FEATURE OF THE WEEK
After an intensive, exciting, creative and respectful campaign, we are proud to present the YHT 2017/2018 Student Government (standing in front of many of the creative campaign posters of of the over 30 candidates). Every candidate prepared a well thought out position paper, designed an eye catching and meaningful campaign poster and delivered an impassioned campaign speech to their classmates. We are looking forward to the input and involvement of all the candidates as they rally around our newly elected student leadership: 8th grade co-presidents Tali Feldman and Nethaniel Nassir, 7th grade co-vice presidents Lila Ellman and Yaron Rahmani, 6th grade representatives Shaya Rosenfeld and Aviva Schilowitz and 5th grade representatives Michael Darvishzadeh and Ava Reschke.
