Student Government


student 6At Friends Meeting School our intention is to empower students to be active in the creation of the School and classes they want. We listen carefully to our students and take very seriously any issues, concerns, or desires that they raise. The students elected to the Student Government are the collective voice for the student body.

The Student Government at FMS is an active group. Student representatives are elected from among the High School and Middle School grades early in the academic year. In addition to representing their classmates, they are also responsible for organizing dances and fund raising activities associated with their activities and class trips. The Student Government officers represent our School before community and civic groups, visiting students and parents, the administration, and the Board of Trustees. 

All students are encouraged to run for office if they are interested. The elections are integrated into lesson plans and provide opportunities for all students to examine current issues, speech writing, public speaking, marketing and visual arts.
