student councils
Elected pupil bodies
Student councils are elected bodies of students who represent their peers in school governance.
They organize events, voice student concerns to administrators, and provide experience in democratic processes.
The singular student council refers to the organization itself: She ran for student council president.
The work is often ceremonial, with limited real authority.
