Taking a peek at our activities here at Groveton is likely to make a new¬ comer dizzy. Each student is able to lo¬ cate an organization devoted to his in¬ terests or hobbies among the various Tiger-supported clubs. These twenty-two clubs and various organizations spon¬ sored events that promoted good rela¬ tions with the public and contributed to school spirit. We profited this year by having an organized student government, whose main accomplishment was placing stu¬ dent life so that there is an opportunity for all to participate in the activities of their choice. The purpose of our activities pro¬ gram was to produce a social, as well as an educational background for Groveton- ites. It was in this field that our student co-operation, promoted by the honor code, was best displayed. Acceptance of the honor code lay in the decision of each individual student and was signi¬ fied by his signature on the personal honor card distributed to each student. The staff endeavors to present the opportunities offered to us in clubs and activities on the following pages. accept these hitjh standards as a ncccssiti) to our development oj 1 honor and intecjriti) Ethics committee, art and Industrial Art Departments collaborate in giving to the school the beautiful framed Honor Code that hangs in the front lobby.

Student Government Takes on a New Look This year the Student Co-operative Associa¬ tion operated fully organized. It is patterned after our National Government consisting of a Cabinet, a Senate, and a House of Representa¬ tives. The cabinet is composed of the five elected officers and thirteen appointed secretaries. Two senators are elected from each of the five classes and each homeroom has a representative in the House of Representatives. Each of the secretaries had a committee dur¬ ing the school year and performed certain jobs and duties related to its office. The Senate composed a committee that worked toward a point system in order that the activities of the students might be limited and that those excelling in activities might be re¬ warded. The homeroom representatives met every two weeks and all matters that needed to be taken to the homerooms were discussed and taken back by the representatives. The staff has pictured throughout the ’58 Tigerama all the Secretaries and their committees in action for a better Groveton High.
