Student Organization Against Racism
Student Organization Against Racism (SOAR), was started in 2014 after an organized student walkout following the non-indictment of policeman Darren Wilson.
The club’s adviser is Joy Esboldt, who works with students to reach goals focused around social justice.
Senior Willy Poulter said they have a specific goal this year.
“Our goal for this year would be continuing with the creation of a class on race in our school,” Poulter said.
