AISL Student Government

Elementary Student Council

Hand in Hand

The AISL Elementary Student Council gives students an introduction to the very basic concepts of self- government. We encourage the students’ awareness of community, both within the school and in the larger community. The Student Council works hard, and SC representatives have a lot of fun working together. Elementary Student Council is a great way for students to improve their leadership and public speaking skills by getting them involved with the community at a very early age.

Each first through fifth grade class sends two representatives to a lunch-period meeting as needed. These class reps report back to their classmates.

During the school year, 6 students from each class have the opportunity to represent their fellow classmates, two per trimester. These students pass info regarding raising money through walk-a-thons, bake sales, and other activities. The funds are distributed with a minor portion going to a project within the school, and the larger portion going to projects within Lagos.

Reaching Out

Student Council coordinated a couple of projects with Mr. Phipps, high school counselor, during school year 2008-09. The Holiday Food/Other Drive was conducted for a week, and tremendous amounts of donations were received from the community. The recipients were the school children of the Kiri-Kiri Project. Intra-school donations were given to all elementary classes for their shopping @the Book Fair and the Spelling Bee Committee., and the Run Towards A Cure project. The Elementary Student Council were extremely proud of the amount raised thru a fund-raising event “Leap-a-thon” to donate to various AISL school projects and charities within Lagos and the Run Towards A Cure project for a mammogram machine. A fantastic job indeed with the class representatives leading the whole elementary school!!!

Middle School Student Senate

Student Senate meets weekly to discuss dance themes, charity fund raisers, and service projects to promote a positive, proactive community. Officers and representatives are chosen in September of each school year to lead the Middle School at AISL. Students organize and share job responsibilities for dances, lead food drives, coordinate parent chaperones and volunteer their time to make both AISL and the Lagos Community a better place.
