Meet Kevin Pellot…
H about myself.
ello, my name is Kevin Pellot, and I’m a 10th grade member of the KIPP High School Student Council. I wanted to share my aspirations for our school and some things
I was inspired to join the Student Council because it provided an opportunity to speak out about what I would like to see in the current state and future of the school. My goal is to help support the staff by representing student view points. I want to help shape the school into an amazing community, socially and academically. Even when we don’t see eye to eye, I love it, because what can change without differing opinions? We all have different visions for the school, but the overall vision is to make it an amazing place for students to learn and have fun. Our student council has been planning multiple things, like events for Black History Month. Also, in the beginning of the year the Student Council helped plan fall festivals as well as a homecoming event. We also did reflections on these events to see what we could improve in future events. My vision for the school is a well-balanced community that demonstrates school spirit. I feel it's very important to make school enjoyable. Our student council under our leadership matters to us because it is a place for students to share their thoughts. I genuinely believe that we all care about what happens in our school, and this is a community for all of us! We are currently reviewing our school policies and gathering student opinions on them just to see how we could make them a bit better for us. I do believe that we don't have a perfect set of school policies just yet, but we are definitely working on making them better! To be real with you, I want to be able to tell people in the future that I had an amazing high school experience—one where I found a home. Beauty lies in the hands of our voice and our goals for the future of our school. Kevin Pellot signing out!
