Student Ambassadors Program

SGHS PSTA Parent Ambassadors Program

A great way for students to be involved at South Gwinnett High School.

Why should you get involved with the Student Ambassador Program?

As an Ambassador, you will increasingly become knowledgeable about SGHS and be equipped with resources that will assist you and others – and more importantly– be the first to hear about opportunities.

Research has shown that involvement with clubs, organizations and groups is one of the best predictors for post-secondary educational aspirations and career placement opportunities.

What is the responsibility of a Student Ambassador?

 Through this program, students serve as official ambassadors for a department, academy, club. organization, councils, programs or events sponsored by the PTSA and SGHS.

Student Ambassadors will help with outreach to families and students, form relationships, help each other create and sustain ties to the school by encouraging participation in clubs, auxiliaries, special programs and events. This helps to ensure everyone becomes vested in the success of SGHS.

Student Ambassadors will help promote our mantra “The Great Things Are Happening at SGHS”

• Welcome newly recruited members to the program
• Assist with supporting events
• Serve as an informed agent of the school
• Engage with prospective and current parents/families, teachers, students and staff
• Assist in identifying, recruiting, or sustaining ambassador membership
• Assist in building and promoting positive messages and highlighting “The Great Things Are Happening at SGHS” both locally and regionally
