Summary
Student leaders from Raytown South and Raytown High reported heightened school spirit, a successful blood drive (42 units donated), and that Raytown High will host the Trails West StuCo district next year, starting a larger student engagement calendar.
Student leaders updated the board on school activities and volunteering at the Nov. 10 meeting.
Genevieve Diallo, president of the Raytown South Student Council, told the board the assembly increased school spirit and encouraged continued community support; “school spirit’s kind of at an all time high right now,” she said. Casey Hayes, a Raytown South representative, described upcoming competitions and a varsity speech-and-debate tournament the school will host in December.
Savannah Young, president of Raytown High School’s student council, said the school won the Trails West StuCo District bid and will host about 1,000 students next year. Bridal Santelan, student council secretary at Raytown High, reported the student council’s recent blood drive collected 42 units, which the students estimated could help roughly 126 lives.
Board members commended students’ event planning and encouraged increased board attendance at student events. The board asked students to share materials and video from district competitions at a future meeting.
The student reports were accepted as part of the superintendent’s report segment; no board action was required.
