Are you a student trying to balance ALL of the following things?

-student council, honor society, or other student groups
-a sports, music, or drama involvement
-your community and service involvements
-family and personal commitments
-your friendships

It can be baffling!

Recently, I had to turn to a resource that I learned of MANY, MANY years ago at MASC/MAHS workshops as a student. It was neat to see that something like this stood the test of time, and made its way into my life as an adult. It's called the Importance/Urgency Grid. It's a simple task--but one that can put EVERYTHING that you need to balance in perspective!

MASC/MAHS continues to be committed to growing partnerships to pave the way for student activities to grow in Michigan. Take a look at this recent article from the Michigan Association of School Board's "Headlines" publication. If you wish to engage students on your school board or other committees--consultation is just a phone call away with MASC/MAHS. A special thanks to MASB for allowing us to re-print this valuable information! For more details, contact us at MASC/MAHS.

Both boards and students can benefit, learn from each other

Technology is expanding, it seems like each month there are new tools coming out that our schools, bosses, advisers, or teachers want us to use. At MASC/MAHS, we know that sometimes this can intimidate even the most savvy of users. As we see them, you will see brief articles on online resources that you can implement in your classroom, council or chapter.
