Apply by May 2



Current juniors are eligible to run for positions in the Monsignor Farrell High School Student Government.

Members of the student government are elected by the Monsignor Farrell student body (current juniors, sophomores, and freshmen). Elections will be held in May 2025.

Current juniors interested in running for election will run as individuals, not as "tickets" or with running mates.​

The majority winner of the election will be named student government president, and the second-place finisher will be vice president. Voting will be a ranked-choice instant run-off ballot to ensure that the president has the widest possible support among students.
 

How to Apply to Run for Student Government

Steps 1 & 2 must be completed not later than Friday, May 2nd

Juniors wishing to run must first apply for certification of their eligibility.
 
To be eligible to run, juniors must meet all of the following criteria:

 

  • Have no violations of academic integrity
  • Be in good academic standing and in good standing with the Dean of Students
  • Be willing to make service to the school a priority: this means attending meetings or events for the student government before other priorities
  • Write a statement as to why you wish to serve, what your vision of the job is, and provide several specific suggestions as to how you would work to make Farrell a better community. This statement is first for the administration to consider – this is not merely a campaign statement
  • Be prepared to meet with Mr. Musanti, Mr. Tobacco, and Mr. Fisher, who will interview you and consult with the faculty
