Our ideas for making this possible are unique, and will help us bring the J-D community together.

Our plans for the school year include a variety of fundraisers like working with restaurants, sports tournaments, and competitions. Also, we would work together as a slate to reach our goals of bringing the J-D community together, making sure everyone is heard, and bringing more awareness to students’ mental health and well-being.

People should vote for our slate because we will listen to the students of J-D. We care about each student, and their opinion and voice will be heard with us as your 2025 officers.

If we win, our main goals will include bringing the J-D community and student body closer and forging a better connection between the staff and students at J-D. With this said, we will reach out to the student body for their opinions and ideas. All of these goals will be achieved through numerous activities mentioned before like fundraisers, dances, and other various ideas we have for students to have fun while still raising money.
