Keysha Tisdom checks out HENCO products from Mrs Lois Kuykendall, sponsor. HENCO products were sold to raise money for the annual convention which was held at Arlington I have been in Future Teachers of America for four years. I enjoy FTA, not because I get to go to the state convention, but because I want to become a teacher in the future. I love being around little children. I want to major in Elementary Education in order to become a third grade teacher. Being in FTA shows me the value of teaching. I hope to fur- ther my education and pass it on to others. Jr. FT.

TA students today, teachers tomorrow The Future Teachers have been very active. They held many fund-raisers, including a candy sale, a Mexican Dinner and a Henco products sale. Community service plays an important role in the club. They used their skills in tutoring at the Adult Learning Center. The club members enjoyed the op- portunity to experience teaching individuals and the class as a whole. Three members served as of- ficers on the district level, Sherry Tillmon, Nicole Mathis and Shay Kuykendall. Sherry Tillmon was elected District Recording Secretary for 1987- 88 at the District Convention. Stroman hosted the convention in November. FTA is an exciting club, said Sharon Whitby, senior. You really learn to work for something you want — which is attending the state convention. Jr. F.T.A. officers: Bottom, Tracie Gant, financial secretary; Evette Sut- ton, vice president. Top.

cience Club Jets explore scientific interests Science Club Jets were very busy this year participating in school and community service projects, such as working in the concession stands during the basketball games, collecting food for the Thanksgiving food drive, donating blood and adop- ting an animal from the Texas Zoo. It was really neat getting to adopt an animal, said Shelby Leita, junior. Not only did we get something extra for our club, we also made a better name for our club, she added. I liked working in the con- cession stands, said Michael Yates, senior. It gave me a lit- tle time to get away from my homework, he added. Club meetings were held on activity day, although some after scool meetings were held. Even though our club was a little small, we still had a lot of fun, said Michelle Mitscherl- ing, senior. My advice to peo- ple who are looking for a fun and interesting club is Science Club is for you, she added. I ' ve been in Science Club Jets for two years. Even though I ' m not enrolled in a science class this year, the club allows me to further expand my knowledge of science. Science club also gives students the opportunity to examine dif- ferent careers dealing with science by taking filed trips. Over all, I feel that Science club can be rewar- ding to many people of varied interests.
