Some had to sing jingle bells in a uCircle-K blind folded, while others had to buy something in a store with the six pennies they carried in a bas- ket. After all the initiation ceremonies the students were taken to McDonalds for breakfast and were served pancakes, sausages, and orange juice. The chaperones were Principal Dr. Preston, Assistant Principal Mr. Bailes and his wife, and Ms. Welch the DECA Coordinator.

The coordinator for our chap- ter is Ms. Bobbie Welch. She has been in- volved in our D.E.C.A. chapter for T3 years. This club has helped the students learn a little more about what it was like in the working world and prepares them for employment. Students were involved with in class projects that dealt with retailing, merchandising, ap- parel and accessories and many other busi- ness oriented activities. The main thing about D.E.C.A. was the conferences. To start off the year, D.E.C.A. held a workshop at the First United Method- ist Church with a variety of guest speakers. The most fascinating guest was U of A Coach Larry Smith's wife Cheryl, who talked about the physical fitness business. Another inter- esting speaker was Ms. Robin Schultz who told of her experience with the Fashion lnsti- tute of Design and Merchandising. She dis- cussed the importance of first impressions at iob interviews. Tucson winter conference was held in Feb- ruary andthe state conference in March. The conferences were very different in that they got the students more involved by personal interviewing. - By Sally Greening gi: . 'B' ..l9 s1.,'.uw-W - . f- . V- . gp- r-xv.

STUDENTS AGAINST DRIVING DRUNK u Raising the level of awareness of the prob- lems and consequences of drinking and driv- ing while making S.A.D.D. a recognized or- ganization on campus were the main goals of this 30-member club.

Officers were President: Steven Andrea- cola Uuniorl, Vice President: Bill Fisher Uu- niorj and Secretary, Michelle Cole Uuniorj. Co-sponsors were Mr. Jackie Davis and Mrs. Marie Grumka. Meetings were held after school on Wednesdays in K-I , and follow up meetings on Thursday mornings in F-8. - By Angie Watson IIS.A.D.D. wants you to live to see the future, so Don't Drink And Drive! STUDENT The purpose of S.A.C. is to advise T.U.S.D. on student opinions and take action in community and student-school affairs. SAC helps further the education of members by allowing them to express their concerns and communicate with the school board. In the past four years SAC has strengthened and bridged gaps between the administra- tors and students. Year to year goals were a priority, howev- er student evaluations of teachers were this year's highlight. Senior Jennifer Cook stat- ed, 'II'd like to see us make a greater impact not just on the District or City, but State or even Regional issues that involve the stu- dents. The four Cholla members of this organiza- tion were Seniors Jennifer Cook, Bianca Gon- zalez, Susan Hooper and Junior AI Almazan. All SAC offices were headed by students in the District and advised by Mr. VViIIiarns, a Tucson High counselor. The officers were as follows: President Valerie Vidal - Santa Rita, Vice President Steve Daniels - Palo Verde, and Student liason - Jennifer Cook - Cholla. Meetings were held every third Tuesday of the month at the district building.
