1984 REMEMBRANCE — Algonac High School 5200 Taft Rd. Algonac, Michigan 48001 Volume 62 Since May, 1983, education has been a controversial subject. The Presidential Commission cited concerns with school systems nationwide. According to this committee, recommendations would include: more advanced courses, stressing the basics, requiring more homework and raising the number of mandatory days to 200. Debate continues in all areas. In each community, schools began to self evaluate and look to the future. In each district, the “back to basics” movement brought about changes in courses and requirements. In Michigan, the last four years, were times of cutbacks with reductions in state aid and millage failures. To meet technological changes and stay within the budget brought about many administrative challenges. Realistic training in Office Practice perfects Collette Carrier’s skills for the business world. Designing a program and getting it to run provide many challenges for novice programmers: Tina Hurlburt, Joe Way, DuWayne Arneil, Randy Baker, Dawn Shawen, Amy Rosso and Charlotte Kasperowicz. “We felt the trend of the country was toward more math and science. We’re heading back Mr. Joseph Caimi, Superintendent toward core curriculums — the basics.” Times Herald, July 24, 1983 Unpleasant side effects from the combination of copper and sulfur kept Chemistry student Debbie Granica holding her breath while completing the experiment. Keeping debits and credits balanced keeps erasers busy for Accounting I students: Eric Norman, Angie Meldrum, Laury Prior, Cheryl Troutman, Tammy Nielson, Melanie Furtah, Matt Woods, Mark McGeachy, Ryan Weber and Dawn Wanket. As tribute to the Marines killed in the Beirut bombing on October 23, flags flew nationwide at half mast. During the week following the bombing, flags at the high school stood as a silent reminder.

Geometrical dimensions take on a touch of reality with Mr. Rochon’s visual aids. During the monthof September, 10th graders statewide take the Assessment test. Bev Okum works on the metric section of the math test. 4 Computer literacy is a key skill for everyone. Advanced computer students, Rob Tucker, Ralph Krause and Matt Pritchard prepare their programs to run. Utilizing watercolors, Lori Stoll creates a peaceful scenic design. With a classroom of their own, Room 134, Rainbow Connection uses their second hour class to prepare for performances. “I took College Composition to prepare me for college. The class is run exactly like a college course will be.” Ellen Schmidt, ’84 Introduction 5 “We spent days working on schedule changes this year. Students were trying to upgrade themselves by taking harder courses.” Mr. Robert Ford Principal Technology continues to challenge the focus of education today. Beginning with the class of ’86, students at Algonac High School must now take two years of math and two years of science in addition to their other graduation requirements. The changes join a strong curriculum of English, social studies and related areas to prepare students for future goals. The basics are leading one step beyond . . . Room 116 has become a computer lab with a word processor as the latest addition. Advanced Accounting students run their own store and students continue to fill the advanced science and math classes. Business students have the opportunity to work in a model office and college bound work to prepare for the demands of college life with College Composition. Within the district, a committee was formed in November to study educational needs. The continuing concern of meeting the needs of all individuals is a key concentration of all school personnel. and Beyond Back to Basics Student Life Spirit is NOT dead. Student activities kept everyone interested in being part of AHS today. Spirit week in November transformed the school into a beach party and then into theme halls and dress. Groups continue to take their spirit beyond and put AHS on the map. Again the band proved that they are the best in the Blue Water area with a “1” from Michigan Band and Orchestra Association Competition. REMEMBRANCE staff members brought home a first place in yearbook competition from GLIPA in Ohio. Fans cheered team members on . . . watching the first girls’ Cross Country team to qualify for the state meet. Fans cheered each play at all sporting eve nts giving example to the fact that spirit is not dead. Bureaucratic paperwork is an important tool for military personnel.

Sticky fingers from corrections are a major part of the Monday paste ups. Staff members Debbie Knowlton, Ed Bernardi and Bill Hogsett work to perfect the RAT REVIEW. 1:30 and tired students head for the bus and their cars to begin the trek home. and Beyond “Spirit week was very hectic. We did different activities this year. Student Council is an active group that wants to be involved. Diane Soulliere, ’84 Student Council President Student Life Division 7 Living near the St. Clair River enables Donna Stepp, Kathy Watson and Michelle Vanover to appreciate the constant flow of river traffic. With the school day over at 1:30, Jay Stager and Clinton Viger head out for an afternoon of fishing. In the new downtown area, Dennis White, Nanette Johnson, Eric Parent and Camille Dedmon use the park benches to socialize. At the same time, Dawn Wanket, Amy Bagwell, Kim Fiorani and Cindy Lamb watch the river with the fountain as a background. 8 Scenic Beauty Surrounds Living on the water provides daily experience with scenic beauty. Cities that date back to the early history of the area are found all along the river. So often, landmarks and beauty are taken for granted. People drive for miles for a weekend spot at the State Park to view the St. Clair River. The Colony Tower and St. John’s Marsh are part of the tourist sights on the scenic M-29. Downtown Algonac is changing with the riverfront park, the sculpture, the fountain and the boardwalk. Yet to each resident, international freighters, spectacular sunrises and dynamic fall days are a part of daily existence. City and country living provides the best of both worlds.

Laughs, Crazy Antics and Fun Motivate Sales Campaign Attempting to create enthusiasm for the ’84 book, REMEM- BRANCE staff members sponsored their second annual yearbook assembly to a sell out crowd. During the course of the assembly, the classes competed for points. The outcome was quite close with the Seniors and Juniors tied for first, Sophomores second and Freshmen third. All of the classes got involved and everyone showed spirit to cheer their class. One of the most exciting events was the tug of war with the Juniors taking on and defeating all challengers. Another highlight of the assembly was the tricycle race which helped show that high school students are also kids at heart. The crowd roared with laughter as one member from each class rode a IY 2 foot high tricycle in a figure eight obstacle course. The winning time was 48 seconds by Debbie Drummond for the sophomores. Time flew by during the hour and the following day, yearbook orders resulted in another successful sales campaign. “I thought the yearbook assembly was one of the better ones because everyone got involved.” (Pattie Kenny) Sheri Gulette announces the names of the next contestants, while Kim Gontarek and Gia Leon prepare to draw the next set of names. Bill Hogsett pedals the seniors to the finish line negotiating the course skillfully. 10 Junior muscle men defeated all challengers.

Parade Sparks Community Enthusiasm After a three year absence, the Homecoming parade made a grand reappearance. This parade included floats from classes, school groups and the community. People lined the streets to cap- ture the Homecoming spirit. On Friday, November 4, a pep rally was held with the classes competing for points for the Spirit Jug. With tremendous com- petition and enthusiastic participants and spectators, the Seniors won the rally and ultimately the coveted Spirit Jug. 12 ROCKY kept all the Sophomores competing and aiming for the top awards. Chorus captured the movie theme to add a colorful entry to the school group competition. Homecoming begins with the announcement of the court. The class of ’84 cheers on their choices for the court and begins to build points for the Spirit Jug. Spirit Week 13 Standing up to be counted for the Spirit Jug, Juniors, Kim Spears, Donna Browarski, Dave Petit and Tracie Albert take time away from History. Adrienne Quenneville displays her healing powers. 14 Spirit Builders Transform Halls, Classes Another predictable Spirit Week? No way! Spirit Week ’83 brought about pressure — the kind of pressure that can only be described as crazy and fun. Float parties began slowly as gab fests but by the time Monday, October 31 arrived each class worked overtime to finish the float. Each class had to transform their hall to match their theme between 1:30 and 8 p.m. on Wednesday, November 2. Throughout the afternoon, the halls came alive with flowers, streamers and posters. Judging was scheduled for 7:30 Thursday morning. As a precaution, the Juniors came in at 6 a.m. to make sure that their carefully constructed camouflage ceiling was intact. The combination of humidity and heavy paper caused the decorations to collapse and Juniors frantically tried to piece the ceiling back together. Theme dress up day was Thursday and visitors from the medical profession filled Senior classes, while army personnel were found in Junior halls. ROCKY filled the Sophomore corridor, while Freshmen from GREASE returned to the ’50’s. The finale was Friday with the annual Mum delivery and the balloon sale. The helium tank quickly emptied with people still wanting balloons. Daytona Beach or a November day in Algonac? Hard to tell for beach bums Shelley Kuplerski and Kim Stokes. Capturing that Hawaiian spirit, Jim Lipps watches the beach ball competition. Visiting medical professionals, Ken Taylor and Roger Bernabo add their expertise to complete the Physics experiment. Transforming a hall for the first time into a Spirit Week extravaganza isn’t as easy as Greg Kuypers, Dennis Federoff, Sean Sullivan, Tom Sparger, Joe Calcaterra and Jennifer Rose anticipated. Spirit Week 15 Tears and triumph highlight Homecoming Scheduling difficulties including a large number of away games in October to the switch off of daylight savings time affecting the last game, caused Homecoming to be scheduled for Saturday, November 5. This change found a difference in traditional things — the pep rally was Friday, the parade right before the game and dance Saturday night. The day’s outcome was excellent. Rats triumphed over New Haven 21-14. Though cold and gray, Homecoming ’83 turned out to be very memorable for eight ecstatic girls. Senior, Sue Anderson, was named Queen. “1 was really happy to receive such an honor, but I was also sad because my Dad couldn’t be there to share it with me. It’s a moment I’ll never forget.” During school, spirit week competition was strong, but senior spirit showed through with the class of ’83 taking the spirit jug. With all of the festivities, parent’s afternoon was also included. All in all, the excitement was felt throughout the town. As her name is announced. Sue Anderson and escort Devon Hinkle react in shock and surprise. School Board members, Mr. Robert Vervinck and Mrs. Sue Baxter announce the winners of the Spirit Jug — Class of ’84. Homecoming Court: Debbie Gontarek, Todd Yonaka, Kit Raymond, Jim Maniaci, Leslie Bieke, George Cani, Jodi Moravcik, Rory Jacobs, Sue Anderson, Devon Hinkle, Gina Greene, John Brenner, Krista Sudberry, Tim Blanck, Amy Sadlowski and Dan Beals. 17 Preparing a hall took much more time than freshmen anticipated. Julie Kwasiborski and Cathy Schmidt create hall banners on November 2. Mr. Muskrat struts his stuff at the Homecoming parade. Charlene Quenneville and Judy Wenckovsky spent the day looking for the dyke on twin day. Karen Dodge, Scott Freeman, Scott King and Michelle Ellis enjoy the slow tunes at the Homecoming dance. ROCKY comes alive through the sophomore float. Andy Petrovich, A. J. Hopkins, and Leonard Pascoe illustrate the theme while the parade passes the largest crowds by the shopping center. 18 Wild and crazy week culminates with parade Different activities — a re-surge of spirit and a super involved school all describe Spirit Week ’83. With the school transformed on dress up day into doctors, bee boppers, boxers and army personnel, the halls came alive. Then on Saturday, M-29 was lined with en- thusiastic spectators to watch the parade. With another change in tradition, the Pep Rally was Friday night. Following the spirit boosting games, students decorated for the dance and put the last minute touches on their floats. Juniors took the honors as the top float with their realistic tank and jeep following the STRIPES theme. However, Senior spirit prevailed as they took the spirit jug. The charged up student body crowded the cafeteria Saturday evening for the finale — the Homecoming dance. As Diane Soulliere, Student Council President, commented: “The unique events of spirit week were the high points of my final year.” Dr. Charlene Quenneville and intern Karen Beals carry a deceased opponent during the parade as a preview for their float. Mike Booth shows that greasers are cool dudes even during school. General Shelly Kuplerski commands her troops: Diane Sprague, Cary Freel, Bob Sudberry, Kim Stokes, Kelly Hurst, Gail Uhl, Eric Mueller, Frank Malik, Dan Nowicki, Todd Beattie and Don Weaver. Spirit Week 19 Homecoming Court highlights Winter Wacky Week Icy weather had everyone down in the dumps and then the annual week of craziness, better known as Winter Wacky Wee k took over. The week began with everyone dressing to their favorite college. The Slave Sale, which gives everyone a chance to get out of class and purchase their favorite Varsity Club member was another big hit. Slaves could be seen carrying books, wheeling their masters down the hall, or even giving piggy back rides. Their costumes ranged from bathing beauties and cupids all the way to housewives, wrestlers and outfits suitable for combat. For the first time, a basketball all male Homecoming court was added. The student body voted and elected Dan Beals as King. During the course of the Slave Sale, a few problems developed with inappropriate costumes. Following the assembly, Mr. Ford spoke to the student body reminding slaves and slave owners of what would be considered proper attire. “The situation was unfortunate. In the future, all groups will need to be aware of proper guidelines prior to any assembly.” (Ms. Broeder) Home Slave! Mike Booth’s slave, Rory Jacobs, follows orders obediently. Matmaid, Tracy Montgomery, enjoys the activities taking place in the lunch room during the slave sale. Bill Adams spent the last year in Australia returning in December. He brought his friendly kangaroo back with him just for the slave sale. Lori Stoll, Matt Mueller, Julie Petrovich, Devin Hinkle, Cyndie Petit, Dan Beals, Chris Castiglioine and Andy Petrovich enjoy the first dance after the King was announced. 20 Curly, Moe and Larry, better known as Sue Anderson, Gail Uhl and Julie Petrovich, do the curly shuffle on the gym floor during the slave sale. In 1980, Dave Green was participating as a slave. Now the tables are turned and Dave becomes a victim of the participants. Jim Maniac! has his slaves Sue Anderson and Julie Petrovich wheel him to class. Julie Biland awaits further orders from her master. Laury Prior and Christy Newberry pose with their bathing beauty slaves, Matt Mueller, Devon Hinkle and Dan Beals. Winter Wacky Week 21 Student Council meetings are held monthly on the first Monday. Ann Marie Castiglione, Shelly Kuplerski and Kristen McQuade laugh as the group brainstorms for Winter Wacky Week. Diane Soulliere reviews the agenda before proceeding to the next item to fit many important issues into one short hour. After Dan Beals was announced Homecoming King, the entire court danced with their escorts.

