Maifest
Maifest is an exuberant German celebration that takes place in May to welcome the onset of spring. Communities come together for lively outdoor festivities featuring music, dancing, and traditional German cuisine. The event serves as a joyful expression of the seasonal transition, fostering a sense of camaraderie and community spirit. It's a time for people to embrace the outdoors, share in the merriment, and revel in the renewal of nature.
GAPP Exchange Program
The German American Partnership Program, GAPP, has allowed us to travel to our sister school in Cologne, Germany next summer. GAPP is a widely accredited exchange program, characterized by the State Department as, "an important part of citizen diplomacy efforts of the United States."
Oktoberfest
Clements Oktoberfest is our version of the Southern German tradition. Taking place in September, Oktoberfest is a vibrant celebration of Bavarian culture, featuring a vast selection of traditional German beers, delicious food, and lively music. In America we must forgo some of the aspects of traditional Oktoberfest but it's still a great time.
Bake Off
Most years we hold a bake-off with Travis German Club at Travis High School. Bake off information for this year is coming soon.
