In an epic battle for control of the most powerful progressive, secondary-students union, new leadership has emerged and old leaders have taken new position. Students United is ready to handle your issues in the new year.
TJ Lewis: Previously El Presidente, has moved on to the Board Representative position and will represent Students United in their new home at Sunflower Community Action's board. His experience and excellence will come in handy.
Charity Jones: A new member last year, Charity loves math and ran uncontested for the enviable Treasurer position. Her much needed financial leadership will guide SU in the search for funding and the budgetary process.
Elizabeth Newman: Another new member, Liz was instrumental in last year's victory at North High to get black history month programs available to students (unbelievable? Believe it). Now Liz is ready to lead in recruitment and retention as SU's new Membership Chair.
Roman Valenzuela: A member of 4 years, Roman has been active in NPA, Leadership School, the Tazer campaign, the Anti-Discrimination campaign and more. His clear credentials, expertise, and support for Direct Action mobilizations to achieve a place at the negotiation table allowed him to dislodge and free-up incumbent, TJ Lewis, for his new position. Wichita students, meet your new President.
Anonymous: The new Outreach Coordinator has chosen to remain anonymous so as to not compromise the position of valuable agents in the field. But don't worry, very soon her name will be made public.
