Raiders run for class office
By Bob Chan
As high school progresses, students partake in extracurricular activities in order to capture all the experiences that high school has to offer. Among these activities are sports, music, AP classes, clubs, and the student government. Student government is an excellent extracurricular activity, which teaches students to be model students and be responsible not only for themselves, but for the school. For high school seniors, participating in student government is highly commended by colleges.
Students can choose to serve in positions such as class president, class vice president, class secretary and class treasurer in their respected grade. The duties of a president involve organizing ideas for events and working with students as well as controlling affairs in organizations. In addition, the president must lead and facilitate meetings among the staff. The senior class president is also in charge of arranging the 10th year anniv-
ersary for alumni. The vice president takes over if the president dies, okay, maybe not in high school, but if called to, they assume the responsibilities of the president. The treasurer’s duties are to manage the money earned from events and to deposit money. Secretaries usually maintain the paperwork.
All in all, becoming part of student government leads to a positive attitude in school and a love for your school, the Southwest Raiders.
