Miss Pcrc Goes To Washington Washington D.C. is a long way from Weehawken. but Milagros Perez, a member of the Student Council, found herself there for a week during March. During her stay Maggie, as she likes to be called, rubbed shoulders with senators, diplomats, representa- tives and FBI and CIA agents and attended classes in government operations and civic responsibility conducted by some of them. Maggie had to meet certain requirements in order to go. The student chosen to represent Weehawken had to have an average higher than 2.5, had to demonstrate leadership ability and had to submit an essay explaining the importance of the trip and describing how it could help in future years. Maggie fulfilled all these requir- ements easily. She also had to be interviewed by members of the administration and guidance department, student council adviser Tom Russo, history teacher Neil Reardon and by members of the board of education. They all agreed that Maggie was indeed well qualified and selected her as the school representatives. Maggie felt that the trip was a wonderful and helpful experience - she hopes to someday work as a diplomat or in a post in the state department. And who knows - someday we might be blaming Milagros Perez for our tax increases ■ Lee - Ann Behrens Roberta Blake Odalys Chavez Iris Benitez Iraklis Bourinaris Carmela Cifarelli 28 Seniors
