The Student Councils are organizations composed of students elected from their respective classes to lead and govern the student body. To be a member one has to have a C or better average in scholarship and a B or better in citizenship. The Junior High Student Council is composed of nine members. There are two representatives from the seventh grade, and three representatives from the eighth grade, one of which is the vice-president. The four members from the ninth grade include the president. The Senior High Student Council is also composed of nine members. There are two representatives from the tenth grade, and three representatives from the eleventh grade, including the vice-president. There are four senior members, one of whom is the president. The purpose of the Student Councils is to encourage and to co-ordinate student activities. It attempts to boost the morale and school spirit through sponsoring social activities and promoting the ideals of good school citizenship. Aiding in drives, campaigns, and other similar phases of the school program also plays an important part in the Councils' work. The Student Councils of this year are to be congratulated on the fine work which they did. Without them and their work, our school system could certainly have not run as smoothly as it did. Their help and understanding was appreciated by the entire student body. 25
