The South Dakota High School Activities Association (SDHSAA) announced that 31 South Dakota high school student councils have been recognized as being ?Outstanding Student Councils? for the 2012-13 school year. This is the 23rd year this statewide program has been sponsored by the SDHSAA to recognize those South Dakota high school student councils that meet or exceed the rigorous standards of excellence that are necessary to achieve the ?Outstanding Student Council? designation. Student councils that achieve this recognition can best be described as being very active within their school and community throughout the school year. Outstanding Councils excel in having a well-rounded program of activities and projects which benefit both their school and their community throughout the school year.
The ?SDHSAA Outstanding Student Council? program requires each participating student council to complete a self-evaluation of their organizational structure and their successful completion of projects in a variety of areas. The evaluation also considers the involvement of the student council in their school and community. James Weaver, SDHSAA Assistant Executive Director, stated ?The High School Activities Association recognizes the student councils that have met the stringent standards and criteria demanded by this program. The 31 student councils that have been recognized this year, are well organized, highly motivated and have met the rigorous standards necessary to be declared outstanding. The self-evaluation focuses on the structure of the student council as well as the positive involvement of the student council in the activities of their school and community.?
To be recognized as an ?Outstanding Student Council?, each council was involved in projects in the areas such as ?Community and School Service?, ?Health, Safety or Chemical Awareness?, ?Education?, ?Leadership?. Completion of projects in a wide range of areas was necessary to fulfill a variety of goals for the student council. Each school receiving the ?SDHSAA Outstanding Student Council? award has demonstrated a desire for self-improvement and individual growth by participating in leadership workshops and conventions, as well as other educational programs.
