Given at the Home- coming Assembly by the SCOT-Highlanders, the award is for outstanding dedication to student ac- tivities. During the eight years of sponsorship, the Club entered a decorat- ed car in the Homecom- ing Parade and won first place seven times. In addition the mem- bers sold Gummi Bears and chocolate Advent calendars each year. We took the advice of Mrs. Hodson and sold Gummi Bears before they became popular stated Henry Treftz sen- or. On Dec I Mrs rlodson resigned from her teach- mg position and ended a 20-year career Mrs rlodson was a great teacher. Im sure all of the people who knew her will miss her, comment- ed Corey Blank, sopho- more. Leaving behind the stacks of papers to grade and the long days was easy to do. However, I will miss all of the stu- dents and the teachers I work with. This was a wonderful school to work at, and the facilities were super, she said. Miss Dorelle Ackennann - Science: B.S.
