Student Advisory Council

State School Superintendent Richard Woods seeks students in grades 10-12 to serve on his 2024-2025 Student Advisory Council. These students will meet with Superintendent Woods to discuss the impact of state policies in the classroom and other education-related issues. They will serve as the Superintendent's ambassadors to their respective schools.

Applicants must be enrolled in a Georgia public high school (including charter schools) for the 2024-2025 school year as a sophomore, junior, or senior. Virtual learning students are still considered enrolled. The Student Advisory Council will meet four times in person during the school year; meeting dates are listed in the application.

“Student Advisory Council allows students to share their feedback directly with me and other state leaders and to help shape the future of education in Georgia," Superintendent Woods said. "We want to hear from students about what’s working, what’s not, and what we can do to make our schools better places to learn. Meeting and learning about each council member are highlights of my work. Their feedback, opinions, and perspectives provide insight Georgia Department of Education leadership, staff, and I use to make the best possible policy choices."
