Dobson High School - Equus Yearbook (Mesa, AZ)

Senior Spunk Tradition was the tradition among seniors this year as they laid the foun- dations for the annual events and ac- tivities that would distinguish Dobson from other high schools. One trait distinguishing the 1985-'86 seniors was the fact that they were the first four year class to pass through the halls. In addition, seniors exemplified the tremendous school spirit that rocked the campus, participating in student council events and capturing several class competition awards. The varsity football team, comprised main- ly of seniors, got off to a spectacular start, after a poor season had been forecast. Consequently, senior excite- ment and enthusiasm ran rampant at the more frequent pep assemblies. Because they spent so much time molding the school’s reputation, the senior class was responsible for many traditions. Proudly displaying their blue and gray, members of the varsity football team revel in school spirit.

Whether it's a shoulder to cry on, or a shoulder to punch, best friends was what the Mustang family was all about. Whether they came in sets of two or three, male or female, best buddies were a support network through the good times and the bad. Making high school memories crazy and wild was easy to do as best friends. Bosom bud- dies at times were closer to each other than to their own families, and found it easier to discuss and relate to personal experiences they trusted only with each other. David Valenzuela, senior, reinforced this when he said, “Being best friends with Johnny (Cruz) was like having a brother I could really relate to.” Having the distinction of being good bud- dies during high school, these friends look forward to the end of the year with a bit of nostalgia. 216 Seniors People
