Class of 2024
Hi! My name is Jordan Brazeau and I am the Class President of the Senior class of 2024. I ran for office due to it being our last year and I feel like we needed more fun events. I hope to have a wonderful and fun year as I think we’ve accomplished it so far, but that challenge doesn’t stop until graduation! Along with being Class president, I’m also an officer in VAASA, a member of the basketball team, and a member of the yearbook club. Overall, I look forward to the rest of my class’s senior year!
My name is Trevor DiPanni and I am the class of 2024’s treasurer. I am a team member on the Toll Gate cross-country team and I am also the captain of both the indoor and outdoor track teams. This year I am hoping to provide ample fundraising and donation opportunities that are easy enough so that all students can participate. My goal is to make all Toll Gate events as cheap and easy to run as possible so that it can be as fun a year as it can be. Some things I love to do in my free time are going skiing, going outdoors, enjoying nature, and playing sports for fun. What made me run for class officer was I saw where we as a class could improve and I wanted to be the leader who stepped up and did all they could.

Hello there! My name is Rebecca Farias. I am the junior class (Class of 2025) student officer secretary. This is my second year in this specific position and my third year as a student officer. I do a lot of other extracurricular activities inside of school. I have run for student officer for all of these years because I want to help and I want to represent our class and fight for what we want and believe is right. In addition to being a student officer, I am on the Toll Gate Tribune, in the TG drama club, chorale, yearbook, and on the academic decathlon. I am very passionate about music. I dedicate myself to three different instruments outside of school and singing has been a priority for me throughout my high school career. I have taken a chorus/show choir class for the past two years and am taking chorus again this year, as well as chorale (after school). My priorities for our junior year is to focus on our school events and money raising. A huge priority this year is junior prom. I am hoping to help plan a really amazing Junior prom for us this year. I’m sure that it will all work out and turn out great. I am confident that we are going to have an amazing year.

Hi, my name is Rain Mello. I am a junior here at Toll Gate and I run the Class of 2025 Instagram and TikTok accounts. I’m in the Bio-med pathway and a part of the student council. Last year I began helping Mrs. Collins, the 2025 class advisor, and the class officers with some of their work. We realized we wanted to change the direction the Instagram account was going in as well as make it more interactive in the class. This year this goal still stands. I love being able to share information and get your opinions on things pertaining to our class. I also enjoy taking and receiving everyone’s pictures for the account to hold our high school memories. I love helping Mrs. Collins and our class officers whenever I can. We have become a very strong team and we are very dedicated to doing well for the class of 2025!
Class of 2026
Greetings to the Toll Gate community! My name is Samantha Lin, and I’m the President of the class of 2026. I am an active member of multiple Toll Gate clubs, including the Academic Decathlon, Math Club, and Student Council. Moreover, I am also a part of the Toll Gate Swim Team. The position of Class Office President intrigued me for a multitude of reasons, notably the leadership opportunity that is presented along with the position. In addition, I wanted to participate in the student-body government which plays an important role in managing the matters regarding my class, like high school events and dances. As Class Office President I aim to further increase the enjoyment of high school by listening to the ideas that are presented by my fellow peers. To allow the ideas to flourish, however, the student government needs money. Therefore, another one of my goals as the President is to help raise enough capital, through various fundraisers, to put the ideas into action. I can’t wait to work with everyone to enhance the collective high school experience for all!
