Student Council
GRACE Student Council provides leadership for many school-wide activities and events. Officers are elected from middle and high school.
6th Grade Leadership
Sixth-grade students have the opportunity to participate in a leadership elective for the school year. Students who take that class fulfill the roles and activities of a student council on the Lower Campus. These students are responsible for leading pledges and prayer each morning on the announcement system and in special chapels and assemblies. They meet weekly and lead community outreach and mission projects for the Kindergarten-6th Grade students.
Upper Campus (7-12) Student Council
On the Upper Campus, high school students must demonstrate strong leadership skills in order to run for elections. They must have a clear testimony of their faith and a strong desire to work for their school community. They are interviewed before they are considered for each position. They then are elected by popular vote, based on their campaign in which they are required to deliver speeches in front of their peers. They are held to a high level of conduct, both in their personal lives as well as their academic achievement. Student Council meets weekly to discuss events and current student issues. They also meet with the head of school or principal periodically, in order to communicate concerns or ideas with the administration.
Student Council sponsors school-wide service projects. They also organize class events and a Homecoming dance. In addition, they help build school spirit by implementing activities such as spirit week (Homecoming) and coordinating the decoration of a Homecoming parade float for each grade level.
