RE: Student Representative Report

Hot Topics:

• Advisory change
  • Last year the school decided to change advisory from after 6th period (which was in effect for just one year) to now after 2nd period. This isn’t a popular change with the student for numerous reasons. To briefly summarize the main points of the students’ argument we are concerned with how this impacts our education, how dramatically the Cascadia Tech Students and Running Start students are affected, how athletes are affected and how the school is now more disconnected as ever. ASB is working alongside Mr. Shoup and Mr. Uhlenkott to try to come to some sort of understanding or agreement
    • UPDATE: I am working with Mr. Shoup to send out a survey to all of the students asking how they have liked the advisory change to get a better understanding of how the whole school feels.
  • After school dances/activities
    • To increase school spirit and to increase attendance at games. ASB is working alongside Mr. Uhlenkott to try to make this possible while keeping in mind board and school rules.
      • UPDATE: We have contacted the Beaver Boosters and hope to have an after game dance ran completely by parents and boosters at the next home game. We’re hoping if this goes well then we can do some during basketball season to raise the attendance during that season.
    • Student Section at Games
      • Due to the increased attendance and participation at games we are suggesting as an ASB that the student section be:
        • 1) enlarged by including the section to the left
        • 2)marked better so people who come from other schools know where to sit (Visiting Student Section, Visiting Parents, Home Parents, Dub Squad Student Section, etc)
