We believe that after-school activities are an integral part of the total education program of our students.
Designed to enhance and complement our academic program, the activities program encourages students to achieve a manageable balance of co-curricular and academic activities. The CAC after-school activities provide students with the opportunity to explore new areas of interest, enhance existing skills, and develop social skills in a safe, familiar and supportive environment. We offer a broad range of activities in an effort to reach out to the varied interests and talents of our students.

With the goal of providing opportunities for as many students as possible, activity choices in the high school range from theater performances to Green Team Club to student government. In the elementary school, students choose from a variety of after-school activities, while the middle school offers lunchtime and after-school intramurals and an extensive athletics program.

CAC participates in the top worldwide Model United Nations conference outside of Egypt, The Hague Model United Nations (THIMUN), and hosts CAC's own longstanding Cairo American College Model United Nations conference (CACMUN) each year. We are also members of the International Schools Theater Association (ISTA), and the Association for Music in International Schools (AMIS). These organizations provide festivals and tournaments outside of Egypt, in which our students participate. We hope that in setting out to explore new possibilities, students will develop and enhance their interpersonal and organizational skills and develop life skills which they will carry with them throughout their lives.
