The student councils provide for student activities, serve as a training experience for student leaders, promote the common good, give students a share in the management of the school, develop high ideals of personal conduct, act as a clearinghouse for student activities, seek to interest students in school district affairs and help solve problems that may arise.  Members of the councils are student representatives who have direct access to the administration.

The principals, in conjunction with the students and licensed employees, shall set forth the guidelines for the student governments’ elections, operations, and other elements of the government.
