“I am so excited to get to work with this group of girls who have been elected to serve as members of Student Council next year,” said Allison Caldarera, MSM student services coordinator and next year’s Student Council sponsor. “With it being Mount St. Mary Academy’s 175th birthday, I can’t wait to see all of the new and exciting ideas they have to make it a very special school year for everyone!”
Next year’s student body president echoed Mrs. Caldarera’s excitement. “I can’t wait for the coming school year,” Josie Wrape exclaimed. “The newly elected Student Council is filled with wonderful leaders, and I am so glad to have the opportunity to use their talent and ideas, as well as input from the student body, to continue to make Mount such an amazing place. Our goal as a Student Council will be to make sure every voice is heard and to ensure a culture of excellence, support, service and kindness for all of our students, teachers and staff.”
As the elected representatives of the student body, Student Council members traditionally help coordinate and promote school events while also overseeing the execution of class projects to assist in furthering the mission of Mount St. Mary. The group coordinates the school’s large-scale canned food drive, Robin Hood Days, each fall. Its huge success year after year is a testament to Student Council’s leadership, hard work and enthusiasm.
Officers for the freshman class will be elected later this fall.
