02 Jun TEECS Student Council Receives NJASC Standards of Excellence Award
Somerset, NJ — June 1, 2026 — Thomas Edison EnergySmart Charter School is proud to announce that the TEECS Student Council has received the New Jersey Association of Student Councils (NJASC) Standards of Excellence Award at the annual NJASC Spring Awards Program, held on June 1, 2026, at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey.
The Standards of Excellence Award is one of the most prestigious honors presented by NJASC. Initiated by the New Jersey Association of Student Councils and the New Jersey State Board of Education, this award recognizes student councils that demonstrate outstanding organization, effective administration, meaningful student leadership, and strong school-wide engagement.
This recognition is especially meaningful because schools are eligible to receive the award only once every five years. The selection process includes a rigorous self-evaluation of the Student Council’s activities, administrative procedures, and overall effectiveness. Participating councils are also evaluated by a peer review team from another school, and final award recipients are selected after review by the NJASC State Officers.
TEECS Student Council’s selection reflects the dedication, leadership, and hard work of its Executive Student Council members, as well as the support of the school administration, advisors, staff, and student body. Through their commitment to service, leadership, and school spirit, TEECS Student Council has continued to make a positive impact on the school community.
“We are extremely proud of our Student Council for earning this special recognition,” said the school administration. “This award reflects the students’ dedication, responsibility, and commitment to making TEECS a stronger and more engaged school community.”
TEECS is honored to bring this award to the school community and looks forward to celebrating this important milestone with students, staff, families, and supporters.
