Student Council is the voice of Westside students. Students can and should become involved in their school. Members of the Student Council, working with the teachers and principal, identify possible ways of improving their school and helping the community. Each fall every class elects a room representative to serve on Student Council. Each spring the entire student body elects a president and secretary from the incoming fifth grade classes for the following year. A vice-president and treasurer are elected from the incoming fourth grade classes. Two historians are elected, one each from incoming fourth and fifth grade classes. Through the Student Council, students are provided an opportunity to serve in a leadership capacity at all grade levels.
