in Student Life There Is Strength In Numbers Student life was more than a date, a dance, or just getting together with friends. It simply involved having fun and en- joying the many op- portunities our school had to offer. The number of happen- ings seemed to multi- ply almost as fast as the number of stu- dents, allowing for in- dividual students to seek out their own unique interests. School activities acted as the main fo- cus for a variety of social events. Sport- ing rallies snared the attention of students throughout the year with Friday night games acting as a lead-in for an exciting weekend. Pep rallies, spirit days, school dances, and drama performances of- fered creative occa- sions in which stu- dents could freely express their emo- copy cont. on pg 8B Sophomore Melissa Botson, senior Trey Lacy, and junior Paul Valichnac spend a (ew moments talking about the latest activities.

On the other hand, the atten- dance of formal dances, such as homecoming and prom, offered a qui- eter and more re- laxed evening. Non-school activi- ties also played a major role in the lives of our students. De- voting their time to a job was a goal shared and carried out by a number of students. Outlets for weekend relaxation included dating and sharing special mo- ments with close friends. Despite the vast dif- ferences students encountered in each other, the majority transcended the dif- ferences to find a strong bond with each other and our school. Design by K. Arnold.
