This Friday, newly elected head monitors Kailee Silver (II) and Greg Livingston (II) take up the mantle as school leaders from outgoing head monitors Semi Oloko (I) and Tyler Piazza (I). Kailee lives in Hallowell House and will be a captain of the cross country and swim teams next year. She is also involved with the Milton Measure, the Magus Mabus music board and Helix. Greg, new to Milton this year, lives in Goodwin House. He participates in the community engagment program and is a varsity football and lacrosse athlete.
At the Class II Retreat at the beginning of April, the weekend’s activities energized class spirit, and Class II students rose to the challenge of running for office. Over the course of two weeks in April, eight students—self-nominated—each made his or her case to all students and to the faculty, that he or she should be one of the two head monitors for the 2017–2018 year.
In their creative and effective speeches, Kailee unfurled a scroll listing what she wanted to do as head monitor, and Greg used an ice cream sundae as a metaphor for Milton. Kailee and Greg are already planning for the 2017–2018 school year and are excited to get started.
