Castlebay Lane Charter Elementary Home

On October 6th, 8-5th grade students who wanted to be elected President and Vice President gave speeches as to why they should be elected and then the 4th and 5th graders voted in our new Student Council. Nora Kitabjian is our new President and Grace Varbedian is our new Vice President. The process begins as follows: Each class decides on a presidential and vice presidential candidate from students who want to run. The students must demonstrate Pillars of Character and follow "the Three B's" at all times, be responsible to meeting deadlines, be a team player, attend all meetings, show a genuine interest for the community and school, and offer ideas. All 4th and 5th grade students will then fill out a Voter Registration Application in order to vote. On election day, the 4th and 5th grade students check in to vote and then vote at the polling booths. They get a "we voted" sticker after they enter their choices. The 6 remaining students who did not get elected become part of the Cabinet. 8 more students will be elected into the House of Representatives by their classrooms.
