Student Government Association
Ms. Lindsey
What is the Student Government
Association?
The SGA is the voice of the Loiederman student
body to administration
Responsible for dances, community service
events, and generating change in the school
Excellent opportunity for learning leadership
and teamwork while working with Ms. Lindsey
Why is the SGA important to me?
The SGA helps to create an environment where you
WANT to be
When you have an idea on how to improve the school,
the SGA helps get that idea to the right people to help
make your idea come alive
The SGA organizes opportunities to have fun in and out
of school, get SSL hours with your friends, and to make
a difference in your school and community
How can I become involved?
Beginning in the next few weeks, you will hear more
information about how you can become a Homeroom
Representative, or the VOICE of your assigned
homeroom.
Each homeroom will elect two people to represent
them in SGA meetings after school and with
administration
These positions have the potential to become
President, Vice President, and Secretary of the SGA
Remember: CHANGE can only start with YOU
