East Side Story u A special added touch! This defines special effects. Every extracurricular organization at East added an extraordinary effect to our East Side Story in 1984-5. The many extra hours put in before, during and after school added dimen- sion to student Rfe at East. Each ampli- fied the exciting and amazing rotes which built our story. Whether it was students learning leadership, partici- pating in Student Government, responding at athletic events, present- ing dramas, singing songs, shooting pictures or debating a social issue, the nigh level of involvement shown by the students was an important factor in making the special effects at East memorable. This specific chapter for organiza- tions could go on and on, because we had so many effects to be proud of. Being a part of any organization brought a bright, meaningful reward to all who were involved. So just as a special effect highlight a movie or play, East High organizations highlighted our school.

Student Government very important role in East High student life Amina Wardak Fall Vice-President Student Government is an important part of every high school, it is just that impor- tant at East High School. Our Student Government was made up of four senators from each grade and four senior officers. These people made up the Senate. They are elected each semester. The main goal of the Student Government was to make school improvement and improve student involvement. Student Government did many things to raise money and to involve the students. These activities included the football jamboree, Homecoming activities, mixers, a blood drive, and a chili supper. The Student Government was spon- sored by Mr. Walt Kennedy. Brian James, senior senator and the official disc jockey at mixers said, Stu- dent Government has been a very pos- itive experience, it was a lot of fun and has made me a better person.