Beginning in July, the Student Council has worked to keep everyone involved and activities a part of daily life. President, Diane Soulliere, instituted a strict attendance policy, recommended assemblies sponsored by the classes and kept the monthly meetings full of ideas for new projects. “I think Diane’s doing a good job. She’s responsible and if there’s a job to be done, she’ll do it.” (Michelle Ellis) Student Council also decided to have a Christmas tree in the cafeteria. Overnight a few elves added the decorations to the tree, so when students cut through the cafeteria December 15, it was with a little extra cheer. The tree will continue as an annual tradition. With the strength in student leadership, the activities never seemed to stop. “The feelings of accomplishment after a big project has been completed and seeing that others have fun make all the work worth it.” (Diane Soulliere) Christmas cheer begins with a new Student Council tradition. A tree with ornaments representing all school groups was added to the cafeteria. Bill Hogsett adds the tinsel as a finishing touch. Balloons . . . and more balloons . . . Jodi Moravcik and Krista Sudberry try to keep up with the demand for more balloons before the helium runs out.

It recognizes students who have displayed excellence in scholastic performance and outstanding character. Being accepted isn’t easy. A junior must have a 3.5 g.p.a. and a senior a 3.2 g.p.a. just to be considered. The chapter at AHS has grown from its beginning in 1940 and the 13 original members to the 56 members currently involved. Active parents on the NHS steering committee were: Mrs. Biland, Mrs. Bieke, Mrs. Davis and Mrs. Murphy. “I feel privileged and proud and honored to be a member. I think everyone will go a long way in life.” (Diana D’Eath) Officers — Tim Trumble, President, Amy Sadlowski, Vice President, Shelley Neff, Treasurer and Mike Vernier, Secretary help keep the group active. Flowers were sold last March for Muscular Dystrophy and an Adopt-A Grandparent program has been scheduled for the spring along with the annual senior breakfast held in May.

Performers 27 Band captures top honors with spectacular performances Continuing a tradition of excellence, Marching Band, Precisionettes and Majorettes captured another “1” at the MSBOA Marching Festival. This competition among bands at Lakeshore High School was strong, but band’s dedication and discipline produced an outstanding performance. “I was really excited after all the hard work we put into it.” (John Grebeta) “It felt great. I was very proud of the band!” (Mr. Reed) As a result of the outstanding performance at the MSBOA Festival in 1982, the band was invited to perform at Central Michigan University on October 15, 1983. This meant an overnight trip at the Holiday Inn for band members. Swimming, arcade games, movies and pizza delivered to the rooms added to a fu n weekend in a college town. Summer activities for band members came to a halt on August 22 when they left for a week at Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp. Camp included improving skills with their instruments, learning new routines, marching and fun. One of the yearly events is the Band-A- Rama held on November 19. Marching Band, Precisionettes and Majorettes perform their halftime shows and competition routines. Participation in parades added to the activities. They marched in the Homecoming, Mt. Clemens Thanksgiving and Marine City Christmas Parades taking first place in all three. After marching season, the band turned its attention to their concert season breaking into concert band and preparing for their spring concerts. Each game begins with The Star Spangled Banner. Cindy Crowe helps bring the audience to their feet while concentrating on the notes with her piccolo. Standing at attention, Lisa Avers and Tom Bates wait for the downbeat. Daily practice helps develop the award winning band tradition. Mr. Reed demonstrates which pitch the note is. Concentrating on the music, Only Time Will Tell, Kent Yaney keeps his eyes on the drum major, Randy Baker, for the next step. 28 Drum major Randy Baker is responsible for keeping the band together. He had the privilege of leading the band all season. Lisa Petit joins in for the opening number, Sirocco. Keeping assemblies lively and spirited. Pep Band waits to get the crowd cheering with the school song. Leading a large parade down M-29 on November 5, the Band captivated the attention of the crowd lining the streets. Band 29 Talent abounds in perfo rming groups Having the reputation of the best in the Blue Water Area, doesn’t come easily. Hard work, discipline and sacrifice led Band groups to be recognized for their talents. After auditioning and being selected for a spot in Taft Road Jazz Society, members take a 6th hour to practice and perfect their ability. Performing throughout the community, these top musicians gave up their free time for concerts, competitions and special events including NHS induction and Band-A-Rama. Opening the season with bright new faces, Precisionettes and Majorettes dazzle the crowds with their newly choreographed routines. During the summer, Precisionettes gave up weekends for car washes and bake sales to earn money to purchase new pompons. This added a great deal of color to the squad and highlighted the blue and gold of the uniforms. Achieving the status of captain is an important honor for Majorettes Gina Greene and Shelley Neff and Precisionettes Heidi Pilath and Janae Heyza. “Being captain is an honor and since I’ve been a member for three years, I had the experience and ideas to offer the squad. I enjoy giving what it takes and working with the girls.’’ (Gina Greene) “The Precisionette squad performed extremely well this past year and all the hard work paid off.” (Heidi Pilath) Ellen Schmidt plays her baritone sax during the NHS induction held on November 29. The Taft Road entertaining the parents at this event has become a tradition. Marching Band performers show their enthusiasm during a football game. Spending the game cheering for every Algonac yardage gain added a great deal of spirit to the stands. Jenny Rollins accompanies the Taft Road Jazz Band during the Honor Society induction with a piano background. 30 Majorettes stand at attention waiting for the signal to begin. Their outstanding performance highlighted the first Saturday game held for Homecoming on November 5. Drum Major, Randy Baker, led the Band down M-29. The band began the parade leading a group of 31 marching units. Despite the chilly day, a large crowd lined the streets. Smiles are essential while performing. Julie Petrovich glows while performing to Maneater. The pledge kick line highlighted the assembly held on October 7 to announce the Homecoming Court. The girls kicked 100 times using the money earned for the CMU trip. Marching down the streets of Algonac, Precisionettes add routines to keep the crowds entertained. Taft Road, Precisionettes, Majorettes 31 The jingle bells add a cheery Christmas spirit to the Mixed Chorus songs. Directing the groups involves total concentration on the part of Mr. McMaken. Wearing a smile, Julie Leenknegt, captivates the audience with “Open Arms.” Finishing his solo, Mark Burguron receives a big round of applause. Foil and more foil is what it took to complete the Mixed Chorus’s “tin man” for their homecoming float. 32 Every member watches intently as Mr. McMaken directs. Chorus performances produce perfection For the first time, Rainbow Connection and Mixed Chorus held a small Christmas performance at Pine Grove Mall in Port Huron. As shoppers moved through the mall, they were entertained by the sounds of Christmas carols to help develop that special spirit. This performance was made possible by the additional fund raising sale of candles and spices along with the annual fruit sale. The two groups usually perform about fourteen concerts each year. This involves hard, in class practice for Mixed Chorus and after school rehearsals for Rainbow Connection. Students may join Mixed Chorus by adding it to their schedule, however to join Rainbow Connection, there is an audition. This involves singing a solo, sight reading music and taking a theory test. Class time for both groups not only involves preparing for all of their concerts, but also working with music theory workbooks. “1 think the group has come a long way. It’s a really fun class when you want to work at singing. I know I’ve learned a lot since I’ve joined chorus.” (Lesha Stager, Mixed Chorus) In Rainbow Connection, it is necessary for each member to add that little extra to continue their tradition of excellence. “It’s a necessity for everyone to give it their all. We like to live up to our reputation.” (Cheryl McLean, Rainbow Connection) A cheery Christmas scene adds to the classic touch of the Rainbow Connection. Rainbow Connection’s float was a cheery sight for the youngsters who lined the parade route. Chorus, Rainbow Connection 33 Preparing the “As Others See It” page, Rob Tucker and Carole Cross complete pasteup. Rat Review staff expands coverage More pages each issue, expanded in depth reporting, changing layout styles and improved photography were combined to produce the “All New” Rat Review. Stressing the importance of writing has led to dealing with disputed topics among students. “Because of the seriousness of the paper, it has caused more controversy.” (Mr. Trotter, adviser) With the new approaches, the staff has added news columns, photo commentary, guest viewpoints and expansion into a variety of topics. “The banner has been changed and we’ve begun to experiment with different things — print color, black lines, grey screen — all trying to make it better.” (Laury Prior, editor) Deadlines are a concern in any publication. The Rat Review is no exception. “The most frustrating thing is that you don’t feel involved in making the paper until it’s time to turn in your story.” (Steve Vernier) Staff involvement goes beyond writing. They spend Mondays trying to meet deadlines. Prior to distribution the papers must be folded which means early morning folding sessions. With these new changes, sales have increased 60% from last year with 220 sold then to 450 now. Papers are also being sold at Danny’s which increases awareness in the community.

