The National Association of Student Councils (NASC) is a national organization in the United States serving middle and high school student councils. NASC offers programs, scholarships, and leadership opportunities for student council members, educators serving as student council advisers, and school administrators.[1]
History
[edit]NASC originated from the efforts of Warren Shull, president of Sapulpa High School Student Council in Sapulpa, Oklahoma. In 1930, Shull organized a meeting in Oklahoma with student body presidents, which laid the groundwork for the Oklahoma Association of Student Councils and NASC.[2] In 1931, Shull met with Dr. Willis A. Sutton, President of the National Education Association (NEA), leading to the formation of the National Association of Student Government Officers (NASGO), with Shull serving as its first president.[3]
NASGO faced initial financial challenges, with Shull often attending NEA conferences by hitchhiking. In 1937, NASGO adopted an official constitution and changed its name to the National Association of Student Councils in 1940. In 1943, the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP) became the official parent organization of NASC.[4]
U.S. President Ronald Reagan gave the keynote address at NASC's 1983 annual conference in Shawnee Mission, Kansas where he spoke about his start in politics serving as the student body president of Dixon High School in Dixon, IL.[5]
In 2017, the organization rebranded itself as NatStuCo (National Student Council) to be more in line with the National Honor Society, its sister organization.[6] The NASC name and brand were restored in 2024.[7]
