Student Council

Teacher Liaison: Ms. Parada
Grades: 5th - 8th
Overview: Bateman's student council is an extracurricular activity used to help voice students' ideas, interests, and concerns with teachers and administration. Student council also helps raise funds for school-wide activities and community projects. The council provides a form to enhance student participation in the life of Bateman School. 
How Are Students Selected: All middle school students are invited to run for student council. The student council consists of one democratically elected party. A party is made up of a President (8th grader), Vice President (8th grader), Secretary (7th grader), and Treasurer (6th grader). Parties are responsible for creating a name and slogan. In addition, two fifth grade Ambassadors will be member of the council but elected separately from the main party.

Junior National Honor Society

Staff Liaison: Mr. Nowak
Grades: 5th - 8th
Founded in 1929, the National Junior Honor Society currently has chapters in all 50 states and more than 70 countries. Its mission is to promote academic excellence, leadership, and service in middle school students. Although similar in nature to the National Honor Society for high school students, it is a separate organization.

At Bateman, students are engaged with service-driven initiatives, such as mentoring, supporting staff and educators after school, and much more! Get involved today!
