Millions of Americans went out to vote on Election Day, November 5. We had the same opportunity right here at Passaic Prep, a little earlier on the calendar.

On Sept. 26, the students of Passaic Prep hit the voting site in the auditorium to vote for their next student council.

 This is a decision that affects all students at Prep. The votes were announced at the end of the day and students learned who their next student council president was going to be: sophomore Amy Zarebczan. 

“I have a lot in mind, but a lot of good things are coming up this year, fundraisers, student teacher activities, and more!” Amy told The Boulevard.

Amy has taken part in student government since she was a middle schooler at Lincoln. 

“Middle School shaped me!” she said. “Thanks to Mr. Figueroa who has taught me so much of what I know today, from public speaking to working with others. I would say he is one of the reasons I won this election.”

Mr. Figueroa, student council adviser, is in charge of ensuring that the council is run smoothly. He teaches AP US History 1 and AP Human Geography at Passaic Prep.
