Ferry Farm's Student Council was established in 1998. It consists of one student from each third grade class, two students from each fourth grade class and three students from each fifth grade class. Our Student Council gives students an opportunity to make a difference. Each year they pick at least one Community Service Project and one Fundraising Project; they plan, coordinate and advertise for Spirit Week; and they work to make a difference at Ferry Farm. Students are taught parliamentary procedure and learn they are representing their classes, not themselves. Students also learn cooperation, dependability and most of all, responsibility.
