Student Advisory Council

This Student Advisory Council (SAC) comprises 20 student leaders from Windber High School and Middle School, who will advocate, plan, and create change at the district and school levels. 

The SAC will meet with the Superintendent and Administration to discuss important District issues involving the whole school community and the impact on our students. Members are selected via recommendations from school principals and staff. Members are encouraged to speak out and talk about issues brought up in their school. They are a branch between students and administration. Learn about new plans formed by district staff, and provide feedback on how they could be changed. Meetings with the Superintendent and administration will occur every quarter.  

Members of the Advisory Council are welcome to discuss ideas to improve our schools. The work is done by students and for students.

SAC Members will:

• Actively participate in 4 meetings per year alongside the Superintendent and staff
• Share input on upcoming policy decisions and operational practices within the Windber Area School District
• Discuss student perspectives on topics impacting the District
• Build relationships with other students throughout the District
• Provide feedback to the Superintendent and administration
• Be responsible for sharing, promoting, and communicating information to students in the community in collaboration with their respective building principals.
