Student Council

The Student Council hosts many activities during the school year, playing an important function on the SVA campus. In addition to organizing and planning social and religious activities for their school division (middle or high school), Student Council members also plan and sponsor assembly programs throughout the year. The student council also acts as the medium through which students can express their concerns about the school program and policies.

Each class selects class representatives to the Student Council. The Student Council President has a standing position on both the high school Faculty Committee and the Board of Trustees (BOT).

Officers and requirements for offices include:

President:

  • must have a 2.5 grade-point average (GPA) based on the previous semester grades
  • must be a junior or senior at SVA in the school year in which he/she is president
  • may not hold multiple offices
  • must be supportive of school rules and policies and not have had a major discipline infraction

Religious Vice-President, Social Vice-President, Secretary/Treasurer, and Public Relations Officer:

  • must have a 2.5 GPA based on the previous semester grades
  • must be a sophomore, junior, or senior at SVA the year in which he/she holds office
  • must be supportive of school rules and policies and not have had a major discipline infraction

Any student that falls below the grade-point average (GPA) requirement in any quarter will be put on probation and removed from any office if the GPA is not raised by the end of the next quarter.
