In the dynamic landscape of middle school, the significance of social clubs cannot be understated. These extracurricular activities play a vital role in shaping the experiences and development of pre-adolescents, fostering social skills, building confidence, and creating lifelong bonds. Middle school can be a challenging period for many students and social clubs can offer a supportive, inclusive environment where they can thrive.
Many club activities are offered at Benton Community Schools, the latest addition being “The Breakfast Club”. Clubs are led by teachers who serve as mentors and role models. These teachers provide guidance, support and encouragement to students. The goals of many social clubs is to offer guidance through the tumultuous years of middle and also help students navigate challenges both inside and outside of the classroom.
