This is just one example of how joining a club can be a beneficial way to learn and gain new experiences. Many students say that they would recommend their clubs to most other students.

With the club Best Buddies you are bonding with someone you have never met. “It is a commitment, students who are not willing to fully commit to the club should not join,” said Kaylee, “since you are responsible for upholding a relationship with the buddy you are paired with.”

Finding a club that you will be interested in and be able to commit to is an easy task and if you have an idea for a club Frisco doesn’t have yet try talking to your counselors abut making your own club!
