Student council officers are elected freely by pupils themselves as representatives of their collective unit in charge of bringing student affairs to light in regular meetings with the campus Headmistress/ Headmaster.  Office positions at each campus include Head Boy & Girl; Deputy Head Boy & Girl; Prefects and Monitors.  Each year, we hold Student Council elections replete with campaign speeches given by our nominees,  registration of student voters, private voting booths set up in designated areas, and lastly, a fair vote count performed by an impartial committee.  The newly elected Student Officers are then sworn into their lofty positions via a formal Inauguration and Oath-taking Ceremony in front of the entire campus, to impress upon them the expectations of their year-long reign, the gravity of which is best summarized by the adage, "With great power, comes great responsibility."  

 

Indeed, attaining positions of power, highlighting student issues, pushing for the resolutions of ongoing youthful concerns, taking part in special co-curricular activities and playing the agents of change has a dramatic effect on these young leaders who learn to listen to and value different perspectives, develop critical thinking skills needed for solving conundrums, but most imperatively, who find their own voice and moral stand points, which they continuously express confidently and eloquently.

 

Such is the impact of a Nasra-style education: witnessing student empowerment at its best.
