SMOB Elections
Each school year, MCPS holds an election for students to vote for the Student Member of the Board (SMOB). Current Sophomore and Junior students apply to be a candidate. The field is narrowed down to 2 candidates at the Nominating Convention. These 2 candidates are selected from a delegation sent by each high and middle school. At the nominating convention, all of the candidates explain why they should be chosen for the next SMOB.
The SMOB nominating convention is Wednesday, February 11 during the school day. The chosen delegates will be excused from classes this day, but are responsible for any work assigned by your teachers.
If you are interested in being a member of the delegation from Watkins Mill HS, you need to complete the form below. WMHS has 8 slots for the delegation. If more than 8 students apply, students will be randomly selected to attend.
This form will close January 23 at 3 pm. The selection will be during STEP Friday, January 30 at STEP in B116 - all are welcome to view the random drawing
