1985 United Way Campaign . . . This year schools all around the metro- politan area collected money from students and staff members. Smith-Hale Junior High gave an overwhelming S2644 which was enough to lead the district' in competition. One homeroom that really did an excep- tional job was Mrs. Taylor's P.E. class of 34 girls. They gave S24-2.76, averaging 57.14 per student. Mrs. Blackwell's science class was a very close second. Mr. Ham, the principal, said, It has been a tremendous effort by the school as a whole. It's great! by Denise Terry and Carla Wolters Food for the Needy . . . Rogetta Buckner, STUCO president and Laila Mercomes, NJHS president, are pic- tured below with the school's 1000 plus items of food given to the South Kansas City Community Assistance program during the December, 1985 food drive. Ms. Waner, the STUCO sponsor, was instru- mental in organizing this drive. Because of the generosity of students and staff of Smith-Hale as well as the generosity of oth- ers in the community, 39 families had a brighter Christmas this year. High contributors . . .

1985-86 CANDY SALE . . . Mrs. TayIor's girl's P.E. class is pictured above with the 8 lb. candy bar they won for having high money turn-in during one day of the candy sale. Mr. Gillespie's homeroom is shown above drinking soft drinks after having high money turn-in on another day of the candy sale. Pictured below are several PTSA parents who helped with record-keeping during the candy sale. Several parents worked daily during the sale, and on the final day, many more were re- cruited to help with the great amount of money brought back in. This year 22,650 candy bars were checked out. Between October 3 and October 14, 19,650 candy bars were sold! Although this year's candy sale didn't break any records, Mr. Brown, the as- sistant principal in charge of the sale, was very pleased with the results. He did not have a single complaint. The money raised for Smith-I-Iale's own use after the prizes and cost of the candy had been subtracted was over 38,500 This will be used for PTSA, Student Council, dances, Pho- tography Club, Science Club, and much, much more. This year's high salesman was Jason Krueger who sold S350 worth of candy. The win- ner of the S100 drawing was Dana Braden. This year's high classroom in sales per person was Mrs. Taylor's homeroom, 102. This extraordinary class sold over 32,000 The neat thing was that the average sales per person was about S59 a student! Great job, Smith-Hale! Keep up the great work! by Jennifer Garnett Auswrn uwq Ms. DePaIma's class chose the 8 Ib. candy bar also when they had high money turn-in. The final day of the candy sale also meant bringing back in that candy which was unsold. Below, Rogetta Buckner, Shelley Holley, and Heidi Taylor help with this task. tg Sea-tion design by Carla Wolters
