Do you know how decisions are made at PMS? Many decisions are made from the students of the Student Council. The Student Council is a group of students that were voted by their peers to represent them to the school so that the students voices can be heard. Before our student council winners were elected, the runners had to make a speech explaining why they thought they were the best fit for the Student Council. All students watched their videos and made the decision of who they wanted on their Sudent Council. The voting was on a Google Form that was sent to all of the students where they voted. I sat down with the Vice President, Joseph Vassalotti, and we talked about what his plans were as the Vice President. Here is a summary of what he said.

IT: What are some of your goals as Vice President?

JV: I wanted to run for Student Council because I wanted to make the school a better and more enjoyable time for the students.
