ORGANIZATIONS
The Board of Education shall encourage all students to participate in school-sponsored organizations such as athletics, fine arts groups, clubs, student government, student publications, and any others having administrative approval.
These organizations are to be established to meet the interests of all students.
Student government shall be established to provide for students to have elected and representative government bodies who shall share in the formation of general school policies, discuss matters of faculty/student relations and other matters of student concern. Students have the responsibility to participate actively in the student government process, to make sure that all students are allowed to vote, and that offices are open to all who qualify. Students may be invited to school meetings, by the administrator conducting the meeting.
School-sponsored publications are encouraged to remain within the normal rules of responsible journalism; for instance, the avoidance of libel, obscenity, defamation, false statements or material advocating racial or religious prejudice.
