Grade level: 9-12

Course Length: 1 year
Prerequisite: None
Course Fee: No

Student Council is a year long course. Elections, which are held during spring semester, determine who will serve their class for the upcoming year. Homecoming, graduation, parking lot, student planner, and prom are a few of the activities that are planned and carried out by Student Government. Often, Student Government members serve on building and district committees representing the student body on such issues as graduation requirements, grading system guidelines, and other issues that affect BHS students on a daily basis. There is a substantial amount of time spent outside the classroom planning and carrying out activities. Students will also have the opportunity to improve their leadership skills through workshops and conferences.
