Interested in getting weekly Crumbl Cookies or learning more about mental health? Sage Creek High School has a variety of clubs where students can participate. Throughout the week of Oct. 14 to Oct. 18, ASB hosted club rush on the grassy field. Various clubs were displayed with beautifully decorated posters and activities.
A few examples are Just Serve, the newly-established Psychology Club, the Crumbl Cookie Club and Speech and Debate. Bobcats were offered the opportunity to learn about joining and getting involved with these clubs.
Delilah Reyes the President and Sterling Cooper the Vice President are both sophomores of the Psychology Club. Promoting mental health around campus and learning coping mechanisms are also taught in this club. Students will learn about the history of psychology and its previous studies in the past.
Reyes says that “psychology club is good for students because it can teach us more about ourselves and how we can deal with emotional stresses of daily life.”
She also says that students can “learn the science behind it which can be very valuable. It is a good feature to add to a college application.” Reyes found her love for psychology by researching studies in English classes and taking college classes on it. She has an interest in child development within psychology in the future years.
The goals of the Psychology Club are to equip students with knowledge and resources in psychology; they also hope to create a supporting environment around campus year-long.
For those intrigued by Crumbl Cookies, Sage Creek now has the option for students to try out different flavors of cookies and participate in bake sales. One of the purposes of this club is for students to come together and talk about their interest in sweets and creativity. Abe Ibañez, a Junior at Sage Creek, says “joining a club is a great way to get involved and experience new opportunities.”
There are also clubs like the Black Student Union, Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlán (MEChA) and the Asian Student Union. They provide a welcoming environment where people of color and others can discuss challenges in this generation. Historical teachings are also shared during meetings, and students are greeted with acceptance and inclusiveness.
Nevaeh Walton, a sophomore at Sage Creek, is excited to start the year as President of the Black Student Union. As a freshman she was a member and attended weekly meetings. Meetings occur almost every Thursday during lunch.
Walton would recommend this club to those who are interested in learning about the deep history of the black community.
She said that “at meetings, students might play games about black history” and “get to know each other.” Near the end of the trimester, members will watch a movie and have a snack party.
Whether Bobcats want to join 5 clubs or 1, the overall experience of Club Rush is one to remember. Students of any grade have the opportunity to join whichever club they desire. Even though Club Rush is over most clubs are flexible with new members joining after.
Participating in Sage Creeks Club Rush is a great way for students to get involved and learn new things.
