CLUBS and ORGANIZATIONS Breaking Out Of The Routine Year after year the hallways clear in one mad dash at 2:00 pm, only to be repopulated by those who made Ypsi their sec- ond home: those hundreds of students who spend long hours in Ypsi‘s many clubs and organizations. “I've met a lot of interesting people in after school activities. We've worked hard hours, but it’s worth it because we have a lot of fun,’’ says senior Rhonda Blanton, newspaper, yearbook and student council member. Whether it’s laying out a year- book page, performing in a play, checking out an ancestor, writ- ing a newspaper article or build- ing arace car, you'll find a group of potential friends waiting in one of Ypsi’s twenty activities and clubs. tena | — — a - ———— — ee oe pak ane - 3 a a — ae. $ = eer “ - ane — ® - ° amt ow, - — - ar , ee — Pte —. | - “ — = an « - a

BOARD OF hn Imagine yourself enter- ing the white house. You follow a hallway leading to a door at the end. A con- tinuous mumble of voices comes from behind the door. As you open it and step down into the room, you see several rows of folding chairs filled with people talking among themselves. As you take a seat, the talking stops. A group of about fourteen people enter. They take their seats at the front and the meeting begins. Although this scene could be describing a meeting at the White House, it is in actuality de- scribing a typical meeting of the Ypsilanti Board of Education located in its administration building. In the past several years, the school board too, has broken away from the nor- mal system in order to im- prove and benefit the school district. One new addition is the viewpoint of the student body through student representation. These representatives at- tend each board meeting and are given time to speak in the monthly study Breaking into the Future sessions. Along with the study ses- sions, the board also at- tended a retreat at East- ern Michigan University where they set goals for the district and created an agenda for upcoming meetings at their planning sessions. Over the years, their planning has resulted in programs that have be- come so successful that they have received na- tionwide recognition. The opening of Perry School is an example of one of the most successful programs established through the school board. A more re- cent program, aimed to- ward the younger students in the district, is the Youth Care Program created to promote after school safety. With their dedication to the maintenance of pro- gram quality and their con- cern for the welfare of each and every school child in the district, it is no wonder that Ypsilanti’s School Board has made breaking into the future one of their many goals.
