• The Student Ambassador program is a great way to show leadership at our school, while helping build a strong sense of community.  As a Student Ambassador, you will help assist with arrival and dismissal procedures, while helping to model safe and responsible actions for your peers.  Student Ambassadors will also have the opportunity to participate in leadership training activities at our school.

    Here are what some of your responsibilities may include:

    • Greeting students in the morning

    • Helping younger students on and off the bus

    • Opening car doors for students in the carpool

    • Opening doors for students going into school

    • Being a line leader for our afternoon bus dismissal

    • Collecting the recycling

    • Raising and lowering the American Flag at school

    • Participating as a Peer Tutor 

    In order to participate, you must be able to arrive at school by 7:45 (if you work in the morning), or be able to be picked up at 3:30 (if you work in the afternoon).  If you ride a morning bus that is one of the first to arrive in the morning, or if your bus is one of the last ones called in the afternoon, you may participate as well.  We do ask that if you commit to the Student Ambassador program, that you are able to participate every day that you are tracked in.  

    As leaders of the school, we are looking for students who demonstrate the following character traits consistently while participating in the Student Ambassador program:

    • Demonstrates respect for all

    • Holds herself/himself accountable

    • Demonstrates safe and responsible actions

    • Wants to build a strong sense of community at Heritage Elementary

    • Has a desire to demonstrate leadership qualities

    This program is designed for 4th and 5th graders to demonstrate leadership in our school. 4th Graders will be able to begin their application process starting in the spring, while 5th graders can apply during all application periods. Check back at the end of Quarter 1 to see when the student ambassador application period will open. Your teacher will also remind you of the application window when it opens.
