At our Student Council meeting on October 1, 2025, we were honored to welcome State Representative Lauren Matsumoto as our guest speaker. She shared her inspiring story of perseverance—how resilience and learning from failure helped lead her to success in many areas of her life. Her message encouraged all of us to embrace challenges as opportunities for growth while working toward our goals. The students especially enjoyed seeing Representative Matsumoto’s impressive jump-roping skills, which added a fun and memorable touch to her visit!
