Below are 5 clubs randomly chosen and a brief update and description on what they are and what they are involved with.
Speech and Debate
At their competition on Jan. 8, the Speech and Debate team won 8 rounds. The team also showed off their talents in front of students at North during their English classes on Jan. 6.
“Showing 200 students what we do on weekends was a great success,” Coach Theresa Maher said.
The team members have been learning a lot about current events and having a great time using that information for their entertainment. They hope to use this information to win their competition on Jan. 22.

Spectra
As the new semester begins, Spectra classes will be working to finish honors projects. Students involved in Spectra are ones who excel in learning and creativity. Spectra is considered an elective course, this means new students and changes are always coming in and out of the Spectra class¬room. Jon Travis, the Spectra teacher, is always trying to keep the program going strong.
“I’d like to get more kids involved,” Travis said. “Eventually, I hope we could get a mentor-ship and a shadowing program started.”
