The purpose of the Youth Advocacy Group is to strengthen the partnership and collaboration between students and school administration to develop a healthy environment of learning, respect, and clear behavior guidelines. The group will meet regularly to discuss current, relevant issues that prohibit or strengthen a healthy learning environment.
