| The
SAA is the student activity governing body. It
is comprised of representatives from each class. Students on the
SAA speak for the entire student body. They meet once
a month for the purpose of conducting regular business and other
matters which may be brought before it for consideration. The
Student Council must approve each Student Activity Program. All
requests for fund-raising, student activities, and purchases made
from student activity funds must be approved by the Student Council. The
Student Council also has two members who attend the COC Student
Senate meetings and Student Congress from the Connecticut Technical
High Schools. These students keep the school in touch with area
schools with similar extracurricular and interscholastic programs.
