This year’s Student Council election reminded us all that democracy is alive and well here at Saklan. Nineteen Middle School students submitted their candidacies for six Student Council offices, and the race was on! Voting took place on October 4th at the end of a vigorous and exciting campaign.
Earning a seat as a Student Council officer involves more than simply winning the popular vote. Each candidate had to submit a Letter of Intent, make a campaign poster, sit for an interview conducted by Jennifer Lettieri and Kim Parks, and share slogans and stickers with the Lower School students during lunch recess.
The culmination of their campaign was their speech at CLAS before balloting took place in grades 1 through 8. Candidates were awarded points for timeliness and quality when carrying out each of these tasks, and the candidates with the most points were the winners.
Lower School Student Council representatives were selected by their classmates and respective homeroom teachers in grades 1-5.
Congratulations to our 2024-2025 Student Council members!
