HECE Home Economics Career Education is a work program offered for students who want to work while they go to school. The class is open to juniors and seniors who are at least 16 years old. Students learn how to become better employees through classroom instruction as well as on-the-job training. The key to success in the HECE pro- gram is ambition, since students must want to succeed and some of them even had to come to school at approximately 7:30 for “zero hour class. The traditional fund raising activity for HECE is the Valentines Day sale of carnations. This year's sale was a success as members delivered carnations to first period classes. HECE ended the year with its tradi- tional banquet, recognizing outstanding members as well as outstanding employ- 1.

Chapter Garners Awards The 1985-86 year was a very good year for the Future Farmers of America. They start- ed off the year by beginning their produc- tive project. This is the project students must do which includes growing a plant or raising some type of livestock. By the end of the first semester the stu- dents in FFA had raised their productive projects enough to take them to the pros- pect livestock show. These are livestock shows that have no significant value except for practice for the upcoming district shows. The livestock shows Pflugerville students attended were the Fort Worth Show at the end of January, San Antonio in the Middle of February, Houston at the end of February and Austin in April. After all of these shows they met for the district ban- quet and awards ceremony, where many Pflugerville students received awards. The area convention and banquet in San Marcos was in the middle of May, and FFA students also won awards there also. The FFA students attended the state con- vention in Amarillo in July where they again competed for awads. We've enjoyed another challenging and successful year and I am looking forward to continuing the tradition of FFA in Pflugerville for a long time ' commented Gerald Wilke.
