Spring Conference
AASG’s Spring Leadership Conference has been held in such diverse settings as Craig, Yakutat, Barrow, Bethel, and Anchorage.

Student Council of Excellence winners have included Klawock, East Anchorage, Juneau-Douglas, and Ketchikan. Chevak students and their advisor Deanna Shiroma were present to receive their award at the Spring 2008 Conference in Juneau. Other awards were given for outstanding student leadership, community service, outstanding advisor, and supportive administrator.

Executive Board
Executive Board
The AASG Executive Board is entirely made up of students from all over Alaska. Officers are either elected or selected by interview. Many positions are eagerly contested at the Fall Conference. Each Board implements programs. The 2007-08 Executive Board adopted the RSVP program and has had training in several schools as well as at the last two conferences. Each Exec Board identifies a theme for the year. Rural-Urban Communication has been successful in supporting rural students with travel scholarships and in developing the AKStudent Network. The current theme of “Youth Strength through Involvement” connects with the U.S. presidential elections and service.
Friendships
Friendships
AASG and NASC offer many opportunities to make friends and learn from each other. AASG has set up the AKStudentNetwork, has the Beamer Wall at conferences, and builds in lots of time to get to know students from all over Alaska. These two delegates had a great time sharing at NASC.
