Many students have requested the creation of an Art club but so far has been unable to proceed due to the lack of an art teacher. There has only been a club for community service but not for the average art projects. Also, students have wanted a theater class but failed to get a cappable enough of a teacher. So the English department took over but failed so they cancled the class.
