What is Student Council?
by Jessenia Varela Gomez
Fresno High Schools very own Student Council is back and ready to serve all students at Fresno High. The question a lot of students have is “What exactly is Student Council and how is it even beneficial to them?”
Student council started in the early 2000s and was brought back to Fresno High in 2023. It is organized by Mrs. Bangerter and ASB as a way for students to have the ability to voice their concerns. At the beginning of the school year, teachers were instructed to either elect or allow a student to apply to be their fourth period student representative. The process includes a meeting once the first week of every month to discuss campus events and issues. During which students' representatives have the chance to be their class's voice and share the issues within the campus environment. This ranges from lunch time activities to bathroom issues, the cleanliness of the campus, and even lunch problems. They can also represent their clubs or sports and share valuable information. All of which is then included in the class meeting presentation which is on Wednesday of the same week during their fourth period class. This presentation goes over school events and student concerns.
How does it benefit students? By giving them the chance to share their thoughts with their representatives who can then share them with the rest of the council and the administration to help work on finding effective solutions to these issues.
Organizer Mrs. Bangerter said, “We wanted to bring it back because it is an important opportunity for students to share their opinions, ask questions and raise concerns in an open forum that is safe, welcoming and supportive.”
