A New Club At LSN: Club Psych
Story & Graphic by Isabelle Flood – Editor-in-Chief
A brand new club at LSN was started by Lena Scofield, Addison Harding, and Emily McEwen called Club Psych. This club meets every third Friday of every month in Ms. Hood-Johnson’s room.
Club Psych was created to help people learn about psychology and make projects surrounding the topics they learn about.
“Every month is focused on a different topic. We first learn about what we are focusing on that month, then do a fun activity correlated with it. For example, since October was mental health awareness month, we made a bulletin board called “take what you need” and added little slips of paper with inspiring quotes and sayings to help with any negative mental topics,” Lena Scofield, junior, said.
The main goal behind Club Psych is for students to get more involved in the school community without it being too overwhelming.
“It is very good to be involved, but sometimes being involved gets overwhelming and stressful. Club psych is a way to be involved but in a calming and educational way,” Scofield said.
School can get stressful and demanding at times, so having a place to relax and have fun within the school community is very important.
“We are here to spread positive vibes, a great way to be involved, and such a great way to meet new friends,” Scofield said.
