Student Leadership

The ASB Cabinet, or student government, serves West Covina High School by voicing and addressing student opinions and needs, upholding the WCHS ASB Constitution, overseeing the expenditures of student funds, raising funds through the Student Store, supporting and recognizing campus clubs and organizations, and sponsoring many school-wide programs and events.  The primary goals of ASB are to create a memorable experience for all students on campus, to promote Bulldog unity and spirit, and to grow as student leaders. ASB actively works to ensure that student activities and campus life are alive and well.

There are 42 ASB Cabinet members: 

• 7 Executive Board Officers elected by the student body
• 8 Class Officers elected by their respective graduating classes (2 from each class become ASB Cabinet members, traditionally the President and Vice President. Class Secretary and Treasurer are not members of the ASB Cabinet).
• 27 appointed members selected by the Executive Board.

All ASB Cabinet members are enrolled in the Period 4 Leadership Class. The ASB Cabinet holds formal meetings at least once a week, usually during Period 4 on Thursdays in the ASB legislative chambers. Meeting minutes are available upon request. All proposals and other paperwork  must be submitted by Tuesday in order for it to be processed in the week’s meeting.
