Student Council

Student Council Leads the Way

Student Council members are students who agree to assume leadership roles within the school community. As leaders, Student Council members are expected to exhibit responsibility, school spirit, respect, and a commitment to service. They are the link between the administration/faculty and their fellow students and must show support for both. They strive to accomplish their best, academically and socially, for themselves and others.
