Lincoln High School Representative: Madison Street
Bio coming soon
Twelve Bridges High School Representative: Charlie Cho
I’m a Junior at Twelve Bridges High School whose passion for leadership led me to the role of ASB Representative.
As the Vice President of my school’s National Honors Society, participant in Christian Club, member of my church’s leadership group, and as a student of AVID, community service is extremely important to me. I love to enroll myself in important tasks to help others, whether it’s leading an event or spending my summer and spring breaks serving kids.
I am also a student athlete who plays a leading role on the Twelve Bridge’s Varsity Girls’ Golf team, and have earned the MVP award for the 2023-2024 golf season. Although I enjoy my sport and constantly focus on improvement, I prioritize academics as a hard-working student.
In my spare time, I’m discovering a new T.V. show, listening to music, golfing with my family, going to church, and hanging out with my amazing group of friends.
I was born and raised in this district and I understand our great history in the past and our potential for the future. With my love for leadership, I decided to demonstrate my school pride by becoming ASB Representative. I’m excited to collaborate with the rest of WPUSD to make a difference in and outside the classroom. My main goal for our district is community involvement, where everyone can come together to create growth, development, and positive memories. I’m honored to take on this position and uphold the moral standards that come along with it.
Phoenix High School Representative: Gavin Whelan
I’m Gavin Whelan, a senior at Phoenix High School and also the president of Key Club. I’m really into leadership and love getting involved with what’s happening on campus. I help organize and participate in our weekly huddles as well as organize events that bring students together. One of my main goals is to make sure everyone’s voice is heard and that students feel like they’re a part of the decisions that affect us. I also try to find ways to connect what’s going on at school with the community around us, so we can all make a difference together.
When I’m not busy with school stuff, I love to weld. It’s a hobby that lets me be creative and work with my hands. I’m excited to keep pushing for more student involvement and help make our school a place where everyone feels connected.
