Ahmed, Manning named to Student Advisory Council

Emaan Ahmed of Whitewater High and Karamella Manning of Fayette County High have been named to State School Superintendent Richard Woods’s 2022-2023 Student Advisory Council. They are among just 67 Georgia high-school students selected for the prestigious council.

The State School Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council is a group of students in grades 10-12 who discuss how decisions made at the state level are affecting students throughout Georgia. Members meet throughout the school year with State Superintendent Woods and are advisors who act as liaisons between the Department of Education and the students of Georgia.

Students may apply for the advisory council at the beginning of each school year. Members are chosen by a committee of Georgia Department of Education representatives based on the applicant’s response to questions.
