Student Government representatives are elected to represent their classes and the school for one school year.

How many Student Government Representatives are there?

The Student Government has eight representatives – one from each grade level (Grades 2 – Grade10).

Responsibilities

The Student Government is responsible for:

• Meeting on a regular basis and maintaining agendas and minutes of meetings
• Planning and implementing school community events
• Educating peers on school rules and procedures
• Establishing a mentoring programme for incoming students
• Communicating requests and concerns brought to them by their peers to the ILG School’ Representative
• Initiating action projects

Eligibility

Students are eligible to participate if they are in good academic and behavioral standing. Additionally, the Student Government representatives are expected to demonstrate a consistent ability to arrive at school on time and have good attendance. Students who are unable to manage these expectations may have participation suspended or they may be removed from their position.

Selection of Student Government Representatives

One representative will be chosen in each grade level following a process of election determined by each homeroom teacher. 

Appointment of Representatives

Students who have been chosen to become the class representative fill in the Student Government Election Permission Form where they choose which position they would like to hold. During the first meeting of the Student Government, these roles will be voted on and confirmed.
