New Student Ambassadors

I would like to congratulate and welcome our new student ambassadors for the 2016-2017 school year. This is quite an honor and privilege to be selected for this position. These students will be the face of Vantage and will be out in the public arena quite a bit. First of all these students were recommended by either their lab instructor or academic teachers. Once they are selected, they then must go through an extensive interview with one of the three advisors. The advisors then get together and discuss each student and how the interview went along with other criteria like grades, citizenship, leadership ability, etc.

These ambassadors will represent Vantage throughout the school year in 2016-17. They will attend various parades in all the towns represented here at Vantage. They will also work the United Way Day of Caring and the Blood drive. There are a number of events around our school that they will be working at such as; Student Appreciation Day, Open House, Haiti Carnival and just about anything Mrs. Wilhem needs them for. It is a very active group but they do have a lot of fun. If you happen to see any of these members, please congratulate them on this great honor.
