Student Council

Student Council is group of highly motivated students who strive to better the school through exemplary leadership and dedication to school improvement. It's a year-long commitment that requires involvement in and out of school. Student Council members are held to a higher standard and are constant reflections of great leadership inside and outside of school.

All members, grades 3-8, participate in events such as  monthly school spirit, quarterly projects to benefit the community, school religion retreats, the parish/school carnival, fall festival, and lead school tours at open houses.

Meetings are held on the first and third Wednesday of each month. 

8TH Grade / Student Council / NJHS seem to include almost all the same students, but they don’t, really. Student Council/NJHS boasts over 40 students this year. They have, under the guidance of our 8th graders, led the school in major fundraisers, all-school clean-up and tour committees, and all the while, maintained their routine of daily responsibilities.

Student Council/NJHS sponsors the “Primary Events” for Pre – K through 2nd Grade. These duties include monthly arts and crafts projects. Scavenger hunts, and storytime sessions. Routine weekly duties remain our Links of Kindness project, recycling, Mass collections, morning prayer, and a soon-to-be-opened student bookstore.

The two major fundraisers we have completed this year are the annual Thanksgiving Food Drive and a surprise project for the St. Vincent De Paul Society: Macaroni Mountain! The students collected record amounts of food for the hungry.

Upcoming projects for the year will include the Toy and Baby Needs Drive in the Spring and our Induction ceremony in the 3rd quarter and Student Council elections in the Spring.
