Student Leadership Opportunity

Thu, 09/28/2023 - 8:09pm

Attention Glenwood Students!

Are you interested in a student leadership opportunity?  Would you like to represent Glenwood at a monthly meeting, made up of student representatives from schools across Howard County?  If so, keep reading!

Each month the Howard County Association of Student Council (HCASC) meets, and we’re looking for a student to represent our school.

HCASC meetings provide students the opportunity to:

  • Empower students with the habits of heart and mind it takes to serve as engaged and informed citizens

  • Collaborate with student and community leaders from across HCPSS

  • Discuss current events impacting HCPSS students

  • Share knowledge based, actionable feedback and ideas directly with the Student Member of the Board of Education (SMOB) and other HCPSS leaders

  • Pair students with actionable steps they can take to achieve their goals, such as:

    • Collaborate with their school-based administrators

    • Provide testimony to elected officials

    • Connect to HCPSS staff,  community organization, or an elected official,

    • Join one of our committees where they can work to create change in Howard County

The monthly HCASC schedule is below. Meetings are held in person, or virtually from 7:00 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.:

  • October 18, 2023: Glenelg HS

  • November 15, 2023: Homewood
