STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is made up of three students from each high school class, one being the class president. These students are voted in by their classmates. This year the Student Council gave joint dances with Central Catholic to help make money for the Swimming Pool Fund to help finance a new pool for the town. They also set up a suggestion box for the students and set up the Aca- demic Letter System for students with a 93% average for their first three years of high school. They helped plan the post prom party with the Cuming County Drug Awareness Committee. At the end of the year, the Stu- dent Council was in the process of getting the school board to approve the addition of vending machines with nutritious snacks and juices for the commons.

WEST POINTER The West Pointer staff had a very productive and profitable year. This was the first year the West Pointer was allowed to sell ads. The $390.75 raised from these ads helped finance the paper. Producing a paper can be a very hectic job. Subjects must be chosen and assigned; stories must be writ- ten; pictures must be taken. Lastly, the final product is brought to Quality Printing where last minute proofreading is done and the paper is printed. Many out-of-school hours are spent working on the pa- per and getting it ready for publica- tion. The work may be hard and the hours may be long, but when the paper is finally completed, every- one on the staff feels a great sense of accomplishment. ABOVE: Sleeping on the job again? Anne Scherer helps put together the paper. TOP RIGHT: Surprise guys! Karen Scheer, Mary Groth, David Jindra, and Mrs. Mahannah work on the West Pointer. 1st Row: Cathy Tibbels, Reporter Feature Editor; David Jindra, Entertainment Editor; Lou Buse, Editor; Donna Ernesti, Entertain- ment Editor. 2nd Row: Kim Lofgren, Front Page Editor Reporter; Karen Scheer, Mana- ging Ad Editor; Anne Scherer, Feature Edi- tor; Mary Groth, Front Page Editor Sports Editor; Todd Schroeder, Sports Editor. 10 Organizations
