The MCHS Student Council had the opportunity to attend the 75th SCASC State Convention, which was held over the weekend. Students were able to hone in their leadership skills by attending workshops, participating in leadership games and team building activities, and by collaborating with student council members from across the state of South Carolina. Students had the opportunity to hear from guest speakers about the importance of leadership, organization, and making the right decisions. Students collaborated with other school student councils during the “Swap Shop” where schools came together to share ideas for student activities, student engagement, and so much more. While students worked hard this weekend, they also had a lot of fun! Students dressed in their best formal wear to attend a banquet dinner and an award ceremony on Saturday night, which was followed by an AMAZING dance party! On the final day of the convention, students held caucuses to discuss the candidates for state president, state parliamentarian, and the district chairs. Students were able to experience what an election is like, and they gained a better understanding of our country’s voting system. Overall, the weekend was filled with building friendships, leadership skills, and (most importantly) having fun!
