Skip to: 04:19 Brief overview of the Pittsburgh Public Schools Student and Government Council
Skip to: 05:55 What are a few of the important messages that students have communicated with the district, city and state leadership since the organization was adopted?
Skip to: 06:48 As a student in the school, how have you been able to get your peers interested in the impact they can make on the local government?
There’s a real passion and drive among us students to get involved as early as we can.
I’ve found that once students learn about opportunities like this, they jump to apply because they really do want to effect change.
Skip to: 09:34 How is the interaction and communication between students from private, parochial and charter schools fostered a more connected district?
So when we’re bringing students together, it creates an opportunity that doesn’t organically happen in the city.
Skip to: 12:52 What was the motivation for starting the Student Advisory Council?
Skip to: 14:19 What has the organization’s biggest accomplishment been during this time?
Skip to: 15:35 What are the objectives of the PPS Student Advisory Council?
Skip to: 18:29 From a student perspective, why is it important to you to have a voice in your school’s leadership?
Skip to: 19:17 What age groups are represented in these organizations?
Skip to: 20:37 What advice would you give to other school districts looking to establish a student voice group?
Students have continued to show that they’re ready, they’re hungry for these opportunities. And their feedback and strategies, especially when they are a part of the change, that’s where meaningful change happens in education.
