ASB / Student Council / Clubs
The Associated Student Body of San Gabriel Mission High School is a democracy based on parliamentary procedure that consists of five spots, and also works in conjunction with the Student Council of the school. Student Council (SC) is a collaboration of all club presidents and class boards in the school. Each Thursday they hold a meeting and go through certain orders of business around school that need their attention. The ASB adviser is Ms. Alma Stone, who is also the Activities Director.
In 2006, a new event to San Gabriel Mission High School was added. The traditional "Snow Ball" was turned into Homecoming. Homecoming was formerly an informal dance, but in 2006 it was transformed into a formal dance. On record, the first formal Homecoming dance was on January 28, 2006. The first Homecoming Queen was Lucy Garcia, Class of 2006. The second Homecoming Queen of 2007 was Alex Estrada, Class of 2007. Prom Queen 2007 was Yvonne Bacio, Class of 2007.

Famous quotes containing the words student, council and/or clubs:
“What is the student but a lover courting a fickle mistress who ever eludes his grasp?”
—Sir William Osler (1849–1919)
“Parental attitudes have greater correlation with pupil achievement than material home circumstances or variations in school and classroom organization, instructional materials, and particular teaching practices.”
—Children and Their Primary Schools, vol. 1, ch. 3, Central Advisory Council for Education, London (1967)
“The true reformer does not want time, nor money, nor coöperation, nor advice. What is time but the stuff delay is made of? And depend upon it, our virtue will not live on the interest of our money. He expects no income, but outgoes; so soon as we begin to count the cost, the cost begins. And as for advice, the information floating in the atmosphere of society is as evanescent and unserviceable to him as gossamer for clubs of Hercules.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
