As the 2022-2023 school year reaches its late spring days, Tenafly High School students encounter the annual laundry list that comes with them— AP Exams, final exams, college recommendations, transcript finalizations, spring sports playoffs, and—most recently—student government elections. Each year, every grade, excluding the seniors, votes on student representatives for class office and student organization positions. The election results implement a fresh cabinet for the upcoming year, leading to a new hope for positive changes in the high school environment.
