Have you been curious about next year’s ASB executives, whether you’re wondering who they are, what they’re planning to do, or what motivates them to work past struggles? This article will bring light to some ideas the upcoming ASB executives have for FWPA, like what you can expect from your ASB executives for the 2025-26’ school year, as well as a closer look at the people behind those roles.
Love Ndungu, who is this year’s vice president, will be stepping into the role of president next school year. Her job as president is to lead the ASB meetings, communicate about students’ needs, and organize school events. Along with her duties, Love hopes to continue trying to make the school year more fun for other students by boosting school spirit. “I want to make it more fun because everyone talks about bringing back school spirit,” she states.
To assist Love, the next vice president, Michael Gasanov, will take on the president’s role when they are absent, as well as supporting their plans and performing what they are assigned. With similar reasoning to Love, Michael hopes to change the school’s involvement, aspiring to create more opportunities for students to be involved with school activities. “I want to improve the school’s involvement, because I noticed that many kids aren’t interested in certain things,” Michael expresses.
By taking on the role of secretary and assisting the entirety of the ASB as a whole, Milana Polivoda’s job is to take notes on the meetings, like managing the school records, organize the dates of when school events will take place, and carry through the president’s plans. She aims to contribute to FWPA by getting more engaged with students and their ideas, allowing her to input those ideas into the ASB meetings. “I want to be more involved with the students, and I want to contribute their ideas to ASB,” she reveals.
On top of the ASB duties, Jacob Verbeurgt’s role as CFO—or Chief Financial Officer—is to handle the financial choices that FWPA makes, as well as keep track of FWPA’s spendings. He intends to bring enthusiasm into school events, as well as make decisions based on what students really want, bringing their input into consideration. “I want to make school wide events more fun and enticing to get more students into FWPA’s culture,” Jacob voices. “I also want to make decisions that people of FWPA actually want, through ways such as talking with the students.”
Whether their job is to lead, support, plan, or even manage finances, each ASB executive has a unique role to play to provide something important to FWPA’s community. As they continue to work hard in the next school year, we can be informed of what the executives are working towards, and how they will support FWPA in their own separate ways.
