Student Organization
The Student Organization (S.O.) brings students together and allows them to voice their opinions and to influence administrative decisions made at the school. The Coordinator of Student Affairs (COSA), the S.O. President, the Vice-President, and the Secretary head the Student Organization. To receive co-curricular and extra curricular credit, pick up a co-curricular activities card in the COSA office at the beginning of May. You can also access this form online.
Our major student governing body, the Cabinet, is spearheaded by the S.O. President, Vice-President, and Secretary, and it is advised by COSA. The Cabinet, comprised of nineteen students, meets every day with the Administration to discuss school-wide issues, propose new ideas, and to plan and carry out school events.
The Senate - Each homeroom class elects a Senator who attends Senate meetings once a month, which are run by the S.O. President and the S.O. Vice President. The Senator's job is to offer opinions on proposals, to inform his/her class on school happenings, and to bring issues to the attention of the entire Senate. Senators are divided up into committees, which range from sports, spirit days, school events, etc. These committees are overseen by members of the Student Cabinet.
The Advisory Board is headed by the Student Organization Vice President, and it is comprised of administrators, parents, teachers, and the President of each grade. It focuses on advising the Principal on all matters that pertain to student life and to school-wide issues. Any member of the Bronx Science Community is welcome to attend. The meetings of the Advisory Board are held monthly in the Principal's Office.
Headed by the S.O. Vice President, the Nutritional Council focuses on the school's beautification and cleanliness, and assists the school's nutritionist in selecting meals and snacks to be served in the student cafeteria.
Grade Presidents - Every year, all students elect a president for their respective grades. The Senior Liaison, who is elected by the seniors, is in charge of the incoming freshman class and seeks to facilitate the incoming freshmen's transition to high school. Each president represents his/her respective grades in the Cabinet and serves for the best interest of his/her respective grade. The Presidents also organize school-wide Spirit Days, coordinate fund-raising activities, and plan milestone events such as the Junior Semi-Formal and Prom.
S.O. officers, Junior, Senior, and Grade Representatives are elected at the end of the school year. Freshman and Sophomore Representatives, Senators, and Senior Council Representatives are elected at the beginning of the year in which they will serve..
Extra-Curricular Activities
Club List (Updated 3/10/10) click here Clubs usually meet weekly throughout the school year. Students often devote significant time and energy to clubs of their choice. Many students demonstrate leadership skills as club officers. Clubs and teams allow students to relax, have fun, and get to know fellow Sciencites in a social setting.
Clubs can range from ethnic clubs to clubs of organizations representing particular ideas and interests. Each year new clubs are chartered. If you wish to start your own club, see the Coordinator of Student Affairs for information on creating a club.
