What does
Student Council do?
Student Council is a service organization with in Caņon City High
School. At the beginning of the year Student Council puts on fun
activities for Freshman day. Student Council puts on Homecoming
Week and Springfest Week, but NOT prom. In addition to dances and
spirit weeks, Student Council aims for one or two student activities a
month. However, Student Council not only does things for students,
but for teachers too! At the end of each year Student Council
hosts an appreciation banquet in honor of our retirees and our

School. In attempt to keep our school looking nice and comforting, each
Student Council Member is required to do one school improvement
project.
