Dear Mark Keppel Students,
If you are interested in applying for a club in the 2020-2021 school year, please read the following.
Due to the COVID-19 situation, the all clubs’ meeting regarding information about applying for a new club was postponed so, we are trying to make sure this process is easy for everyone. Attached is a clean copy of the application you will need to print and fill out. The applications will be due one week after school begins. But you can submit it to us without an advisor signature now to make sure that both your budget and constitution are correct and later attach a signed note from your advisor in the fall. If you plan on doing this submit all applications to [email protected] and [email protected]
The application must be filled out completely unless you plan on turning it in early and attaching your advisor’s signature later. You must have at least ten members to apply for status and the ones listed cannot be seniors. A budget and constitution must also be attached to the application and you must have a budget even if you do not fundraise. If you have trouble writing a constitution for your club, there is a guideline attached that will help you prepare or update a constitution for your club. An approved constitution is a requirement for all student groups using the club name and resources.
For an active club membership, you must:
-
Attend 50% of all meetings
-
Participate in a school activity once a semester, and this activity cannot overlap with other clubs, as in one activity cannot be for 4 different clubs
-
Have lunchtime showcase/activity at palm court once a year
-
Meet at least once a quarter and those minuted must be submitted to your club advisor and business and activities if requested
For fundraising:
-
Green request forms must be turned in two weeks in advance and an online permit must be filled (if applicable)
-
Gram sales are limited to one week per club (ex: valentine’s day or holiday grams)
For publicity:
-
You are only allowed to put 1 flyer per bulletin board, and they must be approved by your advisor and business and activities
If you have any questions regarding the application process contact [email protected] or [email protected]
