Student Editorial As for audience reaction to the results it was less than popular. The general impression on the students minds was that of general boredom and most seemed to disbelieve that this relatively relatively similar student's council for next year as compared compared to this year would be able to bring any sort of spice and student body enthusiasm enthusiasm for the following school year. This school year was definitely definitely a dull one with very low turn-outs for student council dances and low participation participation involved with spirit spirit weeks. The school's lack of spirit according to several students seemed to stem from a lack "of *, variety amongst student council members and this didn't appeal appeal to many of the students. students. This was also very apparent apparent at the beginning of the election assemblies when the student council prime minister Jonathan Goad welcomed the students to the 1989-90 student council elections with very little appreciation appreciation or applause, therefore prompting Jonathan Jonathan Goad to repeat himself with an even smaller response. response. B.H.S. students were definitely displeased last year when there began to be more people filling spots through acclamation then election and this began to turn the students off from school spirit. The only other events scheduled for the remainder remainder of this year involve an upcoming school dance on May 12tn and a spring assembly. Whether these events are pulled off remains remains to be seen. Fond wishes are extended to next year's student council council members in hope that they can muster up some sort of school spirit and come up with some original events to do at the school instead instead of the same, run-of- the-mill events which occurred occurred throughout this year. Next week's article will contain pictures from the extravaganza extravaganza of the year, 'Dancemakers' and the Cooperative Cooperative Education Employer Employer Appreciation Breakfast Breakfast which occurred yesterday. yesterday.
