A MONTH IN REVIEW
A MONTH IN REVIEW
M MEEEETT Y YO OU UR RO OFFFFIIC CEER RSS Hi! I’m Ben Bunyatipanon, I’m a senior this year, and I’m your Key Club President for the service year! I joined Key Club because I loved volunteering and key club has only made me love it more. I would never be as talkative and social as I am today without key club throughout high school. A goal I have for this school year is not to have the most
amount of members who are actively involved and engaged in what is going on in key club, retaining our first meeting members through the entire year. In my free time I work as the ASB President, HOSA blood drive coordinator, a member of Hazen cheer, and also coach a junior team with your editor, Lauren!
M MEEEETT Y YO OU UR R O OFFFFIIC CEER RS S Hi I’m Jordan and I serving as your VP. I’m sorta the typical nerd/geek. I love to be on my computer for hours but I also enjoy midnight adventures. This is my first year participating in a leadership position so please give me criticism about what I could improve on. That is one of my goals this year, to improve my leadership skills and better my involvement with my community. Of course, it wouldn’t be Key Club without service. Volunteering is important, because I would’ve never have been able to meet so many amazing people.
M MEEEETT Y YO OU UR RO OFFFFIIC CEER RSS Hi guys, I'm Angel and I'm your Secretary! I joined Key Club for the aspect of community engagement and service. However, overtime, I began to build an interest in providing service to others through the numerous volunteering events that enabled my participation in character development.
Through experiences, I was able to build long lasting relationships that helped my personal growth from being reserved, and self-conscious to a more confident, and determined individual who thrives for the best in the things that she does.
MEEEETT Y YO OU UR R O OFFFFIIC CEER RS S M Hi, I'm Jayla and i'm your key club treasurer this year! I also participate in cheer, journalism, and other school related things but whenever I'm not at school i'm most likely watching netflix, at work, or hanging with friends! I joined key club because of my love of service in the community and the aspiration to be active here at Hazen! My major goal during my term is to grow the diversity of our club and show the service really has no restraints. So if you see me in the halls or anywhere else don't be afraid to say hi and introduce yourself, can't wait!!
M MEEEETT Y YO OU UR RO OFFFFIIC CEER RSS Heyy, I am you editor Lauren! I joined key club because I love volunteering and impacting our community in a positive way. I love that key club gives you so many opportunities to be involved and create connections with others. One goal I have for this year would be ensuring that everyone feels welcome and involved within our club.
Key club can have such a big impact in your you life and I want everyone to have the chance to experience it like I did. In my free time, I enjoy doing lots of arts and crafts. I'm OBSESSED with cookies and cream ice cream and milk tea! I am also captain of the drill team and spend lots of my time on social media lol.
