+ | The Board directs the superintendent or designee to administer the district’s extracurricular activities and groups and create any administrative procedures necessary for implementation of this policy. | ||

+ | Definitions | ||
+ | |||
+ | Extracurricular Activity or Group – All district-sponsored student activities and groups meeting or occurring during noninstructional time. Extracurricular activities or groups may be either cocurricular or noncurricular. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Cocurricular Activity or Group – An extracurricular activity or group that meets any one of the following criteria: | ||
+ | |||
+ | 1. The subject matter of the activity or group is or will be taught in a regularly offered class. | ||
+ | |||

+ | |||
+ | All extracurricular activities or groups must have an appointed sponsor, advisor or coach. In general, the sponsor, advisor or coach must be a district employee; however, upon the recommendation of the superintendent and approval by the Board, an individual who is not an employee may serve as a sponsor, advisor or coach subject to the completion of the criminal background check required of employees. It shall be the duty of such individuals to attend all meetings, functions or practices of the relevant group, advise and supervise students, and keep the appropriate principal informed regarding activities. All district-sponsored extracurricular activities must be included on the school calendar. | ||

Students may be excluded from extracurricular activities or groups as a disciplinary action, as a consequence for poor performance in school or otherwise as determined by district administrators.
