Central Student Organization
The dedicated officers working to represent and serve the UCB-SHS student body
The University of Cebu - Banilad Senior High School Central Student Organization (UCB-SHS CSO) is the highest governing student body representing all strands and tracks of the Senior High Department. We serve as the collective voice of students, advocating for their welfare and rights while fostering academic excellence and school spirit.
Our mission is to uphold and pursue the democratic aspirations of students by serving as a catalyst for positive change, promoting the core values of Integrity, Service, Excellence, Respect, Virtuousness, and Earnestness (I-SERVE).
The CSO operates through three main divisions: the Central Board of Executives, the Commission on Budgetary and Treasury, and the Partylist Representatives from each strand and grade level.
The Council of Advisers serves as the highest authority who are overseeing the CSO, providing guidance, mentorship, and strategic direction to ensure the organization fulfills its mission effectively.
