On Monday, May 24, 2026, the results of the 2026 Student Council (StuCo) Class Representative and Ambassador Elections were publicly announced, marking the end of a standard election season. This was the second election where the new STAR (Score-Then-Automatic-Runoff) voting system was used, and the first where the system was fully implemented as envisioned. As standard with non-Executive elections, there were no official Q&A’s, and campaigning was done personally. Voter turnout ranges from 87% in Grade 8 to only 36% in Grade 10. Overall, there was minimal disruption in the conduct of the elections, and it ran remarkably more smoothly than the Executive Elections beforehand.
