As Tenafly High School is almost in the home stretch of the school year, the annual Class Office and Student Organization elections were held on April 29. Candidates of each grade running for Class Office delivered speeches to their respective grade levels, the freshman class taking the new gym, the sophomores being in the main gym, the juniors in the cafeteria, and the seniors presenting in the auditorium. In addition, the candidates for Student Organization went around the designated areas to present their speeches to the entire student body and everyone was able to vote for the Student Organization leadership positions.
