Student elections keep the school running. While responsibilities could fall on the administration, it’s far more beneficial for students to take charge of certain activities.

Students on the board are behind many of the most memorable parts of high school. Their goal is to make school fun and inclusive by organizing rallies, spirit weeks, and events that build school pride. The board also welcomes new students and creates opportunities for everyone to feel connected.

A student board isn’t just about getting work done. It provides a voice for students, making it easier to ask questions and share ideas with people who share similar experiences and values.

Joining student government offers valuable skills and personal growth that are essential for future success. As a member, you’ll learn how to work as part of a team, communicate effectively, lead and inspire others, and turn ideas into action.
