I just got back from Hawaii, and I'm currently working on an article about Student Council. Since I'm the class representative, and I missed the first day of school, I was chosen to elaborate on the subject. I honestly do not know what to write about.
StuCo is currently undergoing some decision-making regarding when we should have our Prance (it's like a Prom, but different because the whole high school is invited). StuCo is thinking of holding Prance in April. The funny thing about our Prance is that students are strictly advised to be picked up, or to drive home before or at exactly ten o'clock in the evening. The reason for this firm and rigid time schedule is that almost every year after Prance, teachers have to stay behind and wait for hours for parents to pick up their children. The penalty now for whoever fails to hitch a ride home bafore ten o'clock is banned from attending the next Prance.
The SAT and ACT testing dates interfere with StuCo's event dates. Since Friday evenings are the most convenient times to hold events such as dances, StuCo proposes more activities to be done then. Unfortunately, Saturday mornings are when the standardized testing begins, and students must obtain a decent amount of sleep, and have time to prepare materials the night before. Because of this, StuCo is forced to withdraw their proposals for the time being.
StuCo is planning on having a dance and maybe another event during the months of February and March, however. Fundraising for the Prance is one of StuCo's top priorities, so, along with the daily snack sales in Mr. Tessen's room, StuCo will hold more events to raise money very soon.
