Across town, Eastern View High School
students also participate in a wide range of extracurricular clubs and activities. EVHS offered 39 club options this year and almost all of them are filled to maximum limits with waiting lists. One of its most interesting clubs may surprise you. “Bike with Bopp – is unique and super
popular. We have 15 students participating, but 30 on the waitlist, due to limited
bikes,” said Communication Director for Culpeper County Schools Laura Hoover. Biking with Bopp is a cycling club
that the Principal, Dr. Bopp started this year.
Other popular clubs at EVHS include:
FCCLA - 73 participants, FFA - 46 participants, Gamers Club - 25 (40 on a wait list), Improv Club - 41 participants, Anime & Manga Club - 31 participants, Recreational Activities Club - 20 participants (40 on wait list), and the Cornhole Club 20 participants (20 on wait list). In contrast to the fears of many older
adults, local young people are taking an interest in leadership and the betterment of their communities. Te popularity of FCCLA is encouraging. Its key goals are contained in its acronym — family, career and community leadership. Another encouraging trend is the
popularity of FFA, Future Farmer of America, a nod to Culpeper’s rich history and rural farming traditions. Te renewed enthusiasm for agri-businesses shows that young people are finding new ways, based on older methods, to create and develop
businesses. Te growth of technology blended with science and the energy of youth will undoubtedly benefit Culpeper’s economy. Career-based activities in the fields
of emergency medicine, in tandem with traditional leadership programs including Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps. are helping mold tomorrow’s leaders and first responders. Volunteering for local fire departments, law enforcement and local non-profits also creates future leaders focused on service and community. Gaming and art clubs helped many
young people stay connected during school closures associated with the pandemic. Te oſten-maligned social media networks and gaming communities provided channels for creativity and social interaction when it was limited. High school students in Culpeper have
more opportunities now than in the past to explore and grow into productive young adults. Local businesses that invest in the development of young people can create limitless economic opportunities built with homegrown talent.
