Wayzata School Leaders On Representing Their School And Their Peers

Plymouth Patch: Why did you want to be senior class president/vice president?

John Bruer:  I’ve worked hard to be worthy of my classmate’s trust and confidence by listening to their concerns and representing them to the council to the best of my abilities. I enjoy being a buffer between the administration and student body.

Sammi Ezrilov: I wanted to be a leader in my grade because I love the school. I believe in the student council and what we do, and I enjoy being around others who feel the same.

Plymouth Patch: What do you want to do this year, what are your goals for the class of 2012?

Bruer: The senior members the Student Council plan and oversee all the activities of the 2011 WHS Homecoming, dances, fundraisers, etc. I hope to excite the student body with new activities outside of our usual routine.

Ezrilov: I want to be able to look back on my senior year and know that we knocked it out of the park. My goal is to be remembered as a grade that was full of good leaders and enthusiastic students who represented the school well.

Plymouth Patch: What are you looking forward to the most for your senior year of high school and why?

Bruer: I am looking forward to making the most of my last year with my friends, many of whom have been friends since grade school. I plan on participating in a variety of activities as well as keeping a focus on academics. 

Ezrilov: I've wanted to be a senior ever since I met my class in 2009. I look forward to losing my voice at football games, getting dressed up in the craziest clothes on spirit days and just soaking in this last year of high school.

Plymouth Patch: What are the biggest challenges that face you and your peers this year? Why?

Bruer: The biggest challenge we face as a senior class is the future. Seniors are pressured to decide on attending a specific college and a career path. It is difficult to make such important decisions knowing that they will have a major impact. 

Ezrilov: Just like any new senior class, one of the biggest challenges that my grade faces is assimilating to our new status in the school in a way thats respectful but also fun for us. The role of "senior" in a school, is extremely important because we are now the role models.

Plymouth Patch: What does the future hold for you? What do you think about doing after high school?

Bruer: Like a majority of my fellow senior classmates at Wayzata High School I plan to attend college. I am interested in science and technology and am considering a career path that combines both.

Ezrilov: After high school I absolutely intend on going to college. I'm really interested in psychology, history, and maybe biology.