Kim Gontarek looks for a new approach for her National Honor Society spread. Good advertising is essential for the upcoming yearbook order day. Ingrid Austerberry helps prepare the posters for the assembly held October 18.

Co-editor Karen Stager adds a few suggestions for layout ideas to Roy Johnson and Noel Viger as they work on the Cross Country layout. 36 Deadlines, inspiration create Remembrance ’84 With the goal of making each year’s book a little better than the one before, the ’84 staff experienced two major changes. First, the staff is now organized in a Yearbook Journalism class offered each first semester. “This gives us a chance to get involved and be a part of all activities in school and to be creative and express yourself.” (Chris Hall) After many years of hoping and dreaming, the ’84 book was finally able to change format increasing in size to 8 V 2 by 11. The change allows for greater layout variety and design changes. “With the bigger book, we were able to do many new creative things.” (Sheri Gulette) Karen Stager and Laury Prior spent the week of July 24 participating in a workshop at Ball State University, Muncie, Indiana. This workshop is one of the top learning ex- periences in the country. “The only thing I thought about 24 hours a day was year- book.” (Karen Stager) Journalism classes sell popcorn, candy and ads to help pay for the book. Selling popcorn helped pay for the enlargement of the ’84 book. Each yearbook provides a group of students a chance to create long lasting memories. “The most interesting thing about yearbook work is watching each staff come together and see their dreams result in a book.” (Ms. Broeder) Planning for feature approaches involves section editors Mamie Steinmetz and Jeanie Williams and co-editor Christy Newberry. Remembrance ’84 staff added color to the Homecoming parade with the float they designed. Reviewing their picture choices, Sheri Gulette and Gia Leon make sure they have the best quality for their spreads. Remembrance 37 Everyone’s rushing to the pay phones because the office phones are for school use only, forcing students to pay. When you need to call home for a ride, when you need to call your friend to find out why he’s absent and why your homework is absent with him, and even when you need to call Dial a Date, the pay phones are there. There should be a couple more phones and they should be put by the shops or in the cafeteria.” (Marie Powers) Hello? Hello? “There aren’t enough phones and sometimes people are waiting for calls while you’re waiting to make one.” (Erick Senkmajer) Waiting can be frustrating as Tracie Kaatz discovers waiting for Debbie Jarosz. Teen Jury Homer X. (a fictious name), a 16 year old junior was recently caught staying out past local curfew hours. He was served a summons to appear in court. There is one different ele- ment. He will be sentenced by a jury of his peers. Teen juries are a new concept for giving students the experience of sit- ting on a jury. The punishment doled out by the teen jurors range from an essay, to a night in the juvenile detention center. Cases such as traffic violations, curfew violations and even theft are tried by the teeb juries. The trials not only affect those be- ing tried, but those who serve on the juries. “It gave me a feeling that I could imagine what it would be like if I was the one being tried.” (Sandy McMullen) Varsity Club VARSITY CLUB: Front Row: Amy Sadlowski, Diane Soulliere, Shelley Neff, Krista Sudberry, Jodi Moravcik, Leslie Tischbein, Dawn Shawen, Cheryl McGuire, Julie Petrovich.

Fund raising for sports equipment, members of the Varsity Club spent the year making money. They worked on a concession stand, sponosred the Slave Sale and added profits to their treasury. With the resignation of Mr. Wight, the club had a late start as the members searched for an advisor. Mr. Sabo and Mr. Maki volunteered and gave support to the group. Tim Blanck and Bill Hogsett- showed leadershp to anchor the club during their year of making money. Bits and Pieces Cabbage Patch dolls were in high demand and limited supply. “Flashdance” influenced current fashion fads and trends. The horror of nuclear war was dramatized by ABC’s highly con- troversial “The Day After.” During the year, many national figures died. A few of these people were: Frank Reynolds, Jessica Savitch, Gloria Swanson, David Niven, Arthur Godfrey, Michael Con- rad and Ethel Merman. ’84 Events Travelers A little bit of European culture enrolled at AHS. It was an experience for the students and families. Two exchange students attended classes. Taina Bruun came from Finland and Ann-Kristine Ronnberg from Sweden. Taina stayed with Mr. and Mrs. Jehle and Annki stayed with Mr. and Mrs. Cummings. “Parents are more cautious in the U.S. than if you were raised in Finland. Here, parents look after you more, they want to know when you go and when you get back and where you are going,” said Taina. Schools are very different. Annki said; “In Sweden, you can’t choose your classes, you choose a line of education,” Taina commented that “here you have to buy lunch and there we get it free. I think school is much harder in Finland.” Exchange Students: Above: Annki Ronnberg, Below: Taina Bruun. Covering the events from February ' 83 to February ’84, many controver- sial events dominated the year. A quiet, sunny Sunday was shat- tered by the news of the bombing massacre on October 23 in Beirut, Lebanon. The death of 24 Marines was a senseless waste with the U.S. in Lebanon for peace keeping. The shooting down of the Korean air liner in September for allegedly straying into Soviet air space was a shock to the world. At the same time, on October 25, the US invaded Grenada and took the American people by surprise. Missile debate was a key element in Europe with the deployment of Pershing II and cruise missiles. Space continued to fill the news with space shuttle trips. History was set with the first American woman (Sally Ride) and the first American black (Gulon Bluford) astronauts to travel into space. “Reach out and touch someone” took on new dimensions as AT T was broken down into smaller groups. This meant larger phone bills. With the beginning of a political year, campaigning for ’84 began. The year was also highlighted by recalls. Following Michigan’s 38% tax increase, legislators in many areas found themselves in danger of recall. In February, the Winter Olympics fascinated us as athletes competed in Sarejevo. Locally, the key story began on the afternoon of May 2. An afternoon thunderstorm began early in 5th hour. The severe wind and dark skies indicated that this wasn’t an ordinary storm. At 12:45, Mr. Tobias sent everyone to the designated tornado shelters. At 2:00, as everyone finally left, students from Harsens Island faced a frustrating hour before the ferry transported them home. Miraculously, no one was hurt, although the damage was 3.7 million. A massive ice jam sidelined Island residents for the first week of April and caused flooding for people along the river bank. Students traveled to school aboard the Coast Guard ice breaker after a few days vacation. Hot vs. Cold Do you remember the first day of school and how unbearably hot it was? How you jokingly asked if class could be held outside because it was too hot inside. When school starts, it’s always hotter than usual because you’re cooped up in- side instead of “frolicking in the sun.” However, this year wasn’t just the first couple of weeks, but throughout the first couple of months, the temperatures reached all time highs. Some of the teachers brought in fans for the sake of education. Fall’s cooling never really ar- rived. As soon as summer showed the slightest weakness, winter promptly took over. And what a November, December and January it was. As if an unusually high ac- cumulation of snow wasn’t enough, weeks of sub-zero temperatures set in, in- cluding a record breaking 25 below. Ice build ups on the river mean that the ferry does not run for Harsens Island students. A Different Focus 39 Not long ago, they sat in classes and K t i ' competed in the SCAL wearing Algonac’s blue and gold. Now the tables have turned, and Dave % Green, Gigi Yax, Dave Dodge and Jessie Wesoloski have returned as coaches. Dave Green replaced Mr. Wight as Wrestling coach. He graduated in 1980, wrestling in high school and then at Adrian College. He never expected to return in this capactiy, but he’s pleased to be here. Coach Yax graduated from AHS in 1978. She attends classes at the University of Detroit, as well as coaching Varsity Basketball. She has been playing for nine years. Dave Dodge graduated in 1976, and is currently teaching at Holy Cross after completing his degree from Central Michigan University. Known as the Voice of the Muskrats,” Mr. Wes keeps an eye on the action and keeps the crowd informed. (Story on page 41) Alumni return He coaches the JV Basketball team. Jessie Wesoloski graduated in 1981, and is in her second year of working with the track team. During Mrs. Merrick’s absence, Gretchen Mueller, who graduated in 1978, took over as a sub. She spent most of the school year working with the science classes. Ms. Mueller graduated from CMU. Tim Wood, ’79, broke many track records as a student. Beginning in March, he returned to work with the track team as an assistant coach. Wrestling coach, Dave Green, sets up the line prior to the meet against Cros Lex to help mat maid Kim Gontanek keep score. All groups participated in the Homecoming parade. Dave Dodge rides with his Basketball players. Give me an A . . . “Give me an A . . .” fans screamed, hollered and cheered the players through many games. Fall saw the football and golf teams with their most successful seasons. Cross Country sent the en- tire girl’s team to the state meet. Wrestlers continued to dominate many weight classes. Volleyball pro- vided thrills as the teams gave strong competition to all opponents. Basketball and close games were a part of this season. Fans cheered themselves hoarse. In the close games between league leading Cros Lex and Marysville, the fans spilled onto the floor to congratuate. Crowds poured into St. Clair High School gym as the Basketball team captured the district title defeating St. Clair, Marysville and Cros Lex. Financing extracurricular activities has been a concern for three years. The Sports Boosters, co-ordinated by Mrs. Neff and Mrs. Kuypers, work- ed with 50-50 raffles and with being a positive support element for all teams. To see if Algonac High is equipped to handle the handicapped, twelve students from Health class volunteered to each spend the day in a wheelchair. The purpose of the program was to increase awareness of the problems of the handicapped. It made students aware of hard to reach locker shelves and the hassle of carrying books and trays. The end of the day brought many relieved students. “I do not want to ever be in a wheelchair again.” (John Chase) Below: Brant Bugg completes his assignment while participating in the project. Fans cheer and scream to keep their vocal support for the team evident. RAT TRAP serves AHS Clocks, stationery, and calculators — all these and more can be found in the RAT TRAP. The RAT TRAP is in it’s second year of operation and business is booming. Started last year by Ac- counting II students, the store caught the school’s attention. The inventory grew from candy and gum to stickers, posters, shirts, jerseys, key chains and buttons. Merchandise is selected and ordered by student de- mand. There is a complete line of notebooks and school supplies. Algonac jackets were a new feature, quilted and unquilted, and in great demand. Employees are selected on their attitude in class, whether they are enrolled in a business class or not, their willingness to work, and how well they do on a changemaking aptitude test. Convenience is a major factor in the store’s operation. Being able to stop in for a pack of gum before class and not having to fight with the candy machines is a strong advantage. To apply for a managerial posi- tion, the student must have work- ed for at least one year and be enrolled in Accounting II or III. The final decision is made by Mr. Basinski, the store’s advisor. As AHS senior, Lisa Malik, sees it, “The Rat Trap provides a quick pick me up between classes.” F or twenty years, Mr. Wes has been the voice of the Muskrats, doing the play by play announcing of all home football games. He acquired the job from Mr. McLeod who did it for 10 years. “I started as Mr. McLeod’s spotter, then he took a weekend off and I got the job.” (Mr. Wes) Now, Mr. McLeod spots for Mr. Wes. “We try not to explain everything because we respect the spectators knowledge of the sport.” (Mr. McLeod) “It wouldn’t be football season without the voice of the Muskrats.” (Mr. Ford) As one of the managers of the store, Beth Vogel checks on the stock prior to a class exchange. The store was very popular for snacks. A Different Focus 41 Popcorn making became a weekly job for Jill Ancona. The smells of popping corn attracted many people to room 127 for a fresh ' sample. Karen Beals receives a flower from newspaper staff person, Colleen Meldrum for Sweetest Day in October. Raising money — Money — essential to any group. The juniors wanted an elegant prom, but after two years without class organization, they began the year without money. Raising money became a key concern with conces- sions, mums, santa grams and M M’s. Two success stories are a part of raising money here. First, anything edible sells. Each popcorn sale was an instant sell out. Pretzels, bagels and candy quickly disappeared. “Say it with flowers” led to another success story. Sending flowers — Sweetest Day, Homecoming and St. Patrick’s Day were financial successes. Then the creative side, just for variety with Rat Review ' s Cupid’s Couple. Tradition is also a part of making money. Band candy at Christmas is a part of seasonal cheer. Fruit from Florida makes a yearly visit in the midst of snow through Chorus ef- forts. Class concession stands are a traditional part of football season. Hot dogs and hot chocolate help add to the treasury. 50-50 raffles were another suc- cessful fund raiser for Student Coun- cil and Rat Review. Money — where does it all end up? Publication fund raising is evident in the final product. Student Council kept something always happening and the music departments con- tinued to add materials for their groups. Journalists join Quill and Scroll Chapter Quill and Scroll is the Interna- tional Honor Society for Jour- nalists. It is active in all 50 states and 33 foreign countries. More than one million high school jour- nalists have been selected to join Quill and Scroll in the past 57 years. In September 1982, 67 new schools were granted Quill and Scroll charters. One of these was Algonac HS. There were 1 1 juniors and seniors inducted that year as charter members. To be eligible for Quill and QUILL AND SCROLL: Front Row: Sheri Gulette, Patti Kenny, Chris Hall, Christy Newberry, Laury Prior.

