At the beginning of each semester there is a club rush in which each club in the school has a table and encourages other students to become involved in the community and the school by joining the club. Club rush has a variety of clubs for students to join based on their interests. The clubs include: Cool 2 be Kind, Best Buddies, Be a hero, Become a donor, Key Club, Rugby Club, Ping Pong Club and Interact. Club rush is packed with students from every grade looking for a group to join.

– What position do you play in the club?
co-president
– What made you want to join the club?
I wanted to be in the club because i thought that i could help make an impact in people’s lives for the better. it was a way for me to love on people and just build relationships with people no matter their situation, or religious beliefs.
– Is it an in school club or is it an outside club too?
We typically only meet at school, except for a couple of dates but we also do things outside of the school day like going to different sporting events and supporting SCHS sports teams, we also choose a couple teams each season to give either goodie bags to or bottles of gatorade
– What is the purpose of the club?
The purpose of the club is to hang out, eat some pizza, play some games, and talk about God’s immense love. What we desire most is that anyone would feel free and welcome to join us and just feel known by other students. The purpose is to build relationships, get to know one another, and love each other-despite our differences. Whether we have different favorite sports team or opposing views about God I hope anyone would know that I just wanna get to know people for who they truly are, because people are awesome.

I definitely encourage people to join Be a hero, become a donor. The experience is unbelievable, getting to see lives being saved by other people. The best part about it is that these people don’t even know who they’re saving; they’re complete strangers, but that doesn’t make a difference to them.
