f Commissioners Get It Done By ulling It Together The commissioners, as part of the Student Council, contributed to the ef- forts to improve school activities. The students that held such positions gave a hand whenever help was needed. They coordinated many of the school func- tions with great concern, pride, and most of all, dedication. Along with hav- ing many responsibilities, having these positions also held a more personal meaning for the commissioners-oppor- tunity. Seniors Gina Gonzales, Stefani Iz- quierdo, Tiffany Rice, and junior Mi- chelle Luna were the Pep commission- ers who proved just how much hard work being a commissioner took. As part of the Pep Squad, they were re- sponsibile for planning the rallies as well as Pep Week. The best part of the job, however, was getting all the stu- dents to cheer at the rallies, which gave them a sense of confidence. The Activities commissioners, senior Alexa Esparza and Matilde Medina, and juniors Miriam Diaz DeLeon, Su- zan Lund, and Jesse Ponce, also had their work cut out for them. They con- ducted the freshman activities, which included the orientation, masses, and elections, until the class had officers of their own.

The Religious Affairs commissioners, seniors Hernani Ledesma, Lissette Ri- bas, Nicole Wurster, and junior Allison Brown, definitely found a way to put good words into action. Every Tuesday, G they organized the class retreats. They also organized the class masses and the A.S.B. retreats. Being a commissioner was a rewarding experience that filled each with a sense of giving. Senior Roger Injarusorn and juniors Christina Bellinghausen, Denise San- doval, and Charmaine Tan were the Academic commissioners who made a big difference in the school. Their greatest responsibility was organizing and conducting the used book sale. The book sale raised money for the A.S.B., which financed many of the school ac- tivities. Helping our fellow students was a really exhilarating feeling. It was great to do something for others instead of yourself, Charmaine expressed. Being a commissioner provided these people with the opportunity to help others and to gain personal growth. Aside from great responsibility and hard work, however, it also meant fun and involvement. l Activities commissioners: fBottom to topjz Senior Alexa Esparza, juni Suzan Lund, Miriam Diaz DeLeon, Jesse Ponce, and senior Matilde Medin
