Leadership Class of 2023/2024

On the first day of school, leadership helped run photo day.

I was helping in the gym, making sure students were evenly distributed in their lines, behaving, and making room for other students in the back of the gym.

I do not have any photos from this event.

Before school started, we gave newly arriving international students tours around the school.

I do not have any photos from this event.

At the beginning of this course, I remember being nervous because it was new to me. Even though I’m normally a more confident person, being around peers with more experience makes me nervous to take the initiative or speak up. I was hesitant to say my thoughts, in case they were “bad ideas,” so I was more quiet and reserved.

After being in leadership for a while, I’ve learned not to hesitate and to speak up on ideas, even with more experienced peers. When I have opinions on a topic, I express them when I can. This development has helped me learn that even if someone may be “experienced,” I should realize that my input is just as important as everyone else’s. Being worried about what people think should not stop me from sharing my ideas and participating.
