Active Clubs
Club sign ups start August 22nd and start week of September 5th.
Students are encouraged to participate in clubs that are the best fit for their interests. Due to the limited number of club offerings, students are allotted membership in one club per year. Should a club have openings after the first month of a term, applications will be accepted to join a second club. To maintain membership in a club, students are to be in good academic standing at ASU Prep Digital.
Participation
To join a second club, students should:
- Ensure they are in good academic standing, including regular participation in courses, and logging and accruing required attendance minutes.
- Complete the additional club permission form.
- Request a letter of recommendation from the Learning Success Coach to be sent to the club sponsor for review.
- Follow up with the club sponsor to ensure the recommendation letter and parent-permission form has been received.
Club Eligibility
Students will not be eligible for a second club without the completion of the above requirements.
If a student feels their current club is not a good fit, they are welcome to request a new club. All requests will depend on available space.
In order to change clubs students should complete the following:
- Email the current club advisor explaining the request to drop the current club
- Email the club academic coordinator with your request to join a different club.
Club Members Responsibilities to the Sponsor
Recognize the advisor as an integral part of the club/organization:
- The sponsor’s schedule should be considered when determining meeting dates/times.
- A club sponsor must be present at all club meetings and club events. If the sponsor cannot be present, another certified staff member can be designated as a substitute.
- The sponsor should be apprised and available for club/organization meetings and functions/events.
- Keep the sponsor fully informed of all business relating to the club and the progress of plans for functions/events, etc. We encourage the President of the club should meet regularly with the advisor to support this practice.
- Utilize the sponsor’s background and experience. Seek the sponsor’s advice on all matters relating to the club/organization.
- Club officers/members are expected to run meetings using an agenda, and sponsors are present to maintain climate, culture, and safety.
- Meetings should be held using the advisor’s ASU Prep Digital zoom room
- All club members will adhere to the ASU Prep Digital student code of conduct found in the school handbook. Behavior issues will be handled by the school principal. Depending on the area of concern, students may be removed from participating in the club and /or participating in future clubs.
**The most successful clubs/organizations have an active, strong alliance with the sponsors.
If a student has an idea about starting a new club, they must understand all of the necessary steps to doing so. Read and understand the following club guidelines before starting a club as every club must have gone through the approval process before they begin.
Students are encouraged to create and formally establish student groups of interest as officially recognized clubs. A national organization often have specific guidelines for their chapters on matters such as membership requirement please be sure to review and include these details in your application.
Applying for a new club does not guarantee club approval for the new school year. New clubs depend on the completion of the application process, current need, available funds to sponsor new clubs, and student interest.
Applications for new clubs open on May 1st of each school year. All applications should be submitted by May 31st to be considered. Click HERE to learn more and access the application.