Back Row: Paula Modolo, Ed Bernardi, Bill Hogsett, Linda Yax and Karen Stager. Scroll, the student must be involved in either yearbook or newspaper, have a 3.0 grade point average and a supporting letter from their adviser. In February, 1984, 13 new members were added. Students were honored for their participation in the journalism program. “It isn’t easy producing the newspaper or the yearbook, and I think being a member of Quill and Scroll is an honor.” (Renee Schewe) 42 Orwell’s 1984 1984 is here. The awaited year is upon us. The reason this year is dreaded is George Orwell’s vision in his book entitled 1984 . It was published in 1949 and has been re- quired reading for English classes for 36 years. George Orwell believed western society could someday turn into an all-powerful totalitarian state. The state’s leader would be called Big Brother who watches everyone through two way television. London is the setting of the book, the chief city of “Oceania.” Winston Smith is the main character who works for the Ministry of Truth. He rewrites history so it corresponds with the latest party platforms. The enforcers of Big Brother’s orders are the Thought Police. Agents are everywhere and children are taught to expose their parents. Winston has treasonous thoughts and joins the underground called the Brotherhood. The Brotherhood is in reality an instrument of the Thought Police to trap possible rebels. He is tortured until his spirit is broken and he transfers his love to Big Brother. 1984 is a warning against the dangerous socialist collectivisim and not Orwell’s prediction for America in 1984. Orwell’s warning is summed up in a sentence written by Winston in his illegal diary, meaning that if Orwell’s fears come true there is no turning back. “Until they become conscious they will never rebel and until they have rebelled they cannot become conscious.” Orwell believed that common sense would prevail over the lies of government and prevent the totalitarian state. Orwell didn’t believe the nightmare would take place in the year 1984. As historians point out, 1984 was not Orwell’s first choice for a title, but his publisher’s reversal of the last two digits of the year it was published (1948). College Composition students this year were required to read 1984 . They discussed possible hidden meanings in the book and parallels to our world in 1984. “College Comp, students also learned Big Brother’s fourth slogan was ‘Performance, Not Excuses’.” (Mr. Holmes) Waiting for the program to print, Cindy Lamb mental- ly reviews the next step. Computing Personal computing sounds more like science fiction than fact. But it’s here and is growing at a fantastic rate. As a result, there is a growing involvement in personal computing. “I became interested in computers because you can control what hap- pens and you can make your own programs.” (John VanOast) Personal computers are quickly entering everyday life and maybe some day every household will have one. Typing in the program, Dave Ruemenapp and Tom Hammang complete their Computer II assignment. Mr. Muskrat Muskrats are found in marshes and on shores of lakes and rivers, so what muskrat wouldn’t feel comfortable making it’s home in Algonac. How appropriate to be the fighting Muskrats of AHS. At various school activities, Mr. Muskrat makes a motivating ap- pearance. He is a constant reminder of spirit that can be seen and even touched. The Mr. Muskrat costume was a gift to the school from the class of 79. It made it’s grand appearance at the senior awards assembly leading the class out of the gym. It is a lonely existence when your sole purpose is to cheer on your school and be stuck in a box the rest of the time, but the fan’s A Different Focus 43 Back to Basics Sports Techniques, discipline, skills — are all part of learning the basics.

From that point on Algonac continued to show improvement by beating Richmond, Imlay City and New Haven in the exciting Homecoming finale. The Richmond game ended in overtime with both teams scoreless. Ed Bernardi started off with a six yard run. Then fullback, Curt McLane, ran for the only touchdown of the game. Algonac’s next conquest was Imlay City where Ken Licari helped the defense with two interceptions and Mike Hoag had one for 55 yards. Coach Witherspoon felt that the team constantly showed improvement and when “they played as a team, they were really good.” Sentiments remained the same among the players. “We had more talent on this team than we knew what to do with, but just didn’t have the right stuff to put it all together.” (Ed Bernardi) Receiving end of the season honors were: Ed Bernardi — All League; Matt Mueller and John Powers, Second team for offense, Jay Wood and Todd DeSloover, second team for the defensive squad.

ALCONAC HIGH SCHOOL 48 Enthusiasm, eagerness, spirit characterize JV Football Without active junior high programs, JV players faced opponents with a great deal of previous experience. “The majority of our squad was composed of inexperienced freshmen and sophomores who approached the game with enthusiasm and vigor unmatched by any other football team I have coached.” (Coach Dan Shafer) This team constantly offered encouragement to the 11 players on the field which resulted in Dan Roland, Sean Sullivan and Tim Harlow leading the team in touchdowns. Curt Reams and Tony Meldrum were top offensive linemen and Jeff Poosch the top defensive lineman. Coached by Dan Shafer and George Richardson, the team stressed the fundamentals and developed into a fighting unit. By their last game against New Haven, the team provided strong competition. “We worked well at the end of the season with our experience.” (Sean Sullivan) Coach Shafer surveys the field before giving Rob Rager some last minute advice and strategy. Pat Fett and Tim Harlow help Erik Kemp run for the touchdown. Curt Reams and Tim Harlow provide the essential blocking after Doug McMullen’s kickoff. Junior Varsity Football 49 Dedication, commitment motivate Varsity With the addition of a new coach, alumnus Gigi Yax, ’78, varsity basketball players learned new techniques. Coach Yax worked on developing “dedication, commitment and discipline.” Throughout the season, these changes became evident as the group came together as a team. “They began to play as a team consistently by the end of the season.” (Coach Yax) Even with the limited numbers trying out for the team, each per- son gave 120 percent. Kim Busuttil, ’82, returned to provide valuable aid working with the team. With the effective team play, the game on October 27 against St. Clair showed their push to win. St. Clair was rated second in the league but that didn t damper the spirit. The pressure was on and the game came down to the wire with AHS defeating St. Clair by one point. All the players were equally important but some excelled in dif- ferent areas. Debbie Manthey led the team in many areas including most valuable player, and most free throws. Also honored were Wendy LaParl, team player, Charlotte Kasperowicz, most im- proved, and Taina Bruun, most rebounds. Exchange student Taina Bruun takes careful aim and shoots while Karyn Doan blocks.

