Dear Fieldston,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019re already spotting brainrotted presidential posters across campus, inevitably signaling that with great sadness, we must relinquish our FSG power. It feels like not so long ago that we promised you\u2019d Never be Broke Again (…). The saying \u201ctime flies when you\u2019re having fun\u201d has proven true. These nearly 9 months have been such a privilege for us. When we ran for this position, the core of our mission was to give back to a community that has given us so much. And boy, have we been lucky. The joy of representing our friends, teachers and classmates has been incomparable. The support we\u2019ve received has left us with an incredible lasting memory of Fieldston.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year, we\u2019ve focused on emphasizing community at Fieldston. In addition to planning a pep rally in the fall, we organized a long-awaited spring pep rally to cinch Community Day on April 24. We\u2019re excited to highlight our spring sports teams and fly into our final weeks with some Eagle spirit. This month will also include our first Senior Sunrise (thanks, TikTok), an early-morning breakfast celebration for the senior class. Additionally, we\u2019ve opened communications with Manhattan College about certifying Fieldston classes for college credits, a long process that we hope future FSG co-presidents will continue to advance. We\u2019ve continued the senior parking lottery from last year, with the help of our hardworking campus safety team. And\u2026we\u2019re still working on a couple last initiatives for the fall, which we hope to announce soon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moreover, we\u2019ve connected with new members of the community. We presented to the Board of Trustees, met regularly with school administrators, and collaborated with the Communications Department. Most recently, we had the pleasure of hosting a group of students from Denmark. Credit is also due to our cabinet \u2013 especially for their resilience after an absolute robbery of a Family Feud assembly. Our student officials have achieved their own initiatives, many of which we\u2019d hoped to see implemented during our presidency. It also appears that more than a few of the juniors have enjoyed their taste of power\u2026so we\u2019re excited to see who comes out on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To our next FSG Co-Presidents, we recommend that you start planning initiatives much (much<\/em>) sooner than you think is necessary. Don\u2019t be discouraged if you encounter some roadblocks. Along with accomplishments, we also tried to advance many initiatives which, in all honesty, did not come to fruition. However, the process led us to further appreciate the many resources Fieldston already offers alongside the amazing staff and faculty who support our educational and social experiences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Thank you so much to everyone who has supported us, not only during our presidency, but throughout our years at Fieldston. We can\u2019t wait to see what\u2019s next!<\/p>\n\n\n\n With love,<\/p>\n\n\n\n Clara and Ellis<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Dear Fieldston, We\u2019re already spotting brainrotted presidential posters across campus, inevitably signaling that with great sadness, we must relinquish our FSG power.
