In this student-facilitated workshop, students, and the adults who support them, are invited to bring their own dilemmas of student government for discussion and advice. Working in critical friends-style groups, we will explore dilemmas brought by schools whose student governments are facing a challenge or whose schools do not yet have functioning student government structures. Our hope is that students will have the chance to connect with other students in an opportunity to further the reach of their voice within their schools. Participants are encouraged to come as a team of student government participants and the adults who support them. Participants are encouraged to think about a dilemma or school issue they are facing in advance of the workshop.

Hi! I am a senior at Parker and one of the leaders of the Justice Committee, a student-run body that seeks to resolve conflicts within our school community through mediated discussions with an emphasis on restorative justice. I attended Fall Forum last year and am excited to return this year as a presenter and I hope that I can learn something new from everyone.

Wellness Teacher, F.W. Parker Charter Essential School
I have been teaching and advising at Parker since 2003. I mainly teach Wellness classes (a combined health and physical activity class) for students in grades 7-10. I'd love to talk to you about positive risk-taking, health topics, restorative justice and issues of equity and race in our schools. I've lived in San Francisco, driven across the country twice and have a teenager, a preschooler and a baby due in late January!
