Pulaski County Middle School students saw a return to a loved activity Tuesday, as Club Day got its’ start for the 2023-24 school year.

While some of the clubs are geared toward completing specific tasks, others are simply enjoyable. All have some learning component to them, however.


“Working on puzzles is a great way to relax, but it’s also a great way to learn patience and to fine tune your problem-solving skills,” Mrs. Catty Collins said.


“We’re just excited to offer our students the chance to be a part of FCA, which is also offered at the high school, and allow them the chance to learn more about their faith,” Mr. Justin Price said.


“With the recycling club, we want our students to learn about responsible ways to gather up paper, recycle it, and help make our planet a better place,” Mr. Justin Shatto said.


“Our goal is to create the best possible yearbook, allowing our students and staff the chance to remember their years here at the middle school,” Mrs. Amy Davis said about the Yearbook Club.


Students were also excited about the return of club day.


“It’s great to do something different and have some fun,” Cha Cha Ratcliff-Calfee said. She is a member of the Sports Club. “We work hard, but we also like to have some fun. This is a great way to cut loose a little bit.”
