WRHS Student Council attended the annual Wyoming Association of Student Councils Convention in Gillette, where students had two days to network with other students and councils around the state, vote on the upcoming student executive board officers, participate in workshops to learn new ideas and skills, participate in some community service work, and grow their leadership abilities. Natalie Walker and Gracie Collver taught a swing dancing workshop (3 total classes, each class around 30 minutes long) to a couple dozen students. Also, Natasha Nimoto won the "Hidden Hero Award", an award given to students who are incredibly involved in their school, but may not be getting the recognition they deserve. Overall, it was an incredible opportunity for our student council members, as this was the first convention for eight of our students, and much fun was had!
