School is out for summer!! Yahoo!! Southside had student council elections for next year. I had a talk with the kids earlier and just told them to think about running. Two of the three went for it. Jacob was a little shy about doing it knowing that there were two that would definitely get it. Josh and Jenna both ran. Josh had 4 in his class including him and Jenna had 3. They had to come up with poster boards and then give a speech in front of the entire upper campus. I wish I could have heard them, but I decided to just do my job and not go in there and make them more nervous. Josh wasn't sure that he would get it as there is one popular girl who gets EVERYTHING in the class (and we don't even need voting as she will be homecoming queen) and then one who is also semi-popular. He ended up getting vice president!! Sure enough he didn't beat the girl who gets everything, but I am still proud. Jenna ended up getting president for her freshman class!! That blew me away!! I didn't get a picture of Jenna's posters.....there were two. She made cupcakes on her board that said "bake my day and vote for me" and then put strawberry candy at the bottom that said "it would be berry nice if you did". Candy gets ripped off the boards very quickly so I had to restock several times. Josh's poster board said "don't BLOW it, "Chews" me" with bubble gum on it. Any case I couldn't be happier for them both and I hope that Jacob will decide to run in a future year.
