Apeejay School, Noida Conducts Class Representative Elections

Apeejay School, Noida, successfully conducted the Student Council elections for classes VI to VIII for the position of Class Representatives. The event marked the profound immersion of students into the democratic spirit that will shape the leaders of tomorrow.

The process commenced with the filing of nominations by interested students. It was followed by shortlisting candidates based on qualitative feedback from class teachers and their enthusiasm. Once the candidates were finalised, who would shoulder the responsibility of representing their peers, the voting process was carried out inside individual classrooms. To foster an inclusive and equitable voting culture, each student was entitled to cast two votes—one for a boy candidate and one for a girl candidate.  The respective class teachers acted as presiding officers to ensure transparency and discipline throughout the process.

A rigorous vote count followed, after which the highest vote aggregators in their respective categories were declared the official Class Representatives.

The Class Representatives elections held at Apeejay School, Noida, were far more than just choosing class leaders.
