whois - F-'PZOPZZ fm gm meow he diversity of the school, and variety of students is something that can't be missed. Freshmen had a new school and the anxiety which grew when they had to face over 900 seniors. Organizing themselves enough to have a respectable float at Homecoming, having bottom lockers, and staying on campus for lunch are three things all freshmen hope to outgrow. This year, sophomores were deciding on a slogan for their class. They held a data-match and sold yellow Skyhawk car signs to raise money for coming years. Juniors had a new attitude for being almost seniors . Winning the Homecoming float competition three years in a row was definitely a beginning. But reality was there, too. It suddenly became time to take the PSAT and start looking at colleges. For the senior class, it was a year for change. Instead of having a slogan, they opted for a hot pink graphic '88 to represent the class that sizzled with new found spirit. They won the spirit stick twice and the number of people who showed up for the last minute effort to refurnish the Homecoming float was unsurmountable. Yes, the variety of students among the classes, really does make the school. 161
