Another year has passed and another chapter of Student Council history has come to a close. This year's Council worked with the student body in a prevailing mood of mutual respect. They both strived for friendship, fun, and hard work and built tremendous respect at the same time. jerry Rodriguez was a strong president and, along with the rest of the Executive Board, provided excellent leadership. Father Fred Moffett, new adviser this year, helped the members resolve some of their difficulties . The class officers filled one of the most important roles on the council: they were the voices of the students.

Christmas Brings Joy And Fun Right: We must never forget why we celebrate Christmas. Below: Mrs. Edging attempts to break pinata at Christmas party. Bottom: Seconds later! Fun, refreshments and the spirit of Christmas made the Student Council sponsored Christmas party an event to remember. Christmas carols were sung in two languages . Mrs . Carrico's French students sang several French carols, and the Spanish students joined Mr. Mordini in singing Spanish carols . The Spanish students prepared two pinatas filled with candy and money. They were hung from the roof of the old gym and students from each class took turns trying to break them. After several students failed, Father Schmidt took his cracks, and after several attempts a mighty whallop sent students diving for the candy. A second pinata was hung, and secretary Mrs . Edging took her cuts at it. Soon students were again diving! Then everyone settled down with cookies and hot chocolate.
