Being part of an elementary Student Council is a great way for kids to learn important life skills, like leadership, citizenship, cooperation, and responsibility. These leaders are the voice of your student body and serve an important role in your school. Here are 5 easy ways to recognize your Student Council members for all the work they do to make your school great:\"Andersons_BanquetAwards\"<\/a><\/p>\n

1) Introduction Assembly
\n<\/strong>Hold a school-wide assembly at the beginning of the year to introduce the Student Council members for the year.Hand out Student Council award pins<\/a> that members and class representatives can wear all year long to identify their special status.<\/p>\n

2) Special Awards For Classroom Representatives
\n<\/strong>Many schools also elect representatives from each classroom to attend Student Council meetings and be the voice for their classroom. Hand out wristbands<\/a> to identify classroom reps, so students know who to go to with concerns, suggestions, and ideas.<\/p>\n

3) In-school Display
\n<\/strong>Designate a wall or bulletin board especially for your Student Council members and Classroom Representatives. Display a picture and short bio of each person. This is a great way to recognize your student leaders and identify them to the rest of the student body.<\/p>\n

4) Mid-year Event
\n<\/strong>Keep your Student Council members excited and motivated by hosting a mid-year event just for them. Whether it\u2019s a winter banquet, a holiday party, or even an after-school trip to the movies, your Student Council members will love the acknowledgement. Give them each a fun gift, like dog tags<\/a>, for all the hard work they have done so far.<\/p>\n
