Rescheduled Club Day at NRHS a Huge Hit: Hear from Club Representatives

By Staff

Friday, October 6 was Club Day at NRHS. Dozens of clubs set up tables around the rotunda and advertised to get more members. All freshmen came with their history classes and had the opportunity to learn more about different student organizations. Here is some information shared by several club representatives:

“Junior State of America is a debate and politics club. We are one of many JSA clubs across the nation. We debate serious topics, like abortion and Black Lives Matter, and fun subjects, like ‘Would you rather be a bear or a skunk?’ We also go to conventions; some are based in New York and others are in nearby states. JSA has a really fun vibe full of welcoming people.” - Katalina Pimienta, President of JSA
