Varsity Club
The Varsity Club promotes school spirit and encourages good play and sportsmanship. Any boy or girl who has earned a varsity letter in athletics is eligible for membership. We meet once a week throughout the year to plan various activities. Activities include American Red Cross blood drives, field days and Dr. Seuss days at the elementary schools, and other activities to raise school spirit. The club also provides seniors with awards and scholarships as symbols of sportsmanship, spirit, initiative, and self-sacrifice that must be embodied in those who earn a varsity letter. The club meets Friday mornings at 7:30 in the gym.
