"Si Se Puede!" - Benji's Bid for Student Government

Benji's bid for 6th Grade Representative in Student Council has come to fruition!   Not bad for the new kid at school.  After his announcement that he would run as an independent, the student body began to chant, "Si se puede!"  (It can be done!!)  

His speech was confident, funny and sensible.  He ended with "Don't vote for me because I'm very handsome and extremely tall. Vote for me because I'm approachable, hard-working, and a good choice for 6th grade representative."  Who wouldn't?

His landslide win has made him a household name in the middle school!  (Okay, perhaps we're just proud parents...)