Starting the season with seven players, two were moved up to varsity (Polly George and Paula Weaver.) This meant adjustment as the remaining five had to play the complete game and give over 100 percent. Each game held thrills for the players and fans with the most exciting game being the game versus Marine City. It was tough because the teams were neck and neck the whole game coming down to the last few minutes when Algonac was unable to pull through with the score of 28-33. After this game, Paula and Polly were moved to varsity. “With only five players and one returning from last season (Cathy Carson), the team suffered from lack of experience.” (Coach Dave Dodge) Each game became a learning process as the girls competed against some of the stronger teams in the SCAL. Also, at a disadvantage because of the lack of Junior High programs, the girls found each game a learning situation. Cathy Carson was the most valuable player, with Lisa Gamble, most improved. Other outstanding players were: Cindy Angers, Stephanie Muir and Wendy Klier. Stephanie Muir jumps to hit the ball to her teammate, Cindy Angers, to get the action moving during an exciting game against St. Mary, St. Clair.

Junior Varsity Basketball 53 All Star Runners advance first girls team to state meet Nov. 5 Dedication clearly made up for the boys’ lack of run- ners and the girls’ lack of experience. One of the best records was achieved by the girls as they were the first team from AHS to qualify for state finals. They also took a second place at the state Class B Regional. Both of these achievements made this a season that they would not soon forget. The boys with only five runners made Algonac very competitive. They were determined not to give away any meet without a fight. As a result of the outstanding performances, many awards were given and records broken. Some of the outstanding highlights are: Bobbi Sue Johnson: Captain, most valuable runner, First Team All State for second year in a row with her 8th place finish, First Team All Blue Water Area for third year in a row, First Place Finish, Marysville Invitational, Second place at state regionals. Julie Biland: First place in SCAL League Meet, Qualifying for state finals for second year in a row, First Team, All SCAL for second year, Second Team All Blue Water Area for second year.

Breaking records was part of this season. Midway through the season, the team broke 200 for the first time ever since the team was organized. The team also did well in district play to build a winning feeling. Even though Golf is an individual sport, the team shows a great depth of feeling as a group. Team attitude is a key element. According to Coach Jackson, “Everyone encourages each other.” Junior Jeff Allegoet, captain, comments: “All members get along well together. We need that good teamwork to make our season successful.” With many exciting matches, one of the best according to Coach Jackson was the competition against Cros Lex where Algonac led 185 to 193. Leading scorers for that match were: Jeff Allegoet with a 45, Andy Chwan with a 46, followed by Tom Golembiewski and Joe Drexler, each with 47. During the awards assembly, Jeff Allegoet was voted most valuable player. Cary Freel and Joe Drexler were voted most improved players. The overall record of 4-10 in all match play led the team to the most successful season. Andy Chwan takes a moment to see where his ball landed. To Ed Manzo, concentration is very important in Golf. Tom Golembiewski takes time to practice before hitting the course. GOLF: Front Row: Erik Senkmajer, Ed Manzo, Cary Freel, Kent Yaney.

Good coaching, playing as a T-E-A-M and hard work at practice and games are a few of the key elements that led the team to success. This season began with a bang as AHS tied Sacred Heart, a young team with great stick work. It was uphill from then on with AHS tying five and losing only one in the en- tire season. One of the most exciting games was against Liggett. After the first loss, the girls came back to tie in the second rematch. Having ten new players made the team look young and inexperienced, but wehn they got on the field, everyone looked like naturals. “This year, we had a lot of new players on offense with more experience in the defense. This may explain the several tie games.” (Coach Jane Eglinton) With the most experience, the seniors led the team with co-captain, Jean Rolewicz, four year veteran, playing left halfback and co-captain Lesley Loeffler, four year, play- ing center halfback. Shari Justice, four year, played right inner, Ingrid Austerberry, sec- ond year, played left and right fullback while Tina Hurlburt, second year, played of- fensive positions. At the end of the season, awards for most improved were won by Mol- ly Fullington, ’87 and most sportsmanlike, Jean Rolewicz, ’84. Kathy Krause keeps the ball going, while her opponent attacks.

Field Hockey 59 Equestrian riders capture second place in Division B Lynn Poosch, on Fancy-Four-Soxs, concentrates on perfection. Denise Fett, on Ben, performs a figure eight under the judge’s watchful eye. Jeff Poosch, on Alejo Boy, trails through the obstacle course to impress the judges. Cherie Fisher and Legendary’s Syntury follow the trail markers past the mailbox to the next stop. All moves show the rider’s control of the horse while performing tasks. Returning to B Division gave added incen- tive to the Equestrian Team. B Division means the team has nine members or less. Seven members represented Algonac. Strong showings at the first and third meets helped the team achieve second place in Division B, ahead of seven other schools and behind Richmond, who had a total of 348 points to AHS’s 309. During the second meet, Chris Blackburn’s horse was lame which prevented the team from adding addi- tional points. “Although members compete on an in dividual basis, it is truly a team effort with everyone helping each other. I attribute our success to this team effort.” (Coach Bernie Lezell) For Chris Blackburn, individual honors were earned in English Showmanship, English Equitation and Two Man Relay. Lynn Poosch was best in Western Riding, Trail, Western Equitation, and Western Bareback. Western Riding and Speed-n- Action were Jeff Poosch’s best honors. Sue Hankey was good in Speed-n-Action and Two Man Relay. Cherie Fisher placed sec- ond in Huntseat Fitting and Showing and Trail. Bob Lezell was outstanding in Barrel Racing and Showmanship. Denise Fett was best in English Equitation and Huntseat Bareback. 60 EQUESTRIAN TEAM: Denise Fett, Jeff Poosch, Lynn Poosch, Chris Blackburn, Bob Lezell, Sue Hankey, Cherie Fisher.

I •« M Mi One of the stars of the season was Dave Tuzinowski (Tuzzy). Even with strong guarding, Dave reaches up and puts the ball in for two. Keeping AHS on the scoreboard was a consistent aim. Ed Bernardi manages to put another two in. Coach Jackson accepts the district trophy from East China Superintendent Don Pobuda while the team cheers.

Devon Hinkle’s sharp shooting arm kept Algonac alive in each game. He prepares to add another two points to secure the lead. Keeping the ball out of New Haven’s hands to maneuver it into shooting position, Ed Bernardi’s fast footwork frustrates the Rockers. Dribbling out of a tight spot, Ricky Sachs keeps control of the ball. As Devon Hinkle shoots, Mike Vernier is set to snatch the rebound. Dynamic seniors lead to district title Strong seniors helped spark an outstanding second half of the season culminating in the district title. The winning streak began with an exciting game against Cros Lex. Then a close game against league leading Marysville kept the crowd cheering. Record breaking and outstanding efforts a highlighted the season. Dave Tuzinowski set a new school record with 76 blocked shots. Coach Jackson earned his 100th career victory with a 66-62 decision over New Haven. Dave Tuzinowski and Devon Hinkle were named to All SCAL (1st team) and All Blue Water Area 1st team. Coach Jackson was named Coach of the Year. Tim Blanck and Ricky Sachs earned honorable mention, All SCAL. Individuals working together helped to make the team successful. Tim Blanck and Tom Licari were outstanding in defense. Ricky Sachs, Mike Vernier, Ed Bernardi and Mary Tischbein added to the overall success with a strong performance.

Curt McLane looks for an opening to pass the ball as the team moves the ball down court. 64 Determination motivates Muskrats Junior Varsity Basketball with their new coach, Mr. Greenwood, worked to strengthen basic skills and instill discipline. “Lack of a junior high program and lack of experiences were a handicap.” (Mr. Greenwood). Even with this problem, the team reached it’s goal of being competitive. Among the victories, strong games against Marine City and Marysville were exciting. A few cliff-hangers were New Haven and Imlay City as the JV tried their best, but fell one point short of triumph. “We are improving everyday and every game. We know we can do it, but we just can’t get over that big step.” (Curt McLane) With the new coach the players are learning a great deal. “Coach Greenwood has shown us many ways to outwit our opponents. He brings psychology into the game.” (Rob Bernadi) Strong players include — most valuable player — Eric Parent and other leading performers: Andy Petrovich, Curt McLane, Rob Bernardi and AJ Hopkins. With the New Haven team providing opposition, Rob Bernardi shoots for two. Above: Mr. Greenwood helps plan the strategy for the second quarter. Taking careful aim, Andy Petrovich outmanuevers his opponent to have a clear shot at the basket.

On January 26 at Cros Lex, the Muskrats won six matches in a row. Pins by Kurt Gilbert, Eric Norman and Mike Brockley were a highlight with Preston Brochardt, Sean Sullivan and Matt Winkler defeating their opponents and Roger Bernabo securing a tie. At the January 21st tournament, A1 Biland was voted by the coaches, the Tournament’s Most Valuable Wrestler. Then it was on to defeat St. Clair. Pins were perfected by John Powers, A1 Biland, Kurt Gilbert and Mike Brockley. At the Macomb County Invitational Tournament on December 19, A1 Biland took the 93 pound championship with four pins and a 7-6 decision. He is one of three Algonac wrestlers to do this in the last five years. Dave Green took over as coach, giving the team a great deal of help in developing skills and instilling confidence in their individual skills. Algonac’s strong season with dedicated wrestlers earned them second place in the SCAL. Keith Norman sets up his opponent with careful strategy and planning. Matt Winkler uses a hold to defeat his opponent. Roger Bernabo has his Cros Lex opponent on the mat.

