C.H.E  Student Government

They conduct three fund-raisers during the school year: the pumpkin auction, the Valentine sucker sale, and the spring chocolate bunny sale. These monies will be used to develop an art gallery in the school’s foyer which will showcase student artwork. A ten-foot knight, Sir Learn-a-Lot, was recently purchased. Last year nearly $1,000 was raised for the Leukemia Foundation.

Student Government members are also kept busy planning many fun activities for the student body. The Thanksgiving Food Drive, Adopt-a-Family Angel Tree, Leprechaun for a Day, Sports Day, Random Acts of Kindness Week, and Read-a-thons are a few of the many projects they have sponsored.

The Castle Heights Student Government members are taught and perform parliamentary procedure during each meeting. They learn to work cooperatively and independently, developing skills necessary for interacting with others. They learn and practice responsibility and organizational skills. The students learn to set priorities, identify goals, and approach tasks by actively participating in all student government activities. Since no school time is provided for meetings, the twelve members graciously meet during their lunch time on Tuesdays.
