see Student Community Organization SCO is not just an ordinary orga- nization, but something more. It is made of people who want to build a certain unity among faculty and stu- dents, deepen school spirit, and pro- vide opportunities for others to be- come involved, and of those who are happiest when working with other people. The Student Community Or- ganization is not limited to only helping the school, but it reaches out to those in the community. All the money raised during the annual Spir- it Month was given to the Sisters of St. Joseph Missions. At the mixer, “A Few Nights Before Christmas”, money and toys were collected and donated to St. Vincent Day Care Center. The WPA Dance, also spon- sored by SCO, was a wonderful suc- cess. All those who attended certain- ly received “A Kiss From the Heart.” SCO did not forget to let the faculty know how much they were appreciated. A special FAD (Faculty Appreciation Day) was given just to them. SCO officers, (back from left): Barbara Sterner, treasurer; Lisa Hale, Secretary.

Paula’s outstanding school spirit was reflected in her participation in SCO (of which she was president her senior year), Medaille Group, Mission Club, and position on the volleyball team for three years. She has obtained an extraordinary record in community service. She has been a volunteer at Catholic Worker House, and participated in Red Cross adapted aqua- tic program.

Three other girls were recognized as nominees: Susan Broski, Mary Piewa, and Jennifer Wood. These girls too, were a service to others both inside and outside their school community.
