Clubs enhance the students' educational experience at PRISMS by taking their personal interests and engaging them in leadership skills and teamwork. Clubs here are student-led and give our young people the freedom to establish interest-based groups and opportunities outside the classroom to impact the community through motivating and inspiring people. Faculty members provide oversight and mentoring to the clubs and their leaders. Most clubs meet Tuesdays through Fridays; some clubs meet after school or during the weekends.

PRISMS offers a wide variety of after-school athletic activities to appeal to its diverse student body. Offerings include competitive varsity soccer, volleyball, and basketball teams that compete against local schools, such as Lawrenceville School and Princeton Day School. Additionally, the school has intramural sports, including Ultimate Frisbee, badminton, cycling, tennis, and running for those students who prefer not to play competitively. Some students choose to work out at the local YMCA, and the school supports them by offering transportation to and from the facility, which is just a short drive from campus. In short, we try to make sure that every student, regardless of their ability and fitness level, can participate in athletics and feel good about themselves.
There are other opportunities for students to get exercise and stay active. Students can canoe and kayak on the D&R Canal, go hiking on the weekends in the Sourlands, play golf at a nearby club, and participate in the Princeton half marathon.
Finally, for those students who are already involved with a sport PRISMS does not support, they are welcome to do that in the afternoon instead. Over the years, we have had students who fence, swim, play hockey, and many more.
