Junior high enjoys sports, responsibilities Eighth grade class officers for the 1983-84 school year were President Angie Kotschwar, Vice president Val Planansky, Secretary Kayleen Kumpf, Treasurer Susan Olson, Student Council representatives Chris Baer and Kathleen Gasseling, Sponsors Martin Egging and Susan Shaver. The seventh grade class officers were President Tony Minich, Vice president Todd Turek, Secretary Lori Olson, Treasurer Jake Lynch, Student Council representatives Greg Hill and Jami Cullan, Sponsors Ed Planansky and Mary Lliteras. Junior high students gained many new responsibilities in academic areas as it was the first year for Computer Programming, an elective, and Speech 8, a required course. These classes gave the students a head start for their high school classes. It was also the first opportunity for these junior high students to go on the band trip to the Nebraska State Fair in Lincoln. Eighth graders were again allowed to participate in the high school mixed chorus, a privilege begun last year. In the Americanism Essay Contest Val Planansky earned first place and Marcia Puita earned second in the junior high division. Besides competing in many organized sports, selected students met with con testants from ten area schools in the annual Quiz Bowl held this year at Alliance. Mrs. Judy Gasseling sponsored the group.
