District Representative Candidate Statement Examples

As an involved member of the Business and Finance Academy as well as DECA, I feel I would be a suitable choice for an Executive Board member. I believe that with my success with DECA and my previous experience with leadership in Girl Scouts that being a part of the Executive Board would not only benefit the group but also myself. I am excited to get more involved and anxious to start more community service and fundraising programs within both the Academy and DECA. Throughout these past two years I have grown more comfortable with the students and faculty involved in these two organizations and have learned from them. I have many ideas about community service since I have many connections through Girl Scouts and also have ideas for

“The most rewarding part of being in student council is we get to help our school and do great things for our students,”Student Council member sophomore Madison Inman

One of my very first instances of leadership was during a Boy Scout meeting about five years ago where I led our

Participating in student council has impacted my life extremely. Running in seventh grade was the best spur impulse decision I have made. I wasn't certain I wanted to run because of previous losses in fifth and sixth grade and how heavyhearted those losses made me. I'm so glad I ended up running. I got interested in student council in fourth grade when I was my closest friends campaign manager when she had run, which kind of sounds frivolous in fourth grade. Even though I was pretty bashful and reserved as a little kid, once I got in middle school, I was ready to finally take a vast step into becoming myself, which for me was being in the student council.

Throughout my school years, I have always tried to be a positive role model for younger students as well as my peers. This year I decided that the best way to serve my school was to participate in our school’s Student Leadership Council. It has proven to be a fantastic decision for me. I succeeded in getting the most votes out of all of the candidates and have had a great experience taking a leadership role in my school. I feel like I have become a much better leader and role model because of Student Leadership Council. I have been really fortunate to be exposed to the Jeter’s Leaders program, since they come to our school to mentor us as SLC members. It has been an incredible experience, and I would really love to continue with it. As an eighth grader at Saint Augustine, we are required to mentor our younger students. I

Though I haven’t had the most involvement in extracurricular activities, I have been trying to turn that around. I joined FCCLA at the start of freshman year. FCCLA was an excellent experience to improve my leadership skills, as well as getting engaged with the school and community. This ranged from helping out with school activities, to collecting and organizing books to be donated to children, and crafting dog beds to donate to the Cedar Valley Humane Society. I ended up not resigning up for FCCLA the following year due to my dealing with a difficult death in my family. However, since then I have gotten stronger and want to expand my community involvement. For that reason, I joined Student Council after the end of my junior year. As a representative, I help in school activities and decision-making. Though I’m a newer member, I’m excited to be a part of the Student Council. I have also recently joined the Science National Honor Society. I was able to join this club because of my accomplishments in science. I doubled up biology and chemistry my sophomore year, challenged myself by taking AP Chemistry my junior year, and am currently enrolled in the Pharmacology Technician program at Kirkwood as a senior. I am eager to see guest speakers and have already signed up for a couple of community service activities in this

The final mast of school and community involvement was catalyzed when I joined Key Club as a freshman. Finding a passion for service and leadership, it rapidly became my primary focus in deepening my high school experience. Key Club inspired me to search for further opportunities for leadership and involvement, leading me to join Student Council, Relay for Life, and so forth. Through my various executive positions, I have not only improved my own character and qualities, but also inspired others around me to do the

Student Council and the National Honor Society both share a common purpose: helping others. I have been a representative for my grade in Student Council for three of my high school years and a National Honor Society member for two. In the National Honor Society, I have served as president throughout my senior year. Coincidentally, one of the four pillars of the National Honor Society is service, a component in a good citizen. As a National Honor Society president, I have helped coordinate a blood drive and assisted in others, provided support to the students who struggle socially or academically, and coordinated award presentations to a majority of the student body. The other side, Student Council, has also provided for me a way to help others and be a good citizen. Through Student Council, I have displayed citizenship through boosting school morale, volunteering for various school events and creating and approving new, innovative plans to make school life better. As an active, volunteering student, I hope that I made a positive impact, big or small, both inside and outside of the

