Landmark students attend conference SFHS students win at State Fair The student council and journalism students from Landmark High School attended the 8th Annual Leadership Conference, entitled "Making your Mark." The Conference is sponsored annually by Utah Valley State College and the Center for the Advancement of Leadership. The conference was very informative for the students, with speakers including Hyrum Smith, CEO of Franklin Covey; Chad Lewis, former profootball player; and Utah's First Lady Mary Kaye Huntsman. Smith spoke about what it takes to be a great leader. He emphasized how our vocabulary effects those we work with and even our own ability to function in life. "You can only think as deep as your vocabulary will allow you to," he said. He also talked about the need for leaders to be determined in all that they do. Chad Lewis spoke about the importance of making a difference in the way you treat others. He also said that good leaders need to have confidence in themselves. This confidence will influence others in the way they behave in a position of leadership. The students also had the • opportunity to attend some breakout sessions and learn more about how to be an effective leader. This was also a great opportunity to learn from other student councils and leaders from other schools. This conference has been recognized by the President of the United • States, members of Congress and other organizations as a way to prepare the youth of today to be leaders of the future.

Courtesy photo Students raising money for a dragon sculpture Brian Davenport LANDMARK Landmark High School kicked off a fund-raiser to raise funds for the Dragon Sculpture that will hang in the front entry way of the "new" Landmark High School, which is currently under construction. The Dragon Sculpture will be 9 feet wide, by 9 feet long and will hang from the ceiling of the new school building, which should be finished this spring. When Principal Joe Kelly announced the fundraiser to the student body of LHS, the students started donating money right away. An anonymous donor also gave funds toward the sculpture. Since the announcement on Tuesday, Oct. 23, 2007 we haVe raised $1,100. We need $3,000 for the sculpture. The dragon sculpture was created by a former student, Paul Bawden, who graduated from LHS in 2006 and is currently serving in the U.S. Marines. Paul spent many hours in the creation of the sculpture and donated the sculpture to the student body of LHS.
