All teachers in the school
All boys in each grade
All students in each grade
All students in the social studies club

All students in the social studies club

All students in each grade. This group would best represent the entire school population as it includes both genders and a diverse range of students. Taking a random sample from each grade would provide a more comprehensive and representative view of the entire student body's preferences.
