About the Program
East High Student Council is a student government organization comprised of approximately 50-60 students from grade levels 9-12. Representatives are chosen through both application and election processes. Students are held to high standards of participation, character, leadership, and academic achievement. The focus of the group is student leadership with an emphasis on community service. Our student council plans and implements numerous events throughout the school year to support our student body and promote school spirit.
