SENIORS 10 Senior section like senior year is too short. It seems as though we just opened Fenwick ' s door as Freshmen and now we are taking our last look back before we step out into the world. Freshmen year was a giant step for most of us. We left the security of grammar school to be introduced to the Fenwick community. Everything was ready for us at Fenwick but we were not ready for Fenwick. We had to learn to adapt and to become members of the class of 1978. As things became more familiar to us, we began to feel more secure and sure of ourselves. Sophomore year provided us with the time to get to know people better, to develop deeper relationships, and to get more involved with Fenwick. That year we channeled all our youthful en- thusiasm to work together to win the spirit award at the Thanksgiving Day rally. We had begun to become a class — one group. Entering Junior year, we passed the halfway mark and had established a sound base filled with contentment. We knew what was expected of us and we tried to live up to those expectations. Junior month, the Cotillion, class rings and class elections brought us together as a class and made that year more memorable. With Senior year coming upon us quickly, we were confronted with every- thing! There were colleges to investi- gate, careers to think about, and dead- lines to meet. We had so many things to look forward to, Berumda, Senior week and Graduation. Now it is time to leave. Everything is done. We want to let go, venture out, yet our memories hold us back. It is time to close the door. Now we must move on.
