Held at the start of every school year and sponsored by Student Council, the fair highlights the many extracurricular activities available at the school. Throughout the fair, middle school and high school students used the booths of sponsoring clubs and organizations in order to learn more about the various activities and to sign up for those that interest them.  <\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s fair included booths from the school\u2019s athletic teams, Math Court, Mock Trial, the National Speech and Debate Association, Red Cross Club, Theatre Club, and a new club, \u201cGamers Uknighted,\u201d a club for gamers whose name is a nod to the school\u2019s mascot.  Now that clubs and organizations are up and running, they will shift their attention to the upcoming Student Leadership Retreat, in which all activities for the year will be planned out.<\/p>\n<p>The students were very excited about the many activities available to cater to the diverse interests of students. As Jonelle Toskas, a junior, puts it, \u201cI liked how there are more options this year.\u201d She added, \u201cI\u2019ve actually signed up for nine clubs!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fellow junior, Jeff Melchor, agreed and even went so far as to take the initiative to coordinate the school\u2019s participation in the International Thespian Society. \u201cI want to try something new, and this is something that I\u2019ve been thinking about doing for quite some time.<strong> (PR)<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over 200 middle school and high school students participated in Mount Carmel School\u2019s Student Activities&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":28,"featured_media":234583,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[1181,6984,13007,7236],"class_list":["post-234578","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-news","tag-mcs","tag-stuco","tag-student-activities-fair","tag-student-leadership-retreat"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/234578","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/28"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=234578"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/234578\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/234583"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=234578"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=234578"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=234578"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
