Every April, Upper School elections take place in anticipation of the following school year. After multiple weeks, student candidates created promotional flyers and then presented speeches to their peers at a series of Upper School assemblies. Through their speeches, they described their vision for improving the MICDS student experience. Bravo to every single student who put themselves out there and ran for office, and a big CONGRATULATIONS to those who were elected!
