Clubs
This club teaches students about different styles of drumming such as African, Caribbean, and Brazilian. The students actually become musicians who drum together in a "drum circle." They learn about culture, rhythm, and the tradition of this genre of music. They learn about musicians in this realm and become more interactive and social with their peers through the music which provides a social and expressive outlet. They also incorporate the original styles of drumming into the current hip hop culture.
LGBT
LGBT is a club that creates a sense of community and offers students a safe haven for self-expression. The group also exists to help inform the student body about matters of equality. Gathering as a club enables members to find their voices and to accept themselves. They have the opportunity to talk to one another and share ideas and experiences while learning coping mechanisms. They learn how to reach out to those who are less accepting in a positive manner. This club enables the students to take pride in who they are and stay positive and healthy which has a long-term positive impact on their lives and the lives of those around them.
