Students campaign for a voice on Madison School Board

Gayle Worland:

Call it the “student liaison whistle-stop tour.”
Four ambitious candidates will be making the rounds today at Madison high schools — giving stump speeches, outlining their platforms and extending a teenaged handshake to anyone who’s interested.
Jonathan Delgado, a sophomore at East High School, Sarah Maslin, a junior at West, and Nathan Powell, a junior at Memorial, are in a three-way race for the position of student liaison to the Madison School Board, a job that entails rounding up and representing the opinions of the district’s 25,000 students.
