Mrs. JoAnn Stovall. principal, and Diane Garza, Student Coun- cil president, discuss plans for the ceremony to plant a live oak tree in front of the school in memory of Christa McAuliffe as well as honor the faculty, on the first national Teacher Apprecia- tion Day. Jan 30, the first an- niversary of the Challenger ex- plosion, was designated by President Ronald Reagan to honor the first teacher in space. Student Council has made a lasting impact on my life. More than anything else, I learned about people and myself. I wish more people could be given the chance and the incen- tive to join the organization as moviated as the Student Council. Petitioning as a freshman at-large representative was the smartest thing 1 could have done at the beginn- ing of my high school years. By doing so, I was able to come into contact with people of various backgrounds and grade levels. The thing 1 learned early was that responsibility makes a difference and that the right attitude brings on responsibility. Never before, and probably never again, will 1 be given the chance to experience leadership, pride, and a sense of happiness that Student Council gave me my senior year. The thing that made it complete, however, was the people I was given to work with, my officers and my council.

' C — ouncil participates Projects benefit school, community lb Service projects among other school or outside of school activities are important to the members of Student Council. Student Council has given me an insight to all of the work- ings and plannings of an organization, said Melissa Heinold, junior. I never realiz- ed how much work it was. All year they have been working hard to make the best of their activities for other and for themselves as well. Their service projects in- clude selling pep ribbons, spon- soring the Homecoming dance, sponsoring the Christmas card design contest, Christmas card delivery, Christmas caroling at the rest home, and were also a host for this year ' s fall conven- tion, which was a success. This year student council not only has its reguair at-large members, but its regular at- large members, but homeroom representatives elected by each first period class. This way, everyone is informed of what ' s going on in student council. Although student council is very active, it is also fun and very challenging, said Dehlia Ramos, junior.

OAL Athletes raise money for athletic events Girls ' Organized Athletic League involves ONLY girls in both basketball and track. During the year, G.O.A.L. has had many fund-raising activities such as bake sales, selling spirit pens, and working at the concession stand during the Toast of the Coast tour- nament, to buy equipment for their sport. I like working at the bake sales because it gives me a chance to meet new people who really sup- port the basketball team, said Karey Janak, sophomore. Top sales winners will be able to go to either the state track meet, or to the state basketball game at the end of the year. I try to sell a whole lot of the stuff we are issued so I can attend the state track meet or basketball game, said Grsula Johnson, sophomore.

I joined G.O.A.L. because it was a requirement for athletics. I have now grown to like it. Going through initiation was the most fun a person could have when joining a club. During the time of initiation, you dislike it. After your first year, you look back and think about how much fun you had. Being president of G.O.A.L. has changed me for the best. I have learned to be a leader. Leadership is impor- tant to me. Leadership is im- portant to have during your adulthood and I feel I am pretty well prepared.
