities although some, notably the robotics, drumline, and quiz bowl teams, compete either independently or in other leagues.

Famous quotes containing the word activities:
“Both gossip and joking are intrinsically valuable activities. Both are essentially social activities that strengthen interpersonal bonds—we do not tell jokes and gossip to ourselves. As popular activities that evade social restrictions, they often refer to topics that are inaccessible to serious public discussion. Gossip and joking often appear together: when we gossip we usually tell jokes and when we are joking we often gossip as well.”
—Aaron Ben-Ze’Ev, Israeli philosopher. “The Vindication of Gossip,” Good Gossip, University Press of Kansas (1994)
