Student Council Candidates Give Speeches

On September 27, 2012, all of the candidates for Student Council offices at Hunt Middle School gave their speeches. The students running for Treasurer were Chris Gipson and Jackson Elder. Both of them gave wonderful speeches. Chris, a seventh grader, had wanted to be Treasurer last year, but felt that he didn't have enough experience as a 6th grader. Jackson, a 6th grader, thought thatmedia type="youtube" key="LG2eq_9A8lo" height="186" width="247" align="left" he would be a good Treasurer even though he was younger than the other candidates. The candidates for Secretary were Javante Sovey, Madeleine Tremblay, and Paris LaPlant (all 8th graders). Javante wanted to be Secretary to give back to the school; Madeleine wanted to do good things for Hunt; and Paris said that she would be a good role model. Contenders for the office of Vice President were 8th graders Khadija Bangoura and Brent McKeowen. Khadija said that she would do a better job organizing the meetings than last year’s officers; and Brent said that he would definitely be sure to consider everyone’s ideas. Running for President we had 8th graders Anders Ode and Kutjim Hashani. One of Anders’ ideas was to keep the school clean by setting up more trash cans. Kuitjim wanted to make his last year at Hunt the best. Everyone did a wonderful job telling Hunt why they would be a good choice for Student Council, but in the end Jackson Elder became Treasurer, Javante Sovey became Secretary, Khadija Bangoura became Vice President, and Anders Ode became the Student Council President.
