' The i3owers are H S Government reserved to the people by the people As expected the student council once again this year proudly represented the G.l'I.S. student body, Putting forth their outstanding leadership skills, the student council accomplished much to be proud of. The main focus of the student council this year was to enforce their SMILE lStudent Myth information Learning Experiencel project encouraging students that drugs and alcohol are not needed in order to have fun. One week was set aside in which pamphlets were given out, lust Say No t-shirts were sold, films and a speaker were available for teachers to take their classes to see, and bandits, which were agreements between students not to drink or use alcohol, were sold. However the encouragement did not stop. An assembly was held in which Jerry Johnston spoke about his past drug experiences, Posters were hung, anti-drug buttons were sold, and flyers were put on cars. Another proiect student council proudly accomplished was their traditional Thanksgiving Canned Food Drive, Breaking last year's record, the student council collected over 5,000 cans with the help of the student body. Many students are aware of the homecoming activities during homecoming week, but they are unaware of who helps make them possible. During this week, student council put forth countless hours preparing for a successful homecoming, These preparations include court elections balloon sales and release, Hall of Fame activities, and the bonfire. In order to help others learn of the importance of leadership in the community, the student council hosted the Presidential Classroom with the help of the Bell student council. The workshop carried the theme of the Constitution in celebration of the Constitution's 200th birthday. Helping others when they are in need is a responsibility the student council took seriously, One example is the Roundman fund in which the student council began to help a member of the custodial staff. The student council also conducted a blood drive in order to help those in need of blood. The student council also conducts many tasks which were not often noticed by many students, These activities included fall registration ond orientation, the concession stand, all elections, morning announcements, the message board, and the student council window, which informed students of coming events. In order for the members to enhance their leadership abilities, they attended several workshops and conferences which included the TCU summer workshop, district conferences, state conference, which was held in Austin, and national conference at New York. The student council of G,H,S. worked hard all year long knowing that their efforts were not always noticed, but they gained self- satisfaction of knowing that they made a difference in their school and community. sk , l- One more for the sophomores.
