VanSchooten, B. Kolder, Ieralyn Graves, M. Helmink. The marquee is just one of the many benefits for the student body that the student council has added to Norris in the past few years. Members are kept active changing the letters every time something new comes up. The marquee is decorated with a titan head at the top in the school colors of red, white, and blue. Representatives attended the NASC Convention in November of 1976. They stayed at the Omaha Hilton and went to many meetings. The council held a traditional dance for the eighth graders at the beginning of the year to get things off to a good start. In April, the council planned for a carnival and a variety show to help fund the marquee. Students as well as faculty members participat- ed in the acts. It's Karen's week to change the marquee and she starts by putting up the wrestling schedule.
