Student Council
The Student Council at St. Peter’s Boys High School is comprised of a group of students elected by peers to participate in designated areas of school government. Four executive representatives for the student body – namely the president, vice president, secretary and treasurer – fulfill all responsibilities as dictated by each position in an efficient and effective manner and must act in accordance with our Lasallian mission. Any student is welcomed to apply for active membership and, if selected, will be required to attend and participate in all Student Council meetings and events. Students are encouraged to exhibit, at all times, St. Peter’s leadership roles in our community that emphasize Eagle strength and pride: faith, service and integrity.
Involvement in Student Council has been proven to be beneficial on both academic and social levels. Generally, members participate in the planning of school events that include, but are not limited to dances, sports tournaments and pep rallies. They also assist administration with events for the local community such as blood drives and donation collections. The Student Council works closely with the district’s school board, school administration, parent organizations, student body and the local community to decide on and approve projects and initiatives for the school, students and community, with continuous dedication to helping those in need nation- and worldwide.
Student Council members bring forth ideas, requests and feedback to the meetings. Students have a voice and are, undoubtedly, heard through a democratic process as they create and build a yearlong calendar of events driven by their dynamic and vibrant school spirit. Students who participate in our Student Council, under the supervision of a teacher and/or administrator, learn about the democratic process, civic responsibility, leadership, problem-solving and teamwork…but more importantly, what it means to be a true Lasallian at heart!
