About Student Activities

Studies show that students involved in co-curricular activities are more likely to perform better academically, develop effective leadership skills and express greater satisfaction with their school experience than others who do not participate. Browse through our clubs and take advantage of all that Stevenson offers!

Student Council

The purpose of Student Council is to help improve Stevenson High School. Student Council is the major vehicle for communication between students, the Board of Education, and the administration. In fact, a member of Student Council sits with the Board of Education during its monthly meetings. The council is responsible for planning and organizing many of the school’s social events. Members from each class are selected by application to form the nucleus of the Student Council.

Student Council has unlimited membership. Student Council meets every day during third period in Room 1102. Students are expected to have third hour free unless there is an immovable conflict in their class schedule.

Proposing a New Club or Organization

Students who want to propose the creation of a new club or organization at Stevenson must submit an application to the Student Activities Office. Use this link to download the application.

There is one deadline each semester for new club applications. See the link for deadlines.

After the completed packet has been returned to the Student Activities Office, the application goes through the following process:

1. Review of application by the Director of Student Activities for school-sponsored clubs and conditions for school-recognized club (see page 7-8).
2. Student leaders present to Student Leadership Advisory Council (SLAC) subcommittee.
3. Recommendation by the SLAC subcommittee to Director of Student Activities for acceptance or rejection of the club as a school-sponsored club or school-recognized club.
4. The final decision of acceptance or rejection of the club is made by the Director of Student Activities and Principal.
5. If a club is accepted as a school-sponsored club, the club will be on “pilot” status for two full semesters, and a specific plan to start as a school-sponsored pilot club will be developed by the advisor, students and Student Activities Director.
