Lewisburg High School student council reports winter activities, blood drive and upcoming elections
Summary
A student council representative updated the board on recent events including homecoming, staff appreciation activities, a December blood drive with 24 units donated and plans for a portable photo‑booth purchase and upcoming student elections.
A representative of the Lewisburg High School student council briefed the board on student government activity since the group last appeared in October, describing holiday events, staff appreciation efforts, a student‑run blood drive and plans for elections and long‑term purchases.
The student council representative said the group held staff appreciation events tied to homecoming, arranged a homeroom decorating contest with trophies for winners in each grade, and ran a Secret Dragon/Secret‑Santa style gift swap that included 16 student council members and 14 staff members. The representative said the council organized a group shopping trip so the council purchased holiday gifts for staff rather than relying on individual students, which increased participation.
On March 14 the council ran a blood drive in partnership with the Red Cross and reported 24 units donated; the student speaker thanked Domino’s for donating 10 pizzas to the event. "We had 24 units donated, a great experience with the Red Cross, and Domino's donated 10 pizzas to us," the student representative said.
The council described a new committee structure intended to rely less on full council meetings and more on community‑based committees. Committees now include homecoming, student services, social media, staff appreciation and club outreach; subcommittees manage events such as the blood drive and the Mr. Lewisburg talent show. The representative said student council elections are scheduled for April with class elections in May and the council is considering a long‑term purchase — a portable photo booth to be stored in the student council closet and loaned for events.
The student representative closed by thanking the board and saying student council looks forward to finishing the year and handing leadership to the next council following elections.
