Being a part of school through clubs is a great idea to get ahead to have fun with new people for the new school year. Here are some clubs North has to offer
Fellowship of Christian Athletes
Fellowship of Christian athletes FCA is a club devoted to helping teenagers get closer to God. The sponsors, Science Teacher Dawn Hahn and FACS Teacher Sara White, hold meetings Thursdays from 6-7:30 p.m. twice a month. Students play a big role in leading the club’s activities. FCA’s first meeting takes place the month of August which is the Fall Kick-Off. The Fall Kick-Off is a way for people interested in joining to check out what FCA is like. It’s a barbecue with food for anyone who wants to show up. FCA is a part of many events throughout the year, but their biggest event is FCA Night at Busch Stadium during second semester. For information on any of the
“I think in my opinion, FCA is a place where people with the same kind of belief can come together as one,” senior Bailey Marek said. “My favorite part is just seeing others who have the same belief stand up for it.”
Epsilon beta Epsilon Beta is a club for students interested in reading and serving in the Learning Commons. This includes helping serve coffee on Coffee Fridays, helping out at Trick-or-Treat Street and helping lead book discussions. Media Specialists Angie Davis and Tara Willen sponsor this club.

For more information, students can visit the Epsilon Beta page on the Learning Commons website or talk to Davis or Willen in the FHN Learning Commons.(brief by michal basford)

deca DECA is a co-curricular club that reaches out to students and teaches marketing and management skills to help them succeed in the business world. This club helps students learn interviewing skills, how to network and prepares them for the real world. This club sponsors the annual DECA Jump-Off and also sells cookies every day in the business hallway. (brief by brianna gonzalez)

Ecology Club Ecology clubs meets every other Thursday after school in Joe Brocksmith’s room to plan for upcoming events such as float trips, trash pick-ups, campus beautification and caving. Their main goal is to get in touch with nature and increase environmental awareness, especially with youth. They are in need of members and are student oriented. (brief by sami schmid) “I like seeing kids and getting kids involved with and being appreciative of the outdoors,” sponsor Brocksmith said. “I think it’s important for kids to spend more time outdoors.” Ecology Club

(brief by sami schmid) “The atmosphere is really fun and the people are very supportive,” sophomore Caitlind Walker said. Speech and Debate
We Are All Knights We Are All Knights is a club that gets students who receive special education together with other students at North to meet new people and promote friendships between students. During meetings every other Thursday, club members make crafts together, eat items they bake and work on ways to raise money for charity.

a Word of Advice
2015 graduates share their past experiences through high school and their best advice for next year’s students in each grade to have a good year
“Senior year can be stressful: managing coursework, extracurricular activities, applying to colleges, applying for scholarships, working, being a son or daughter. Working BY RISA TAKENAKA on their post high school risatakenaka97@gmail.com • @Ricericebaby143 plans early can decrease The first day at a new school is a little nerve the stress and increase wracking. I mean come on, no matter how many their joy.” times you tell yourself that you won’t go to the wrong class, get lost in the hallways, or make it - Lisa Woodrum, Counselor to class on time, there’s a little doubt in the back of your head. If you have watched High School Musical or Mean Girls, you have a good idea of what high school is like, right? Wrong. Believe it or not, there is no breaking out in dances on lunch tables during lunches, or cliques of girls who dress in pink head to toe. Give it a few days, and you’ll see. But don’t worry, these halls and classrooms will be familiar before you know it. A few weeks from now, you will be laughing about how you “Take advantage of the couldn’t make it around the school without asking four years that you have for help. because before you know The transition from middle school to high school it, they’re over. You want may seem drastic now, but it is crazy how much to make sure you can take you will grow to adapt to this new thing called with you everything that “freshman year.” Over the next few months, the 6 you can.” a.m. alarms will slowly become a routine, you will be juggling a good balance between homework - Dawn Hahn, Science and friends, and by the end of the semester, you teacher will have been able to say you’ve been to your first high school dance. But one helpful tip: if
Freshmen: Don’t be scared things become overwhelming, which they will, don’t be afraid to ask to help. The teachers, counselors, and upperclassmen were once freshman, too. They will be glad to give you a hand if you need it. Try your best in every class, but don’t stress about the small things, and try not to get carried away worrying about all the things you can’t change. The next four years are really what you make them, so get involved with whatever you’re interested in. Whether it’s a sport, a club or both, there’s always room to try something new and have fun. You’ve heard it a million times, and chances are, you’ll hear it a few more times: high school flies by. The coming days spent in classrooms will seem to drone on, but the weeks and months will go by in a blink. Before you know it, you will be a senior, looking back in disbelief of how fast it all passed by. So make the most of your time here. Focus on your grades. Get involved. But most importantly, don’t forget to have fun.
sophomores: Don’t settle in just yet BY ALEX SHANNON

If there is one thing that I can’t stress enough, it is not to get too comfortable with how things are for you right now. Don’t feel locked into the clubs and activities that you did last year. There’s one thing that will always apply to you in high school, don’t be afraid to try new things. If you weren’t involved with a club or activity last year but it looked kind of cool, don’t be afraid to go for it. If you didn’t like one of the clubs or activities that you did last year then don’t be afraid to do something different this year. It’s better to try something out and to hate it than it is to completely miss out on it. At the very least you will make new friends and find something out about yourself. Sophomore year can seem like one of the hardest times to try new
things since there are going to be people that have already been involved in the things you are trying to get involved in. However, these people are going to be excited to welcome you aboard. So whether it’s art club, the football team, or the robotics club don’t be afraid to try something new this year and don’t be afraid of any sort of stigmas that go with them, we don’t live in the movie screen. And if you really don’t like any of the clubs at our school, you can always make your own. Out of the 1800 kids that go to this school there’s bound to be a couple of them with interests that are similar to your’s. Plus, there’s always going to be teachers that will be happy to support you. So go have fun with sophomore year while it lasts.

