Student Life and Sevice
The questions for the Kahoot and Jeopardy featured fun personal trivia collected from our peers, which added to the interactiveness. Students would laugh and cheer when a question featuring one of their friends appeared. Additionally, we added small challenges like throwing a paper towel into a trash can or planking for three minutes. To complete the whole experience, we added grade specific in-jokes, part of our initiative to tailor each event to the audience in question. In other news, we tried to implement measures to increase the enjoyment of assemblies. Given the year-long hiatus, we were eager to return. We stuck with some tried and true segments, like the fun facts and riddles, but also introduced new parts, like "from downtown" (inspired by throwing away paper towels into the trash after wiping your desk). Undoubtedly though, Sheen's energetic MCing was what added the most pizazz to the assemblies. It was definitely the defining aspect of our assemblies, and hopefully will be what sets the tone for future ones. Additionally, we have been hard at work on revitalizing the lounge. Our policy efforts were a bit lackluster at the beginning of the year (and inspired by some of the HSSG's efforts), we were invigorated, and ready to make a concerted attempt at change. The pandemic (and the policies that have gone along with it) have lessened the lounge's popularity. We aim to advocate for changes that help bring the lounge back to what it once was – a center of student relaxation and activity. We have made a survey, complete with sketches of potential renovations, and have calculated the costs of said renovations. As this portion of the magazine is being written, we are in the process of getting the form approved to be sent out. After the survey results are in, we will utilize them to write a proposal to the administration. Looking forward to the final day of school, we are undoubtedly anxious about organizing its events (which will consist of a mixture of sports and non-physical games). Although nothing is guaranteed at this point (as we are still in the event's planning phase), we anticipate putting a spin on the generic execution of the activities for the last day of school. Much like the Assemblies and house competitions, we remain committed to evolving, to trying out new and unique event ideas, and hope that future iterations of the MSSG will lead with the same mindset.

The school year is finally coming to an end, time sure does fly.
It was an honor for us, the High School Student Government, to be able to serve you in this amazing school year. We would like to thank all of you for being a part of our success, for seeing our plans turn into events and for making this academic year one of the best years ever. We hope that you have enjoyed your high school experience here. Without your input and support, Concordian would not have been the Concordian we know today. It is time for us to say goodbye to seniors, teachers, and students who are leaving this school. The time spent in Concordian is priceless and we will treasure every moment we spent together. Although there were many Covid-19 restrictions, we still held various events and class competitions, including Spirit Week, an online scavenger hunt, and talent show. All of these would not have been successful without your participation and enthusiasm.
As the President, Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer, and as seniors, we are proud to say that we have great underclassmen The school year is finally coming to an end, time sure does fly. who will fulfill the roles that we have left behind.
