Dear Upper School and 8th Grade,
We’re Mia Tuchman (she/her) and Eric Liu (he/him), and we’re running to be your 2025–2026 Fieldston Student Government Co-Presidents! We’re not here to make promises we can’t keep. What we CAN promise is this: we’ll bring energy, creativity, and follow-through to make Fieldston more connected, more exciting, and more representative of the student body. Voting Eric and Mia means voting for more. Whether it’s on the field, in the classroom, or just walking through the Commons, we want this school to feel like a place where EVERYONE belongs.
Here are just a few of our initiatives:
MORE SPIRIT AND MORE FUN
School spirit doesn’t have to mean just one pep rally a year. We’re planning…
- Themed Friday home games with prizes and merch giveaways to bring the hype, especially for underrepresented sports.
- Three pep rallies throughout the year: Homecoming, WinterFest, and Spring Fling.
- More student vs. Teacher games, talent shows, and more reasons to get excited for school events.
- Birthday shoutout wall, and an International Culture Week to celebrate our diverse community.
WE WANT TO HEAR YOUR VOICE
We want to amplify student voices and make it easier to connect, create, and be heard.
- A media platform, run by students, for news, interviews, and live updates.
- Stylish Year-round Fieldston merch
- International Culture Week to celebrate the diverse backgrounds and stories within our school.
MORE SUPPORT FOR YOU
Let’s make academics and career prep more accessible and less stressful.
- PowerSchool-style platform to check grades throughout the year, not just midterms and finals.
- Alumni & parent networking events to explore career paths in business, law, medicine, tech, and more.
- Resume workshops, internship resources, and a central site for summer opportunities.
- A new peer-to-peer tutoring program, Science Center, and support for existing help centers to be more widely used.
BETTER FOOD AND BIGGER SAY
Fieldston has amazing food, but let’s make it even better.
- Breakfast available through advisory.
- Monthly student-voted menus, so your voice impacts what’s served.
- Around-the-World Food Week in the cafeteria, featuring different global cuisines.
- Riv discounts for Fieldston students (we’re working on it).
REAL IMPROVEMENTS
- Charging stations for classrooms with phone holders.
- A digital Lost & Found System, so your favorite sweatshirt doesn’t disappear forever.
We’re not running just to talk: we’re running to do. And everything we’re proposing comes from conversations with students like you. This isn’t just our campaign. It’s yours, too. Let’s make Fieldston more fun, more supportive, and MORE YOU.
Vote Mia & Eric for FSG Co-Presidents
We can’t wait to get started.
With excitement and love,
Mia Tuchman & Eric Liu
