Languages flourish N With a growing membership, 60 members compared to 1984-1985's 30 members, French Club members were very enthusiastic. In addition to the trip taken to San Francisco, the club participated in various fundraisers, some of which included working at the concession stand, selling Valentine's Day buttons, and making a French cookbook. According to Iune Blanc, French Club president, the main purpose of the club was to gain more cultural experiences that a French class can't provide. Other officers included Manjeet Singh, vice-presidentg Lisa Townsend, treasurer, and Marievita Ilog, secretary. German restaurants, celebrating a German-style Christmas party, and an end of the year swim party were activities German Club participated in. The main trip planned was to Peta's German Restaurant in Stockton where there was a variety ofauthentic German food to sample. When asked about the enthusiasm of members, President Mike Lopez stated, The general attitude is very healthy. While spiritedness can be hard to maintain due to the scarcity of German-related activities, we do have a lot of fun. - Michele Remsing, Kiki Tzargarakis German Club: KFRONT ROWJ Kristina Martin, Chris McPherson, Monique Kamille, Lee Herrick, Shawn Hicks, Shelly Karam, Kiki Tzagarakis, Carmina Quadros, jennifer Gainey, Shane Kao, Mike Woodward, CBACK ROWJ Trina Prater, jill Carlisle, Will Wong, Ieremy Edenberger, Iason Priest, Kent Hulick, john Anglim, instructor Margret Rose, Wyatt Fiskum, Mike Lopez, Stephanie Hanway, Ionathon Trimble, Diana Cummings, jennifer Myers.

Peer facilitators, inter-high p Promoting better communication between students and the board of kducation, allowing students from different high schools to exchange ideas, and helping students develop leadership skills was the purpose of Inter-High. Students participating in .Inter-High benefitted by learning how fthe school system works. Davis has been active in Inter-High for many years. All Inter-I-Iigh officers attended Davis: Becky Bowers, president, Mike Toyryla, vice-president, Kate Renwick, secretaryltreasurer. To Becky Powers Inter-High has been a positive experience for Davis. It has given Davis students the opportunity to organize activities district wide, work with all four schools' student councils, and expand their knowledge of how our district operates. Confidentiality is primary, stated Melinda Niemi, peer facilitating advisor. Ms. Niemi added that besides being confidential, facilitators were caring, genuine and trustworthy. Students who were peer facilitators were either recommended by staff members or had requested to become one. Their training was one quarter long and consisted aid Davis primarily of listening and communica- tion skills. A few of peer facilitating's activities consisted of new student orientation, where each new student received a facilitator, ineligibility interviews, where facilitators gave students information as to how they could become eligible for extra curricular activities, a big brother and sister program provided to selected students at Somerset Iunior High, and facilitating at Hutton House for runaways. - Michele Remsing, Kiki Tzagarakis INH Peer Facilitating: CFRCNT ROW?
