Student Council
Student Council is a great way to become involved at Eisenhower School. This club serves as a governing body for the entire school population. We continually promote school spirit and help students stay closely connected with teachers and administrators here at Eisenhower Intermediate School. Student Council is a great way to get to know the students, teachers, & staff at Eisenhower. If you are interested in being a representative, you will write a short speech to give to your classmates and complete a short application. If you are elected, you will join our Student Council Google Classroom. Your HR teacher will have more information on this process.
Student Council is run by Ms. Patullo and Mrs. Ronning. It will meet on Friday mornings, usually two times a month, and on occasional additional mornings/afternoons for special projects. Meetings will begin at 8:45 am in the library. A schedule of meeting dates will be distributed at our first meeting, but our first meeting will be Friday, October 7th. They will also be posted to our Google Classroom page.
