(Bonus for the most announcements in a single year, anyone?!) But we don\u2019t do this for college applications or to impress anyone. We do it because this is where we belong. We love leading, problem-solving, and helping &#8212; and all we want is the chance to do even more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just remember: if we win this election, we will make change happen like never before, delivering one of the most productive student governments Fieldston has ever seen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Implementing your ideas is the heart of our campaign, but here\u2019s some of what you\u2019ll see from us if elected:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A<\/strong><strong>c<\/strong><strong>a<\/strong><strong>d<\/strong><strong>e<\/strong><strong>m<\/strong><strong>i<\/strong><strong>c<\/strong><strong> <\/strong><strong>I<\/strong><strong>n<\/strong><strong>i<\/strong><strong>t<\/strong><strong>i<\/strong><strong>a<\/strong><strong>t<\/strong><strong>i<\/strong><strong>v<\/strong><strong>e<\/strong><strong>s<\/strong><strong>:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Simplifying Library Room Booking\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Booking rooms during A and B bands can be a total headache.

A simple online system could make reserving study rooms effortless!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>LinkedIn Boot Camp\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fieldston does a great job guiding us through the college process, but what about preparing for the real world? A once-a-month session on building r\u200b\u200b\u00e9sumes, practicing interviews, and finding internships could give students a head start in professional networking and real-world experience.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>S<\/strong><strong>o<\/strong><strong>c<\/strong><strong>i<\/strong><strong>a<\/strong><strong>l<\/strong><strong> <\/strong><strong>I<\/strong><strong>n<\/strong><strong>i<\/strong><strong>t<\/strong><strong>i<\/strong><strong>a<\/strong><strong>t<\/strong><strong>i<\/strong><strong>v<\/strong><strong>e<\/strong><strong>s<\/strong><strong>:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Festive Year-Round Decorations\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Let\u2019s keep the school spirit alive throughout the year!
