How do we turn on the Clubs feature, and who can create or manage clubs?

The Clubs feature is off by default. A school administrator turns it on in Settings by choosing "Yes, display the club feature." Until that setting is enabled, the Clubs navigation item, club pages, and club reports are hidden and cannot be accessed.

Once Clubs are enabled:

  • Site and school administrators can create, edit, and delete any club, and can manage every club's schedule, calendar, and attendance.
  • Staff can manage clubs as well.
  • The club's advisor (owner) can manage that club — its members, schedule, calendar, and attendance — without being an administrator.
  • Everyone else can see the list of clubs and the details of any club that isn't marked private.

To add a club, open the Clubs area and choose New Club. You'll set the club name, description, advisor, whether it's private, the grades it's aimed at, and an optional maximum size. After the club exists you can set up its meeting schedule from the club's page.
