2024-25 Club Rush

When: TBD @ Lunch 
Where: West Gym
As part of its educational mission for students, Clovis Unified School District allows both curriculum and non-curriculum related student clubs to meet at school during non-instructional hours (e.g., before classes begin, during lunch period, club schedule, after classes end). The Governing Board believes that curriculum and non-curriculum-related student organizations can have an important place in students’ lives. Besides extending and reinforcing the instructional program, such groups can give students practice in democratic self-government and civil social discourse, as well as providing social, intellectual, and recreational opportunities.

Non-curriculum-related student clubs and the viewpoints and speech expressed at meeting of such clubs do not necessarily reflect the views of the Clovis Unified School District or the Board of Education.

Starting a New Club

Students wishing to begin a new club must: 
  • complete a “Student Club Petition” with a typed constitution (available in the Activities office) or                                        click here for Student Club Constitution 2024-2025
  • have at least fifteen (15) other students that are interested in this club (must be underclassmen) 
  • find a staff member that is willing to be the club advisor
  • complete club list located on left side tab listed "Clubs" 

Who can join a club?

However, you have the right to inform the school in writing of any particular student club in which you do not wish your student to participate.  Consent to participate will be presumed without written notice to the contrary.
