DAR increases preparations for Awards Assembly
DAR today increased its preparations for the Annual Awards Assembly, which is to be held on May 20. Nearly all of DAR’s Saturday classes assigned Assembly preparation as part of their weekly homework, and school teachers worked quickly and efficiently to prepare their classes for the event.
An example of the urgency is clear on Ms. Samia’s homework assignments page, where the DARSC has opened a “Awards Center.” The Center contains detailed information about presentation assignments and Graduation updates, and may also contain news concerning planned DARSC activities. After all, most of Ms. Samia’s class consists of current Council members.

DARSC appoints Assembly representative
The DAR Student Council today appointed a representative to the DAR Awards Assembly. The representative – who remains unnamed – will be giving a short speech at the Assembly to commemorate the Council’s past progress before outlining its plan for the future.
2012 is to be the first year in which a Student Council member speaks at the DAR Awards Assembly, and it will also be the first in which three Student Councils meet to discuss future plans.
Following the success of the DAR Saturday Student Council, several other branches of DAR chose to begin similar organizations. While members of two Councils met in 2011, this will be the first in which three meet to discuss future cooperation between the student organizations.
DARSC announces upcoming newsletter
The DARSC today announced that it will release the first issue of a periodic newsletter on April 7. The newsletter will contain data about school events, as well as other interesting information.
The newsletter will cost 25¢, according to the Council’s Vice President 1, who broke the news Sunday. That amount may change, although it is unlikely.
The news comes as the Council attempts to encourage new forms of communication between the school and its students and parents. These attempts include the creation of a website and a Twitter account, and are expected to continue to grow.
