Student government at Arcadia has progressively improved with experience and the new approaches which have developed over the years. Many subiects relating to student interests and prob- lems have been acted upon or discarded by members of the gov- erning groups as they have learned to exercise judgment and foresight in the planning and execution of proiects. Working within the framework of school administration policy, they have considered such subiects as the activity program, which includes pep rallies, assemblies, dances and special events. ln addition, they have been concerned with student codes of con- duct on campus, and they have served as a liaison between student groups and the school administration by presenting the student's point of view on many matters. Election time during the spring semester is always an important event on campus, when students learn to choose and vote for the campus leaders whom they feel will best represent them. The drama of the campaigns and election assemblies has been a highlight of this important event. Members of the Executive Council, each assuming the respon- sibility for a segment of the total planning problem, are actively engaged in planning different projects. The selection of com- petent committee members for the proiects and directing their activities toward successful completion has also been a part of their responsibility. Serving in more personal capacities, Advisory Council members as a group endeavor to seek out the reasons for some students' lack of adiustment to the high school environment. Through the Council's efforts, many vexing or perplexing personal problems of students have been clarified and lessened. The third segment of student government, the House of Rep- resentatives, is composed of a representative from each class- room on campus. Matters of general student concern in any classroom may be brought to the attention of the Student Council and the Administration through the duly elected representative from that section. Meeting rather regularly cluring the school year, members of the House are free to present their ideas. Con- versely, these same representatives report decisions and matters under consideration within the House itself to their class groups. In yet another facet of student government, the Girls' League performs an important function. The creation of a fri among girls, the fostering of good campus support, and the wel- coming of new girls to Arcadia High are only a few of the functions which are an important part of Girls' League activities Throughout the years several annual customs have developed including the Big Sister-Little Sister picnic, the Christmas tea and the early spring Parent-Daughter banquet which this year hon- ored mothers. endly spirit Governmenf
