Leadership that works l Progressive, challenging, motivated, and yet, a group of friends, so diverse, working together, this was without a doubt, Parkway Central's stu- dent council '86f'87. The year began with much work to be done. Before school started, the council had their first meeting. The Fun Partyn officers separated the members into committees, with each committee having a task to complete before the end of the year. The 'Pride in Central Com- mittee,' which evaluated and found a logical way to promote school spirit, the 'Constitution Committeef which rewrote the Student Council constitution, and the 'Wall of Fame' commit- tee, which presented a plaque to the school, that included all of the names of the people who re- ceived awards on the all school awards night, were some of the committees student council ar- ranged. They were also responsi- ble for the new citizenship rule and the appeal board. lf a stu- dent received two l's or a U, he would be sus- pended from all school activities. lf hefshe want- ed to appeal this, then hefshe would have to confront the board with hisfher case, The council formed this board because they felt that if a student misbehaved in a classroom, then hefshe would not represent the school in activities. In September, the Student Council went on a 0 Student Life retreat. Here, the members went on a ropes and initiative course to unify themselves and grow closer together. Assistant Principal and Sponsor David Stauffer said, The Student Council re- treat provided members an opportunity to get to know each other, and to establish strong trusting relationships by working together to overcome Assistant Principal and Sponsor David Stauffer said, The student council retreat provided mem- bers an opportunity to get to know each other and to establish strong, trusting relationships by work- ing together to overcome stressful and demanding situations. stressful and demanding situations.

Also, the council had an all Parkway Cerebral Palsey dance-a-thon, which raised over 53,0005 students Awareness Week, presented topics of concern, such as AIDS, Bulimia! Anorexia, and teenage suicide prevention, was a success in itself. Over 5650, was raised through fund raisers for Chil- dren's Hospital during this week. A new program which was brought to Parkway Central was Stu- dents Against Multiple Sclerosis, or SAMS, which had three main events, the Rock-a-thon contest, the balloon lift-off, and the SAMS dance. Also, SAMS sweatshirts posters, and pins were sold. ln addition, Student Council and the PTO sponsored two blood drives which pr0- duced over 270 pints of blood. Student Council was a definite asset to Parkway Central, for it not only raised school excellence and student expectations, but also, helped others not as fortu- nate as they. i I I l i ,V In j,3lm 'i ai The Junior Treasurer, a The Sophor Tsai, Presid- The Freshm 'ln Stud fc fano .- .. :'.Y1aL,vf-' ii:-el'-f ' ' V ' V -Y-'M -L A-H P A ' U I .
