In addition to the school newspaper we put out every three weeks, we publish four parent news letters sent to the homes, a literary magazine and a calender featuring different aspects of the school, said Sandy Finerman, newspaper advisor. Cortez is the only school in Phoenix and one of the few schools across the nation to win this award three years in o row. We print what the students feel and things that affect them, stated Carol Trachier, co-editor. In past years, The Spectator, as well as the staff, has won first place awards and many state and national individual reporting awards. By Kim Matas Spectator Staff Spectators Staff 25

Honors of the Day To encourage and stimulate the qualities of scholarship, service, leadership, and character in the students of Cortez High School, is the purpose ofthe National Honor Society, accor- ding to their constitution, said Charles Hoyt, club sponsor. At the beginning of the school year Cheryl Flynn, club presi- dent, said, l hope N.H.S. will be a strong, really active club. We want to get everybody involved to help the community. Her expectations were not exaggerated. N.H.S. was involved in many school, as well as community, projects throughout the year. Club members held a Halloween and an Easter party at the Latch Day School for handicapped children. They also went Christmas caraling at a rest home as part of their community services. N.H.S. also sponsored a dance and car wash and participated in the Christmas Bazaar. N.H.S. is an honor for students, said Cheryl. lt's like you're in N.H.S. to benefit others more than yaurself, she added.
