At South Broward High School, Marine Magnet students are offered a variety of marine related clubs and extra curricular activities. The most common and popular  one is Shark Club. This club gives student the opportunity to get face to face with creatures that they would not have the opportunity to otherwise and learn, hands on, what shark research is really like. Not only do the kids get to catch the sharks, they tag them and take a muscle biopsy which is then grought to the University of Miami for further testing.

The South Florida Student Shark Program (SFSSP) is a program being implemented with South Broward High School students through trips with students from University of Miami. The program consists of five main activities: students going out into the South Florida watershed to study the behaviors, ecology and population dynamics of Floridian shark species; students teaching other students about the ecology and history of the South Florida watershed and the shark species found there; students providing volunteer hours to various parks in the South Florida watershed; students presenting at schools and community meetings to foster an increased shark awareness; and students presenting at a scientific conferences and publishing their work in refereed journals to disseminate the scientific results of the program. With the help of UM, South Broward students are being taught the importance of research and how to get the knowledge they have gained out to the public.
