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.

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.
