What’s your go to summer snack & a fun fact other people don’t know about you?

Lucy: Personally, I’m a big fan of lavender lemonade with boba. And then for food, pavlova because my friend made it for me this one time and it’s really good. Also, other people probably don’t know that I’ve memorized a solid 90% of Hamilton.
Jack: I gotta say a light margherita pizza with a cold iced glass of water. For a fun fact, I absolutely love space. I’ve watched the movie Interstellar about 50 times. I can quote most of the lines, and I’m just a big space person.
Alexa: I love watermelon and a pink lemonade. Fun fact about me, I don’t watch TV that much, but one show that I love is South Park.
Ingrid: Favorite summer drink, I’m immediately thinking, Dutch rebel or the mango dragon fruit Starbucks refresher. For food, some good watermelon out in the sun. Growing up, I was obsessed with dinosaurs and rocks, and I wanted to be a paleontologist. So the dinosaur exhibit at prom was the most exciting thing that’s happened to me, ever.

Why did you decide to run for an ASB position?

Lucy: Overall, I really have so much love for Jesuit, and my decision to run really stems from how I’ve seen how amazing the community and people at our school can be. And, I believe I can help further Jesuit’s mission and make the school a better place.
Jack: If you know me from assemblies, I love public speaking and I love using my voice. When I was a freshman at Jesuit on the first day of school, the ASB president gave a speech, and from then on out, being a part of ASB was always something that I was very interested in doing, so that was sort of my inspiration to run. Also, this year I got involved with student government and I wanted to be able to give back to my school in the best way possible.
Alexa: I’ve been doing student government since my sophomore year, and I started because I really appreciate the Jesuit community a lot. I liked being at school, helping students, and I wanted to be able to advocate for things where there could be improvement.
Ingrid: I decided to run for an ASB position just because of Jesuit’s friendly community. I remember when I moved here, I was met with a lot of friendly faces. I want to be able to give back to everyone and be super involved in making sure that I can represent my classmates as they should be represented.

What are some specific goals you have for the 2024 to 2025 school year?

Lucy: I do have a few main goals. The first goal is to help get sweats during finals. In our ASB cabinet we have actually been working on this and started a proposal already, so we’re super excited to work on that for the students. We do think it’s an achievable goal, and we’re going to work very hard to make that happen. Secondly, we’d like to have voting for sports themes next year. I think it’ll make a very inclusive environment and bring that extra edge to our sport events. We’re going to continue adapting and working on these proposals so the administration will consider adopting them at our school.
Jack: Lunch is a big thing, with diversifying the menu and fixing the seating arrangements. I think our lunch tables are a little outdated, as there’s a lot of issues with some tables being overpopulated and others being underpopulated. Also, this should be solidified by the start of next year, but another initiative is an online lunch card system which will make for a smoother payment process and a decrease in the lunch lines.
Alexa: After spending the last couple of years in student government, I want more representation of all clubs on campus and I want students to be able to vote on what’s going on during assemblies. In the past couple years, I’ve had a lot of people say all the emails are about sports. So I started the Sader Update to make sure all student activities are represented.
Ingrid: Upperclassmen will remember the old final schedule. If you didn’t have a final, you wouldn’t have to come in, and it wasn’t organized by period, so teachers didn’t have to make different versions of the test. That is one of my biggest goals along with bringing back sweats and digital lunch cards, which will be implemented very soon.
