The first step towards achieving this goal is to provide a process to identify all members of the Associated Student Body. All students receive an authentic I.D. card free of charge during registration. Students are expected to carry it with them at all times and must have it to check out textbooks and library books and to attend school activities (such as dances). A unique VPHS ASB Card may be purchased for $60 at registration. This card will be distinct from an I.D. card, and it will provide valuable discounts during the school year. Funds raised through the sale of ASB Cards are used to finance a first-class activities program, including assemblies, spirit competitions, student recognition, and student handbook costs. In return for your help in financing the activities program, an ASB card provides you with major discounts during the year at dances, at home athletic events, at theatrical productions, and for purchasing of theyearbook. The replacement cost for any I.D. card or binder reminder is $5. Replacements may be done in the Student Center during lunch or nutrition after payment in the Principal’s Office. If you withdraw from Villa Park High School you must turn in your ID card, otherwise you will be charged the replacement cost. The constitution of Villa Park High School establishes that an active Associated Student Body Government is involved in all aspects of campus programs and activities. The ASB Government consists of an Associated Student Body Cabinet, elected ASB Executive Board, elected Class Officers, Leadership appointed by the Activities Director, Class Councils appointed by the Officers, and the House Representatives. Students of OUSD have the right to exercise free expression, including the distribution of printed materials or petitions, and the wearing of buttons, badges, and other insignia. Expression shall be prohibited which is obscene, libelous, slanderous, or material which so incites students as to create a clear and present danger, or encourages the commission of unlawful acts on school premises or the violation of school regulations, or the substantial distribution of the orderly operation of the school. Posted signs, notices, bulletins, and/or announcements must first be approved by the Principal or designee. The Odyssey is Villa Park’s yearbook. The price will be announced in the fall during registration and ASB cardholders receive a discount. The Oracle is Villa Park’s student news magazine that is distributed free ofcharge. 6 6 Villa Park High School offers several clubs that meet the diverse interests of students. All students are encouraged to sign up for clubs that interest them. Keep in mind that only chartered clubs may officially meet and function as a VPHS organization. To be chartered, a club is required to have a faculty sponsor, a club constitution, and a membership list. The charter has to be approved by the ASB Cabinet and by the House of Representatives. This charter must be kept on file in the Student Center at all times. Students interested in forming a club on campus should secure a teacher to act as an advisor and then contact the Student Organization Commissioner in the Student Center. Club Rushes and Food Days are scheduled throughout the year. There can be no meeting or fund-raising until the club or organization is officially sanctioned and chartered. Secret fraternities, sororities, or clubs, wholly or partly formed by pupils attending public schools, are prohibited by State Law. The following 2017-2018 clubs have already been chartered and are open to membership.
