Freshmen Student Council Elections

Class of 2027 
is INVITED to be a part of the Freshman Class Council and Student Leadership this year.  

We hope that many of you will want to be a part of the spirit and culture of San Miguel High School by finding ways to stay connected with your classmates this year through Freshman Class Council.

“Inspire and lead others by encouraging them.” - St. John Baptist de La Salle

Goals of Student Leadership: 

Advocate and collaborate with your peers and represent their ideas in a positive way.
Through school spirit, inspire and encourage your peers to be involved in our San Miguel community.
Learn and apply the skills required to be a successful leader.  
 
Without you, we would not be able to achieve these goals; change only happens if there are enough student leaders who are willing to lead and motivate your fellow class members.  We hope you are willing to answer the call to lead.
