Thirty-one students from the 6th-12th grades were recently elected to serve on the 2021-2022 Student Council and the week of November 15 they visited various classrooms to launch their first service project — a Christmas hat drive to collect and donate children’s hats to raise awareness for childhood cancer and benefit the nonprofit, Ellie’s Hats.

Elections for the Student Council were held on September 17 and the officers began meeting with Student Council Advisor Dave Genter on October 8 to plan their community service activities and to identify ways they can enrich the spiritual life of the school.

One leadership activity includes Student Council members offering the prayer during the daily morning announcements. Student Council officers also represented their fellow students at the Veterans Appreciation Breakfast on November 11, welcoming and engaging with the veterans as they sat at various tables and shared breakfast together before the Veterans Chapel.

Genter said the students also plan to lead a school-wide community service project in the spring that will benefit the school. Congratulations to the following Student Council officers:
