On Friday, March 6, Dawes Student Council held their annual dance with the theme, red carpet event. This dance was held in the gym right after school and had many decorations to help emphasize the theme. But the dance would not have been successful without the student council advisor, Ms. Essex, IPOD, and the Dawes CLC staff.

When I interviewed Kate Tadesse, the vice-president, she said that the dance was a ‘major success’ resulting with $957.40 in student council’s account. Kate also said that the theme could have been executed more or we could have chosen a theme that would have been more to the ‘student body’s liking.’ She wrapped up by saying it was a great dance, that sold all the concessions, and the students looked as if they had a blast.

I also took the time to interview Shaleija Hunter, an eighth grader. She says it was ‘okay’ because it was to spaced out and hot. But, she also thought it was fun and enjoyable besides the fact. ‘Overall, it was a great dance.’

So, according to some other sources and these, the dance was a success with only minor flaws that student council is sure to work on for next year.
