  3. Thank you for taking on the role of Key Club Advisor! Key Club Advisors put in a lot of time and effort above and beyond the call of duty. We do not do this for any sort of compensation; we do this because we want to see young people succeed, develop leadership skills, practice lifelong core values, and learn the benefits of serving others in need. The students need someone who will be there to help supervise events, help them pay their dues, guide them in fundraisers, sign documents on their behalf, and most of all, be a pillar of support and ensure their safety throughout their service in Key Club. Commitment

  4. Every Key Club is sponsored by a Kiwanis Club in their division. If you don’t know who this club is, please ask your Lieutenant Governor. • Kiwanis is dedicated to serving the children worldwide, including their SLP, or Service Leadership Programs, including Key Club. • Every Key Club should have a Kiwanis Advisor, or liaison, from the Kiwanis Club, who can collaborate with the Faculty Advisor, and ensure that the sponsoring Kiwanis Club is up to date on the Key Club’s activities. Relationship with Kiwanis

  5. The Kiwanis Club can provide service opportunities and share in supervisory duties. • They can also help with funding and scholarships for Key Club members for various events. • When the Kiwanis sponsors a Key Club, a charter document is created that outlines the responsibilities that the Kiwanis Club has in serving the Key Club. Relationship with Kiwanis

  6. At all Key Club events, chaperones must: • delineate rules and expectations to Key Club members prior to each event. • keep all medical authorization and consent to attend forms in one place on their person at all times, and in certain cases, advisor responsibility forms. • be physically capable, and not be dependent on others for any portion of their duties of any event. • be on duty at all times without question once the role of chaperone is accepted, or an equal change of chaperone has occurred. Advisor Do’s and Don’ts cont.

  7. At all Key Club events, chaperones must: • not complete other tasks or work while on duty, such as grading papers or working on laptops. • create a chaperone list ahead of time, and ensure that there is overlap of chaperones when going on and off duty. • NEVER consume alcoholic beverages or tobacco at any time. Advisor Do’s and Don’ts cont.

  8. Regarding school district and Key Club policies, chaperones must: • be fully aware of all school district and Key Club policies regarding field trips and overnight excursions. These policies do vary from district to district, and in some cases, school to school. In the case of differing policies, the stricter policy should be followed. • be aware of school district and Key Club regulations regarding driving of students to events. • always follow the supervisory ratio of 1 chaperone per 12 Key Club members. Advisor Do’s and Don’ts cont.

  9. When attending large-scale or overnight events, chaperones must: • sign and submit the Code of Conduct and Advisor Responsibility Forms. • generate a room list of all students and chaperones, and designate room check assignments for all chaperones. • understand and strictly follow curfew regulations. • in the case of hotel overflow outside of their control, make arrangements with advisors at said hotels for supervision duties. Advisor Do’s and Don’ts cont.

  10. When attending large-scale or overnight events, chaperones must: • conduct a dress-rehearsal or check-off for students prior to the event, to ensure that students (or chaperones) are not removed for failure to follow dress code. • follow all dress codes and codes of conduct that students are expected to follow. • attend all events with their students, even general sessions over long periods of time. At no point should a chaperone leave or remain in the hotel while students are unattended at an event. Advisor Do’s and Don’ts cont.

  11. When attending large-scale or overnight events, chaperones must: • understand that students may never leave an event or enter one without the supervision of their chaperone. • understand and follow that extracurricular activities do not supersede the Key Club event (i.e. skipping final sessions to attend Disneyland). Advisor Do’s and Don’ts cont.

  12. In general, chaperones should: • have First Aid certification. • hold chaperone meetings prior to events to understand duties, rules, and regulations of the event. • know bus/driver numbers, phone numbers of other chaperones, Key Club members, and parents in case of emergency. • create sign-in sheets for Key Club members and chaperones, to ensure supervision of all attendees. Advisor Do’s and Don’ts cont.

  13. In general, chaperones should: • ensure that Key Club members are picked up at a reasonable time, which may include calling parents ahead. • two advisors should wait in the event of late student pickups. • call the local police if students are not picked up and/or parent contact is not made. Advisor Do’s and Don’ts cont.

  14. New officers should be formally trained at an Officer Training Conference, or OTC, held by your division’s Lieutenant Governor in early summer. • It is beneficial for you, as an advisor, to attend this training as well to stay current. • This training applies to: • Presidents • Vice Presidents • Secretaries • Treasurers • Bulletin Editors New Officer Training
