To help the student body become more involved in school, Nardin offers a plethora of clubs for students to learn about subjects they cannot take a specific class on and to offer an opportunity for students to meet more people. Clubs create a feeling of belonging among students, helping them to feel like a part of the community. Though a student may enjoy the club they are currently in, it could be a good idea to explore the variety of clubs Nardin has to offer by considering trying out a new club.
Do you like wearing jewelry but not spending money on it? Have you ever been searching for the perfect bracelet but none seem to stick out to you? The solution to these problems could be Jewelry Club. According to Señora Puntoriero, “From earrings to necklaces to friendship bracelets to charms, the possibilities are endless.” Jewelry Club only costs 5 dollars, which provides for all the different materials you may need to make a piece of jewelry.
Did the Jewelry Club not stick out to you? Consider learning about different cultures and religions with Nardin Religious Community Club, which is more commonly called Jewish Club among Nardin students. Students enjoy eating culturally significant foods, reading articles, and informing their classmates about all religious holidays. According to Phoebe Fox, “Jewish Club is a great way to learn about religion in fun ways like cultural activities.”
Do you want to strengthen your public speaking and debating skills? Does learning about foreign countries intrigue you? Give thought to joining Model United Nations. Students enrolled in Model UN speak up for their assigned country to ultimately come to a consensus on how to solve a given real world problem.
Avoid sitting in a chair all day by joining Drama Club. Drama Club offers an opportunity for Nardin students to express their creativity through dancing and singing, However, Drama Club is not limited to only stereotypical theater activities. Students enrolled in Drama Club also do a lot of production work like prop making and marketing of upcoming productions. According to Ms. Kiener, “Drama club is not just for singers and dancers, but for anyone who has a passion for the dramatic arts.”
This year, make sure to take advantage of all the great clubs that Nardin has to offer. Maybe you will find a brand new interest or meet someone new!
