2430 - DISTRICT-SPONSORED CLUBS AND ACTIVITIES
The Adams-Friendship Board of Education believes that the goals and objectives of this District are best achieved by a diversity of learning experiences, including those that are not conducted in a regular classroom but are directly related to the curriculum.
The purpose of curricular-related activities shall be to enable students to explore a wider range of individual interests than may be available in the District's courses of study but are still directly related to accomplishing the educational outcomes for students as adopted by the Board in Policy 2131.
For purposes of this policy, curricular-related activities are defined as those activities in which:
| A. | the subject matter is actually taught or will be taught in a regularly offered course; | |
| B. | the subject matter concerns the District's composite courses of study; | |
| C. | participation is required for a particular course; | |
| D. | participation results in academic credit. |
No curricular-related activity shall be considered to be under the sponsorship of this Board unless it meets one or more of the criteria stated above and has been approved by the District Administrator.
Such activities, along with co-curricular activities (not directly related to courses of study), may be conducted on or off school premises by clubs, associations, and organizations of students sponsored by the Board and directed by a staff advisor.
| A. | The Board shall allow nondistrict-sponsored, student clubs and activities during noninstructional time, in accordance with the provisions in Policy 5730 -- Equal Access For Nondistrict-Sponsored, Student Clubs and Activities. | |
| B. | Noncurricular, student activities that are initiated by parents or other members of the community may be allowed under the provisions of Policy 7510 - Use of District Facilities. The Board, however: |
| 1. | will not assume any responsibility for the planning, conducting, or evaluating of such activities; | ||
| 2. | will not provide any funds. |
No nondistrict-sponsored organization may use the name of the School District or any other name which would associate an activity with the District.
Whenever a student becomes a member of a District-established student group or national organization such as the National Honor Society, in order to remain a member, s/he must continue to meet all of the eligibility criteria and abide by the principles and practices established by the group or the organization.
