Clubs
You are encouraged to become involved in activities through the many service, interest and athletic clubs at Lakewood. Each campus club must operate under the Rules Governing School- Sponsored Student Organizations as determined by the LBUSD in order to be recognized on campus. A copy of these rules is available to every student at the Activities Office. New clubs may be started at any time as long as they meet these requirements.
New Clubs:
All clubs and organizations which recruit, fund-raise, use the daily bulletin, or use equipment (copy machine) or facilities on campus must have a faculty sponsor and be chartered by the ASB Any questions regarding membership, club formation, etc., should be directed to the Activities Specialist.
