Clubs

 

 

Any student may initiate the procedure for starting a new club during the 1st or 2nd trimester of the school year. A MCHS certificated staff member must be identified as the club Advisor. New club petitions are available below and in the ASB room. Completed paperwork (Application and Contract (last page of the Club Handbook)-links below) should be turned in to the Inter-Club Commissioner (ICC) located in the ASB room.  The completed petition must state the name, purpose, Advisor, meeting dates and times, and membership requirements of the proposed club and must be signed by at least twenty (20) MCHS students who are prospective members. A constitution must be drafted by the proponents and will be reviewed and approved or denied by the Student Review Board. The Student Senate must also approve the club. New Clubs may not be started during the 3rd trimester.
 

School sponsored clubs must be either related to the curriculum or must be service organizations. Political, religious or philosophical clubs and organizations are permitted by the Poway Unified School District and are referred to as non-school sponsored clubs. These clubs, student-initiated and led, may not have regular attendance by non-school persons, and must have a non-participatory custodial advisor. School sponsored and non-school sponsored clubs and organizations must abide by all regulations and procedures established by the school's ASB constitution. Non-school sponsored clubs may not advertise club events in the school bulletin or through flyers around campus. They are not restricted from social media platforms.
