The Superintendent's Student Advisory Council

The Southwest ISD Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council is a unique and valuable opportunity for students in grades 10-12 to have their voices heard and make a meaningful impact on the future of their school district. This council allows students to work directly with Dr. Ball, the district's Superintendent, to provide input, share ideas, and discuss important decisions that shape the district’s policies, programs, and initiatives.

Dr. Ball is deeply committed to fostering student engagement, recognizing that students bring invaluable perspectives. She believes that involving students in the decision-making process creates a stronger, more inclusive environment where the entire community—students, teachers, and administrators—can grow and thrive together. Every decision made by the district is centered on what is best for the students, making their voices critical in shaping the direction of Southwest ISD.

The Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council is designed to reflect the diversity of Southwest ISD's student population. Students from every high school and various backgrounds are encouraged to apply. This ensures that a wide range of viewpoints are represented, helping the district address the needs of all students more effectively. By participating in this council, students cannot only influence important decisions but also build valuable leadership skills, learn about district operations, and actively shape the future of education in their community.

Members of the advisory council will voice their perspectives on key district initiatives, provide feedback on student-related issues, and even have opportunities to propose new ideas that could benefit their peers. This experience offers a unique opportunity to grow personally and academically, preparing students to become school leaders and beyond.
