Student Government Organization (SGO) Cabinet Members

At HSLPS, the Student Government Organization (SGO) Cabinet members represent student interests and act as spokespersons for their class grades. Our school prides itself on the incredible and active engagement of student leaders who work tirelessly to engage the student body in various student activities and events such as spirit week, new student orientation, homecoming week, school dances, and more.
 
Our Student Government Organization's mission is to also give HSLPS students a voice to help administration, teachers, and staff members in carrying out the school's mission and core values by providing the members of our learning community with a nurturing and safe environment, wherein mutual respect and cultural diversity is honored.
