The National Association of Student Councils (NASC), a program sponsored by the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP) annually recognizes student councils that consistently provide quality leadership programs, activities and services to their schools and communities. This year, the NASC has named 190 of its member councils as 2012 National Councils of Excellence and National Gold Councils of Excellence.
Student councils are recognized for meeting NASC standards through the award criteria and councils reaching the highest levels are recognized as National Gold Councils of Excellence. This year, Virginia has two schools recognized for having National Councils of Excellence and four that achieved recognition as National Gold Councils of Excellence.
