Clubs At Maret
Maret is home to a broad variety of clubs. A club may be started by any student as long as there is a teacher sponsor. This freedom allows students a great deal of latitude in creating clubs to learn about and help world issues like Darfur, or to focus on personal interests, such as knitting or chemistry. Many of these clubs hold school-wide bake sales to raise money for their causes. These are some of the diverse clubs offered for the 2009-10 school year: Jam Club, GSA (Gay-Straight Alliance), Psych Club (Psychology), Horizons, Engineering Team, Tech Crew, Community Service Club, Veg Club, Sports Discussion Club, and the National Geographic Bee Club (in the middle school).

Famous quotes containing the word clubs:
“The true reformer does not want time, nor money, nor coöperation, nor advice. What is time but the stuff delay is made of? And depend upon it, our virtue will not live on the interest of our money. He expects no income, but outgoes; so soon as we begin to count the cost, the cost begins. And as for advice, the information floating in the atmosphere of society is as evanescent and unserviceable to him as gossamer for clubs of Hercules.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
