The SLO prefect is a student who is:
- A member of the SABIS® Student Life Organization (SLO)
- Appointed to any of various positions of responsibility
- Assigned duties within the SLO and contributes to the efficiency of the school
Being a prefect enriches students’ experiences, increases their chances of being accepted at their university of choice, and positions them to be successful later in life. The SLO provides prefects with an excellent avenue for them to contribute to campus life and be productive and involved students and future citizens. In order to become a prefect, a student volunteers to do certain jobs to become part of the SABIS® Student Life Organization.
By taking on this active role, students learn to take responsibility for their emotional, social, and moral growth as individuals as well as members of a larger community. The real-life experiences students are exposed to help foster their personal development as well as provide them with a platform to acquire and refine skills, attitudes, and attributes that give them a huge advantage at university and beyond.
Some of these essential life skills include:
- Leadership
- Problem-Solving
- Sociability
- Critical Thinking
- Organization
- Grit & Resilience
- Independence
- Empathy & Tolerance
- Communication Skills
- Collaboration
- Teamwork
- Accountability
