Interact

  • OVERVIEW -
    The  main focus of Interact Club is to support individuals locally, nationally, and/or internationally, with money, goods, and/or deeds.  Through activities with these focus, club members and the officer team gain networking, volunteer, and leadership opportunities.
    The Rotary Club of Jackson sponsors and supports this high school club.  Ms. Sarah Eades serves as the Rotarian Liaison for Interact Club.

    Ms. Stone serves as the current advisor.

    MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION -
    Traditionally, approximately 75 high school students, grades 9-12, participate as active members. 
    To remain a member in good standing, an individual must attend a minimum of 1 event per month and complete 2 committee requirements each semester.  A committee requirement consists of participating in the many opportunities Interact Club sponsors throughout the school year.

    The organization meets biweekly on Thursdays as well as on an "as needed" basis.
