Though we are almost halfway through the semester, there are still clubs that are accepting new members! Here I have featured 3 more clubs! If you have any questions, make sure to contact the teachers listed below!

Typical Club Activities:

• Determine the Homecoming theme and decorate the freshmen hallway according to that theme

• Plan, organize, and stay within the designated budget for events being planned

• Fund-raise for future events

• Remotely, they are brainstorming activities and themes for dances and Spirit Weeks and different fundraising opportunities

NOTE: Students will continue on with their sponsors year after year; for example, those who are in Freshmen Class Council this year have the option to be a part of Sophomore Class Council next year and so on. For example, Prom, Homecoming, and Senior Class Luncheon are some of the major events planned by Junior and Senior Class Council members.

How Often They Meet:

Every other Tuesday @3:15 pm

Typical Club Activities:

• Host Peanut Days (3rd week of September) when they raise about $4,000 a year to help kids in our community with Kiwanis

• Host trick-or-treat for UNICEF with the grammar school students when they raise up to $2,500

• Set up haunted houses in the bathrooms and work the Halloween Festival in the gym at the Civic Center on Halloween

• Decorate the PACCT HOUSE (Home of the Autistic Boys) in River Grove for Christmas

• Remotely, each month Key Club members were given a task to help their communities; so far, they have reached out in their communities to help neighbors, written letters to senior citizens at a nursing home, and collected canned goods and toiletries for the food pantry of Elmwood Park and Leyden Township

How Often They Meet:

Once a month on Tuesdays @6:30pm

Typical Club Activities:

• Snowball plans Snowflake Day, where Snowball members travel to the middle school for a fun day of planned activities. These activities educate middle school students about leading a healthy lifestyle

• Snowball plans lock-in, where students stay at school from 1PM to 7AM the next day to spend a night of fun with their friends. Activities range from scavenger hunts and talent shows to watching movies with friends

• Plan and play games to reinforce team building skills

• Remotely, each month, they select a theme, like Red Ribbon Week and World Kindness Day. These themes relate to living a healthy lifestyle instead of resorting to things like alcohol and drugs. Members are separated into breakout rooms during virual meetings to discuss these theme and play games that pertain to the topic being focused on. Games focus on everyone working together and using their minds to work as one.

How Often They Meet:

Once or twice a month on Wednesdays @7:00 pm
