Thank you for all of the wonderful applications for Student Council.  Due to size limits only a few students can be chosen for participation.  The Student Council for the 2011-2012 has been chosen.  If you are part of the Student Council team you should have received an invitation to the Student Council meeting on September 29 at 7:00AM in room 109.  There will be donuts and juice provided.  Teachers will also receive a list of the student council representatives in an e-mail.  See you then.
