Olivia runs for Secretary!!!!

Olivia is in fourth grade this year. She got
the opportunity to run for an office in the
Student Body Presidency. She decided to run
for Secretary. First she had to collect 20 names on
a petition in order to qualify to run.
Then she got to make posters.


After that she had to write a speech to present
in front of the other fourth and fifth graders.
Here she is!




She was very nervous to give her speech, but she
did a great job. The students then went back to class to vote.
Olivia voted for herself. :)


After voting the students went out for recess.
During recess, they announced the winners over the
PA System. "And for secretary the winner is...
OLIVIA MARTINEZ!!!!!"

She was so excited she started screaming.
When I came to pick her up she acted totally normal.
Then she shouted "I WON!"
What a great day!
