Clubs & Organizations
School sponsored clubs (excluding competitive interscholastic activities and events) are those under the sponsorship, direction, and control of the school that organize and meet for common goals, objectives, and purposes. State law requires that parents have the right to withhold permission for their student to participate in any school sponsored club or organization designated by them. Written permission will be required prior to a student's participation in a school sponsored club or activity.
