A big congratulations goes out to the newly elected Student Council for the 2018-2019 school year! The co-presidents will be Yousra Abdulrazig and Biruk Tewodros. Both Abdulrazig and Tewodros are looking forward to the upcoming year and are hopeful about how they can help the council to improve.
A new application process has been put into use for the past few years, making selection into the council more competitive. Abdulrazig says that the hardest year to be accepted is usually as an incoming freshman. There is also a separate application process to become a Student Council officer.
Throughout the year Student Council takes on big projects, such as decorating for Homecoming and Winter Formal, organizing Mr. WHS, and putting together the Hearts Campaign for Valentine’s day. In order to be most successful with all of the hard work that they will be putting into the year, co-presidents Abdulrazig and Tewodros want to put more focus on strengthening the Student Council through building relationships.
“I really want to focus on bonding and getting to know the council as people, because I think that will help foster the teamwork that we want to strive for,” said Tewodros.
Student Council not only benefits the school environment in many ways, but being a part of the club is also beneficial to the members themselves. Abdulrazig believes that being a part of the club is unique and valuable for students’ futures.
“Through Student Council I’ve grown a lot and I’ve become more of a leader and willing to share my opinion and create change, Student Council teaches you that,” said Tewodros.
