STO Candidacy Application

State Thespian Officers (STOs) represent all of Georgia Thespians as they serve alongside the Georgia Thespians Chapter Board. Each school is allowed to send one candidate to run for office at the first LeadCon. Candidates should be prepared to answer questions and be prepared to present a speech at the second LeadCon. Attendance at both LeadCons is mandatory. Voting will take place at the second LeadCon. This is a year-long position which requires much dedication.
