Club Name:Golf
Club Description & Mission

Purpose of the Club is for students to get athletically engaged in golf as a sport. Both recreationally -- and competitively. Golf is seldom thought of as a team sport and is traditionally viewed as an individual sport. This couldn't be further from the truth! Learning, playing, and advancing in Golf is a team effort. Golfers grow through the shared input, strengths, and guidance of their peers and coach, and there are several team-oriented "match-style" competitions.

Golf is for EVERYONE. You do not need to have money to play this sport. You do not need to have fancy clubs, balls, shoes, etc... to play golf. The ONLY pre-requisite for playing golf (and then becoming great at it) is a growth mindset where you want to work to become not just a better golfer, but a better person.

 

DC students/DC residents can play at DC municipal golf courses for as little as SIX dollars (yes, six dollars!)

 

 

Proposed Activities

Participate in casual and competitive golf. Golf practice, golf lessons, golf workshopping. Everything golf.

 

The goal is for the club to participate in organized golf tournaments with other DC schools.

Social Media Guidelines

Social media can be a powerful tool to engage with supporters, showcase our school's achievements, and build a strong community. However, it also poses potential risks if not handled carefully. We aim to ensure that our school's social media accounts are free from inappropriate content that could negatively impact our school community.

Several existing Instagram accounts exist for clubs and activities, including those from previous school years (Wilson). To avoid confusion, we ask that all clubs and activities provide their most recent Instagram accounts with Ms. Clemmons to be posted on the school website. Any official Jackson-Reed account must list Jackson-Reed (JR), JRTigers, or Tigers with the club or activity on the page (i.e., Tigersdsa- Disability Student Alliance). The bio should contain the sentence, "The official account of the (school year) Jackson-Reed (your club or activity) " All login information must be shared with the club sponsor and monitored regularly. The sponsor must approve any student posts before posting them on official accounts.

To achieve this, we kindly ask that you communicate the following guidelines to our club and activities students and anyone with access to the social media accounts:

  • Respect: All posts and comments should adhere to the principles of respect. Any behavior that promotes negativity or disrespects other students or student groups will not be tolerated.
  • Avoid Inappropriate Content: We must avoid any content that includes offensive language, discriminatory remarks, or explicit materials. Encourage those to think before they post and consider the potential consequences of their content.
  • Think Twice Before Posting: Remind our club and activities members to think twice before posting anything. Encourage them to ask themselves if their post aligns with our ROAR values and whether it could be misconstrued or misunderstood.
  • Please refrain from Personal Attacks: Disagreements are a natural part of school interactions, but we should discourage any personal attacks through our social media accounts.
  • Promote #Tigerpride: Emphasize using social media to highlight collaboration, club/activity accomplishments, upcoming events, etc. Positive content helps to foster a strong sense of community.
  • Monitoring and Reporting: Regularly monitor club and activities' social media accounts to ensure compliance with these guidelines. Official accounts should not follow unofficial accounts with questionable content. When this happens, the account in question is recommended to your followers, giving the impression that J-R endorses their content. If any inappropriate content is spotted, report it immediately to Ms. Clemmons or Ms. Lawrence for review and appropriate action.
