School Council Minutes – October 24

 

Recorded by: Stoogles, Vice President

Re: Emergency Meeting of School Council

Called by: Salley Cat, President

In attendance: Salley Cat (see above), Stoogles, Vice-president and Purr-cilla, Treasurer

Salley Cat called an emergency meeting to announce to the members of the school council some very disturbing news. Today Salley went to Ms. Cowoline’s office to ask her about the planned route for this year’s Halloween parade in which all the students dress in their costumes and march through the school.

Ms. Cowoline told Salley that she had decided that because we spend so much time last month working on the play we’re behind in our studies, so Ms. Cowoline has decided to do away with the parade this year. Apparently it will take up too much of our valuable learning time.

Salley told Ms. Cowoline that she couldn’t do that and when Ms. Cowoline asked why not, Salley apparently responded that – and I quote – “Well, she just couldn’t.” Ms. Cowoline said that “just couldn’t” is not a valid reason to hold the parade and that there is a lot of material that we still need to get through in class. Then Ms. Cowoline said that unless Salley Cat came up with a very persuasive argument to have the parade, the subject was closed and sent Salley back to class.

Which brings us to our meeting.

Purr-cilla pointed out that Salley’s response to Ms. Cowoline was ‘totally lame’ and if we want to get Ms. Cowoline to change her mind, she would have to do better than that.  (I have to say – I kind of agree with Purr-cilla on this one. Oops – can I erase this? Uh oh.)

So Salley closed the meeting by announcing that we would reconvene tomorrow and share our ideas.

    Go for it, Salley! You can do it, SuperCatGirl!

    Purr-Cilla’s right. Salley has a lot of guts. And anyway, what’s the point?

    halloween parades are uberrific! i don’t see why they can’t have it. my school has intergremission, or whatever they call it,
    where we go to different classes to do certain activities. when i was in gr1, i ended up eating the halloween jellybeans,
    (orange, black, green, purple) instead of paying attention to halloween’s history and how the colors came to be!
    but my school deosn’t have parades. after all, that’s kindergarten stuff!

    I think Stoogles is right… But of course, he IS siding with Purr-Cilla, which COULD make things a little shaky between him and Salley. (They are best friends) I wonder what will happen… YOU CAN’T BREAK TRADITION MS. COWALINE!!!!!

    Hee hee hee… :blush: :grin:

    Purr-cilla is right. That’s not a good way to convince Ms. Cowaline! Maybe tell her how you feel about the parade, and explain that it is a tradition, and without it, Halloween won’t be the same.
    Good luck, Salley Cat!
