SGA and class council officers elected: Class of 2019 Ben Rose wins SGA president

by Bridget Murphy and Alyse Montgomery, Reporters

Last Friday, April 1st, students participated in a school election to choose who would represent them in their class councils and Student Council. The candidates had the entire week to campaign, and voter turn-out was high. Students ran President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Historian for their class, as well as the positions of President, First Vice President, Second Vice President, and Parliamentarian for Student Council.  

With the students’ impressive campaign posters and campaigning strategies, the student body had a tough choice to make.

With all the ballots in, the winners of the election were announced at the end of the day. Results posted on the SGA website are below.

Freshman, Ben Rose, locked in the position for SGA President next year.  Rose said,”I think it is really cool to be President. I plan on creating more fundraisers and trying to draw more attention to our events and get a bigger crowd.”

Class of 2018 members Jack DuBro and Tommy Moyer won their positions of Class of 2018 President and Treasurer respectively.  As president, DuBro intends to “make club sports on the weekend to help raise money for prom.”

DuBro feels that his campaign posters were a crucial part of his success. Jack also thinks social media and the candy he handed out to peers helped him win the race.

Tommy Moyer feels his “hard-working, overachieving” attitude and his  value of leadership positions will do him well during his time as treasurer for the Class of 2018.
