As the 2015-16 school year begins, we come across many new and familiar faces. Students are growing into their next grade, and teachers are improving their classes each and every day. At the beginning of the year, there is much to keep you busy other than just schoolwork. There are many clubs and extracurricular activities that you can sign up for! Student-Government, Feminist Club, JOCO Teen Drivers, Coding Club, Quiz Bowl, Prom Committee, Student Ambassadors, “Lions Roar,” and Latin Dance Club have started having their meetings of the year. With the exception of Student Government (freshman permitted), if you are a sophomore or higher, you can join any club that you wish. During the second semester of the year, Freshman may join any club they desire. If there is a club you have been looking to start, or would like to be in, you can easily start it. All you need to do in order to start a club is to have student interest, a teacher representative, and a plan of how you would like it to run.
It seems as if it has been drilled into our brains, but each of us, students, have been taught a specific quote, “The only constant is change.” After intense and “nail-biting” campaigns, filled with memes, food, and goodie-bags, the students of ECA have currently elected a handful of peers to govern their classes, that have many ideas to broaden and deal with the everyday needs, and changes that our school needs. The ECA SGA Class Representatives are:
9th Grade: President- Hannah Ginn
VP- Meilyn Norman
10th Grade: President- Allana Almeida
VP- Alan Bautista
Secretary- Laura Vasquez
11th Grade: President- Makayla Brewington
VP- Kara Walden
Secretary- Maddie Riggs
12th Grade: President- Charlie Putnam
VP- Simone Gillespie
Secretary- Monica Tedder and Lynsie Williams
13th Grade: President- Cesar Bautista
VP- Kenan Walden
Secretary- Carly McLendon
Congratulations to all officers! ECA knows that this will be an amazing year with the help of each of you!
