Medina High School Student Council won many awards at the conference. The Five Star Council award recognizes schools that participate in training through OASL to develop leadership. The World Changers award gives distinction for outstanding service to others.

The Ohio Association of Student Councils sponsors a recognition program for the outstanding leaders in Ohio. These are kids who go beyond what is required. These are the students who stay that extra hour, work harder, say thank you more often, lead by example, and are respected by their peers and teachers. They are outstanding leaders who deserve to be singled out for their dedication. They represent a standard of excellence that sets them apart. Their leadership and guidance have brought new direction, insight, and imagination to the Council through their years of service. They have made a difference in Medina’s Student Council. This year, Seniors Bryn Heath, Kaitlyn Pierce, Ella Spangler, Alex Henry, and junior Delaney Fogle have earned this distinction. A huge congratulations to Lexi Davis Romine for earning the OASL Ambassador Award. The award recognizes students who actively participate in OASL events throughout the school year and use their leadership skills to promote OASL and its ideals at their school.
