Exploratories : Student Government

I have been sitting in on Student Government the past couple weeks, and while you might think a class of eight kids without a lot of instruction wouldn't get too much done – you'd be surprised. Students have already added multiple lunch options to the menu, including Bosco sticks and sparkling juice. Now they are responsible for inventing a new policy against smoking that expects effective results.  Currently, they are planning the first TLC prom and have many other projects in the works for TLC students such as a mentor program that involves high school students helping out middle school students.   With endless opportunities to exemplify leadership, future successes for the school and individuals is imminent.   So, what's next for Student Government? For TLC?  Keep checking www.tlcpublications.blogspot.com for current updates on how impending decisions by your student body will affect you!

  1. Clarissa,

    I really like the idea of the high school students mentoring middle school students. Everyone wins. From what i have seen, the middle school students will have wonderful mentors. And I have found that mentoring helps the mentor as much as it helps the mentee.

    I was also very impressed with your council's professionalism during my visit last Wednesday.
