The Crestview Middle School Student Council is composed of one elected student per homeroom. Each representative must meet specific academic and conduct requirements. Students participate in many projects that benefit the school and the community. Some of this year's projects include:

• Raising thousands of dollars for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

• Honor teachers during American Education Week and Teacher Appreciation Week

• Singing Christmas carols at Covington Manor Nursing Home and the Adult Developmental Center

• Collecting and distributing food and supplies for the needy at Thanksgiving and Christmas

A year-end trip is planned as a reward for all the students' hard work. The Student Council will travel to St. Louis in May and visit the St Louis Arch, Six Flags, and attend a Cardinals baseball game.

Past projects include donating red velvet curtains for the stage in the cafeteria, the PA system in the gym, red floor mats for the school entrance, and the white wrought iron furniture in the courtyards.

The Student Council

Students, bring in can goods for the Student Council can drive this week. The can goods will be donated to the Junior Auxiliary to make Thanksgiving baskets for local needy families. This is a great opportunity for CMS to help out our community. Also, the class who collects the most can goods wins a PIZZA PARTY!! ~~ Ms. Fuqua
