Student Clubs

Book Club is a chill space to hang out and talk about books, especially everyone's favorite. At meetings, members talk about books they’ve read and enjoyed, ones they haven’t enjoyed, and there’s plenty of time for book recommendations. Members may also read the same books at the same time and discuss, but most often everyone is on their own page and reading their own books!

The Creative Writing Club is a space for people who enjoy writing to come together and talk about their work. Or at least get together and pretend that we all write. The Club encourages meaningful discussion of creative writing in all forms, from literature to film and television. In our meetings, we put forth opportunities for recreational writing, such as competitions, challenges, and local publishing spaces. Our club is a way for students to embrace and share different forms of writing, and have some fun in the process.

The SHHS Fishing Club is for students who enjoy, love, or want to learn about fishing, but it’s also so much more! Each member in our club brings something special to the table. Everyone gets along, has fun together, shares crazy fishing stories, or just crazy stories. So, above simply being a group of people who like to fish, we are a group of friends (who like to fish). And remember, “DON'T FALL UP HILL”.

Bonjour! The French Club is an active group of students that celebrates and teaches French culture with fun activities on the first Tuesday of every month! We are the only club that celebrates foreign cultures and languages. Club meetings consist of celebrating holidays as they do in France, like L’Epiphany with a traditional French galette cake. We also try to incorporate tastings to get our members familiar with French cuisine! We strive to promote diversity and inclusion and help people to become more comfortable with foreign languages.

GSA stands for “Gender and Sexuality Alliance.” GSA’s mission is to promote LGBTQIA+ acceptance and support LGBTQIA+ students on campus. We meet every Thursday in “the Closet,” a side room in Mrs. Luhn’s classroom, to talk about how to create more inclusivity in our community. GSA has worked with LGBTQ Connection in Napa to increase LGBTQIA+ presence and representation in St. Helena.

Service Above Self is the motto of Interact. Interact is based around community service, which includes food drives, trail work, clothing drives, and serving and setting up for local events. More than that, it’s a relaxed environment where volunteering is driven by wanting to do it and being able to do it. Some notable moments from Interact’s past years include collecting 13 barrels of food for the annual food drive, with “apocalypse-style chocolate milk and powdered soup,” courtesy of the St. Helena Fire Department. We can’t talk about Interact without talking about the Rotary Club. Rotary is an organization of community members whose goal is to make the community a healthier place to live. As an extension of Rotary, Interact is that tailored to young people. Tradition is another keep Interact component, including monthly pizza, raffles for Giugni’s sandwiches, and repping with amazing t-shirts.
