Student Council
STUCO Information
Orrick Student Council is comprised of 7th - 12th-grade students.
The OHS Student Council is a Missouri Association of Student Councils (MASC) member and a part of the MASC Northwest District.
MASC’s mission is to provide programs and resources that develop positive student leaders and advisors who will promote a quality school and community environment. We believe it is important for a student council to promote a positive learning environment and build a school culture where students and staff are comfortable.
MASC works to instill the core values of our organization into our schools and their members: Inspire Greatness. Serve Others. Be More. Lead. (macs1.org)
