They are responsible for budgeting for events, overseeing fundraising, and maintaining financial records to preserve the progress and success of the school’s student council.
Now it’s time to get to know your Treasurer nominees
Keeli Craig:
Who am I?
My name is Keeli Craig and I will be a senior at Manogue next year. I’ve been on the varsity cheer team for four years. I was in student council my junior year. In my free time, I like hanging out with my friends, skiing, and go to the gym.
Why would I be good as
Manogue’s Student Council Treasurer?
I would be a good treasure because
I really enjoy math. I always help my friends with their math homework and I’m getting a job as a math tutor at Mathnasium. Also, my experience in student council last year allowed me to observe other positions in action, so I realized that treasurer would be the best fit for me.
Why do I want to be in a student body role? In this specific role?
I want to be in a student body role because I want to make a difference in our school. As A cheerleader, I really value school spirit. Because school spirit is so important to me, I want to be involved in school, and I think student council is the way to do that. I specifically want to be treasurer because I want to communicate with students and purchase items for events that they would most like to see. That way I can create events that students are excited about and feel they had say in.
What would I do differently? What would I focus on?
I would have more open communication with the students as treasurer. I would find out what they like and dislike at certain school event’s, and consider that when purchasing items. I would also be purchasing items ahead of time and stay organized so if we face any problems, I would have time to work and get them resolved.
What do I love about Manogue?
I love so many things about Manogue, specifically the community. Manogue is like a family, and I have created many lasting relationships during these past three years. I love all of our on campus events because it is clear students want to be involved. During my time as treasurer, I will ensure that what we’re spending our money on, aligns with student values. This way, students continue to participate in events, and our community continues to grow.
Angelo Aramini:
Who am I?
I am Angelo Aramini. I have been a Bishop Manogue Miner for three years and I am now in my junior year. I have been a member of Student Council since sophomore year and I am currently in my second semester of Leadership. I am a member of the Varsity Football team and the Varsity Baseball team. I take all honors and AP classes and have a 4.0 GPA (unweighted). I am well-rounded and knowledgeable of the highs and lows of student activities. I deeply want to serve our student body and as your Treasurer I can do that. I will watch over our school funds and effectively analyze our budget to help plan and create the best student activities to date, so we can continue to grow our community and spirit.
Why would I be good at this position?
My time in student council and Leadership have provided me with the necessary skills to lead, communicate, listen, and organize. Additionally, my math skills, organizational skills, and dedication to hard work allow for me to manage our school budget to work for us students so we can have better events and experiences.
Why do I want to be treasurer?
I want to serve our student body by elevating our experiences through school activities which creates school spirit and lifelong memories. I will accomplish this as Treasurer by analyzing our budget, protecting our funds, listening to student wants, and prioritizing spending. I will make sure we budget money properly for specific events and have the resources to create new events and traditions. I know that my experience as class rep, my two semesters in Leadership and my overall involvement at Manogue as a student and athlete who rarely misses a school event, makes me the best person for this position.
What would I do differently? What would I focus on?
I will focus on the wants and ideas of our student body and better incorporate them when planning events and allocating money towards them. My focus will be on balancing our student desires with our budget so we can provide more quality events that more students will attend.
What do I love about Manogue?
I love that Manogue has positively impacted so many lives, including mine, in so many ways. Manogue deepens faith, encourages service to others, elevates academics, and provides opportunities to students to be involved in so many areas. I would not be who I am today without Manogue. Go Miners!
Mia Parks:
Who am I?
My name is Mia Parks, and I’m a hardworking, kind, and positive student here at Manogue. I enjoy serving my school and local community, and I’ve had the honor of playing as a captain for both the soccer and basketball teams, as well as being a board member of Sodality!
Why would I be good at this position?
I would be a strong Treasurer because I am an experienced leader, responsible, organized, and confident in my math skills. I pay close attention to details and always follow through on my commitments. I have ideas to help our school continue putting on great events, and I will make sure all materials and supplies are ordered on time and within budget so everything runs smoothly.
Why do I want to be treasurer?
I want to be in ASB because I have a lot of ideas to make next school year even more fun and engaging for everyone. As Treasurer, I would make sure purchase orders are completed accurately and on time so our school can successfully host exciting events and activities. I want to help turn great ideas into well-organized, well-budgeted realities.
What would I do differently? What would I focus on?
One thing I would do differently is prioritize completing purchase orders well in advance. Too often, orders are placed too close to an event, which can cause unnecessary stress and last-minute decisions. With my team, I will track deadlines and ensure everything is submitted on time. I would focus on staying on budget, planning ahead, and making sure every event is set up for success without added pressure.
What do I love about Manogue?
One thing I love about BMCHS is the strong faith-based sense of community. It truly feels like a family where people care about and look out for one another. I also appreciate how faith is integrated into everyday life through prayer, service, and religious education!
