The third and fourth grade Student Council election was held on Friday at Burr Elementary School. Twelve students (out of 18) in our class ran for positions on the BES student council! All of the students did an outstanding job with their campaigns and speeches.
The campaigning began on Monday as many creative campaign signs began to fill our classroom and our hallway. On Thursday, the students 'met' each other in an informal "Meet and Greet" activity in the classroom, to share and discuss some of their ideas. Friday the students gave their speeches. I am so proud of each and every one of them. Their speeches were strong, thoughtful, heartfelt and filled with many great ideas for our school. The students also did a wonderful job delivering them! (I really want to emphasize again, how PROUD I am of all of these students for going through this process.)
The class voted after all of the speeches were delivered, and the winners were announced at the end of the day on Friday.
Congratulations to all of our candidates for a very hard fought and tight race!!
