CLUBS ACTIVE IN MANY ASPECTS All types of clubs, especially vocational and academic, were very busy during activity period and after school. One club that was particularly busy was the Future Business Leaders of America. During FBLA, members of the club gave away lollipops, participated in the Vocational Breakfast, had an FBLA breakfast, and honored the Basketball team with a cake at the pep rally. Also, the club planned to participate in the Spring Regional FBLA meeting at Norfolk State University. Another very active club was the Distributive Education Clubs of America. Fund raising activities dominated the clubs time, but in addition, members were among the most active in the school and community. They delivered food to a needy family for Thanksgiving; gave cards and ornaments to patients at Autumn Care Nursing Home; delivered plants to the mayor, the superintendent of schools, and to Mrs. Bailey and Mr. Jones; and participated and placed in the District 10 DECA Competition in March. The Future Farmers of America, like FBLA and DECA, also participate in competitions. Contests include a Forestry Judging Contest, a Mechanics Judging Contest, and other Peanut Federation Contests. The FFA sold citrus fruit with the band in December, too. The National Honor Society chapter, while not as active as FBLA, DECA, and FFA had its share of traditional activities. They sponsored the annual Thanksgiving assembly where seven new members were tapped in and new officers were sworn in. The chapter also sponsored two members for National Honor Society scholarships. A new organization to students was the WHRO academic team. After the members competed for places on the team last spring, they practiced diligently and prepared to compete against other Tidewater teams. Our team defeated Peninsula Catholic High School, York High School, and was finally defeated in the third round by Lake Taylor High School. In the spring, Senior members helped in the elimination rounds to choose the 1983-84 team. Honor Society left to right: Front Row—Julie Ryder, Kim Holly, Kelly Carter, Sherry Ruden.

SERVICE CLUBS DO IT RIGHT! Service clubs played a major role in student activities. During Coed-Hi-Y meetings in the evenings, members made honesty signs for the school. In addition, the club sold pocket calendars for fund raising in the fall. Peer Facilitators, with bi-monthly training sessions, did many things in the school and community. The small group tutored before mid-term exams, offered friendly advice in the Peanut Picker, and had a food drive for Easter. Also, the Peer Facilitators planned an alcohol awareness film “The Last Prom” to be shown in May. The Interact Club, affiliated with the Suffolk Rotary Club, met with the other Interact chapters in Suffolk. Each school club went to the Rotary Club once every six weeks to enjoy lunch and a guest speaker, and the club also challenged the Rotary Club to a basketball game. The Teachers’ Aide club assisted teachers, administrators, and custodians. During March, the club even put up bulletin boards assigned to teachers. One of the aides helped Mr. Jones each day during her study hall. So, the Teachers’ Aides should have been called simply the “Aides!” CLUBS 19
