Woodhull Student Council Mobilizes for Projects

Woodhull Intermediate School student council members were working hard at their November meeting. Students worked collaboratively in small groups, with each group taking on different responsibilities to help bring upcoming initiatives to life.

One group focused on creating posters to display throughout the school for the Helping Hands Thanksgiving Food Drive, along with preparing morning announcements to encourage participation. Each class will have a student council representative responsible for counting donations and keeping track of weekly totals. “We are excited to see which class collects the most items,” said teacher Nicole Graziosi, who along with colleague Meghan Powers severs as the organization’s faculty advisor.

A second student council group began working on Woodhull’s November “gratitude” bulletin board during the recent meetings. Students collaborated to create a design that will give their peers an opportunity to reflect on and share what they are grateful for. “We love seeing our student council members take ownership of creating a positive and welcoming school environment,” Mrs. Powers said.

Finally, students worked together to create a bar graph highlighting the results of our first initiative in October, when students walked laps during recess to help raise awareness for breast cancer.

“We are so proud of the teamwork, creativity and leadership our student council members continue to demonstrate,” Mrs. Graziosi said. “We look forward to seeing their ideas come to life and all the wonderful things they will accomplish throughout the school year.”
