Responsibilities such as having NP3 spirit and respecting teachers, peers and the campus while acting as a role model to the school and student body is very important to all elected officers.
“I encourage students to run because I think it is the best way to get to know people at this school. I’ve definitely met and talked to so many students that I would otherwise not have. It’s also great for leadership, skill building, and getting to know NP3 a lot better in general. It is a lot of work, but it’s really worth it,” said Isabel Penman, a current communication NP3 officer who works with the other officers.
Candidate packets are now available in Jennifer Hembree’s Room (C-3).
More information about each position and the requirements to run will be included in the packets which will be due Monday, April 15.
