The student body voted for members of their class to be representatives. Four Sophomores, four Juniors and five Seniors make up the student council. One of the most popular projects by the student council has been Grubby Day . Stu- dents pay 25? for the right to wear shorts or slacks to school for a day. A money-raising project which provided fun for everyone was the Sadie Hawkins dance in February. One of the main topics at their meetings was the student lounge. It was finally okayed if they raised enough money to pay for half of the partitions which would be needed.
