Student Government: Developing A Student Government In An Urban Elementary School, Nicole Lenee Sykes
Student Government: Developing A Student Government In An Urban Elementary School, Nicole Lenee Sykes
All Graduate Projects
School community is critically important for healthy adolescent development. School connectedness has been found to be even more powerful than family connectedness in terms of protection against acting out behaviors in adolescence (Harrison & Narayan, 2003 ). Increasing student involvement in urban elementary settings through student government would unify students, communities, parents and staff. Establishing a student government in an urban school setting promotes student voice, student interest and helps tie community and staff together. The importance of belonging is essential in providing a safe and productive educational environment.