Varsity Volleyball put together a special combination of teamwork and game play. Six of the eleven players played for their first year making the adjustment to fit in with varsity strategy. “The concept of molding a strong team came from our ability to help each other.” (Kim Kasperowicz) And help each other the team did, practicing weekdays and Sundays, striving for teamwork, sportsmanship and a basic varsity game of bump, set spike. All of this practice aimed at the goal of trying to execute the perfect moves. “Workers seem to be the best word to describe this year’s team.” (Anita Southard) The team worked together to keep a strong team spirit and put into practice their skills. “This team has been very coachable. The girls have shown excellent attitudes and have worked well together.” (Mrs. Eglinton) Awards for individual recognition were presented to: All League Second Team: Debby Johns and Lynn Poosch; All League Honorable Mention: Jean Rolewicz; Most Improved: Charlotte Kasperowicz; Most Sportsmanlike: Jean Rolewicz.

JV volleyball forms team unity Dedication and hard work during practice and games paid off as the 1984 Junior Varsity Volleyball players seemed to improve each time they walked on the court. “A key word to best describe our team is improved.” (Deanna Hadden) As teamwork seemed to be the contributing factor of game play, the girls tried to work and learn together. “Without teamwork, you can’t expect to win.” (Lisa Gamble) Although the team did not always succeed, they never gave up. Net play seemed to be the biggest weakness on the court making players work for more accurate bumps. As three year veteran. Coach Robin Sachs, helped the team by teaching basic skills and showing concern for her young spirited team as they formed a team unity. “Miss Sachs has worked with us every day, putting in her time and work to teach and help us improve our skills, therefore helping us strive for success.” (Patti Engelhardt) Junior Varsity Volleyball 71 Give me an A . . .

Below: Dawn Shawen and Amy Sadlowski entertain the halftime crow d with routines designed with pompons. Stimulating spirit ignited Fan support is a key element for any team and the actions of the cheerleading squads for football and basketball help to build that support. “Enthusiasm, pep and the ability to keep a smile on your face” are some of the qualities a cheerleader needs according to captain, Krista Sudberry. Learning new techniques is also important in building the fan enthusiasm. The squads had a chance to work with the Michigan State University Squad when they spent time at Dave Besemer’s home. The squad also went to a clinic in Chippewa Valley to learn new routines for the halftime show. Led by their adviser, Mrs. Licari, the girls sacrifice personal time for practice and games. They also are involved in fund raising projects including the popcorn stand during the Art Fair over Labor Day weekend. “All the girls are trying their hardest to do their best. They have done a super job at half time and at school pep assemblies.” (Mrs. Licari) Most of all, for each girl, there is a personal satisfaction involved. “It’s a lot of fun and I think it’s important to be involved in school activities.” (Amy Sadlowski) Melissa Wight, Krista Sudberry, Donna Browarski, Trade Albert, Cindy Murray, Jill Vernier and Julie Osterland keep the crowd enthused and cheering during the game. This squad represented the school during football. Cheerleaders 73 Back to Basics People Routine becomes a part of daily life. From Mr. Ford ' s cheery morning announcements, to Monday ' s traditional french fries and Friday’s popcorn each day becomes another x on the calendar of 180 days. Traditions are a part of each class. Seniors assume the place of honor in the gym and begin the process of finishing things to graduate. Each step became part of the series of “lasts.” Juniors began their status as upperclassmen with their rings. Sophomores watched as freshmen survived spirit week and the freshmen finally found it easy to walk the building without getting lost. Routine breakers changed the daily grind. Assemblies sent students to the gym to cheer or laugh. Events involved many students and helped the days pass quickly. With the variety of picture packages available, Cheryl Lorence holds the divider board to indicate a different type of package to process on underclassman picture day, September 30. Homecoming, touchdowns and excitement — Marching Band reflects all of the emotions of the day as they cheer another strong run. 74 Senior year is the realization that you’ve reached the point in your life where it’s ok to Shelley Neff look back, but it’s better to look ahead. Class of ’84 President Tammy Baker, Linda Yax and Anita Southard conduct a taste test as part of a consumer report project for College Comp. Wendy Siefert, Kim Stokes and Diane Sprague get that upperclassman feeling with the delivery of class rings. During a sudden shower, the band and football crowd tries to squeeze into the concession stand area. The result was a sell out for the seniors as they circulated the crowd selling hot dogs, chips and coffee. and Beyond “When I was first elected, I was really happy, I didn’t realize what awaited me. Now when I look back on the year, I wouldn’t change a thing.” Jennifer Rollins Class of ’85 President People Division 75 Seniors finally achieve top status Being a senior is an exhilarating feeling, you know you’ve finally made it to the top — you’re it, you’re 1! You feel like yelling from the rooftops letting everyone know you’ve made it to the top. The privileges of being a senior are many and varied. For some, such as Colleen DeLange it’s having an excuse for everything. For others such as Charlene Quenneville, it’s being 1 in the school and being one step closer to your goals. Being number one, lording it over the underclassmen, being the “big cheese’’ for a change, it’s finally our turn to be looked up to as a senior. Bill J. Adams Susan D. Anderson Kenneth R.

Ecstatic — Humorous Senior Spirit Where else but high school can you scream and yell at pep rallies and wear very unusual clothing for spirit points. These are a few of the crazy things that seniors will do throughout the year. The Class of ’84 has been known for their spirit and class unity for years. In any activity, they are the first to volunteer. A key word in all activities was different. Each event was designed to be fun, different and involved the class. The evening spent decorating the hall saw a large turnout of seniors to cut and decorate. The dance contained a crowd of seniors who stayed until the last dance. Winter Homecoming week was organized by this active class of ’84 who looked at their one last time of enjoying their high school days. Dawn M. Huber Patrick W. Huff Tina M. Hurlburt Huber, Dawn: Sk.

Mini-skirts, leather pants, striped jeans with pumps to Izod shirts, deck shoes, plaid skirts and argyle sweaters are just a few of the fashions that grace the halls daily. Many people like the change from the everyday look to something new and exciting. Jeans and tennis shoes remain a staple for many, but the trend is towards dressing up.

Exam policy affects everyone “Exams won’t be fun, but they’ll help everyone in the long run, especially if you’re going to college.” (Tracy York) For the first time in four years, exams are once again required for all students. The reason for this change is because the School Board and the Administration felt that everyone should have this experience. Not all the students feel the exam policy change is good. “I think it’s not right that they changed it when we became seniors. It’s not fair.” (Lesha Stager) “I do not like it at all. There is less incentive to come to school.” (Scott Boyle) Previously, exams were based on attendance, so that a student with good attendance was exempt from exams. Matthew J.

Rings are a tradition at AHS with the Terryberry Company bringing their selections to school every fall. Juniors eagerly await that wonderful day when the rings finally arrive. Proud Juniors can be seen in the halls and classrooms showing off their rings — a true sign of an upperclassman.

With each credit, with each course, all of the class of ’85 come one step closer to their goal. Juniors 105 When Friday rolls around . . . Friday is the day the entire school waits for. Along with the end of the school week, Fridays bring parties, staying out late, movies, roller skating and many other activities. 1:30, the magic time, brings about a change. The halls are empty as people scurry to buses, and car horns can be heard blowing. Friday, in school, has a few traditions also. The cafeteria sells pizza, Rat Review newspapers go on sale and popcorn is available. Pep assemblies are often scheduled to generate enthusiasm about the game and so often it is test day in class. As the weekend turns into one party after another, the days roll by and it is Monday morning and that alarm is going off again. Pep assemblies are part of tradition. Juniors watch the cheerleaders’ routine during an assembly to kick off basketball season. Cindy Murray, Joanne Vigliotti and Trade Albert can’t wait to get to the Friday regular — pizza.

Bill Rees, Tracey LaParl and Pam Granica work to create the winning feeling. Giving it their all, sophs compete against the freshmen. Doug McMullen, Jim Maniaci, Jeff Poosch, Bill Rees, John Desmarais, John Chase, Leonard Pascoe and Tom Wolak try to capture the title. Sophomores 111 112 Charlene Hoffman A. J. Hopkins Ben Hosford Patti Howe Larry Hromek Cathy Isaacs Filling in those circles can be time consuming as Debbie Drummond and Shelly Seczawa discover. Mike Yax, Dave Piper and Stephany Prater quietly complete the reading skills section. CTBS, State Assessment — Sophs spend days completing tests During the year, each sophomore faces the task of taking standardized tests. In September the state mandated State Assessment test takes days to complete. Then in December, the California Test of Basic Skills follows. Both tests are administered in Comm, classes. A large percentage of the students disliked taking the series of tests. Yet, more than half said they enjoyed missing regular classes. The biggest complaint was filling in the computer circles. These test results provide a great deal of information in program planning as well as provide a chance to see what each student has learned.

No longer “learning the ropes,” sophs walked in confident and ready to be involved. Sophomore year means taking part in more school activities because each person is aware of what is happening. “Rocky” figures filled the halls on theme day and many sophs spent time building the float, organizing assemblies or just being involved. Boyd Jenkins, Bryan Richardson, David Piper and Jim Zitton pass through the cafeteria on their way to their next class. Algonac vs. New Haven is the subject of Jody Yaney’s hall decorations. Darrell Amoe captures the essence of “Rocky” on theme day.

Eric Parent is one of the many “Rocky” characters seen throughout the building. Juniors try to attack the sophomore float. However, Rob Bernardi, A. J. Hopkins, John Murphy, Ben Tallman, Brian Ford, Chris Blackburn and Andy Petrovich hold off their attackers. BELOW: Assemblies add spice to the day. Here the sophs await the announcement of the Homecoming court.

Later on during the year, the State of Michigan also proposed increasing requirements to insure quality in education. When surveyed in an informal poll, most did not mind the math requirement. However, some found the dissecting in the science classes hard to take. Jeff Poosch Tammy Porzondek Shelly Prather Robert Rager Cindy Rausch Kit Raymond Bill Rees Dan Recor Tim Rich Bryan Richardson Tony Richardson Jodell Richmond Jim Rieck Dan Roland Laura Rollins Tammy Romo Amy Rosso Kim Ruemenapp Chemical combinations are part of the lab experience in Biology for George Thompson.

