  • General Information

  • What is Student Council?

    Student Council is a student-based organization designed to help promote school spirit and leadership among students, staff, and families in the school, the neighborhood, and the community. Students participating in the Council will maintain a high standard of personal conduct. Council members will demonstrate leadership qualities by serving as good examples of behavior through their words and actions. All council members will be expected to participate in approved activities, which will serve to enhance the quality of the school culture and community.

    The purpose of Student Council is:

    • To develop positive attitudes and to practice good citizenship.
    • To promote positive relations throughout the entire school.
    • To improve student/staff relationships.
    • To improve school morale and general well-being.
    • To provide a forum for student expression.
    • To plan special events and/or projects. (Haunted Hallway, Walk for Cancer, ect.)

     

    During the school year we hope to:

    • Continue the traditions of previous Council members
