Students Aim to be Nest’s New Leaders
Edison High's Student Council Elections, 2022
You’ve seen the posters: Edison High School’s Student Council elections start on Tuesday and campaigning has begun. The Eagle’s Eye reached out to the candidates and offered them the opportunity to explain their qualifications. Here’s what the respondents had to say:

Christian Lee (Secretary)
Hi! I'm Christian Lee and I am running to be your secretary for next year. There are many reasons for why I want to be a member of the student council, but I am truly passionate about three main reasons. My first motivation is fellowship among the community of the school. Edison High School is such a diverse place where every person contributes differently to our school. I feel if I were a leader among...

Hena Patel (Secretary)
It isn't likely for candidates to run purely for the function of the role but more for the role's name. It takes a person with a rich passion for the subject to have the will to satisfy the position— better than an empty title. The role of the secretary is no less important than that of the president, vice-president, and treasurer. Many don't realize the importance of a competent candidate until ...

Kathleen Shipman (Secretary)
Hi! I’m Katie Shipman and I am a current junior and three-year general student council member running for the general STUCO secretary position.

Over these past few years, I have looked up to the board members and admired how they have led the school, and kept students i...

My experiences that high school motivated me to run for treasurer due to the community ...

Robyn Nemeth (Treasurer)
I want to become a Student Council Officer so that I can promote a memorable high school experience for the entire school community. As a three-year Class of 2023 officer, most of my efforts have been aimed at assisting the Class of 2023 in particular; however, events like the outdoor movie nights were not solely for our class--and that aspect inspired me to serve a larger community. I love to interact...

Inayah Gardner (Vice-President)
Hi, my name is Inayah. I would describe myself as a very friendly, outgoing person. I love to meet and learn from people with different kinds of interests and backgrounds. I currently maintain working two jobs outside of school.

Matthew Gaspar (Vice-President)
Hi! My name is Matthew Gaspar and I am running to be your vice president next year. I have a few goals that, if I was elected, I would like to fulfill for next year. Some of my goals would be to get more students involved in more activities this school has to offer, highlight the culture that EHS has, and listen to what you, as the future of this school, has to say. There is no doubt that Edison H...

Jeremy Hur (President)
The writers at The Eagle’s Eye have graciously offered me an opportunity to influence your vote through the power of language, an offer that I will gladly accept. A little introduction is necessary: I’m currently a junior at the STEM Academy, and I involve myself with various clubs, groups, and pastimes in and out of school.
