How open is your school to new clubs?

<p>Cuz my school rarely lets people make new clubs even if its a good idea; a lot of people talk about how they just made a club and it seems really easy, so do your school let you make any clubs you want?</p>

<p>at the beginning of the year you just fill out an application and if its not crap then you got it. I'm thinking of creating a club around math, science, engineering. Any ideas to attract the widest range of people?</p>

<p>^dude REALLY? i've been trying to create a club for years. like, i've met with people and talked about it for a while. They always try to come up with ideas for me that does NOT involve them having to make another club. Like, why don't you do volunteering OUTSIDE of school? why don't u blahblahblah. I think it's because they actually have to pay our advisors.</p>

<p>and it's NOT crap either..far from it.</p>

<p>To make a club at my school, you need the assistant principal's approval and a teacher adviser. The club can be about whatever you want as long as you can get it approved</p>

<p>Dude, it is so easy to start a club at my school. As long as you get enough people, an advisor, and ASB approves of it, you're set. It doesn't matter when you start it either- I just start a literary magazine club last month.</p>

<p>At my school, you can fill out an application at any time of the year and turn it in to a counselor, who then gets the activity approved by the principal, administration, school board, etc. As long as the club is not inappropriate or irresponsible, it gets approved.</p>

<p>In fact, I just turned in an application for a math program 2 weeks ago. I'm pretty sure they will notify me of approval in a few days.</p>

<p>lucky...>.<</p>

<p>My school's pretty open. Some clubs are just for fun, and some never really meet at all, but they still exist.</p>

<p>Yeah, I helped two of my best friends create Red Cross Club at our school. Its not very mainstream and popular yet as Key Club, Student Council, FBLA, and Habitat for Humanity are, but it still exists and it actually does stuff unlike FBLA and Student Council -_-</p>

<p>You have to get 15 or 30 people to sign a petition for it to be made (usually you just grab their friends, and they never hear of the club again, but nobody cares), and you have to get a sponsor (and it probably has to be appropriate). But it's easy enough that we even have a "Forgotten European Countries Club".</p>

<p>wow. gOSH if i could make my club so easily i could have done something already >.<</p>

<p>and LOL at Forgotten European Countries Club</p>

<p>i know that this will contradict what i said, but our school used to be lenient with clubs. That's why we have a "Flower Power Club." And then they started putting down stricter rules.</p>

<p>we need a thread "stupidest clubs ever" lmao...clubs with the stupidest names =)</p>

<p>it's SO hard to make a club at my school.
we have to make a presentation and everything and get it passed by ASB, meaning you have to kiss someone in that group's bootay to get your club IN.</p>

<p>well my school got gay and straight alliance -_-</p>

<p>loll :p 10char</p>

<p>Basically, if the club never existed before, you can't make it. For example, there used to be an Asian Club, but we didn't have one this year. Someone could start that up again. But a procedure to make a totally new Environmental Club or Model U.N. probably doesn't even exist.</p>

<p>Makes me wonder how the clubs we have even got there in the first place.</p>

<p>^haha..endless cycle! hm yours is more strict than mine. but i wish our school was more like that of people who have random clubs :p</p>
