Election Coverage
by Newspaper Staff
Some LMS students are eager to make a difference in their school community, and they are in the middle of their Young Republic campaigns for the 2026-2027 school year. These students all have a vision for how to make our school even better, and they are all competing for the opportunity to be your voice to the adults who make decisions in our school community. Check out the posters hanging around the hallways, find the candidates and ask them about their platforms, and tune in to watch the campaign videos next week!
All of the candidates showed great effort to their campaigns! Although only one nominee from each team and office could be selected, the candidates each offer their own excellent leadership and school spirit!
Congratulations to the Gold Team Nominees: Karis Mangreum (President) with Mya Sallie (Vice President), Piper Moran (Treasurer), and Savanah Schallhorn (Secretary)!
