ASB Administrative Assistant

------------------------------------------------

Position Assessment:

May has blossomed to be a month of growth and reflection. Throughout this month I

have participated in Love Ripon, completing my elder project’s final stage, I conducted my mock

interview, helped plan the banquet, attended the Modesto conference, a board meeting, and

paperwork for the challenge. I enjoyed participating in the Love Ripon community service

project as my group was able to efficiently complete the task at hand, even after a little

confusion. The final part of my elder project which needed completion was uploading everything

to my website. Therefore, evidence of donation, publicity, emails, and results were all

documented on my website. Regarding the banquet, I created a slideshow as well as ordered

tablecloths for the banquet. I also had written a few teacher thank you write-ups, and a write up

for a staff award however my staff award was not presented. I also attended the modesto

conference where I learned that one man from a small town really knows how to use a

basketball. Attending board meetings this past month has also been something on my agenda,

and I do enjoy attending them. In this month of crazy and AP testing I have also been working on

The Challenge procedure from paperwork and making sure I’m up to date with all the

committees. In regards to my job position, I have been meeting with Davina weekly, and

attending all meetings.

Standing Committee

A standing committee I have contributed to this month has been Link Crew. I have been an

A.C.E this month and am always trying to influence a more inclusive environment for my peers.

Special Committee:

A special committee I have contributed to this month has been the Kyoto Exchange committee.

We have started working for this amazing event as I created an interest form and it was sent to

the Ripon district. Sofia, I, and our crew are extremely excited to organize the Kyoto Exchange

program this year.

Mentorship Evaluation

Another month with the beautiful Aiyana, and I am blessed as always. In the months of April and

May, I have read a new chapter of Aiyanas life. I have watched her grow, watched her remain

dedicated to her education, spending 10 hours simply studying for human geography. I’ve

watched her spend hours on her W.A.S, and always sending kind messages of love when needed.

She’s an angel, one of a kind. Not one you bump into every day. I love her so much, and she’s

growing so fast it pulls on my heart strings, at the rate she’s going she might take my heart with

her. I am thankful for every moment I get to spend with this sweetheart.

Concerns that I would like to be addressed:

One concern I would like to address is one in which I have been a part of, which is punctuality.

In the months of April and May, my punctuality, communication, and time management has

been arguably terrible. However, I have noticed my mistake(s). Therefore, I’m growing and

evolving and continuously trying to improve. :)

Positive Comment:

I’d like to give my positive comment to Jenna this month. I haven’t been the best ASB team

member this month, but she has been more patient than anyone with my behavior. Jenna is a true

leader. She has a great humor and smile that enchants one just looking at her beauty. Although at

times she may not notice it, she really is so charming. Her boss mode, her work ethic, everything

about Jenna is praiseworthy.

One change that I would like to see:

One change that I would like to see this year is inclusivity. Leadership tends to stay in cliques,

and there’s not much we can do about that. However, beyond the world of leadership, there are

other students. It’s hard to think that there are more faces than just those in the crammed

classroom we call home. So, as I’m trying to find a new friend group right now, and we all don’t

have to do the same thing, but simply interacting with more students, with each other, that’s a

simple change I would like to see.

My Impact:

My impact this month has been acceptance. I have accepted when I was in the wrong and the

areas I need to improve. I realize that I will never be always perfect, and that’s my impact, trying

to influence an atmosphere where perfection isn't the goal, but rather it’s growth. I have been

given the opportunity to be in charge of various clubs on campus. With that power, I would like

to influence a more comforting and inclusive environment.
