Leadership positions in high school

Hey guys, I'm trying to get more involved in school activities and I was wondering what leadership positions have you held or seen others hold during high school? I'd really appreciate some examples to get an idea of where I can get started.

Hey! It's awesome that you're looking to take on leadership roles in high school. There are various opportunities where you can lead, depending on your interests and strengths. Here are some examples:

1. Student Government: as a class officer, club president, or student body president.

2. School clubs: president, vice-president, treasurer, or secretary positions in various clubs such as Model United Nations, debate club, or robotics club.

3. Sports teams: captain or co-captain of a varsity or JV sports team.

4. Academic teams or competitions: team leader for math club, science bowl, or academic decathlon.

5. Community service: organizing and leading volunteer events, starting your own philanthropic project, or leading a non-profit organization.

Remember, you don't necessarily need a formal title to exhibit leadership. You can also spearhead initiatives, organize events, or be a positive force in any group you join. Best of luck, and I hope you find a fulfilling leadership role!
