Student Council Makes Year Special Members keep the school spirit moving with different activities. Who was responsible for setting up dances and many other exciting events that took place during the school year? The Student Council of course! Whether it was the pep assemblies, dances, or fund raisers, the Student Council was almost always involved. The Halloween dress-up day started off the year. There was a contest for the best three costumes. The judging took place in the lunchroom and finally during 6th hour, prize money was given to the winners. The first dance came next, with the theme of 50s dress. The boys wore white T-shirts and slicked-back hair; while the girls came in either long white shirts and rolled up jeans or ponytails and poodle skirts. The dance also brought a special surprise. The DJ had a huge screen set up which flashed messages out to the crowd. The day of the dance was also 505 dress day. Many of the teachers joined in the fun. Buying a card for a sweetheart and having it delivered to them on the 13th of February was made possible by Student Council. They sold Valentine cards during lunch 104 from February 9th through February 12. The Valentinels dance also made Friday the 13th special. At 7:30 people began to arrive at the school door except this time things were different. The girls asked the boys to the dance or to dance once they started dancing. ttl thought it was neat that the girls were given the chance to ask the guys to dance? stated Julie Holman, a freshman who attended the dance. To finish the school year off with a bang, another dance was held. Some of the money made by the many Student Council fund raisers bought new books for the Media Center and the flowers planted in the planter in the front of the school building. Paying for DJs and decorations for dances also used some of the council's money. Being on the Student Council meant different things to different people. To Marci Bihn, treasurer, it meant ttrepresenting the school? Trisia Evola, secretary, thought, ttlt was fun to set up what we got to do.
