This class acts as an organization of student leaders who plan and coordinate school functions. The Leadership class encompass the duties of a student council (ASB). Our class is composed of four elected officers. All class members, both elected and non-elected, serve on the student council and vote on how school funds are spent.
These students demonstrate excellent citizenship, perform well academically, and are passionate about representing their fellow peers as well as school spirit. In addition, students will have the opportunity to develop their skills as a leader in their school and classroom communities.
