S.A. Excels H arding Academy's Student Association has always been a service organization, serving both the students and the community. This year was but another example of this willingness to serve. After the first day of school the traditional mixer let students mingle and get to know one another in a more relaxed atmosphere. Featured were the S.A. rap, several teachers involved in a Jell-0 eating contest, and a rousing pep rally. October brought the fall retreat at Camp Tahkodah, which was a success despite dreary weather. Everyone had a chance to relax and escape the hectic pace of school. A week before Thanksgiving, a food drive was held. During the week students brought canned vegetables and meats .which were distributed to hungry families in time for Thanksgiving. A collection taken at the retreat and during chapel was used to pay some power bills for these families . During the weeks before Christmas vacation, the S.A. presented a program to remember and honor the citizens of Arkansas who are missing in Vietnam. Members of the executive council and class representatives decorated a sepcial Christmas tree with the names of the missing soldiers. The chorus sang and veterans and relatives of missing soldiers spoke to the student body. The S.A. executive council consisted of President Travis Bailey, Vice-President Kris Citty, and Secretary-Treasurer Jill Smith. Mr. James Anderson and Miss Linda Arnold served as sponsors. O S.A.
