President

Ashley decided to run for Freshman Class President a few days before elections.  We were all  busy with our first ever campaign.  She had to write an essay and think up ideas for dances and activities for Homecoming week.  The weird thing was only the teachers saw these and they couldn't even vote.  All the students could do to campaign was have 2 big posters and unlimited 8x11 posters.  There could be no hand outs, no skits, or no speeches.  Cade was an awesome help making posters and emailing me final touches to Office Max for our very large poster all while he was on his Prom Date!  
Vote Ashley
Shirley She is the One!

The first day of elections they narrowed down the candidates to the top two.  Ashley and Nika Salazar were left.  We decided to make some t-shirts the day before the final elections.  Above was the logo and we put it on flourescent pink, yellow,  orange, and white shirts and she gave them to her friends to wear. The interesting thing was that Nika, her opponent, is also her friend so some of their friends were divided on who to vote for.  Some chose and some didn't vote on the final vote.  The final date to vote got delayed 3 times because of half day of school, track meet, etc.  When the results came back for the winner everyone was shocked that is was a dead on tie!  Never had this happened before.  The Principal had to call the High School and ask them what to do.  It was decided that they would both be co-presidents!  They were both excited to be working together.  I am so glad they are friends!





This was the picture we made Ginormous!


I just had to throw this award in here.  This is the Key Award for having straight A's for both 7th and 8th grade.  4 semesters in a row!  Way to go Ashley and she is in honors Math and English.  I do have to say my other kids didn't get piece of paper awards but all got straight A's with a few A-.  I know I'm bragging but hey I'm their Mom!
