Sorry I haven't updated in a while, it just slipped my mind.
On the 13th we discussed the things we want to do in the next few months, mainly fundraisers so that we can get money for a field trip. One of the ideas we threw around was face painting for Cominghome spirit week.
Well on the 20th, I sent an email out to Mr. Anderson to get his opinion and possibly, approval. I met with him the next day and it's a go! He only said that we wouldn't be able to paint entire faces, just do simple little things, but of course I wasn't expecting to do something crazy. So next meeting, which will be after finals, we'll finish decorating the bulletin board to advertise it and start choosing different designs to paint on faces. Student Activities will probably decide on spirit week themes so we'll be all set. The two weeks after we'll train people to make the designs and sign up for lunches. I'm assuming we'll need a decent amount of people for the lunches so that more than one or two people can get their faces painted at a time. Also, how much does everyone think that we should charge?
On another note, Dani has been organizing the mural committee and things will get rolling on that soon. From what I hear we're just waiting on the teachers to get paint.
The shadow boxes have started to take shape. Dan, Tejas, and Brandon (if I left anyone out, I'm sorry!) have done some good work so far. Right now it's still mostly a plan, but more will be developing soon.
A final note, though it may seem far off still, we need to plan for the Easter egg sale. Specifically, how we will go about making them this year, buying supplies, and organizing days to construct them. We'll have to discuss the kind of candy(ies) to put inside of them too because buying a lot of different kinds was kind of expensive last year, but I'm not sure if we want to be so boring as to only give out jelly beans or something equally as uncool. So start thinking about that kind of stuff.
Oh, p.s. we need to talk about the when-where-how of an induction ceremony now that we have all of our official members in place.
Okey dokey then. See you after finals!
