 UNIOR OFFICERS fl BREAK THE MOLD There are always traditions to uphold, but the junior class ofticers did their best to Break the mold. The main projects that Matt Gehrman, pres., Bernadette Spilotro, vice pres., and Kristin Drathman, sec tres. had wait- ing for them when they took of- fice were the tasks of organiz- ing Mrop and Prom. They went about it with a unique style. Traditionally, Morp had been held indoors with a set style of dress to adhere to. Morp 88' was The Great Outdoors with four backgrounds depict- ing a forest, a beach, a snow scene, and a desert land- scape. Students were invited to dress in any or all of the four different styles, and the results were fascinating. I think that all three of our diverse opinions and ideas came together in council with the whole student body in mind. Kristen Drathman, Jr. class sec tres.

When seniors were at school, they had their own places to hang out and talk be- fore classes. Even if Mr. Walsh broke up the group a couple of times a week, The Wall was the favorite spot of most seniors. Most seniors took full advantage of any privilege offered them. Although senioritis did strike early seniors kept the faith and their spirit alive until graduation.

He had done the job well and by working together they came up with “Just One More Time by The Cure and colors were emerald green and sil- ver. HAVING A GREAT TIME.