Assemblies add a great deal of variety to the day. Freshmen listen intently as Spirit Week rules are explained. With their first competition, the Freshmen try to pull their team to victory. Tim Rawson, Glen Adams, Eric Edgecomb, Steve Smith, Jim Mackley, Dave Robbins and Bob Roberts try to add that little extra pull. 120 Using the large map, Steve Bida and Shawn Cobb search for all the landmarks in St. Clair County. Stand up and be counted Fitting in can be pretty hard for a freshman, but getting involved in school activities can help make the adjustment easier. One of the best ways to start is by participating in the assemblies. Each assembly is a lot of laughs and fun. They not only strengthen class spirit, but they also bring a little entertainment to the day. When asked if he enjoyed assemblies, Steve Smith answered, “Definitely! They are exciting, even though I did get a face full of pie at the yearbook assembly.” A1 Biland Leslie Blanck Stacia Bloss Mike Booth Heather Borchardt Tammy Bouwkamp Jon Boyer Mike Brockley Vicki Bucholtz Jim Budzeak Brant Bugg Mark Burguron Brian Burkman Robert Burns Trying to steady their man made pyramid, the freshmen race to beat the clock.

Each elective and change of approach works to add variety. Each class is different and provides many approaches to a study of many areas. In an informal survey of classes, Kelly Swanson stated that “teachers should always work to be interesting and to make learning easier.” Some of the interesting aspects can be difficult depending on the students, however, with the new math and science requirement the new choices add variety. “The new requirements are good because you can choose the kind of math and science that you want.” (Tamara Keil) The majority of freshmen agree. They are happy with their education here at AHS. Class assignments involve the concentration of science students Rachel Kozel, Tonja Ihns and Michelle Hart. Working with the Apple Computer during his class gives Ron Curtis a chance to try out many of the new computer games available.

Meeting new people is an important and difficult part of adjusting to high school. What to say, how to say it, where to find all of your classes, what the teachers will be like — are all a part of finding yourself in a new situation. The adjustment was not as difficult as some people anticipated. When surveyed, the majority of freshmen said that it was fairly easy to meet upperclassmen and that they found the cliques easy to adjust to. All in all, freshman year is a year of beginnings — the first step to graduation. Christopher Sikorski Deana Smith Jim Smith Kevin Smith Scott Snay John Soulliere Thomas Sparger Sue Stanek Wally Stephenson Pat Stier Greg Stiltner Lori Stobar Randy Strassburg Jason Stubbe Beginning with the science requirement, Tammy Bouwkamp and George Thompson wait for the reaction as the liquid comes to a boil. Santa gram delivery on December 20 brightened the day for students throughout the school. Becky Jones, Katie Moran, A1 Biland, Mark Menkel and Rick Wagner wait for their Santa Grams while completing the class assignment. 128 Sean Sullivan Kelly Swanson Cindy Sygit Denise Tallman Lisa Thompson Tom Tilly Lisa Tremonti Lori Treppa Deanna Trocino Kim True Tamara Tucker Michelle Vaden Jon VanOast Don VanPlase Shawn Varner Jeff VanSlambrouck Rick Wagner Kitty Warner Frank Weaver Amy Welch Sheri Westbrook Wayne Wetzel Kim Widmer George Williams Todd Wiltsie Gayle Wines Janine Wiseman Greg Wolford Joe Worden Todd Yonaka Kent Yaney John Young Carrie Zalewski Working the Homecoming Concession stand proved to be a financial success for the freshmen and a good way to meet new people for Kim Hallum. Cherie Reed, Tracie Moravcik and Kelly Robb use the lunch break to catch up on the latest happenings. Freshmen 129 Back to Basics Academics With school continuing on a five hour day, the defeat of last spring’s millage proposal and the state of Michigan pushing to make graduation requirements stiffer, students continually faced challenges. Freshmen found little time for electives and seniors worked to fit those necessary electives for college. Another academic change is the exam policy. Previously, exams were tied to the attendance policy, however, this year all students will be taking exams. The practice and discipline that come with exams is an important part of a student’s education. Throughout the country, education continued to be a controversial subject. Everyone is concerned and working to prepare students to adjust to a technical society. Thus, the Back to Basics movement continues to expand. Grades, attendance and attitudes are a large part of the Parent Conference days. Ms. Jones keeps parents up to date on progress in Typing class during the October 20 Conference. Working on a special metal shop project, Clinton Viger uses a hack saw to cut off excess material. 130 “The trend statewide is to more math and science. However, some of the fine art, industrial arts, language and other classes have Dr. Kent W. Leach, University of Michigan been reduced in many districts.” Accreditation Visit, November 2, 1983. and Beyond On October 7, Representative Docherty visited the Algonac School District. Mrs. Merrick and Mr. York took him through the building and visited classes. Here, they observe Mr. Pritchard’s Biology class. Mr. Mulcahy, Mr. Sabo and Mr. Maki get a laugh out of the joke telling contest at the Yearbook Assembly, October 18. Mike Whitmore and Lisa Sikorski go over their checkbooks to find the elusive mistake in their Accounting I project. “You can learn something in all classes even if you don’t think so at first, but you will find that it helps you in the future.” Jo Trumble ’86 Academic Division 131 Administrative policies strengthen requirements With the continuing push for excellence in education, requirements continue to be strengthened. A six hour day is a key need to increase educational opportunities according to Mr. Caimi. Increased requirements in math, science and foreign language should be added according to Mr. Ford. Second semester returned Mrs. Streit to the counseling office and also returned an advanced Computer class. “Emphasis on academics will continue to intensify” (Mr. Ford). With this change in focus, requirements will continue to increase. This year, exams returned as a mandatory policy for everyone. Throughout the district, the focus on education remained. Committees were set up to study homework, testing and curriculum. Positive student attitude highlighted this year. “Student performance on assessment tests continued to improve. We’re continuing the trend that students have been more responsible and sincere in their desire to get an education.” (Mr. Ford) Throughout the entire district, changes were seen including the computer lab added at Algonquin. This is part of a trend towards computer literacy which will affect the high school also. Mr. Vervinck, Mr®. Baxter and Mrs. Trix review the notes on the current motion being discussed before voting. Mr. Caimi and Mr. Hollway meet with the yearbook staff to review the needs of the district and future goals. Mr. Tucker look® at the Remembrance plaque which was presented at the December school board meeting. Mr. Mulcahy review® the daily attendance list. 132 ALGONAC BOARD OF EDUCATION: Front Row: Mr. Robert Vervinck, President, Mrs. Sue Baxter, Secretary, Mrs. Eleanore Trix, Treasurer.

Making an excused absence list is part of Mrs. Fisher’s daily routine. Mrs. Johnson prepares the weekly Saturday school letters to be sent home. office routine “Good morning, Algonac High School” — From 7:30 to 4:00, cheerful voices answer the phone and process a million different requests which are all part of running a school. They also have the responsibility of keeping all attendance forms accurate, running schedules, processing the report cards for the computers and helping to solve lunch ticket problems or locker combinations. Meeting different questions each hour, the secretarial staff handles athletics, attendance, schedules and all of the daily needs. The efficiency helps each day to run smoothly. Mrs. Batchelder calls a student at home to clarify a schedule question. Mrs. Hurst places a memo from Mr. Ford in each teacher’s mailbox. 134 Office Personnel Mr . Bieke and Mrs. Murphy listen intently to discussion about a change in policy. Parents provide valuable insight Becoming involved in school activities increased as members of the Parent Advisory Board along with other parents volunteered to work with the classes. As a result, classes sponsored concession stands, planned fund raisers, built floats and organized activities. Much time is spent by these parents to make sure their children receive the best education possible. “It is my sincere feeling that a parent’s obligation for a child’s development includes participation in the educational process.” (Mrs. Rosemarie Newberry) The way the Board tries to accomplish this is by reviewing school policies, new programs, classes and books. They also help to create better communication between parents, teachers and administrators and by injecting parental thoughts into the school administration’s decision making process. Even though being on the Parent Advisory Board is a time consuming task, these parents find it rewarding. “Just knowing I have a chance to express my feelings is satisfying.” (Mrs. Judie Reams) Listening to a students with a suggestion enables Mrs. Nielson to see the aspects of the issue. Mrs. Hart keeps the minutes, while Mrs. Biland and Mr. Ford discuss textbook evaluation. PARENT ADVISORY BOARD: Front Row: Jane Davis, Mary Lou Hart, Judy Biland, Mary Murphy.

Parent Advisory 135 Four years . . . required classes involve all students Four years of English, three years of social studies, two years each of math and science . . . when given that list as freshmen, students wondered if they would be able to put anything else in. Elective classes were a bonus for freshmen and sophomores. However, the required classes provide a base for the later addition of electives and career plans. Required classes find students reacting with different degrees of difficulty. “Everyone has to take the required classes and some get bored and disinterested because of the subject areas.” (Mrs. Buck) Mr. Pritchard feels that the only problem with the required area is “having too large classes because everyone has to take science, but it also provides a larger variety of students.” The serious side of Mr. Maki appears when he helps Gina Greene with her homework. Speech is a junior requirement. After the initial shyness disappears, students enjoy the class. Mr. Trumble provides encouragement while waiting for the next speaker. Providing individual help, Mrs. Eglinton moves through the room as the students work on their Health projects. 136 Grammar can be confusing, but Mrs. Buck helps keep the perspective clear in her Comm. I classes. Leslie Blanck, David Olsen, Greg Pritchard, Kevin Radjewski, Stephanie Muir, Gail Wines, Shawn Varner, Cyndee Johnson, Amy Welch and Don Avers take notes as an aid to their study. Switching from Algonquin to the high school, Mr. Sanders works with the freshmen explaining whole numbers. Mr. Jackson helps Kelly Connors and Kirsten Caimi as they use lab times for microscope observations of cells in Biology. SCHOLASTICS add a change of pace to the Social Studies classes. Mr. Meganck explains the current Lebanon situation with the aid of the magazine. Required Classes 137 Classes provide opportunity for awareness of current events Classes in the Social Studies department deal with current events in many different ways. Each class realizes the importance of being knowledgeable of world affairs and provides opportunities for students to expand their horizon. The World Problems sections use the daily Free Press so that the students in the class are very aware of what is happening world wide. Each class provides many opportunities for discussion to be aware of the future. Shelly Secezawa, Pam Granica, Gina Grigsby, Bev Okum and Cindy Rodriguez search through the daily Free FYess with Mr. Baker’s help to find the answers to the current questions. World History lectures provide interesting backgrounds about world leaders. Mr. Godfrey answers a question that Joe Way posed on the current world crisis in Lebanon. Mrs. Hartman and Ms. Shagena joined the staff in January just in time for the Winter Wacky Week Slave Sale. MR. ROGER AVERS Social Studies MR. ROSS BAKER History MR.

