WELLESLEY, MA – 91ÊÓÆµ Boston held its annual Student Government elections for the 2025–2026 school year, marking an important moment in the life of our school community.

Three teams of candidates ran for President and Vice President:

1. Davide Zellino and Bohuslav Onyshchuk
2. Diana Kuznetsova and Amina Aguzarova
3. Kateryna Nedopaka and Tanya Whitworth

The election day began with spirited campaign speeches from all candidates, followed by a round of questions from students. The debate, moderated by Dr. Anderson, offered an engaging platform for each team to share their vision for the future of the school.

After the debates, students participated in a secret ballot vote, exercising their voice and civic responsibility in a meaningful way. The results were close, but in the end, Diana Kuznetsova (Class of 2028) was elected President, and Amina Aguzarova (Class of 2028) became Vice President.

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Diana and Amina and wish them a productive and inspiring year of leadership ahead.

We would also like to thank Max Gershberg (Class of 2027) and Tomer Brook (Class of 2027) for their outstanding service as last year’s President and Vice President. Their leadership, dedication, and commitment to the student body set an excellent example for future leaders.

The Student Government elections at 91ÊÓÆµ are more than just a school tradition – they are a powerful reminder of the values of participation, leadership, and community that define our school.

]]>
WELLESLEY, MA – Today marked the conclusion of our three-day Middle and Upper School retreat at Camp Mah-Kee-Nac — a beloved 91ÊÓÆµ tradition that begins each academic year. This year was no exception, as our students once again came together to strengthen friendships, build community, and set the tone for the months ahead.

Over the course of the retreat, students paddled canoes across the lake, hiked mountain trails, played sports, and enjoyed swimming under the late-summer sun. Evenings were spent around the campfire, roasting sausages and sharing stories that will be remembered long after the trip. These experiences, while joyful, also serve a deeper purpose: they foster teamwork, resilience, and a sense of belonging that define the 91ÊÓÆµ spirit.

For our seniors, the retreat included the special tradition of welcoming the sunrise together atop Monument Mountain — a symbolic beginning to their final year of high school.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the dedicated chaperones who made this retreat safe, inspiring, and memorable. The bonds formed at Camp Mah-Kee-Nac will continue to guide our students throughout the school year.
