Student Council Elections

My school's having them in a few minutes. It's a really big deal, like everyone puts up hundreds of flyers to vote for them. We listen to speeches, then we decide.
Anyone else having these?

Re: Student Council Elections

We just had some elections for "Student Council Co-Presidents"...all the pairs had identical platforms, I kept meaning to bring that up during the debate but they only took questions from the people who were waving their hands obnoxiously  tongue

Re: Student Council Elections

I won mine!

I've been a great representative, fighting for the people, and I've actually tried to take down the puppet government of the Middle School!

We get to call her [The President] Ms. President.  tongue

Well, my term has been very successful, although crime in the 6th grade has risen.  sad

Good luck!

To vote for the president, V.P., etc. for next year. What would be the point of voting at the beginning of the year? No one would no who's who.

You don't really have to be that jealous.

Usually they start by making a big deal about it, and there's lots of campaigning and stuff, but after that, it's no big deal, and they end up making fairly few changes to the school.

Re: Student Council Elections

I'm in student council. But since everyone is so irrisponsible in the sixth grade, we didnt have to vote, i just got in. The requirements for mine were:

As and Bs
Two reccomendations
things you would change about the school paragraph

These had to be in order, then the people voted, but again, not enough people actually passed their forms in, so i just was put in(my requirement were in order too)

it would have been more fun if we voted though  sad

Re: Student Council Elections

Blade, I sincerely hope you voted the woman in the arts department representative spot. The guy was not the brightest lamp at Ikea, if you catch my drift. Plus he was arrogant.

Try every PERSON. That's the downside of being at art school. Everyone is insane. And not the good insane.

And by art I mean every art, not just drawing art. Vocal, dramatics, strings et cetera

Its funny how the kid's favorite maths teacher forces out a cheap laugh, while everyone else turns around in their seat to see if any one else is laughing. xD

Unfortunately no to that either. It was more like screaming and whooping and clapping. Absolutely crazy.
Lucky my altitude was high in the west balcony seats and the sound got quiet before it reached me up there

Re: Student Council Elections

Well I'm in fifth grade lol. Third, fourth, and fifth grade classes each get to vote on two 'representatives' for their class. Every year since third grade I won the elections. I put representatives in quotes because really Student Council doesn't have a say in much at my school. But I think it's awesome because this year almost everyone who was in student council for fourth grade was in my class, and I didn't even think I'd win. But yay  big_smile  I did. Our school doesn't make a big deal out of it though, but I'm just in Elementary school, so it's probably different.
