What activities <strong>have</strong> <strong>you</strong> been involved in at Marian that will assist <strong>you</strong> in being a strong<br />
and able leader in student government?<br />
When I first came <strong>to</strong> Marian, I just wanted <strong>to</strong> make sure that I was involved and had fun. So, I<br />
joined many clubs like Spirit Club, Baking Club, Polar Plunge, the Cross Country team, and I<br />
was also elected as our class representative <strong>for</strong> Latin Club. These clubs all taught me how <strong>to</strong><br />
work <strong>to</strong>gether as a team, how <strong>to</strong> give back <strong>to</strong> those in need and how <strong>to</strong> step up and be a leader <strong>for</strong><br />
<strong>you</strong>r classmates. I was a retreat leader <strong>for</strong> a courage retreat at Mary Our Queen which also<br />
helped me become a better leader because I was the teacher <strong>for</strong> those children and I had <strong>to</strong> be the<br />
best example I could be. By attending three leadership training workshops, I learned organization<br />
skills and many tips on how <strong>to</strong> be a leader. The most rewarding thing that I <strong>have</strong> done at Marian<br />
however, has been being a <strong>Class</strong> <strong>Officer</strong>. I learned so many things that <strong>have</strong> helped me become a<br />
better leader and example at home and in our community. By being in charge of a field day<br />
committee, I really got an understanding of how challenging yet rewarding it is <strong>to</strong> be in charge of<br />
something so important. It has been such a fun experience and I would love <strong>to</strong> do it all again.
