Several Winner High School students attended the 30th annual state convention of the South Dakota Student Council Association which was held in Rapid City April 9-April 11.
Winner High School received the outstanding student council award.
Abby Marts was elected capital region reporter and Gracie Littau was elected school representative.
Also attending the convention were advisors Mona LaCompte and Lorna Phillips. The high school students honored Phillips at a pot luck on April 12. After eight years, Phillips is retiring as student council advisor. Taking her place is Lisa Jankauskas.
Focusing on the theme “Lead Us West” the convention utilized a combination of breakout sessions and large group instructional presentations by their guest speaker and workshop presenters, which were focused on different aspects of leadership.
The convention also featured a state-wide community service project. This project made over 60 fleece blankets that will be distributed among communities throughout the state.
Perhaps the most inspirational moment during the state convention occurred as part of the closing general session when the student councils presented their checks for money raised as part of the SDSCA spring Children’s Miracle Network project. Winner High School student council helped raise money for Children’s Miracle Network. The Winner High School student council raised $750.
