lVlore Than You Know: hanges Create Life eflecting on past experiences, sensing subtle changes in attitudes, anticipating all the future has to offer. Whether a freshman just getting used to the class load, or a junior preparing for the challenge of being the top of the ladder, every student ends the year realizing, if not understanding the changes in themselves, their school, their family, and their friends. Throughout the year alterations are made, and things adjusted to make life easier, and hopefully better. lt took a while for me to not be bogged down with all my activities and homework, but by the end of they year l've got it pretty well under controll, recalls junior DeDe Forewood. Not all changes can be comprehended at once. Especially when there are more and more than ever thought possible. Pieces of knowledge, little things that made existing easier were learned, and put into memory for future reference. Sophomore Tracey Fossum exclaimed, I finally figured out that room 300 is in the 200 north hall! It doesn't make sense, but at least l'll know how to find it now. Another change still in progress, even as students leave for summer vacation, is the addition to the 100 hall, so the special service kids will become a real part of the school. Values are built up, knocked down, and rebuilt constantly during high school years. Les City and John Germinaro, seniors organized a tail-gate party before the Varsity basketball quarter finals. Over 50 students congragated Thursday, March 3 to play frisbee, football, barbeque hot dogs and raise school spirit. Mr Art Nichlas, principal of student conduct checked everyone for alcohol as a precaution. When none was found, he expressed his pride in the maturity of the students, and continued, l hope you can do this more often, lt's what the school morale needs most... positive actions! Both inside and out of school, relationships change and develope over the years. Chandra Garcia, senior recalled, Freshman year, l met all these people and made new friends. Then l never saw them for two years straight. Senior year we shared a class again, and it was like we just picked up where we had left off, we were as close as before. For every ending there is a beginning, and every beginning brings new changes, new experiences, new feelings. As we look back and see how many ways we have changed, look forward to next year, the next decade, and know that you'll have more changes to grasp then you know. Closing 263