With many distinguished and honorable roles under my belt I truly believe that I am the perfect candidate for the freshmen president. I was one of the co-captains for the Clover Hill High School Varsity Track and football teams. I was also president of the relay for life club. Other leadership roles that I have obtained in the past would include; freshmen mentor, senior class advisory consul, YMCA camp consular, Middle school track student coach, lead vocalist in RCS Acapella group, Algebra II student teacher, and lead roles in the school musicals. With all these leadership roles that I’ve obtained through out my high school year it has taught me to associate with not only other club, sport, or musical, but with the individual members. As

I am in my school’s Student Council, which I am currently acting as the President. It has a lot of work in it, as much as my school work, but I stay in it because I enjoy doing it. My goal as President this year is to run the Council as efficiently and effectively as possible and create robust communication from the Council to the administration to voice the student body’s wishes, and wish to continue in the future. Because of this, I would like to get involved with student representation on campus to develop my leadership and responsibility skills even more. Getting involved with the student population would further my understanding of unique individuals and how people define themselves, as UPenn is a melting pot of different cultures and diversity. This would help me develop the communicative skills needed in order to participate in team

I would like to nominate myself for the position of Vice President in our local chapter of Alpha Lambda Delta. I am an outgoing computer science student with a passion for bettering myself and those around me. Any task that I set out to do I do well, no matter if it is a small task or a major project. I would really enjoy the opportunity to get involved and better the UAH community through Alpha Lambda Delta. I have a well-balanced skill set that would prepare me for a multitude of situations. The qualifications I have for this position would be accepting leadership positions in high school sports teams. Through those experiences I have gained an understanding about what it takes to work with others towards a common goal. It demands cooperation,

I have been involved in student congress since I was in elementary school. I always liked being a leader and helping improve my school. Student congress at Lisle has been a key facet of the improvements and developments within our community. We frequent meetings with the administration of our school to discuss how we can make high school experience optimal for all. In addition, our funds expand beyond the need of dance decorations and a good DJ, we orchestrate many charitable fundraisers that help our community. My best memory of student council is when I was in eighth grade. We lead of fundraiser for the Normal Moments charity which gave gifts to less fortunate families that were affected by terminal disease. That year, we decided to beyond

I am a well-organized person. I tend to have a set schedule for everything and multiple to-do lists. I believe the chapter president needs to be organized in order to manage the other officers and the chapter as a whole. I also have great time management skills, without this skill it would be difficult to handle the large amount of meetings, events, and reports that our chapter has. I also have great communication skills, which are needed in order to maintain relations with the Office of Student Life, our advisors, National Headquarters, and the other members of Greek life. I also believe I am seen as a role model for our chapter members, I uphold our values and try to influence other members to do so as well. I also feel like I would be a great leader for our chapter, I believe I would be able to apply what I have learned as serving as an officer on junior executive council, and Ball State Dance Marathon to this position. Lastly, I would like to address that even though I have not served as a member of executive council I still believe I would be the right person for this position. Since I have been in the chapter for three years now I have been able to observe three different executive councils, I have also served on programming which has introduced me to how executive council is ran. I believe my position as Community Service Chairman, and as a Sub-Committee director for Ball State Dance Marathon has improved my leadership skills in order to qualify me as contender for

I found that the experience I gained as a volunteer and through the LEAD program, really allowed me to excel as a leader, and has helped open my eyes when it comes to the struggles others deal with every day. I have worked with so many diverse and wonderful people, and I have gained so much through my experiences with the city that would have otherwise been impossible to gain. The things I have learned as a leader will stick with me for the rest of my life, especially considering it is my dream to become a teacher and work with children. I have always wanted to be able to influence the life of a child in the same way that so many adults have affected me throughout my

I am hard working, ambitious and creative. Many who know me say that I am super organized, very social and good at noticing details. I love to work with others as I see it as an opportunity to learn and to gain a new friend. I have acquired many leadership experiences from Key Club, STEM, Swim managing, band leadership, etc. Each of these experiences has taught me something different. For example, being the Boy’s Swim Team manager I learned how to work with a group of 70 teenage boys. Also, with all the extracurricular activities that I do, I am superb at managing my time. What I can contribute to Youth Council is all the knowledge that I have gained over the years through all the activities I do and fresh, new ideas.
