Grade 4 Student Finn Keogh is Head of Schools for the Day

Grade 4 student Finn Keogh welcomed students, discussed school facilities and policies, met with senior administrators, looked after the Head's dog, Freddy, and made some tough decisions in his role as Head of Schools for the day. This opportunity was part of a live auction item won by his parents at the 2016 Gator Gala last March.

Mr. Keogh, in shirt and tie, embraced the role. "I got to do things like tour the dorms instead of doing math," he said. He also mentioned enjoying being called Mr. Keogh instead of Finn.

Mr. Keogh cited decision-making as one of his main challenges. "You can't just say maybe," he said. "You have to say yes or no. You have to take responsibility and not mess around."
