The Jonathan Law Key Club recently added two new freshman officers to their club.

The election was on October 26 during the club’s weekly meeting. Alivia Bogert and Ava Grippo both ran for freshman officers and won the election. 

“I wanted to be a Key Club officer because I wanted a way to help connect to the Law community as a freshman,” Bogert said. “I thought that this would be a way I can do it without having to worry about making fun of myself.” 

Grippo and Bogert wanted to help and make themselves noticeable in the school. They will have many different roles and responsibilities in Key Club.  

“Some of my responsibilities are, if a meeting is canceled, to let all the freshmen know,” Grippo said. “Recruit more members, make sure the kids in my grade are present at meetings and attend volunteering opportunities.” 

Borgert’s goals and responsibilities are the same as Grippo’s. 

“My goals as an officer is to try and inspire more people to join Key Club and to help out whenever I can,” Borgert said. “Some roles and responsibilities are to make sure everyone knows if there was a time change, and to help out when we can.”  

To become an officer, Grippo and Bogert had to prepare and deliver a speech to the club.  

“I wanted to be an officer so I can get more involved in Key Club and take responsibility,” Grippo said. “My goals are to help out in any way that I can, and that being a freshman officer can help me earn other roles in the club in the future.” 

There are many exciting duties as an officer but also many responsibilities. Grippo and Bogert are new but are now very important members of Key Club. 

“I am excited to be more involved and be helpful,” Grippo said. “There are many exciting things to do mixed in with all of the work.” 

Bogert has been very excited about running for officer ever since she heard about it. She expressed that in her speech. 

“I am excited to have this opportunity as an officer to help make more of an impact in our school,” Bogert said. “I am looking forward to new experiences and connecting with new people.”
