Leadership During School Closures
Scott Backovich would have been the Keynote Speaker for the NCASC State Convention.
He has graciously shared some wonderful activities that Student Councils, via social media,
can do during the time schools are closed due to the coronavirus pandemic emergency.
NCASC strongly encourages Student Councils to remain active and continue to show leadership during this difficult and challenging time.
This is a golden opportunity to demonstrate to your student body and school administration the value of student leaders and the training opportunities, such as the State Convention, that the NCASC provides.
Now is the time to appropriately utilize social media to provide a vital service to the members of your student body. Let's see which schools will step up to meet this challenge!

A word from Scott Backovich
"Looking for ways your leadership program can maintain school spirit and connection virtually?
Check out the link below for a running list of activities student leaders can use starting NOW.
Building a positive school culture happens whether the doors are open or closed.
I like to think that leadership programs everywhere are up to the challenge."

National Conference Update 3-17-20
As the COVID-19 impact and response is rapidly evolving, we are doing the best we can at NASSP and Student Leadership to make decisions thoughtfully and quickly. At this moment, the National Student Council Conference is still expected to take place on June 22–24, 2020. If the event is canceled due to public health or any other concerns, any registrations paid to NASSP will be fully refunded.
For those who must also commit and make travel arrangements, we can tell you that we expect to issue an updated status on the conference by April 11. That said, this situation is evolving quickly, so there is a possibility that we will make an updated announcement prior to April 11. We ask that you check this website for the latest information, and we will also push email updates directly to our NatStuCo network and registered attendees.
We apologize that this is the most information that we can provide at this time. Again, any registrations paid to NASSP for the National Student Council Conference will be refunded in the event of cancellation. Airline fees, ground transportation, hotels, and other arrangements and policies are not under our purview and we cannot speak for those policies. That said, given the national and international impact of COVID-19, it is our understanding that many travel companies have instituted temporary policies that are sensitive to this situation. We can only recommend that you work with those companies and agencies directly to do what is best for your school or delegation.
