Skiers enjoy great winter season The I984-85 ski season proved to be an exciting one. Trips to Purga- tory and Brianhead highlighted the season. Both were three day trips in late January and early March. The cost of the trips was Sl35 per person. 45 students went on each trip. The groups chartered Grey- hound buses. There were 50 students in the ski club. Many beginning skiers were helped by three experienced skiers, Mr. Kalbach, Mr. Johnson, and Mrs. Andro, sponsors. lt was a great winter for ski- ing, said Mr. Johnson. All the stu- dents had a wonderful time. Studen ts compete in Olympics Four students from Paradise Val- ley School District competed in the Winter Special Olympics held in Flagstaff, Arizona on February 23 and 24.

Cooperative Office Education teaches students the responsibility of working in office related jobs doing secretarial work to filing. Students go to school in the morning and they go to a job in an office related area in the after- noon. COE students receive 2 credits for the class. COE students do more than just work. Getting involved in social ac- tivities is just as important as working. There were many social activities this year including a Piz- za Party, Co-op Halloween party and a Christmas Party. Fundraisers were also a major concern of COE. COE students needed to raise money for the Fu- ture Business Leaders of America Conference in Phoenix and Tuc- son. They raised the money by sell- ing Fudge Hut, mugs and gift checks. COE also participated in the Vo- cational Officer Leadership Train- ing Convention during October. The officers gained a lot of valu- able experience, said Miss Sue Ro- senblat, COE coordinator. The group closed their year with the annual Employer-Employee banquet. All the co-op groups from Paradise Valley, Shadow Mountain and Horizon got together at the Pointe for the district wide ban- quet. Senior Jeanne Stine works on the Word Processor. l59
