Student Senate elections were held on May 18, 2010 to elect officials for the 2010-2011 school year. To run for office, students had to gain approval from their class sponsors and teachers via a rating system between 1-5 (bad to excellent) that judged their attendance, respect, academic achievements, etc. to make sure they were qualified.

“Being in Senate is fun but hectic for students” Student Senate Advisor Yvonne Alvarez-Cortes said. “Senators must have organizational skills, leadership qualities, and should be willing to make Senate a priority when it comes to extra-curriculars.”
