The SDHSAA Outstanding Student Council recognition program was created during the 1990-91 school year as a means of recognizing those student councils that meet the program’s specified criteria. Those schools receiving the Outstanding Student Council designation have met standards of having well-rounded programs that benefit their school, their community, and the state. The Outstanding Student Council program consists of a self-evaluation of the activities and involvement by each participating student council.
