As the academic year approaches to an end, Robinson’s Student Government Association, or SGA, has opened the application process for students wishing to join the organization. SGA offers various leadership, collaboration and representation roles for IB and traditional program students.
“Students should apply for SGA because it’s a really good way to get involved with the school and with both IB and traditional people. It’s also a good way to be more active at Robinson,” SGA President Tara Kuklen (’24) said.
To apply for a position within SGA, students must complete the application form available via the link provided in the Robinson High School SGA Instagram bio. Applications close April 8.
Eligibility for candidacy requires the completion of the application including endorsements from two teachers and maintaining a minimum GPA of at least 3.0. This ensures applicants have proven that they can demonstrate academic excellence and interpersonal skills essential for joining the club.
“We are looking for some who’s willing to [put] forth the effort and care for the community and wants to make a difference,” Kuklen (’24) said.
Various positions are available such as Student Government President, Vice President and Recording Secretary along with new and old roles on the applications. Students also have the option of running for class president for their class which entails leading meetings, organization of events, and representing their class in student government.
Whether you are applying for leadership or a role as a general member each position requires a time commitment and is expected to put forth a collaborative effort. If you are interested in applying, the application is set to close April 8, affording lots of time for interested candidates to prepare and submit their applications. Students with questions can ask Renee Kowalik in room B-204.
