<br />IV. Hillcrest High School Student Council Presentation
<br />Mr. McLaren thanked the student council and Mrs. Crabtree. The kids have done a lot. Mrs. Crabtree does a great job of drawing the line between giving
<br />direction and allowing them to lead. Tyler Wyman is a great studentbody president. The student council is phenomenal and the cream of the crop. They
<br />support each other and came together this year. Tyler had a presentation showing activities throughout the year. During their retreat they tried to envision
<br />this time then. They used each name on council once during treat time. Their mission statement is: “Through friendly example we create confidence,
<br />confidence creates unity, unity creates passion, passion is our purpose”.
<br />
<br />They won first place for their float entry in the Fourth of July parade. They painted the trailers to make them look better. Freshman day was only freshman
<br />so they could get used to the halls and the schedule. It was nice to meet the freshman. They sponsored a Senior Sunrise the first day of school. Chick-fil-A
<br />catered the breakfast. They will then have a Senior Sunset on the last day of school. The Civil War week was awesome with a pep rally, tailgate party,
<br />smashed the bee car, window painting, and got everyone involved to help create unity. Homecoming was held at the Shilo Inn. During homecoming week,
<br />they had a parade, tire activity, and gauntlet class competition for the purpose of getting the kids involved and unifying classes. They got kids involved in
<br />the dress-up day using different methods.
<br />
<br />McKenzie Ward talked about the Homecoming Royalty. They surprised the winners and videotaped their response. There were two special needs girls
<br />elected as senior class queen. Sarah Pickett talked about the Powder Puff football game. More girls attended this year than other years. The seniors won.
<br />They tried to make Homecoming a full school thing this year.
<br />
<br />Brittney Crank talked about the Senior Rock. They just got it last year. They placed their hand prints on the rock with white paint. Christian Stahn reported
<br />on the regional conference. It was held at the Shilo. His takeaway was, “If you put your mind to something you can do it.” We have proved that the
<br />impossible is really possible. Sara Oseen- talked about Sadie Hawkins. It was held at the Navy Gym. The student council sponsored a No Shave
<br />November Contest. People with the fullest beard would get their picture on the wall of fame. Teachers were also involved. This activity created unity with
<br />the students and the faculty.
<br />
<br />They also sponsored a New Student Luncheon. The smile committee sent out 120 invitations and met with 100 kids. It was fun to get to know them and
<br />welcome them to the school. All activities are centered on unifying the school. They earned $5,000 and helped 200 children through the Adopt – a Family
<br />activity. They pulled an all-nighter to wrap gifts and then delivered them they next morning. During Christmas Week they had an ugly sweater contest,
<br />lunch activities, and decorating the school. In January, they participated in a #STAG dance with Bonneville. It was an awesome big dance.
<br />
<br />They sponsored 007 activities with the special needs kids in the school. They made snowflakes and helped decorate the school. They made heart cookies
<br />in February and had an Easter egg hunt with them in April. The hope is to help them feel more a part of the school. These activities help the special needs
<br />kids as well as the student council members.
<br />
<br />Weston Hobbs talked about the Exchange Students. They love being here in America. They had a pizza luncheon and enjoyed talking to each other.
<br />“Pizza and foreigns are his two favorite things. This activity helped build confidence in these students.
<br />
<br />In February there was the sweethearts dance. Kiley Nelson reported on this activity. Hollywood was the theme. They had a red carpet and a Marilyn
<br />Monroe replica. They had everything done before it happened with student council.
