Midtown Votes Early!
On Oct 30, the Midtown Academy held its mock presidential election. Over the past month, students were able to learn about several aspects of the voting process, while preparing for the mock election. There was a voter registration drive that enabled students to register before voting day arrived, and on "election day" there was a booth set up in which each student who had registered had the opportunity to cast a secret ballot.
Activities related to the mock election spanned several different classes. For example, in art students made "vote" buttons and posters and some students wrote essays about the importance of voting, in additional to the work done to hold the actual vote. Thanks to all Midtown students, parents and teachers who helped make this event a success.
