Student Council
St. Isaac’s Student Council is proud to be a member of the Illinois Association of Junior High Student Councils (IAJHSC). For over twenty-one years, our council has earned the designation of Honor Council. It is awarded to those councils who show exemplary participation in the areas of student leadership, service, and responsibility. St. Isaac’s council members demonstrate the ideals promoted by IAJHSC simply by following the teachings of the Church. We are dedicated to being leaders who bring Christ’s light to the world. All grade levels are represented by our council members. Grades 6-8 are voting members, and Eighth grade students are elected to serve on the Executive Board. Our representatives are elected from grades 6-8 and serve as not only their homeroom representatives, but also as liaisons to Kindergarten through fifth grades.
Our council meets on Wednesday mornings at 7:00 a.m. and in special sessions when planning activities for Catholic Schools Week or service projects. We learn and operated under Roberts Rules of Order. Some of our favorite activities include dances, Deck the Halls (where we spread Christmas cheer), dodge-ball tournaments, and movie nights. Student Council also serves as the St. Isaac’s recycling group, babysitters for Parent-Teacher Conferences, and the organizing body for Move Your Feet (our diocesan program to provide scholarships to students attending Catholic schools in the Diocese of Joliet.) Our President and Vice-President meet often with the school’s administration and our board members provide a conduit for student communication.
Student Council is a strong and consistent presence at St. Isaac Jogues School. We are proud of our legacies. Many of our students go on to serve in student government at both the high school and college levels.
