School work and sports are just a part of the makings of Edina-West. There are a variety of other organizations that play a major role in contributing to our school's success. Each of these groups devote a great deal of time and energy attempting to make 1979-80 a most successful and memorable year. The Zephyrus. Calliope, and Windigo staffs have a non-stop job on their hands as they work to produce top-notch pieces of literary art. The Debate team dedicates hours upon hours of time to attain their usual outstanding results. The Cheerleaders, the Cougar- ettes. and Abuf are responsible for the spirit generated at pep tests and athletic events. There is Student Council, the coordinator of activities, fund-raisers. and routine mandatory jobs which must be done to keep our school running smoothly. Language clubs, the Thespians. Bands. Choirs... The list is endless! All of these clubs and organizations promote unity as well as a sense of belonging for a great deal of students. They inspire new ideas and traditions which make Edina-West our own SPECIAL place.

School is chatting with friends, roaming the halls, munching at snack-breaks, and various other excitement-packed activities. But there is another side to school which many students often forget; the academic part. This consists of the six daily regularily attended classes and the homework done out of school. [For some, the latter may be omitted.) Students view the learning part of school in various ways. To some, it is the mere process of getting by. That is. to take the most pup classes and do the most minimal amount of work to graduate. To' others, it may mean a schedule of advanced classes and nights occupied by homework as a preparation for college. No matter what part of the spectrum one places himself, there is no escape media for the academic life. But then, what would school be without it! 14
