The annual student body election kicked off with speeches from the runners for Secretary, Treasurer, Vice President, and President. All the candidates gave amazing speeches and presented themselves very well. The first rally was quite rowdy with not the most respectful crowd. Many unkind gestures and words were said while candidates gave their speeches, but the audience at the second rally was much more respectful.
Miranda Grimberg gave a powerful speech at both rallies, using an aggressive approach to sell the audience. Galu Rhodes walked out strong and confident, delivering her speech with a sense of fun and making it feel interactive. Many of the candidates in their speeches spoke about more student involvement when making decisions that will go to the students, along with many speaking about the cleanliness of the school and the need for more janitors. One candidate running for ASB President, Elena Baldwin, took a different approach than the rest of her candidates by not just focusing on the need for janitors but speaking about her plans for more achievable goals. She did an excellent job, but so did every candidate that ran.
When all votes were in the roles were announced. The new senior positions are Galu Rhodes as secretary, Keana Maxwell as treasurer, Miranda Grimberg as ASB Vice President, and Bennet Witherell as ASB President. Congratulations to all the candidates for going up and presenting themselves, you all did amazing, so be proud!
