Student Council
While I was in Student Council I had a great time. We did a lot of activites like the Sock Hop, Easter Egg Hunt, T -Shirt Day, and food drive. I really enjoyed it. It felt good to be one of the leaders in school. Student Council was for well behaved students. I enjoyed the election when we had to dress up and say our speech on the stage. The Sock Hop and the Easter Egg Hunt was both in the gym. I enjoyed the both of them. The Easter Egg Hunt was for CD and Kindergarten only, I enjoyed helping them. The Sock Hop was fun. We did a soul train line and played music. T -Shirt day was when every one had to wear their favorite T -Shirt. Keisha was an okay President. Ricky was alright at being a Vice President too, because they was kind of in and out of trouble some times. I'm really going to miss Student Council and how much fun we had. Some times we got to eat dominoes with Dr .Lane Ms. Shannon or Mrs. Williams. I had dominoes with Mrs. Williams. Mrs. Williams asked us questions like what would you do to make this school a better place. I will be sad to leave Hyatt Parks Student Council. I will never for get that group. I thought that Natalie was a very good secretary and Benjamin was a very good vice secretary .I had such a great time in Student Council that I just don't want to leave.
