This past Wednesday, Sentinel hosted its annual “Club Day”, a lunchtime event where school clubs have a booth to sign up new members and kickstart their club activities for the school year. As students walked around the gym, there was a palpable energy as club leaders eagerly shared their club activities and students enthusiastically signed up for clubs that interested them. With so many clubs in the school, there really is a club for everyone. Whether you are passionate about animals or love to learn new languages, it’s easy to find a club that relates to something you like or are interested in. Joining a club at Sentinel is a great way to meet people who have similar interests, develop life skills like problem solving and team work, learn more about the field you are interested in, and make your high school experience more fun. For more reasons to join a club, check out the article we did here about reasons to join a club at Sentinel!
