Heading the student administrative life at Grants Pass High is the executive board and student council. Among major points of discussion by the executive board were such things as the purchase of band uniforms, student body funds, Jay-Vee letters, neon sign for the top of the old building, and the purchase of a recreation building from Camp White. Also, it was decided that all school board members, past and present, be given lifetime passes to all school activities. Student council, which is made up of representatives from all classes and clubs, has tried to aid student government by suggesting methods for traffic control in the halls and for improvement of conduct at dances and in the halls.
