Student Council provides students with the opportunity to demonstrate leadership, group cohesion, and problem solving in a meaningful way by dealing with issues that affect the student body. The role of Student Council is to consider student and community issues, bolster school spirit and pride, contribute to the local neighborhood and further promote The Gow School and the four pillars of Kindness, Respect, Honesty and Hard Work. The Student Council also acts as a body that organizes school activities and provides a forum for discussion of students' ideas and opinions.
The Student Council is student run and guided by a faculty advisor. It is comprised of the Student Council President and Vice President and an elected Class Representative from each grade.
