76 years of leadership excellence and our MS StuCo added to the legacy. This weekend we earned: • 1st Place – Judges’ Choice Project Connection • 2nd Place – Delegates’ Choice Project Connection • Gold – Student Council of the Year They represented our school with integrity, energy, and heart. They didn’t just “groove” into leadership, they defined it. Incredible work by an incredible group of student leaders. The future is bright. Leadership isn’t about titles it’s about impact. And this group made a lasting one. Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it. #GrooveIntoLeadership #SpiritOf76 #LeadershipInAction
