Learning To Cooperate Through Clubs The Junior National Association of the Deaf had a Bacl to the Fu- ture party in which students dressed up in different costumes of the 1900 ' s, 1970 ' s and 2000 ' s. On PTCO Day they sold banana splits and snow cones to earn money for their future activities. Student Council had only one special event. They helped set up a Breaking the Ice party to wel- come MSSD to ISD during the bas- ketball homecoming weekend. Adventure Club sold lottery tick- ets for pizzas every Sunday night in the dorm. They also threw pies in the faces of administrators and su- pervisors. They took weekend trips to caves. They learned to trust each other by playing trust games. Wildfire, a performing group of high school and middle school stu- dents, appeared at the Governor ' s Conference and numerous places throughout Indiana. They had te- dious practice every night so they could put on an excellent program. Jr. NAD — FRONT ROW: Doug Mader. Katie Breedlove. Damn Green. Jason LaFeber, Mike Mol ris. Mictieile Simpson.

Joi Holsapple and Caria Gunn practice slid- ing down to the floor as part of their routine for Wildfire. IT ' S NOT EASY for different groups to change gradually to be- come the best. The Jr. NAD mem- bers learned how to improve thSTT leadership style by going to the Jr. NAD convention. This group set up activities to earn money for its funds. The Student Council stressed the importance of student voice in the school. They encouraged students to take active leadership roles. Adventurous students joined the Adventure Club. They went to caves, ski resorts, and camps to add more exciting activities to their leisure time. Students who were talented in mime, dancing, and singing partici- pated in Wildfire. Wildfire traveled statewide to entertain hearing peo- ple from various schools and organi- zations. The Girls ' Club was for girls who wanted the closeness of sisterhood. They planned activities to make money and held rap sessions. Un- fortunately, as the year progressed, the Girls ' Club ceased to function because of the conflict in setting up activities. These groups put in a lot of effort into their contributions and the members were able to gain valuable leadership skills. Adventure Club members show their inquisi- tive, but daring, natures as they attempt to build a pyramid.
