Student government is a well-organized and active body that seeks to develop student leaders.

​

Student government exists to serve the needs and interests of all students consistent with the school's mission, goals, and objectives. The principal should work in close collaboration with the student leaders and provide them a voice in the decision-making process of the school.

Given the importance of student governance to the success of a school, the principal should take extraordinary care in choosing the sponsors of student government.

​

The Student government consists of six ministries run by students by giving them the opportunity to make a difference by leading their school; the opportunity enables them to improve leadership skills, communication skills and their academic performance.

The SG is led by an employee from the administrative office of the school under the title: Student Government Manager.

Who joins student government?

Any student can run for a position or try to get involved in other ways. Typically, students who get involved in their schools’ governments care a lot about their schools and campus communities, do well in leadership roles, are proactive, and want to get involved with student life at its roots.
