Council Works For Unity and Spirit Feeling good about school and the people at school was one of the ways that the student council worked for the benefit of Palo Verde. Motivation rang clearly from the mouths of the Student Council, and many activities were carefully planned year-round. How does one go about getting a whole school motivated? Offer the students new and imaginative ideas. Some of the ideas that the council threw out to the students included more and more spirit activities during both lunches. Having activities was just one of the many ideas through which the council was able to bring the school together and improve the social atmosphere at Palo Verde. Closeness among the students was strong all during the year, and what better way to display that spirit and closeness than to make them wiggle and squirm and squeeze themselves into a four by four box on the cafeteria floor? One more quick! Get a senior! These cheers were heard echoing throughout the lunch room. The senior took first due to their in- genious idea of stacking three students on top of each other and holding them for the duration of the time limit. And let's not forget the juniors who took second with only one per- son less. Then came the balloon shaving contest during which the junior class showed their speed and agility by winning their spirit points over the seniors. Although there were a few changes made midway through the year, Student Council was able to stay on track and make this year uncomparable to all others. 118 Organizations
