Student Leadership

Student Council

Student Council officers are elected every year from grades 5-8. They serve as liaisons for the school and are actively involved in leading a variety of student activities. Some of their responsibilities include organizing spirit rallies, leading school-wide prayer services and masses, maintaining a comprehensive recycling program, and publishing a school newspaper. Serving on Student Council is a wonderful way for students to get involved, show school spirit, and develop leadership skills.

Safety Patrol

St. Justin School is very proud to participate in the Santa Clara City Safety Patrol Program. This program is coordinated by a member of the Santa Clara Police Department who meets regularly with the students to train them on parking lot safety. Participating students, along with a supervising teacher, serve as crossing guards before and after school to monitor traffic flow and ensure pedestrian safety. 5th grade students participate in this program.

During our 2022-23 school year, our school was selected as Safety Patrol of the Year over 18 other safety patrols in our area.
