Student Council Advisors
Mrs. Kanupp, Mrs. Abernathy , and Miss Bailey
Ten years ago, Gamewell Elementary had the idea to engage students in community service involving their school and community by choosing students with A/B academic averages, superior conduct, remarkable attendance, responsibility, and a recommendation from their teacher.  With those given qualities, we have become GES Student Council.

For the past five years, students have been asked to write a one page essay explaining why they should be chosen to be in Student Council, what it would mean to them to be a member, and the importance of being involved in their community.

Students also run for various offices, such as President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Sergeant of Arms.  Students are reposnsible for campaigning, making posters, and preparing a speech regarding their campaign.

Students meet bi-weekly, on Tuesdays, from 2:25-3:30 in Mrs. Kanupp's room.  During these meetings, students work around the school with beautification, recycling paper and aluminum, and discussing future projects.  Student Council also collects can tabs for the Ronald McDonald House.  These tabs will be used for patient treatments and costs of room/board for families of children that are terminally ill.  We could use your help!!
