My administrative role was to co-organize our school’s annual Sport & Health Night. When co-organizing an activity like this, the majority of your efforts will be focused on the preparation of the night’s activities. Preparation for this event included making and distributing advertisements, identifying vendors, meeting with the PTO, finding volunteers, and many other logistical requirements.
I believe this event went very well with a wealth of participation from the faculty and community. Throughout this event, I was able to receive assistance from a fellow intern, Adam Yeany, who assisted in making the activities run smoothly and helped fill in any gaps in the process. In the planning and preparation process, I believe the most meaningful administrative task was my ability to divide the organizational tasks amongst faculty, volunteers, and the PTO members. Since different people were put in charge of the various tasks, each task was completed effectively and efficiently.
As a leader, I learned that in-depth planning, careful organization, and effective management of an event will provide a platform for the leader (myself) to become a positive role model through their participation of the event’s activities and interaction with staff, students, and community members. The most difficult part of this experience was getting the faculty to participate in the event’s activities. In the future, I will build a positive rapport with staff members and make their experiences during extracurricular events as enjoyable as possible.
This event works in coordination with our school’s mission and vision because we are providing opportunities for our students to strive towards excellence, whether it be in the classroom or in the community.
