October was a busy month for our student council members. We added a few more representatives in the freshmen class with regular elections and walk-on applications. This totals our council to 63 members.
We also hosted a Student Government workshop for all Student Government representatives. We helped the reps with leadership skills and outlined the responsibilities for each position. The ice breakers and activities were designed to help them embrace challenges and prepare them for every situation they could possibly face throughout the year.
One of our biggest events was the Spirit Dance and Spirit Week. In the beginning of the month, the council organized a Spirit Week which led up to the homecoming football game with the Spirit Dance after the game. Tuesday was storm coming and students wore storm gear as if they were preparing for a storm. Wednesday was The Great Outdoors where students wore anything that had to do with nature such as animal costumes and camouflage. Thursday was Vacation Day and students wore leis and tacky tourist outfits. Friday was white out to go along with the theme of the football game and the Spirit Dance. We had a lot of people at both the game and the dance and both were a huge hit!
The council volunteered at New Life in Walpole on Columbus Day to help organize furniture, assemble bed frames, and put sheet sets together. New Life is an organization that accepts donations of furniture and household items, warehouses them and then makes them available at no charge to those in need. We had a lot of fun working together and helping our community at the same time.
The Executive Board members went to Holy Cross for a MASC Officer Shop on 11/20 to learn how to be better leaders within our council and gain new ideas on how to make our existing and future events better. We met many new types of people and the activities we participated in allowed us to branch out of our comfort zone to be more confident in ourselves.
Upcoming events: Powderpuff (11/18), Can Drive (11/14-11/18), CDMASC Fall Conference (11/9), Pep Rally (11/23), Spirit Week, (11/21-11/23)

SEPTEMBER!!!
September was extremely busy for the MHS Student Council. The new E-board has been working hard to make sure the upcoming year will be the best one yet. With a new council, we are excited to have many new ideas bring to the table.
We hosted the Class of 2020's Student Council elections and Student Government elections, as well as the Walk-On applications for the Classes of 2017, 2018, and 2019 for Student Council.
We also had the Freshman Welcome Dance which was a big hit. Student Council reps and Senior Ambassadors helped make the freshman feel more comfortable. It seemed like a lot of the students had a great time and it got them excited for the upcoming year.
October is a big month for the MHS Student Council. We are volunteering at the New Life Foundation which is a charitable organization that accepts tax-deductible donations of furniture and household items, warehouses them and makes them available at no charge to those in need. We also have spirit week and the spirit dance next week (10/4-10/7). The days go as follows:
Tuesday: Storm coming (prepare for a weather storm - rain gear, snow gear, etc.)
Wednesday: The Great Outdoors (camouflage, hiking gear, animal costumes, etc.)
Thursday: Vacation Day (tropical and/or tacky tourist attire)
Friday: White Out (this is the same theme for the football game and spirit dance as well)
Here is the link to the spirit week video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIQ6zBA5leY
After the home football game that night (10/7) there will be a spirit dance starting from the end of the game until 10:30. This is an all school dance!!! Tickets are required for entry for both the game and dance. Tickets are $10 each and include admission to both the football game and dance (*if you plan on going to the dance, you MUST go to the football game as well). Tickets will go on sale TUESDAY (10/4) AFTER SCHOOL in the CAFETERIA. Tickets must be paid for with CHECKS ONLY made out to Medfield High School. Only 400 tickets will be sold. First come, first serve, so if you plan on attending, remember your check on Tuesday!
Lastly, the Student Council E-Board is in the process of organizing a workshop for the Student Government Representatives. We believe it will be a very helpful workshop and hope all Student Government representatives can attend!
Can't wait for a fun-filled October and rest of the 2016-2017 school year!

CDMASC 2016
Huge Success at...
CDMASC 2016!
On Friday April 29, 2016, Medfield High School Student Council hosted the Central District of Massachusetts for the annual Spring Conference. Students from across the state learned about leadership during student led workshops and met new people throughout the afternoon. The biggest event took place in the lobby where students campaigned for the new Central District Executive Board. We had one student, Chloe Rogan run for Public Relations. Medfield council members rocked the ¨Get in the know, Vote for Chlo¨ shirts to show their support. All of the hard work that the council put into this conference paid off. The event ran smoothly and all five hundred visitors left smiling and psyched about student council!
This is a trivia game to inform Chloe's voters about her great PR skills!
Huge thank you to Ms. Safer for signing us up to host the spring conference!! We couldn't have pulled it off without her help! We hope you enjoyed the pink (fav. color) and orange (Camp group color) flowers!!
Chloe explaining her goals as PR for CDMASC Executive Board...
