ASB Structure

Bishop Alemany ASB 

 

The Student Government at Bishop Alemany is comprised of two groups: Elected Officers and Commissioners. Each position has a unique set of responsibilities; however all positions work together to form the Associated Student Body.  ASB meets various days before school and after classes to accomplish both meetings and projects

 

The Associated Student Body (ASB) is an opportunity for students to be involved in the day–to-day governance of Alemany and in a variety of special events. ASB represents the entire student body population and act as a liaison to the Administration and community. The Associated Student Body works to assist in furthering the school’s mission, provide constructive input, as well as design and coordinate student activities and community events. 

 

Executive Student Body Officers

The Executive Student Body Officers hold the four highest positions in ASB and report directly to the ASB Director and Administration. This school year Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors will elect the ASB President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer for the 2022-2023 school year. 

 

The ASB Officers spend an average of 8 to 15 hours a week planning and overseeing school events including but not limited to: Athletic Events, Rallies, Dances, Intramurals, School Spirit and Community Outreach Events. Due to the amount of prior knowledge needed to fulfill these offices, one-year prior experience in ASB is required. For students without prior ASB experience that are still interested in running for secretary or treasurer, you may meet with Mrs. Corcoran to discuss options.

  

General ASB Commissioners

All students appointed or elected to ASB will be involved in every ASB event. Every ASB student, regardless of office, will be required to prepare, set-up, conduct, and clean-up every single ASB event. You will also have the opportunity to serve on various committees, even if they do not fall under your specific commission.
