Summary: The Book and Craft Club students work diligently to read, analyze, and discuss books that are often well above the standard high school curriculum. In addition to the reading component , the students work on creating hand-made items, most of which get donated to help and support those in need. We have worked with Loma Linda Pediatric Oncology to make hats for pediatric cancer patients. This year, we are partnering with Quilts of Valor to award quilts to combat veterans.

The B&C Club students have worked at various fundraisers throughout the last school year and the start of this year to go to several trips throughout the year. Universal Studios Hollywood has a Halloween event, tying in perfectly to the mystery/horror theme of the books the students chose for this year. We will be reading classic and modern books of these genres.

The event is a chance for the students to work together and support each other in working their way through mazes, allowing them a real-life experience of solving mysteries. This event only takes place in the evening, from 7:00 pm to 2:00 am. We will be leaving the school after school hours on Friday, October 19, 2018 and returning at approximately 4-5:00 am on Saturday, October 20. Approximately 15 students with 2 chaperones will be traveling by district vehicle to and from the theme park. Parents are aware of the return time and that they will need to transport their students home.
