Walt Whitman High School Student Government Association

The Student Government Association is the official representative body of Walt Whitman students and an avenue of communication between students and staff. The principal duty of the SGA is to learn about and discuss all students' views when meeting with the administration.

It is an elected group, made up of SGA officers, class officers, and delegates elected from each first period class. Generally, the SGA meets every other week. SGA and class officers, except Freshmen, are elected in the spring. Freshman class officers and first period delegates and their alternates are elected after school begins in the fall.

The SGA also charters clubs and sponsors assemblies, speakers, movies, clean-up campaigns, spirit week, coffee houses, dances, and other social and service events.
