Detaileel planning anal bara' were were the early goalf of STUCO, anal tlaey lea' flee ref! of the .ftaelent body by Student Council officers, once elected, are committed to more than nine months of work, con- trary to popular belief. The 1987-1988 members actually began their work during the pre- vious school year. ln April, four of them attended a state con- vention in Austin, where work on community and school proj- ects were emphasized. The following June, the entire group went to a Student Council camp at Texas Christian Uni- versity. There,the Junior and Senior Class Officers were di- vided and grouped with officers from other schools to form their own student councils. Skit pres- entations and group meetings dealing with the various posi- tions on the councils were among the many activities. Events became more localized in late July and early August, EXA PLE when the group met at the home of Mrs. Mary LaCroix, the Stu- dent Council sponsor. There, Howdy Week, Homecoming, and the Spring Dance were planned, along with other activ- ities. As the summer work and planning ended, there was enough time for the individual council members to have their own vacations. They also threw a party to start off the new year. The occasion was a success as all of the representatives and officers became acquainted and reacquainted with new plans for the year. During the school year the council stayed busy organizing and promoting many different activities. These included the Ar- bor Day, where officers planted a tree in the center courtyard, One of the daily activities of Student Council Officers.

Be- tween Larry and Mr. Hensarling ' one could never tell what might happen next. Being a student council officer 1 was an everyday task and much of their work was so expected A' and so routine,to other students it often went unnoticed. , ,Uv 0, '- W . ,jeg-5' - ':Jr,.g- -- , 9'-Exif 4 - ff , , T f-' .. - , .4 , 1 L .I 'L it-gr' T a ' i '
