ASB
What is ASB?
At Beaver Lake our associated student body (ASB) strives to make Beaver Lake a place where All Students Belong. ASB is an elective class that students must be elected or appointed into. Consisting of students in 6th through 8th grade, ASB allows students the unique experience to hold leadership roles at Beaver Lake and be a part of a student government. ASB officers are students with a drive to make Beaver Lake a better place and serve their community with the help of a teacher advisor who guides the class throughout the year.
Purpose of ASB
ASB’s purpose is to make sure that all students feel like they can be involved and feel like they belong. ASB plans assemblies, spirit days, and other fun activities. Our officers strive to help all our bulldogs get involved in everything that they plan. ASB does fundraisers, gift drives and so much more to help the community. Our officers are here to make sure everyone feels welcome and safe.

Builders Club
The best way to help young people develop into lifelong servant leaders is to give them personal experience in high-impact service. High impact service occurs when members are fully invested in the project, the experience positively affects both members and society, and the results last beyond the present. That's what The Builders Club is all about; members see how they can make a difference and become a leader through service in our school & community.
