This years group of ASB aplicates went all out in their campaigns and speeches. It was a tough race, no one was singled out as a for sure winner.

The runners for office positions include; Maria Soto, Carmen Simon, and Natalie Betoshana for president, Nicole Nguyen, Brendan Lan, and Caryssa McKeon for vice president, Gianna Brocchini for administrative board member, Kate Villegas, and Even Johnson for administrative coordinator, And Katelyn Cardoza, Royse Kinsey, Laila Iroguyen, and Gianna Welsh running for rally commissioners.

Each speech on Thursday and Friday gave the student body an entertaining rally, and a new image of the candidates. Some of the candidates made t-shirts, and videos to promote themselves. Nicole Nguyen, Brendan Lan, and Carmen Simon all made promotional videos to get their names and faces out there.

“I made a campaign video including all of the sports teams practicing. This kind of demonstrated my involvement throughout the school and what I was willing to do to become more involved,” sophomore Nicole Nguyen stated.

All of the candidates wanted to make the leadership class better, and unite the student body more. The juniors wanted to help make their senior year the most memorable to them, by using their leadership to raise morale and spirit throughout campus.

I wanted to be ASB president because I wanted to make my senior year so memorable with the people I love the most, because it will be our last year together
