CLUB PROCEDURES

CLUBS

Discovery High School (DHS) is proud to begin the process of creating clubs. There are no academic requirements for membership in student organizations, except National Honor Society. 

CRITERIA FOR CREATING A NEW CLUB 

Clubs at DHS exist to serve the needs of students, and you are encouraged to submit proposals for a new club. 

To be eligible for consideration as a club sponsored by DHS, a club must meet the following criteria: 

1. Evidence of sufficient student interest (10 or more students). 

2. Availability of an appropriate sponsor (a certified staff member at DHS). 3. No significant duplication of purpose, goals, activities of an existing school sponsored club.

PROCEDURE FOR CREATING A NEW CLUB 

If you believe the above criteria are met you should do the following: 

1. Meet with the activities director to ensure the criteria above are met. (Email erica.hudson@discoveryfl.org your club idea to ensure there are no duplicate clubs.)

2. Meet with the sponsor and potential members of the club to draft a proposal. 

3. Complete the DHS Club Proposal Form

4. Wait for contact from Mr. Jemison to present the proposal for approval. 

5. Clubs may be dissolved at any time for lack of membership, lack of regular activities, or administrative decision.
