Student Council held a monthly meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 3 during PRIDE Time in the Lecture Hall.

During the meeting, the advisors and officers discussed Homecoming and had a survey that asked about the quality of Homecoming and how it could be improved, and then asked for potential ideas for Indian Call and the next Homecoming.

They also conversed about upcoming events, such as the blood drive, Pack the Pantry, Toys for Tots and Indian Call.

The StuCo-sponsored blood drive occurs in Gym B from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 9.

Pack the Pantry is an event on Saturday, Nov. 13 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. for which StuCo is partnering with NHS students and can be used for community service hours. Students will go around local neighborhoods to collect non-perishable foods that can be donated to the Community Service Center to help families in need.

Toys for Tots is an event that is going to be a competition between PRIDE Times and also between Hays High and Thomas More Prep that will take place Nov. 29 through Dec. 3. It will be the collection of new unopened toys that can be donated and given to children and families in need.

“The meeting went well,” StuCo sponsor Jayme Goetz said. “We got some really good feedback on Homecoming, and I think we’re going to make some good adjustments for Indian all.”
