So STUCO meets each Monday right after school. They discuss . . . things. Like upcoming activities, fundraiser ideas, sporting events, etc.
Miles is the STUCO co-president - his partner is a girl named Camryn. They didn't have to get voted in really. A while ago the students voted in the president. Then it changed to STUCO members voting. But this year no one really wanted it, I guess - but Miles and Camryn decided they would do it as co-presidents. Funny.
Both boys seem to enjoy it. They get to sell concessions at our home sporting events. The boys totally like that - they get to make nachos, sell stuff, get $1 of free food for each hour they help, etc. :)
This past Friday the school had its activity/dance night. The boys stayed after school to help get set up and then came home at 8pm. They loved it. Miles was "helping" out with the cake-walk and "being crazy," as he told me. Jonas got to be the DJ. He was super excited about it - but then also told me that kids would come and "cuss" at him because he wasn't playing their songs. Ha. But they were both excited to tell us all about it.
Here is one picture the school posted in its facebook page:
The theme of the night was "red carpet." Only because STUCO has more girls than boys in it and that is what they voted for - per report from my boys. :)
A side-note of STUCO. So Miles was going to a merit-badge rally a week or so ago and needed 2 more badges to get the next rank. As we were reviewing the required badges that he was recommended to work on, I thought there was no way he'd be able to pass it off on that one Saturday because there were service hours to do, meetings to attend, etc. Turns out that his service on STUCO and his STUCO meetings qualified and he was able to pass them off. So cool.

AH! Middle school! I still can't believe this is your reality.
Glad to see the boys are involved. Good practical experience. Congrats to Miles for continuing to work on his goal of Eagle Scout.