“Always know that your teachers are here to help you and that they’re a great resource. Be sure to get involved in some kind of activity, club, or sport that interests you. That lets you meet new people with similar interests and make new friends.”
juniors: over the hill BY STONE BIRKNER
jamiehetlage3251@gmail.com • @jammnicole
You are over the hill. You are no longer underclassmen. This is when everything starts to speed up. Before you get to hit that year of your lasts in senior year focus on this year. Your future can still wait. This is one of the most stressful years in academics but this is when your class at school starts to bond and become closer. Drop the drama that still lingers from middle school and your first years of high school. Be comfortable with yourself and everyone around you. This is a fun time of your life. Don’t waste your year not getting along with the people who you are going to
experience prom, jobs, sports, and then finally graduation with. School is a fun place to be when everyone is friendly to each other. Don’t live your life through Twitter and Instagram. Finish your homework and then go out with your friends. The best memories start now and when graduation comes around you will look back and remember how far you have come from just this moment. Have fun and be yourself because that’s who you are going to be for the rest of your life get your practice now.
- Chip Crow, Government teacher
“Get involved and work hard this year. Give it your best effort. Don’t be shy about reaching out to meet your counselor and ask your teachers for help.”
SENIORS: CROSS THE FINISH LINE BY DANIEL BODDEN
- Mary Kerr-Grant, Counselor
daniel.bodden21@gmail.com • @danbodden
Senior year is like a victory lap. A victory lap where the car starts to run out of gas and then you have to push it across the rest of the way. Another thing about senior year: everyone will ask you where you’re going to college and what your major will be and what you’re going to do with your life and how much money you’ll make and when you’ll get married and where you’ll live and how many kids you’ll have and if you’ll have pets and what their names will be and if you can look into your crystal ball and tell them their fortune… Ok, that may be a bit dramatic, but you get the point. Senioritis is real and every adult on Earth is waiting around every corner ready to incite panic at all the worst moments possible. Don’t let that scare you. You’ve made it to senior year; you’ll make it to the end. Just know that millions of people go through this process every year nationwide and you are certainly not the first to have no idea what you want to do next. Take small steps as
you dive into the wonderful world of college applications and don’t let yourself get caught up in knowing everything you ever want to do right now. Seriously, nobody knows. Secondly, don’t fall into the trap of only doing what’s “good enough” and figuring out what “doesn’t matter” anymore. You’re going to want to look back at the end of the year and be proud of what you accomplished. Don’t let yourself accomplish so much in 12 years just to have the last one ruin the scholarship you wanted or damage the reputation you’ve built. Senioritis inflicts every student with apathy, but the cure is not sacrificing your ambition and making up your mind that you will meet your goals regardless of your feelings. Don’t settle for just coasting to the end of your countdown to the last day. Put the car in drive and take advantage of opportunities, make memories with friends and finish what you started. Panic about the future and an overwhelming laziness are the two biggest obstacles that stand in the way. Decide now that you won’t let them.
“Make sure you know where all your classes are. You need to know the building and make sure you’re not running around in the math department when you’re supposed to be down by the gym. It can help make sure you’re not late to class, which makes you more confident.” - Charles Lott, Math teacher

THE LOWER LEVEL
Butterfly Hallway These stairs lead you straight into the mess of the butterfly hallway.
TO THE BUSES At the end of the day, these stairs fill up in the rush to get home. If you plan on using these stairs, make sure you are going with the flow of the crowd.
DECA COOKIE SALES Most mornings, DECA sells fresh-baked Otis Spunkemeyer Cookies. For just $1, indulge with two gooey, chocolate chip cookies.
CULTURED CORRIDOR This hallway is where you can often find people dancing, singing or practicing lines.
STAIRCASE to the Math Hallway Avoid these stairs throughout the day if timeliness is a priority for you. These stairs lead straight into the Butterfly Hallway and fill up quickly.
Big GYM The Big Gym is the place where the pep assemblies happen. Take a gym class or practice or show your spirit at a pep assembly.
MATH Hallway This hallway is where all of you math classes will be. This hallway is also known to be very cold, so bring a jacket.
THE UPPER LEVEL
THE MAIN LEVEL HIDDEN PLACES Don’t let the room numbers confuse you, the science hallway is situated between the art hallway and the Commons.
ART HALLWAY Add a little culture to your day by passing through this hallway. Check out some amazing sculptures or paintings from the artists of FHN.
FIND YOUR WAY This is the place to be if you need any information about the A+ Program or classes, or if you just need to talk to someone. Don’t be afraid of the guidance counselors; they don’t bite.
SENIOR COURTYARD This is just another perk of being a senior. When it’s warm, seniors are able to enjoy their lunch around the outdoor tables.
SNACK TABLE

Although crowded during lunches, this hallway is the place to get your snack on. The snack table provides a variety of sweets and chips to satisfy any craving but closes when lunch ends. The money raised from the snack table goes to the All-Knighter fund.
LEARNING COMMONS
THE COMMONS
In the center of the school, the Commons is the place to grab some lunch and socialize with your friends. On Wednesday afternoons, this is where people wait for activities until 2:20.
CLUBBIN IN COM 1
Many clubs hold their meetings in this large classroom, located in the Commons. Clubs such as Speech and Debate and National Honor Society met here.
BUTTERFLY HALLWAY
During passing period, avoid this hallway at all costs. Traffic turns into a stand still making it nearly impossible to get to classes on time.
LEARNING COMMONS
Formerly known as the library, this quiet, techfriendly environment is great for studying. With plenty of books and computers, the Learning Commons has all of the resources needed to be a successful student.
