Student Senate governs students Student Senate is the students' govern ment and the students’ voice to the ad- ministration. Members are elected by their class and have the job of meeting every week to plan ways to represent the needs and desires of the students. Senate is responsible for establishing duties for social events and overseeing extra-curric- ular activities. Senate also makes sugges- tions for policy changes. This year Student Senate established the peer tutoring pro- gram and the Government Club. Senate also participated in the selection of the new superintendent of MCHS.
