The seven council members met every- day to plan the school ' s events. We have meetings and discuss student needs, said Lynne Westafer. USL also organized new activities such as Poly Day, Disney Day, and Far Eastern Day. Through the work of USL, students were able to participate in many excit- ing events. Another such group that represented the student body was the SCHOOL SITE COUNCIL. SSC is a powerful organization that oversees the plan- ning, implementing, and monitoring of the School Improvement Program. stated SIP coordinator Bonnie Rose. Equipped with a $100,000 budget for student benefit, SSC decided where the money was to be spent. Some of it paid for the Academic Decathlon, the Mock Trial Team, a computer for the newspaper, and a copy machine for the library. Members from the PTA, staff and stu- dents were elected by their peers. Said student member Jay Stanley, If there is a problem that bothers me, I can tell the administration my opinion. Though SSC and USL were two differ- ent organizations, they functioned to- gether to maintain an active and effi- cient school. ••■ Ever concerned with minute details, Bon- nie Rose show: ;■ i:,.
