Although we are affiliated with Irvington ITA, club membership is available for anyone who wants to join, even over the school year. There are no requirements for applying to become a club member.
We hold officer applications twice a year to invite passionate and dedicated students to join club leadership. Officer applications include a separate application process followed by an interview.
It depends on how many activities you participate in. While most members spend around 1-3 hours per week on club activities, officers spend additional time working to organize activities. We have weekly meetings Friday during lunch in Room 72.
We understand that you're a busy high school student so we offer you excused absences. Members are expected to attend at least two meetings per month and at least five events throughout the school year.
As a high school student, you're allowed to bring your own laptop to school. While having a laptop handy with you at school is helpful and convenient, we provide computers for students who cannot bring their own devices to school.
