In March of last year, students from HHS got the opportunity to choose who they wanted to represent for their Associated Student Body Class. Story Johnson, a sophomore at Hughson High School, got voted in as the Sophomore Class Treasurer.
When discussing what inspired Johnson to be a part of Hughson’s student leadership, she stated, “Mrs. Ruelas really inspired me because she made me want to be a better person.”
When regarding pros and cons to being the Sophomore Class Treasurer, Johnson stated, “There are pros you get to deal a lot with inspiring the community but there are also cons you gotta deal a lot with money so it’s just kind of time consuming.”
When talking about activities and projects that Johnson is currently working on to represent her class, she commented, “we go through homecoming, we go through hoopscoming and the sophomore class that’s what we all represent.”
When discussing thing that are going to happen this year, Johnson stated, “ There is buff ball, hoopscoming, obviously prom is a big one, and then there is an activity at the football field, husky night out which is a bunch of vendors which all the clubs that they put together.”
