Punked out are Stephanie Boaze, Ricky Hutcher- son, and Pat Owen as they get kinky to the beat of “Quishe Lorraine’ by the B-52’s. Pat Owen was the winner for the seniors in the Punk Day Contest held during NUNTIUS spirit week. Altavista students and parents sit at a football game supporting their favorite team, ‘‘The Colo- nels’. Although wins have been scarce over the last few years, fans remain loyal to their team. 16 Student Life

special Moments Are ... Going to high school wasn’t all just sit- ting in classrooms and learning. There were many special moments involved in it too. A best friend got crowned homecoming attendant or won the most improved play- er trophy. There was the date with the school jock when you came home smell- ing like beer. Student drink machines are back! Dina Hollie opens her drink after school, the only time the ma- chine is operable. The baby shower thrown for Mrs. Ashby Midkiff was a party that made both Mrs. Midkiff and daugh- ter Erica happy. Competing for vice president of the junior class is Karen Pillow. As a successful candidate, Karen helped get ready for Prom and the ring dance. Those football cheerleaders did some Crazy stunts too like the time they held a funeral for the Hawks. Oh, and all the eleventh graders returned to school with drivers licenses. The tenth graders were cool walking down the halls with their newly acquired varsity jackets. What about that pep rally when the tenth and eleventh graders combined to fool the judges and try to win the competition cheer! Well, maybe school wasn’t so bad after all. Proving who’s the strongest are Allan Parker and Kenny Yeatts. Arm wrestling at lunchtime helped middle schoolers work off excess energy. Student Life 17
