Leadership
Student Council
Mr. Matt Sammartino, Main Office
The Ursuline Student Council serves as the school’s student government. Students involved in this organization learn the skills of leadership and organization by becoming actively involved in planning activities that encourage school unity, spirit, and service. It also is the principle vehicle whereby students communicate their concerns to the faculty and administration.
A six member executive board, elected by the current student council in the spring, governs the council. Each class elects four officers and six representatives during elections in the spring of each year. Freshman elections are held in early September. Eligibility is based on grade point average and conduct grades.

Liturgy Committee
Mrs. Linda Miller, Room 222
The Liturgy Committee, made up of all student volunteers under the guidance of Mrs. Linda Miller, meets after school to plan school Masses and Prayer Services. Students receive training from Mrs. Fran Amer, Diocesan Director of Worship, in order to become familiar with use of the Catholic Liturgical order, Liturgical Calendar, and elements of the Mass than can be adapted for school use. Members of the Liturgy Committee support our worship experience with their creativity and leadership. Students interested in joining the Liturgy Committee may sign up on the Liturgical Survey in August through their religion class.
