Student Council for 4th-5th Grade Students


Calling all parents of fourth and fifth graders! Is your student responsible? Does your student like to be involved in making decisions that affect our campus? Does your student love attending school events, and helping at those events? If so, they may be interested in running for a Student Council officer position! The Student Council co-facilitators will be Mrs. K and Mrs. Palin this year. Mrs. K and Mrs. Palin will be holding an informational meeting this week on Tuesday during lunch for fourth and fifth grade students who may be interested in running for student council, and who want to learn about the election process! Students will learn about the different officer positions they may run for, how the campaigning and election process will take place, and we will go over their Student Council application. 


Students must be in attendance at this meeting if they would like the opportunity to run for an officer position, as their applications will be due this week on Friday, September 1st! Please reach out to Mrs. K or Mrs. Palin with any questions you may have! They are both so excited to work with your students, and to get our 2023-2024 Student Council underway!

Parents, please remain in your vehicle.  Students should be exiting on the passenger side.

Please pull all the way forward to allow for the maximum number of cars to drop off students safely at once.

Please use the designated parking spots and legal parking areas if you are going to get out of your vehicle to walk your student to the entrance.

Please refrain from parking in the entrance area, exit area or red zones.  

Always watch for students.  Student safety is the number one priority.

Please say your goodbyes to your student before they cross into campus at the gate. Kindergarten parents line up with students on the black top. TK parents, may provide breakfast support in the MPR, but please exit out of the front black top gate to line up for TK entry and greeting with Mrs. Phillipson.
