Nilanjana Ghosh

Nilanjana Ghosh, the New Jersey State Board of Education student representative, will speak at Workshop 2023, addressing attendees on Tuesday, Oct. 24 at 10 a.m.

A rising junior at West Windsor-Plainsboro High School North, she aims to serve her peers and became a part of Student Government in 7th grade. Her passion only grew when she was introduced to the New Jersey Association of Student Councils in high school.

She currently serves as a subcommittee member of High School North Student Council, is a representative of Concert Choir, backstage director for South Asian American Student Association and previously served as freshman class president. She’s also involved in spring track, the theatre program, and numerous other clubs, including Key Club, GLI Club and JSA. Through these activities, she hopes to enrich her character and leadership.

Since 1976, the NJASC has elected the student representative to the New Jersey State Board of Education, who also serves as one of the State Board’s nine state officers. The term of office for the student representative, as defined by the State Board, is from July 1 to June 30 of the following year.

Each month, the student representative reports to the State Board on a topic of interest to students and also offers feedback to other State Board members on a variety of issues that affect students throughout the Garden State.

About Workshop 2023 Workshop includes four full days of networking opportunities and professional development, including leadership training, keynote speakers, student entertainment, demonstrations from industry partners and more.
