Allatoona High School “The Helm”
Executive Committee “Class Officers” Application
Before committing to be a member of the Executive Committee, consider your responsibilities for this year. The Helm will need to be an important priority for you. Your responsibilities to the HELM activities are important and will require your attention and participation. Executive Committee, as leaders of the HELM, has a higher obligation than general membership. Think about how you will give the several hours needed each week for meetings, projects, and your responsibilities when you may also be involved in sports, other organizations, or a job. We want you to be involved, but don’t commit to more responsibilities than you can cover. We want you to succeed academically, morally, and socially.
General Executive Committee Member Responsibilities:
1. Be a leader of character!
2. Attend all AHS HELM meetings and sponsored activities.
3. Be a vital link of information: Report on all activities of the ASG to the student body.
4. Place AHS HELM on a high priority. Executive Committee must maintain an 80% or higher participation rate each month.
5. Support all school-related activities.
6. Listen to the concerns of the group you represent at all times and express these views in AHS HELM meetings.
7. Motivating force for all School activities.
