NEW SAS

be available in the spring.
SAS STUDENT COUNCIL 2020-21: MEET THE OFFICERS
President, Ivy Zienego (11th) : My name is Ivetta ZIgnego, but everybody
calls me Ivy. I was elected student council president. I am happy to be president,
because I do have a lot of ideas that I would like to try out this school year. I look
forward to this school year to work with student council to make these ideas hap-
pen, and to see where it takes us. My goal for student council is not only to raise
money so that we can plan fun events and do fun activities, but also to get us more
involved in the school that will give each student council member good experiences.
On top of just being a regular student and a student council officer, I took up piano
lessons with Ms. Pankow because I have always wanted to play an instrument. I en-
joy being in choir and especially singing at the Christmas program with Ms. Z I look
forward to seeing what the rest of the year brings for student council!
Vice President, Grace Zignego (10th): I have been going to St. Augustine
School since I was in kindergarten. Since I am the youngest of elven children, I have
seen the example of my older siblings and the responsibilities they took on during
the school years, and I have learned a lot from them. As vice president, I hope to be
able to bring more activities and fundraisers to the school. I hope to make an ex-
citing school year for everyone to enjoy!
Secretary, Rebekah Nosacek (10th): I am a sophomore of SAS and I have gone
to this school since I was in 5th grade. Previously I was homeschooled. However, I
have had many great experiences coming to this school, and I really appreciate the
good education that is provided here. I hope to stay here and graduate in the 2023
class. I was appointed secretary of student council after wanting to get into this posi-
tion. I have always enjoyed writing and designing things so I felt that I could contrib-
ute to the needs of student council in a helpful way. Even though the first flyer I sent
out had a spelling error on it, I still have a hope for improvement!
Treasurer, Jennifer Zignego (10th): I am a sophomore at St. Augustine and
have been attending since kindergarten. I am the oldest of eleven kids, so that defi-
nitely has taught me how to take responsibility and stay organized, all of which I can
use to apply to the position of treasurer. Aside from that, I have quite the experience
with managing money, as I often have the task of counting the closing cash at my
job, and of course from personal experiences of buying shoes every other week and
making sure I don’t run out of money, before getting the chance to buy even more.
But on a more serious note, as a member of student council I hope to make school
more enjoyable with fun events and activities for all to participate in, while using the

SPECIAL NOTE OF RECOGNITION: Teachers often re-
mind students that our experiences in life are often
due mostly to what we make of them. A special thank
you to the members of the student council is in order
for the proactive steps and hard work they have tak-
en the previous and current year to raise money and
plan events for the students. They have been moti-
vated to make improvements and taken the steps
necessary. A special thank you is made to Ivy and
Gracie Zignego for stepping up to be the leadership
the council, Jennifer ZIgnego for keeping track of fi-
nances, and Rebekah Nosacek for her enthusiasm and
creativity in planning new events for the school. (Left to Right): Ivetta Zignego, Gracie Zignego,
