Many of these seniors have been involved in SGA for all four years of high school.

“SGA has done so many things for me over the last 4 years. I’ve learned to prioritize, be responsible, and I’ve made lots of new friends. I will definitely miss Mr. Brown the most, he always keeps things interesting and makes sure we are doing our part,” said Arneson.

The SGA serves at many service events throughout the year such as Lancer Candy Lane, the Egg Nog Jog, and Relay for Life. These events promote community involvement and raise money and awareness for various causes and charities.

Arneson sums it up perfectly. “My favorite part of SGA is being able to make a difference. I love being able to help my peers and community, make decisions to benefit the school, and be a part of something bigger than myself.”
