Becoming student body (or student council) president in middle school is easy if you're prepared to put in the work it takes to become qualified and get yourself noticed. You always want to be funny and able to relate with others. Everyone wants someone who is fun to be with and personable as their president. You also have to convince them by saying that you will change the school verbally, physically, and academically. Along with being funny you must also be serious. When you are serious you show that you can handle the things that may come to happen.
