Student Council is an organization made up of elected and appointed students who are hardworking leaders of this community. Linden Hall could not do what we do without Student Council. This year was unique, and I am so proud of the creative solutions that Student Council initiated. 
 
The highlights of this year were: 
International Night – the website was amazing 
The escape room – I still have the clouds in my classroom 
The positivity project – I feel more positive just thinking about all you accomplished 
The student spotlights – it was so fun to watch those interviews 
And being a consistent presence that both the students and faculty can rely on 
 
I would now like to read the names of all the underclass members and applaud their excellent work! 
11thgrade: Kelsey Clodfelter, Daisy Paredes, Akosua Aboagye, Abi-Grace Savizon 
10thgrade: Lily Rhoades, Mia Rossi, Maddy Moran 
9thgrade: Naomi Cox, Siran Rao 
 
Linden Hall and I thank you for all your hard work and service. You Rock… 
 
Here are the awards our Officers and Senior Members of Student Council. 
Senior Members: Angelica Chen, Michelle Chi, Adelle Durand, Te-ojah Dennison-Morgan 
Treasurer – Diana Than 
Secretary – Rehema Karuri 
Vice President – Milly Chu

And finally, I am pleased to announce next year’s Officers of Student Council. These are the only awards given today that come directly from the student body. It is the responsibility of Student Council to both lead and be the voice of the students. I know that these newly elected officers will more than rise to the challenge.

Honor Council Recognition
Leadership Awards: Text
Good day. I am happy to take a moment to recognize the service of the Linden Hall Honor council. Members of Honor Council are tasked with learning, practicing and teaching honorable actions to the other members of the school community. These leaders, elected by their peers in the spring of 2020, have tackled their challenge with empathy, selflessness and equity.  
Please join me in thanking the 2020-2021 Honor Council representatives:  
Ann Nguyen and Shirley Zhang 
Sydney McMillin  
Helen Lu  
And Kelsey McMillin. 
Each Honor Council member will receive a small certificate and pin for their service. 
At this time, I'd like to give particular recognition to the Honor Council's Senior members: Angelica Chen, Julie Park, Vienne Warfel, Lily Chow, Sara Truong, Iris Yoon, Ann Nguyen and Shirley Zhang.  
 
I have had the pleasure of collaborating with these young leaders and benefitted from their insights. For many years they have been the backbone of our council, wonderful partners to me and to their fellow Honor Council members. In gratitude for their work, each will receive a necklace commemorating their service. Councilors, I'd like to leave you with the words of renowned Professor Albus Dumbledore.  
"It is not our abilities that show what we truly are. It is our choices."  
I hope you will continue to let your good principles guide your choices.

Linden Hall student ambassadors represent our student body through their interactions with prospective students and their families, and the wider world. This school year, our ambassadors led 12 virtual tours, participated in nine virtual admission events, and connected with over 35 newly admitted students. We would specifically like to thank Maya Planeta ’25 and Ahsa Sadhukhan ’21 for going above and beyond and collectively contributing over 15 hours of their time to the student ambassador program.
