Students partake in a variety of clubs at the high school level, including competitive FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC )robotics, Science Fair, Model UN (United Nations) and Debate teams.

Each year, some students that have presented exemplary work are chosen by CSEF to compete in the International Science and Engineering Fair Aerospace was originally an exclusively half-day program operating as GHAMAS and is now solely a full-day program operating as The Academy of Aerospace and Engineering.

When the school was a half day program, ninth and tenth-grade students took three foundation math (Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, Pre-calculus, or higher) and science (Physics, Earth Science, Biology, and Chemistry) courses in the morning, followed by humanities and other classes at their sending district's high school or with the full-day program.

Half-day juniors and seniors take these humanities at their home schools during the morning and join the Aerospace juniors and seniors for up to four advanced elective courses in the afternoon, such as Molecular and Cellular Biology, Anatomy, Zoology, or Astronomy, along with Advanced Placement curricula.
