Warren High School - Echoes Yearbook (Warren, IL)

GETTING IT TOGETHER Getting It Together is the theme of this year's yearbook. The theme was chosen to represent the addition of 7th and 8th graders to the high school. This year, for the first time, yearbooks were distributed in the fall, instead of the spring. The reason was the school year could be put in one book instead of two. In the past, events which occured late in the school year, such as prom and track, had to be left out and added to the following yearbook. The yearbook staff this year was comparatively smaller than last year, but Mrs. Miller commented, “The size of the staff doesn't matter. What matters is how many of the staff are willing to work together to produce a good yearbook. People refer to their high school yearbooks throughout their lives and it's nice to look back into one you can be proud of. 14 Yearbook

PENS, PENCILS, PAPER SOLD Student Council, for the first time, sold pens, pencils, and paper at football games, Pumpkin Festival, and the student body. The machine was located outside Room 5 and helped pay for Homecoming, the band, and flowers. Student Council also had one bake sale. Student Council also started a point system. Members were given points for being active in Student Council projects. When asked, Mr. Nielsen stated, The point system was started for two reasons: It can point out the students who are really involved in nearly all the activities. It also can be used to show individuals if they aren't contributing to the Council's success. Mr. Nielsen commented: I am very appreciative of the effort given by some of the Student Council members. Their work is not publicized too often, but they make a good contribution for their school and classmates.
