Leadership Update

by Ilan Ben-Meir [Senior Class President].

Lots of big news to pass along this week. In case you haven't heard yet, as of right now, Prom tickets are $125. This is for sure going to go down as we fundraise, but we also worked out a deal with the administration so that every magazine subscription you sell during this year's magazine drive lowers the price of YOUR ticket by $5. There's no limit to how low you can get it; sell enough magazines and Prom is free. Know also that Senior Steering, a club focused around Senior activities, fundraising, and decision-making, is meeting Wednesdays at lunch in Ms. Boyd's room (T11, I think). Next meeting we vote on designs for Senior Gear, so if you want a say in that, make sure to come by. Also, if you want to submit a design, give it to Ms. Boyd or Ms. Kariya by Wednesday. This club is a really chill way to make sure you have a direct impact on the way your senior year goes down...

We also have new Class and House Representatives,so make sure you know who they are, and let them know what they can do for you. You elected them, now make sure they they represent you. Every one of them, and everyone in an elected position at Samohi, is accountable to you. If you don't like how things are going down, that's our problem, not yours.

We're still trying to kick off the Service Corps. Most of the issues that delayed the launch have been solved, and now we're looking for cool projects to work on. If you have ideas, questions, or just want to say hi, hit me up. The Corps is a great way to get community service hours, and I think its gonna be pretty funky, too.

Anyway, that's about it for now. Next week is spirit week, so dress up if you love Samohi and free candy. Peace.
