INTERNATIONAL >
Key Club goes internationally across many states within the US. Key Club headquarters are located in Indianapolis, Indiana.
DISTRICT >
A Key Club district is comprised of states. We are a part of the California-Nevada-Hawaii District, meaning that all Key Clubs in these three states represent one group, also known as the "CNH Bees". Every district has a district board consisted of a District Governor, a District Secretary and a District Treasurer.
REGION >
Narrowed down from a district is a region. Each region is made up of a large body of Key Clubbers from different schools within the California region. Santa Teresa is a part of Region 17 along with many other schools, and is under the guidance of Region Advisors Jennifer Buelna, Jim Hart and Jim Davis.
DIVISION >
Within a region are divisions. Division 12 East, Division 12 West, Division 12 South, Division 34 North, Division 34 South, and Division 43 all belong to Region 17. Each has their own unique colors and mascots, and are led by the Lieutenant Governor who works closely with the District Board. Santa Teresa is from Division 12 South, represented by the green and gray Supervillains.
SCHOOL >
And finally, within a division, you can find a number of high school Key Clubs that operate under a student board. Santa Teresa's board consists of 16 board members, 1 Club Advisor and 1 Kiwanis Advisor. We are known as the energetic and colorful Koopa Kids of Super Mario Bros. You can contact these board members if you want to learn more about Key Club.
