Students Lead

Want to be an ambassador for Branson? Every year, 10th, 11th, and 12th graders join the Admissions team to share their diverse experiences and perspectives on campus life with 8th grade visitors and their families. As an admissions intern, you'll answer questions on student panels, tour visiting students and parent around campus, help host open houses, and participate in off-campus events. Come join the Admissions team and show our prospective students and families all the things that make Branson great!

Connecting with members of our community with like experiences can provide insights and support. Students lead affinity spaces, in partnership with faculty and staff, that are centered around the exploration and celebration of specific aspects of identity—race/ethnicity, class, gender, sexual orientation, ability, religion, size, nationality, family status, and more. Each year, students create new spaces and programming as this program continues to grow and change, in reflection of our increasingly diverse Branson community.

Created and run by students (with support from faculty/ staff advisors), clubs are a great way to meet people that share your interests. Each year, Branson hosts over 40 clubs for every interest imaginable. Love fly fishing? Ping pong tournaments? Working to save the environment? Mentoring young children? We've got a club for you. And if you don't find one you love, it's easy to create a new one!

Branson's Community Honor Board (CHB) is a student led body including members from each class who are elected annually. As a member of CHB you will work with your peers to uphold Branson's Honor Code and address academic and behavioral issues through a restorative justice lens. 

Branson students will participate in co-leading our new Immersives program launching in the spring of 2022. Learn more.

The mission of the Mental Health Alliance is to open up and to destigmatize conversations around mental health at Branson. As a member of this student-led group you will work to spread awareness, share resources, and start having the difficult conversations around mental health and wellness to support everyone in our community.

The Student DEI Committee advises Branson leadership on questions pertaining to the student experience of diversity, equity, and inclusion at Branson. This group created and coordinated Branson's first Youth Forum/ Symposium in the spring of 2021, and planning is now underway for the 2022 event.

In conjunction with Student Senate and the Community Honor Board, SLAB works closely with the Dean of Student Life to tackle questions that are particularly relevant to the student experience. If you want to influence student life at Branson, with the ear of the school administration, this is a group to get involved wtih.

Getting involved in student government is a great way to practice your leadership at Branson. Elected officers from each class, class spirit captains, and student body leaders work together to plan activities for their class or the student body, and also problem-solve student life challenges as they arise. These are very visible roles; student body presidents lead weekly assemblies and class presidents collaborate with their deans and the Parents' Association on a variety of events and initiatives.
