A fm MM .minn- Contacting the invisible student became one of many student council tasks since at- tending the summer workshop in San Marcos. Getting in touch with the inactive or so called invisible student has always been a problem, sponsor Mrs. Jan Edwards commented. The recognition committee recognized anyone who had outstanding achievement, whether in sports, academics, or club activities. Todd Phelps received recognition during football season when be became Player of the Weekw in the Fort Worth Star- Telegram. Senior Pete Ullman also received recognition for his score on the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test. Points kept the SC members in line. lt had been set up so that the members re- mained active. Junior Diana McGill received the most points. Ml received most of my points by work- ing in community projects and in school functionsf' Diana replied. The teacher's relationship with SC con- tinued through secret pal activities. STUDENT COUNCIL Contacting invisible student leaders' goal Bench-style foyer furniture choice of officers i'Secret pals is a form of teacher ap- preciation. Students send gifts to teachers on holidays such as Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's Day and Easter. The teachers do not know who their secret pal is until the end of the year at a revealing party. In the past, the students would put their birthdays on an information sheet for the teachers, then most teachers would go to the records and look up that date and find out who their pals were. So, this year we left off birthdates and just had a Universal Birthday Party, Secretary Debbie McGee said. The teachers told the SC how they felt about their activities through evaluation. The SC evaluation period came around every nine weeks. 'fThe teachers gave us an over all grade of an A, but in the suggestion area, teachers said we needed more student in- volvement, vice-president Steve Mylius remarked. Money to pay for the water tower had been earned by selling aluminum cans, spirit ribbons, and senior t-shirts. The Gong Show assembly raised 31,000 to help, Money from the movie One on One and working the concession stands at one of the JROTC meets also went to the water tower fund. Although the total amount due for the art work was S2,500, City Manager Mr. Pat Moffatt arranged for the SC to pay a 51,000 a year until it is paid. Money also had been raised to buy new furniture for the foyer. The council had picked the type of furniture to be pur- chased and settled on a price. The furniture was bench type, made of wood and carpet. The carpet colors, which covered the furniture, was dark brown. Many pieces of the furniture were also ultrasstriped in orange and brown. The cost of the furniture was approx- imately 33,400 It was built by carpenters, Mr. A. D. Pickett, senior counselor Mrs. Libby Conant stated. Mrs. Conant ordered the furniture after the SC officers made their choice. 'fDespite all the tasks we took on and no matter what assemblies we presented not everyone is not going to like them, Presi- dent Robb White commentedl 1 Y'
