Student Leadership

The Berchmans’ Brothers Altar Boy Society helps Regis boys grow in their faith, in their sanctification and to build community around the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. Students participate in trainings and develop their spiritual life as they assist the priests throughout the year in Regis liturgies. All Middle School boys are welcome to join this program which is led by the Middle School religion faculty. 

The treasured “Big Brother, Little Brother” relationship fosters leadership skills among Regis’ Middle School students. The older boys take responsibility for younger boys at many school functions. Big Brothers lead by example, serving as mentors and modeling expectations of respect and high moral character. Strong bonds between Big and Little Brothers are formed as the relationships build over a four-year period. Students in Pre-K3 are introduced to their fifth grade Big Brothers and remain with them throughout the next four years. 

Fourth grade boys become the leaders of the Lower School, setting an example for all those younger than themselves. These Knights are courteous to all in the Regis community, and they commit to living as scholars and gentlemen for years to come. In the Fourth Grade Knighting Ceremony each fall, boys pledge their fealty to the kingdom of Regis and describe what they do in their personal lives to live out the Five Goals of the Sacred Heart as Regis Knights. 

Each day, Regis students gather in the Student Life Center for morning prayer and announcements. Throughout the year, eighth grade students take turns leading these daily gatherings. This privilege of facilitating fellowship is anticipated as the boys move into eighth grade and is a significant opportunity for them to grow as leaders of the school. 

Daily, eighth grade students assist faculty and staff with morning duties such as carpool and any other special activities that take place before the school day officially begins. 

Each day, a different group of Regis fifth grade students takes responsibility for raising and lowering the flag on campus and monitoring the flag throughout the day in case of inclement weather. This important daily ritual honors our country and teaches students about the importance of the values that the flag represents. 

Student Ambassadors serve the Regis community by filling leadership roles at various events. For example, students participating in the program provide tours to visiting families during open house functions. They also act as buddies for on-campus visitors who come to spend a day as a Regis student. In addition, these boys act as greeters and hosts for our special guests during many on-campus gatherings. To serve as an ambassador, a student must be in good academic standing and be recommended by a teacher to represent Regis. 

The Student Council consists of a group of Middle School students who serve the Regis community by organizing and supporting service projects, cultivating community spirit through fun activities and providing an avenue for students to voice their opinions in a responsible way. 

Class Representatives 

Class representatives serve as liaisons between the Student Council and their advisories. They voice the students' concerns and report the discussion in the council meetings to the students. Representatives plan and work to accomplish the Council’s goals.