Paperwork essential for efficiency Essay tests, multiple choice tests, attendance forms, questionnaires, North Central Committees, writing assignments — the paperwork never seems to end. According to Mrs. Mageau, the reason that a teacher’s day doesn’t end is that “you take a lot of it home with you.” Work at home is essential for successful preparation of lectures, assignments and grading. Paperwork is essential to the smooth running of administrative duties. Saturday school is a result of daily attendance and weekly forms to the office. Once the forms are in, they are double checked with attendance records and then the process begins of notifying the students. Each Monday, the process begins again. Joining the staff from Algonquin, Mrs. Krause checks Business Math tests before moving on to the next unit. Attendance records and forms for Saturday school are part of every Monday for Mr. Treppa.

Teacher involvement Charlotte Moore works with Mrs. Murphy adding adjectives to her essay. encourages students With class sizes increasing statewide and in Algonac as the result of the recent financial crunch and cutbacks, situations of one to one are essential to help students reach their potential. Unfortunately as class sizes grew, it became more difficult for students to receive that individual help. Many students waited for the 2:30 bus to receive tutoring in those difficult math or chemistry questions or used that time to use the resources of the Media Center to complete major projects while Mrs. Mageau was available to help. Many of the classes were structured in lab situations so that instructors could provide that essential one to one help. Computers became part of a lab and Mrs. Robertson was able to circulate and help all learn the workings of the machinery. Business classes provided time for individual projects. Even lecture classes lent themselves to time for help as part of class time was utilized to work on the assignments. According to Mrs. Murphy, working with individual students helps because “it meets the needs of each person. Everyone has different problems with understanding assignments so if you work with them you can answer their questions.’ Yearbook Journalism was added to the curriculum. It provided a chance for many people to become involved in the program. Ms. Broeder works with Andy Butterfield to fit the group picture into the JV Football layout. Conferences are always an important time for parents because they can talk to the teachers and see students’ work. Here Mr. Meganck reviews a grade with a 9th gr ade student’s parent. Advanced skills stressed through College Prep “To prepare myself for college courses” — that is the reason that most students give for taking advance placement classes. “College Comp is giving me the chance to practice writing which I will need in college.” (Shaun Davis) Second semester saw the return of advanced computer classes. “Since computers are going to be a big part of our future, computer classes should be required.” (Charlotte Kasperowicz) From Physiology to Chemistry and Physics, students are involved in taking their basic knowledge one step beyond. “Chemistry has proved to be a very challenging course.” (Stacy Baker) 4 I Computers remain an important element of current society. Mrs. Robertson checks the programming step before the program begins its final run. ABOVE: Mr. Sabo sup ervises Tim Blanck and Heidi Pilath as they search for the next step in their experiment.

Adding the finishing touches of piano to the Rainbow Connection, Kelley Kanalos and Lori De Vlaminck help prepare for the Christmas program. Group planning for consumer reporting involves Mr. Holmes and Lisa Malik, Karen Dodge, Colleen Meldrum, Kelly Suites and Debbie Granica. Advance Placement 145 Labs provide practical experience Providing concrete learning experiences, labs help to take the textbook material one step beyond. Computer language becomes real as the actual experience of programming the computer provides fascination and frustration for math students. Each semester, shop classes add a waiting list as students look for that well designed bookshelf from Woodshop to that series of picture frames from Plastics. Business education students constantly meet realistic situations. Timings, mailable letters, receptionists, shorthand lab and office practice all add to prepare students for business jobs. Actual practical publication experience comes through the Journalism Classes as the Rat Review and Remembrance staff members watch their ideas take shape. Mr. Musson teaches Dean Russo and Don Schram how to run an xx engine lathe. Simulated office situations provide Cyndie Petit with a realistic experience as a secretary. Keeping all the figures in the right columns can be confusing. Mr. Basinski helps Chaundra Jehle set up her ledgers correctly. 146 Observations add to the understanding of scientific facts. Mr. Pritchard helps Marnie Steinmetz focus the cell in their study of mitosis. The correct tool to work with the plastic is essential. Mr. Lenore helps Rich Sampson choose the needed tool to complete his project. Setting tabs and centering can be confusing, frustrating and sometimes amusing. Mrs. Huston helps Debbie Drummond set the tabs accurately. Lab Experiences 147 Skill Center experiences build careers Aiming for a skill in a highly technological world, St. Clair County Skill Center students receive practical and useful training. Each day students board the bus for the trip to Marysville for classes in a wide variety of areas. Whether the aim is to be a part of the construction trade or to pick up secretarial skills, the advanced equipment, qualified teachers and helpful professionals found at the Skill Center provide that training. At the conclusion of each course, students who have met the necessary requirements are eligible for certification. These certificates are used as each student utilizes the placement services available in applying for jobs. Practical and necessary today, the Skill Center is a valuable part of education in St. Clair County. Testing a circuit, Ron Doughty works on his Electronics Lab project. Nurses aides, Katie Brockley practices taking blood pressure with the help of Mary Emerick. Steve Sparenborg works with the Electronic Lab’s hydraulic arm to get it to bend. Jay Wood and Mr. Hayes test an alternator on a scope to determine whether or not there are shorts in the part. 148 Eric Heim searches for a part among the many engine blocks which make up the auto shop junkyard. Renee Schewe and Debbie Dewey tabulate profits for the Skill Center BOEC’s Christmas candy sale. Rick Fougnie pours in the plastic pellets which will be melted down to make parts. In the small engines section, Tom Davis cleans and degreases a part. Skill Center 149 Every Thursday afternoon, the yearbook staff made popcorn and relied on Mr. Joe McDermott to help clean up. He takes a short break before moving on to the next job. Support staff — a vital part of daily life Behind the scenes, dedicated people keep each element of the school running smoothly. From the bus drivers who brave every type of weather to pick up students at their door, to the cafeteria personnel who prepare delicious meals to solve those hunger pangs, the support staff is essential. Central Duplicating is an important part of each teacher’s day. Tests and worksheets are printed daily and delivered throughout the district. Keeping everything in repair, meeting the changing weather and heating needs and solving those million locker problems are only a part of the custodian’s day. Behind the scenes, the efficiency of the staff helps keep each element of school life running smoothly. Nr. Eugene Osieczonek checks the pipes to make sure that the boiler is running to full capacity during the cold spells. Dittoes, masters and duplicating are part of Janice Behme’s job daily at Central Duplicating. Mr. Tom Lamb and Mr. Zokoski review the jobs for the coming day to make sure that every need is taken care of. Support Staff 151 lllllliil Mrs. Lauzon fills the large number of ketchup and mustard containers needed for french fry day. Cleanup involves the hour after lunch, Mrs. Freeman finds that cleaning the trays in one of the last steps. Ever smiling, Mrs. Avers jokes with the students passing through the line.

There are so many people who need to be thanked for their help in producing this book . . . to adequately say thank you is difficult . . . First, a special thank you to our family and friends for understanding the demands that this made on our time. To Mr. Ford and Mr. Mulcahy — our appreciation for all the favors, tolerating school interruptions and providing encouragement. A special thank you to Mr. Ford for his photographic help at Homecoming. He helped us make a color deadline almost overnight. To the faculty for tolerating the many interruptions that are a part of yearbook production. To Sam Slis, Taylor Publishing, there are so many things to say thank you for — the help with our color, the suggestions for the magazine and the constant encouragement. We really appreciate you. To all the staff at Craine-Williams Studio — you are a vital part of our success. To all of our photographers — Don, Tim, Mark. Bob, Steve, Jerry and Colette — thank you — you’ve taught us a great deal and helped create these memories. To our phone contacts — Jackie, Chris, Margie, Renee — thanks for always finding our pictures and understanding the million calls. To our studio representative — Steve Lata — thank you for being a calm element when this process seemed overwhelming and helping with every request. And finally, our thanks to Frank Ortman, who has encouraged us for years to strive for this dream of a larger book. We never thought we’d see it. To the McGuire’s for the use of their home for our Homecoming color. To Mrs. Licari, who accepted all of our hall passes. To the sports boosters for the use of the popcorn machine and the many who purchased popcorn weekly. A special thank you to Jenny Leemhuis and Jill Ancona who became popcorn makers supreme. A simple task certainly turned into a weekly job. To the Rat Review staff, especially Dave and Leslie for their help with “instant film’’ To the Board of Education for their continued support. To the office secretaries for their help with names and forms. And finally to everyone who aided in any way from filling out a survey to posing for a picture. We appreciate your help. EDITOR S MESSAGE: We can’t believe that four years of high school and yearbook are over. In a way, we wish we weren’t graduating, because the saying “you learn from your mistakes is true.’’ We’ve learned so much about the trends of yearbooks today, and made so many changes. As editors, we really learned what went on after the final layouts were turned in. There was so much to learn and accomplish. The one thing that we never thought we would see was the larger book. Seeing this dream come true is exciting. Mrs. Broeder is the guiding force in our yearbook lives. When something goes wrong, she is there to help straighten it out, and when we get one of our mental blocks from writing so much, she always has an idea. We’ve done some crazy things this year. The cabinet in the yearbook office displays all of our crazy pictures. Yearbook is such a big part of our lives that we will miss it next year. To the editors of Remembrance 85. good luck — you will need it. Don’t get frazzled around deadline time and don’t let Broed have a stroke — you WILL make the deadline. (Yes, it does sound impossible but this is four years of experience talking!) Ask Broed about Disco Chucky when she’s down, he’s always a good laugh. Take care of her, she is a special lady and a great friend. Last, but not least, don’t follow in the Suds Sisters footsteps and everything will be all right.

As Mr. Caimi sees it: “We never stopped emphasizing the basics. There have been normal changes in curriculum, but it appears that the new requirements will be in the area of math, science and English.” The year truly remained one of looking at the core curriculum and looking beyond to our technical world.
