About the Council Members:
The Super STARS Council features students with exemplary leadership ability and a desire to see positive change in public education.
State Superintendent of Schools Michele L. Blatt has established the inaugural Super STARS (Students Taking Action for Readiness and Success) Council that will be comprised of Grades 6–12 students. This is a student-led council that elevates student insights and ensures that their perspectives are heard by education leaders to impact initiatives, policies, and programs. Comprised of students from across the state, the council will provide diverse perspectives on public education throughout West Virginia.
The Super STARS Council will consist of 12-15 students, and it will:
-
Ensure direct student feedback is heard by the State Superintendent and West Virginia Department of Education leadership
- Inform decision-making on key initiatives
- Elevate student voice in areas such as school culture, program development, and instruction
- Strengthen connections between students, schools, and statewide priorities
