worked hard to help others For a school to maintain its high standards in achievement, it must have students and groups who are willing to put forth the effort and organize projects. Page has this quality of stu¬ dents who guide their directive interests toward the assistance and improvement of various conditions. Taking the initiative upon them¬ selves, a group of students organized the Foreign Films Series to bring cul¬ tural art films to Page. Under the direction of Bruce Kappel and Stewart Rogers, the Peace Corps School-to- School Program was brought to Page, where $1,000 was collected and given to Governor Sanford in an impressive assembly. Other projects, such as the Beautification Committee, “Operation Santa Claus,” and the Red Cross book collection for veterans at Fort Bragg were undertaken by certain groups. In extending themselves beyond the required academic endeavors, these students exemplified their leadership and encouraged other students to ac¬ cept worthwhile projects. Debbie White and John Brantley count votes for the mock election held by the Current Affairs class to promote citizenship among Page students. Bruce Kappel, Stewart Rogers, Christine Wag¬ goner, David Gipson, Martha Arnold, and Franpois Chapireau socialize before homeroom period. Ann Bryant and Bruce Kappel, Beautification Committee chairman, show their school spirit by helping to keep the grounds clean.
