NAHS Clubs and Organizations

by Joey Cook

With the start of the new school year, students around North Attleboro High School are looking to get involved in various sports, clubs and organizations.

NAHS offers a variety of clubs and organizations to help every student get involved. Although North Attleboro may be known for athletics, it offers a lot more than sports.

Students have the option to join a club that meets either during or after school. Some of the most known clubs around North Attleboro High include the Marching/Jazz band, Model Senate, SCAR (Student Coalition Against Racism), and Theatre Company. These are available to any interested student.

Senior Nick Silva said, “These clubs and organizations are a great thing for North Attleboro. It’s a way to get every student involved without having to be necessarily an athlete and play a sport.”

Some of the most influential student leaders in the school are the class officers. Each class elects four representatives who are trusted with decision making and fundraising.

“Being a class officer feels great,” said Senior Treasurer Nick Pedro. “It’s a great way to get involved and go about your class ideas.”

You don’t have to be an elected officer to make a difference within the school. Other organizations include Best Pals, National Honor Society, Rocket’s Corner School Store and Student Council.
