Policies
Policies: Students must be 7th graders at the time of election. In order to run for any office, a student must have a cumulative average of “80"
or above in each subject and in conduct through and including the 3rd quarter grading period. Members of the student council should maintain an
“80" average in all subjects and in conduct. Grades are checked at report card time.
If a student fails to maintain the grades academically or
behaviorally, he or she must remain inactive until the next progress report. If at the next report card time the student again fails to maintain
the necessary grades, then he or she is dismissed permanently.
Any suspension, in-school or external, results in permanent dismissal from the student council. A member will also be dismissed from office if he/she misses three consecutive regular meetings without revealing the cause
for such absences to the president or to the sponsor.
Officers are required to chair major events sponsored by the student council.
