The Student government
is formulated through the Associated Student Body (ASB). The ASB council
is made up of seven executive officers, all class officers and club
representatives. The purpose is not to govern the students, but to serve
as a liaison between the student body and administration, where the
students can assume much of the responsibility of organizing their activities.
It is a place where problems or questions arising from either the students
or the administrating can be presented for discussion or consideration.

When the National Honor Society
was founded in 1921, the hope of NASSP was to create an organization that
would recognize and encourage academic achievement while also developing
other characteristics essentials to citizens in a democracy. These ideals
of scholarship, character, service and leadership remain as relevant today
as they were in 1921.
Now, more than 80 years later,
the National Honor Society has become a prestigious organization, ranking
high among administrators, faculty members, students, parents and residents
of the school community. It's reputation for excellence
is the result of years of commitment on the part of everyone involved.
Through NHS chapter service activities, member maintain and extend the
qualities that won them selection. Membership is thus both an honor and
a commitment.
From the National Honor Society handbook , 15th Edition.

The primary purpose of advisory
committees is to promote partnerships between vocational-technical education,
business, labor and the communities they serve. Advisory committees help
students with the skills and abilities they need to enter and succeed
in their chosen occupation. Committees also provide valuable information
needed to respond to local labor market needs.
Advisory committees represent the diversity of business and labor in a
community. Members volunteer their time,talent, and knowledge to help
strengthen and improve vocational-technical education programs.
