So you wish to form a new club? Well, it's quite simple. You need a starting minimum of three members (who are referred to as the club's founders), plus the approval of a staff member who is willing to act as an adviser. Once you have met that criteria, just submit the form below. Valeria will look over it, and, if she doesn't see any problems with it, she'll approve the club and you'll be able to begin activities whenever you wish.
There are some rules, however.
1) Unless stated otherwise in the application form, it will be assumed that the student who submits the registration for a club will be the leader of said club. As such, the responsibility for the actions of the club and its members will ultimately fall onto their shoulders. Should the leader resign or be forced to leave, the remaining members will vote on the new leader. The club's adviser will have the right to veto any decision, should they deem the newly-elected leader unworthy of the position. 2) Students are allowed to join as many clubs as they feel they can handle. However, if any of the school's staff feels as though club activities are interfering with academic performance, you may be forced to drop a club or two.
3) While a student may join as many clubs as they wish, they may only be a founder of one club at a time. If the club they founded is disbanded or they end up leaving it, they may act as a founding member of another club.
4) At all times, a club must have at least three members, even if one of those members is not a founding member. If the number of active members falls below three, the club will be put on hiatus. The club will still exist, but any activities will be forbidden until the minimum is reached. However, they will be allowed to try and recruit new members. If a club is left in a state of hiatus for too long, it will be disbanded.
5) Any illegal activities will result in the immediate disbanding of a club, except in the event that said activities were done by accident or in the case of a single member acting on their own, without the consent of the club's leader or adviser. However, the club will still be put on hiatus until the matter is fully resolved.
6) A single staff member may act as an adviser for up to three clubs. Advisers are not required to do anything beyond check on their respective clubs and make sure they do not get into any trouble. Whether or not they participate in any activities themselves is up to them. Lastly, a single club cannot have more than one adviser, but, in the event that a club's adviser becomes unavailable, the Headmistress herself will take over until they can return to their duties.
7) Any activities that are excessively violent will not be allowed. Sports that center around physical contact, such as kendo or wrestling, will be allowed, but only if the leader and adviser can guarantee that the proper safety precautions will be met at all times. Any activities that result in the destruction of school property will not be tolerated, and will result in the immediate disbanding of the club unless proof can be provided that such damage was an accident and/or unavoidable. So long as there is assurance that it will not happen again, the club will be able to continue its activities, but will do so under strict supervision.
8) Similar to the rule above, anything overly-sexual will not be allowed. Unless it can be tastefully done (such as posing for a drawing or painting) and is done so under the supervision of an adviser, any activities involving nudity will be prohibited. If any clubs wish to take part in any sort of activities, they must send a written request to the Headmistress explaining what they wish to do and why they wish to do it. Additionally, the adviser must send a separate request, explaining why they support this particular activity. Regardless of whether such an activity is permitted, any obscene or suggestive behavior, regardless of gender or sexual orientation, will not be tolerated.
And now, with that out of the way, here is the form. Please don't alter it in any way.
Club Name: (The name of the club. Nothing obscene or offensive)
Reason for Forming: (What is the purpose of the club, and why do you wish to form it.)
Potential Danger: (Is there a risk of one or more members getting injured in any way? If so, please specify, and include any precautions you plan to implement in order to prevent such injuries from occurring...or at the very least, minimize the damage.)
Founding Members: (Write your own name, followed by those of the other two you're forming the club with. As mentioned in Rule #1, it will be assumed that you will be taking on the responsibilities as the club leader, unless specified otherwise. If you wish to appoint someone else as the leader, do it here)
Adviser: (List the staff member who has agreed to act as your adviser. Though optional, you may also include why you approached this specific person)
Description: (Since each club will be given its own sub-board, give a short description of the club as a whole. If possible, try to keep it around 50 words.)
When you wish to start a club, simply fill out the form and post it in a new thread. Then, have the other two members and the staff member who will become the adviser post to confirm that they wish to be a part of it. After that, it's simply a matter of waiting for approval or denial.
