One of the responsibilities of the Academy Student Council is community service.  In the past, the Academy students have not only helped people in local communities, but also on the other side of the world with the Tsunami victims, cancer patients, and the victims of Hurricane Katrina, Haiti earthquake, clothing drive for Philippines flood victims and more. 

Some of the events sponsored by the 2009-2010 Student Council included a successful Holiday Food Drive.  The many boxes of food were donated to diocesan food pantries and soup kitchens through the Food Network.

From November thru February the student council performed a penny drive raising over $1,000 for the schools education clubs.

October 23rd, 2009 hosted a "Hats on Day" fund raiser donating all the proceeds to the Children's Cancer Foundation.

They also hosted a "Breakfast with Santa" for the youngest members of the school: Pre-K, Kindergarten, and Grade 1.  The children ate a breakfast of french toast sticks, milk and juice before Santa arrived.  Each student was given a small gift from Santa.

The Student Council arranged for the school to draw Earth Day messages on grocery bags that will be distributed by a local supermarket on Earth Day to remind shoppers of the importance of taking care of our planet.

Over the years, the Academy Student Council has performed many humanitarian functions to help those alone or in need locally as well as around the globe. The student council has performed fund raisers, food and clothing drives as well as various feel good initiatives to contribute to disaster relief victims, the homeless, sick, children in need and the elderly.

The Saints Mary and Elizabeth Student Council has been diligent throughout the years in helping their local community and those abroad. We would like to thank all those who have been members and helped throughout the years for their hard work, sacrifice and contributions to help others.

Keep up the work and may God bless their hearts.

Student Council Officers lit candles, recited oaths, and received pins at the induction ceremony.

Annual Food Drive

Students and Student Council Officers help box the collected food under the direction of Mrs. Cannon, Student Council Advisor. 

This year the food will help to replenish the food pantries in the Archdiocese.  Every year the Student Council sponsors a food drive to help families in need as part of the Academy's Quality of Life theme that focuses on service to others.
