Almost every school has a student senate that discusses and tries to solve the prob- lems that come up in the school. The Rocky High Senate is made up of 43 members, each representing a different senate room. Senators are chosen by the members of their respective senate rooms, and before they are selected, such qualities as good citizenship, loyalty, leadership, and the ability to maintain at least a C average in their studies must be considered. The leaders of this year's Senate were Frank Edwards, presidentg Charles Wil- son, vice-president, and Marilyn Hixson, secretary. The sponsor is E. S. Metcalf, dean of boys at the high school. Meetings are held once a month during the ninth period in his room. Many topics have been brought before the Senate this year. The main projects were the traditional Homecoming dance, the Red Cross boxes sent overseas, and the filling of Christmas baskets sent to needy families of students in the school. Another job for the school which the Senate always undertakes is the planning of the assembly programs for the following year.
