Ms. Nordman
Student Organization (S.O.)
Since a school’s most important stakeholders are its students, it is important that students feel invested in their school’s culture. With this goal in mind, M.S. 172 is host to a vibrant and active Student Organization. With over 800 members, an executive board, and officers representing each homeroom, the S.O. goes a long way in promoting engagement among our students. It is a true exercise in representative democracy. Officers meet to to discuss ideas as well as news of upcoming events are meaningfully shared. It is the officers’ responsibility to relay that information to their homeroom classes, and in turn, get feedback from their own constituents. Students are always encouraged to bring new ideas to the table, and the S.O. is the avenue through which this is accomplished.
S.O. Events
The Student Organization organizes, promotes, and carries out a wide array of activities that are “fun with a purpose.” Dances and monthly spirit days inject into our culture a sense of excitement that is unique to our school. The S.O. also strongly believes in giving back to the community. For many years, the S.O. has raised money for various worthy causes such as the Ronald McDonald House and Penny Harvest.
We encourage all students to join! Please look out for the membership envelopes on the first day of school.
If you have any questions, please see Ms. Nordman in room 317.
