A Letter from Student Leadership

It’s hard to believe that our time leading the school is coming to a fast end. Watching juniors begin to juggle prefect fishbowls, campaign events, and the infamous workload of junior spring calls us back to that time; It is during that reflection that we’ve realized we have accomplished our overarching goal for the year –good communication.

Through weekly meetings with Mr. Williams and frequent meetings with Mrs. Hansen (and Cece, for prefects), we’ve fostered the change we wished to see while simultaneously communicating the general feelings of students on campus to the administration. Attitudes at assembly are positive, with great energy coming from students and faculty alike. Recent prefect-led assemblies such as the Valentine’s Day assembly and the St. Patrick’s Day assembly have certainly fostered school spirit –and even a bit of competitiveness among students.

Another central focus for us this year was maintaining school spirit, just as our seniors last year did. Each week, through Servons speeches, sports games, and even the Elimination Game, it is clear that spirit remains. The 9th grade class seems to have truly adjusted to Cate life, and now, while '25 House and Long House have calmed down a little, they are still filled with laughter.

Returning to the theme of communication, through a few written proposals, seniors were able to regain sleepover privileges.

For the rest of the year, we hope to keep spirits high, if not get them even higher, and we look forward to ending the year dedicated to the Cate community and spirit.
