ST. LOUIS BOARD OF EDUCATION POLICY
The Board of Education believes that student activities are a vital part of the total educational program and should be used as a means of developing wholesome attitudes and good human relations, as well as knowledge and skills. The board further recognizes that not all of the district’s goals and objectives can be met in formal classroom study. Therefore, the district's extracurricular activities program will provide opportunities for student participation in activities designed to meet academic, leisure, recreational, social, and emotional interests and needs. Extracurricular activities will be organized and supervised, and conducted under the auspices of the school district. They will primarily involve students in activities occurring outside academic class time and for which no units of credit are awarded. These activities shall provide for individual, small group, and/or student body participation. Student participation should be on a voluntary basis.
