Vision:
The KJH Student Council is a student-led organization for responsible, diligent, fun-loving Jr High schoolers dedicated to the improvement of the Jr High School student body experience, student leadership building, and the outreach and aid of our community.

Member Dedication:
As part of KJH StuCo, members must exhibit dedication and responsibility and act as school leaders  and students. Council members direct the creation of multiple school-wide activities such as dances, anti-drug campaigns, and service project fundraisers. KJH StuCo is for the most dedicated and virtuous of students. 

The School Experience:
Everyday at school, students are affected by negative influences. This may include drug usage, bullying, or racial profiling. It is our job to help our fellow student body by reducing these stresses and increasing the positive influences. We envision a school where students, teachers, and administrators can work in an environment of cooperation and ease.

Community Outreach:
Along with enhancing student lives, KJH StuCo also strives to reach out and help the community. StuCo members are expected to not only to be school leaders but also to be community leaders. Dulles KJH StuCo has partnered with many volunteer organizations in the past. As such, members frequently volunteer in community events and experience the selfless feeling of volunteerism. 

And Fun:
While being leaders, StuCo is about being yourself!  By being part of StuCo, you must be able to have fun and enjoy!
