I am denied from the Student Council because of the new student council selection format which doesn't allow students to choose who to represent them, but I think I have what it takes to be a good VIS president and I am very determined and will be very committed to improving our school and making this school year enjoyable.


I think the council process should be more democratic, the council is the students'.

-Honesty in applications should not be punished

-No experience doesn't mean no Leadership, everyone has a first time

-A bad IB student doesn't mean he/she is incompetent and has 0 leadership skills

-The Student representative should be elected by the students, Everyone deserves an equal chance at running for the co-president

-A student understands his/her friends' quality more than a teacher.

I am honestly overwhelmed by the response to this idea. It turns out I am not the only one who feels that our school should be more democratic and open to everyone. This momentum belongs to all of you.

i believe that anyone in VIS has the right to run during the president election if they're committed to dedicate themselves for the school for a year!!
