Student leadership is something we often don't consider at the elementary level. Over my 7 weeks at Park Street I have come to see how valuable and achievable it can really be to have a Student Council. I observed as students took on the initiative to run for leadership positions and then meet weekly to discuss the issues and events that were relevant to their school community. The students keep record of their meetings and manage their own funds. One of the great fundraisers they planned was for a local girl who was diagnosed with a life-threatening illness. By making banana splits for over 300 students they raised just under $1000. Great work students!
