Student Government
Student Government is a representative legislative body. Each grade has a Class Board group, which includes a President, Vice President, Recording Secretary, Corresponding Secretary, Treasurer, Historian and several Student Government Representatives (number depends on class year). Each class board manages its own funds and activities. The Student Government representatives, in addition to being active members of their own class board are also required to attend weekly Student Government meetings. The Student Government addresses issues that pertain to the school as a whole, specifically activities that include more than one grade, club or incorporate a community group. Examples of activities managed by Student Government include Homecoming, March Jamboree, Spirit Day, and Pep Rallies. The president and the advisor, have the primary responsibility and accountability to the student body of insuring that each function goes according to plan. They are assisted by the other Student Government officers and in most cases an event Chairperson.
