Candidate Profile
My name is Megan Butterfield and I’m in the sixth
grade. I come from a family of six. My hobbies are
reading, writing, and playing sports. I am running for and
would love to be secretary. Council leaders should be hard
workers and willing to come to meetings. They should
work for the good of all middle school students not just
themselves or their grade. Leaders should also be
cooperative and fair.

In order to be a secretary you need to be nice,

organized, and responsible. Secretaries should like to
write. As I mentioned before, I would love to be the
secretary and I like to write. I am self-motivated, kind,
organized, and very responsible. I’ve been in charge of
teaching my 5th grade Girl Scout troop how to ride, care for,
and learn about horses. I had to take many notes and talk in
front of not only my troop but also all other Girl Scout
troops many times. Several of my teachers have told me
that I have great leadership skills.

I hope to improve our school and gain more

leadership. I would love to share creative ideas and talent
with the middle school and its student council. We could
plan more activities to include everyone and bring the
middle school together. We could have a more
appropriately dressed and well-spoken middle school. The
student council could plan some fun activities, games, and
parties, including all middle school students. I would like to
contribute to the school by being the student council
secretary.
