High school student council reports revived talent show, senior events and HOSA national qualifiers
Summary
Student council leaders from Thirsten High School reported a successful talent show, plans for a senior barbecue on June 1 and Project Graduation logistics, and said two HOSA competitors advanced to nationals; students requested help with permissions and supervision for senior events.
Senior student council president Nicholas Hopson and public relations officer Vincent Cis updated the board on recent student-led activities and upcoming senior events at Thirsten High School.
Hopson said the talent show drew strong student and parent turnout and helped revitalize student engagement after years of lower participation. "The talent show was a wonderful hit," he said, and students emphasized that new ideas and careful execution made the event successful.
Students described plans for a senior "sunset" and a senior barbecue scheduled for June 1 (the day of graduation rehearsal) on the football field, asking for help with food, supervision and permissions; they noted Project Graduation as a likely partner for insurance/oversight. They also asked about allowing bounce houses and other items, and staff indicated building-level administrators would follow up with the students on logistics.
A student reported that HOSA (Health Occupations Students of America) qualifiers advanced to state and two students will attend nationals; exact counts and financial figures for student-group fundraising were not specified.
The board applauded the students and encouraged continued communication with school staff for event planning and oversight.
