Student council brings new perspective
Meet the new student council members of 2019-2020
October 4, 2019
From building school spirit to organizing charity events, all the dances, and even bringing back some old traditions, such as flicks on the field, student council holds an important role. This year, one of the goals
of student council is to get the student body more involved by coming up with new events like the kickoff assembly.
Furthermore, there is a new structure to student council this year. In the previous years, each class had their own individual representatives with their own president, vice president, treasurer, and secretary. But this year, there are four main officers on the executive board and two or three representatives from each class, which makes up a total of eleven members on the executive board. Now, let’s meet the four main offi- cers for the 2019-2020 school year.

if it’s their last year,” Fleming mentioned.
