high school leadership resume for college scholarship

Can anyone tell me if the verb 'hold' is being used correctly in the following 3 bullets (or should it be 'holds'?):

Offices Held
• Elected and currently hold the office of Vice President of the Franklin High School Senior Class
for 2014-2015.
• Elected and currently hold the office of Treasurer of the National Honor Society for 2014-2015.
• Appointed and currently hold the office of Treasurer of the Franklin Girls Cotillion for
2014-2015.
  

Top answer

Yes, 'hold' is correct. But do you really need to add 'and currently hold'? Isn't that obvious if you say you were elected for 2014-2015?
