Student Council is a learning opportunity for involving young people in their own school to develop commitments to citizenship, scholarship, leadership, human relationships and cultural values that our heritage may have even greater worth for the next generation. Student Council Meetings are held Thursday afternoons from 3:15 - 4:00. Special projects and leadership workshops involve additional time. Advanced notice will be given. It is my goal to enrich your child's life through leadership skills that will guide their future. We will work closely with Student Council's from other campuses around the district and most especially with the Harlingen High School South Student Council, through a mentoring program we have established. That will give our students positive role models to relate and look up to. Student Council Sponsor - Barbara Guerra

Student Council Guidelines     Each student council member must:        Keep a 75 or above average in each class, each nine-week reporting period.         Keep a passing grade (G or S) in conduct and attitude each nine-week reporting period.        Participate in a minimum number of Community Service projects.        Must be present at all meetings.        Turn in any assignments, forms or permission slips on time.            Any late forms or permission slips will result in a warning.        Follow the Student Council discipline program -                   3 warnings  =  1 strike                   3 strikes  =  you're out (An office referral is an automatic strike. If you receive an In School Suspension or Guidance Center as a consequence, it is 3 strikes.) Remember, Student Council is your responsibility - not your parents'!
