  • StuCo Election: Deadline to Complete Intent to Run

    September 22, 2021

    Hello all,

     AHS Student Council is proud to announce the beginning of this year's elections! 

    Animas High School’s Student Council serves as a platform for all students to bring about attainable and recognizable change within Animas High School in cooperation with faculty, students, the Board of Directors, and the community. In addition, StuCo organizes and leads activities and initiatives that build a positive connected school culture and provides an opportunity for the students to have a voice.

    After a year of online meetings, we are thrilled to invite you to participate in our student government. Any student is welcome to sign up for the election! There are 3 senior, 2 junior, 2 sophomore, and 4 freshmen spots currently available on the council. Applicants must fill out this Student Council Intent to Run form by next Wednesday, September 22 in order to be considered a part of the election. 

    Informational Session:

    During lunch on this Thursday, Sept. 16, StuCo is hosting an Info Session in Sven for hopeful candidates. Participation is highly recommended- candidates meet with the current StuCo and learn more about what it's like to be a member. Participants are also invited to sit in for any following StuCo meetings on Tuesdays and Thursdays at lunch. 

    Campaigning:

    Candidates are encouraged to campaign during the weeks before the election. This can include anything; hanging posters, distributing handouts, speaking to your classmates, and more! The goal is to let students know who you are, so don't hesitate to be creative! All candidates are required to represent themselves at the Candidate Meet and Greet over lunch on Tuesday, Sept. 28, outside in the upper parking lot where they will interact with the student body before elections. 

    Election:

    Polls will open during advisory on September 29th and close at noon the next day. The election results will be announced on October 1st, and newly appointed representatives will join meetings shortly afterward. 

    We are looking forward to welcoming a set of new members to Student Council, and we wish participants the best of luck in running! 

    Cheers!

    Your Student Council,

    Representatives: Za Barrett, Mae Loebig, Maddie Tharp

    Co-presidents: Kristina Bodewes and Sage Robbins
