Anime Club!

Welcome, Shepard high students! This year, as well as previous years, Shepard is offering an open invitation to our students to join the amazing group that is Anime Club! In this after-school activity, students will come together to either watch anime, read manga, share art, or partake in various activities depending on the day/schedule. While this can be foreign to most, regularly attending students invite anyone interested with open arms and a big smile. So please, if any of what you have read has piqued your curiosity, then join the classroom link below and become a member today!

Join our club through Google Classroom using code: 6yey5us

Club Mission:  Anime club is an after-school activity that aims to bring Shepard’s student body together and broaden their understanding of the inherently deep culture of Japan. To accomplish this, Anime Club looks to expand student horizons by exploring various aspects such as Anime (Similar to an American cartoon with attention to artistic detail, and occasionally focusing on deep themes representative of differing life values), manga (Similar to American Comics addressing ideas from minute to complex), art (A culturally different artistic style which has been perfected over generations), and occasionally, celebrating in various Asian Festivals (foods can include fish product, but allergies are fully considered.). While the culture may be vast, exploring the uncharted terrain becomes manageable through the mission’s goal to reinforce the glue of diversity, the love for knowledge, and the enjoyment of student engagement. With these three efforts and a safe space, the opportunity for growth is infinite!
 

Meeting Information:

Students are expected to arrive every Wednesday from 3:30-4:30 P.M in room A317
