Juli Hernandez Botello

Hi Tigers! 
My name is Juli Hernandez Botello and I am passionate about promoting diversity and inclusion within our community. Having personally faced an identity crisis and struggled with acceptance of my own culture, I am hoping to create a more accepting climate at THS. 
Some of my goals: 
  • Diversify the leadership class
    • Encouraging affinity members and hidden leaders to apply
    • Building steps to create a well-rounded team that is better equipped to make a meaningful impact at Tigard
  • Support the cultural case
    • Educate my fellow peers on the lovely cultures and groups THS upholds
  • Enhancing the Human Rights Committee, impacting the community in ways we haven't before
    • Creating a scholarship fund for low-income and underserved students
    • A communicative system where students can input their ideas and issues they want leadership to address
    • Hearing students' adversity within the school
  • Creating a mental health support group; 
    • For students who may be struggling with mental health issues and create a space where they feel supported and connected to others who may be going through similar experiences.
I appreciate you for taking the time to look over my campaign, hope to catch your vote!

As ASB President, I am committed to getting more value out of the ASB Sticker. The ASB Sticker is a great way for students to support school events and activities, but I want to ensure that students feel they are getting their money's worth. I plan to restructure how the funds are used so that more students get to see the benefits of those funds. 
Secondly, I believe that it's essential to promote a more inclusive and diverse school environment. Affinity groups play a vital role in this, providing a safe and supportive space for students of different backgrounds to come together and celebrate their identities. I will work to increase funding for these groups, providing them with the resources they need to organize events and activities that promote diversity and inclusion. 
Finally, I believe that it's crucial to diversify the Leadership class. Too often, leadership positions are filled by a narrow group of students, excluding others who may have valuable skills and perspectives to contribute. As ASB President, I plan to create more opportunities for underrepresented students to participate and lead in school-wide initiatives. This could involve, partnering with affinity groups, or organizing leadership workshops. By doing so, I hope to foster a more inclusive and representative class that reflects the diversity of our student body.
In summary, my goals as ASB President are aimed at creating a more vibrant and inclusive school community. By getting more value out of the ASB Sticker, increasing funding to affinity groups, and diversifying the Leadership class, I believe we can create a school culture that is welcoming to all students and celebrates everyone.
