 * -Student Council ran a contest throughout the school – preschool through high school – **
 * to collect pop tabs. The winning elementary classroom won a pizza party, and **
 * the winning jr. high/high school classroom won the right to go first to lunch for one **
 * full week. The pop tabs were then taken to the Ronald McDonald House in Sioux Falls. **
 * the members walked the ditch and cleaned up all of the garbage. **
 * -Just before Christmas, student council put up a Christmas Tree in the main hallway of **
 * our school. We advertised in the community and school, and community members **
 * donated new and used hats, mittens, scarves, snowsuits, boots, and other winter **
 * clothing. All the clothing was given to needy students in our school. **
 * -Before Christmas, the student council held a contest for the elementary school. The **
 * classroom that could build the biggest ‘Christmas Tree’ out of non-perishable food **
 * items won root beer floats. We also held a food drive for the jr. high and high school. **
 * Anyone bringing in at least one non-perishable food items was given a pass and the right **
 * to wear a hat to school for the day. Before all food was collected, student council members **
 * had a “non-perishable scavenger hunt” to collect food from throughout the community. **
 * -Student council continued work on a corner of the library dedicated to a teacher who passed away from cancer. Students painted quotes from this teacher on the walls. **
 * -Student council members serve as members of our community Horizons Project. These members serve as representatives from our council, and act as liasons between our council and this group. **
