Request a New Club

Needham High School Extracurricular Activities

NHS Extracurricular Activities Purpose Statement: Extracurricular activities at Needham High School are an integral component of the comprehensive educational environment and provide students with opportunities to develop social and emotional competencies, teamwork, leadership, creativity, and service to the community. Student clubs and activities enable students to be self-aware, to have social relationship skills, to self manage, and to make responsible decisions. New clubs must align with this purpose statement.

 


Requesting a New Club

Before you submit a request for a new NHS club:

1. Determine if a similar club already exists

Please look at the Directory of existing clubs to see if there is a current club that aligns with your interest.  Sometimes joining an existing club can have a bigger impact than starting up a brand new club.

2. Find out if others would like to join you

Start a list of students who share your interest and would like to join the club. Try to recruit students in multiple grades if possible. Consider having a meet-up after school to recruit new members.

3. Plan Your Club

Once you have decided that you would like to request a new club, take some time to plan out the details of the club. How does the club align with the overall Extracurricular Activity Purpose Statement above? Who will be the club advisor? When will the club meet?

4. Complete the New Club Request Form

5. Make an Appointment
