Shout, shout, let it all out! Varsity cheerleader Shannon Howard pumps up the Rampants at a pep rally. While enthusing the crowd, the cheerleaders and football team hope for a win against Northern Nash. o ' s number one? Junior varsity cheerleader Sally Whichard gets Sophomore Chris Bland all tied up for the class spirit competition dur- ing the first pep rally of the year. Even though the Sophomore class lost out to the Seniors, they gave it their best, because after all they are finally Rampants. No longer the babies and not quite the big boys, the junior class distinguishes itself by getting psyched up for the big game. Through- out the year, they continue to develop and mature on their road to being Seniors! 11 ■

At Pep Rallies And Ball Games We Show Our True Colors Quite simply, we ' re Rose High. Junior Shontell Clark exhibits her spirit to all as she supports the Rampants at a Friday afternoon pep rally. F ridays seemed to be the longest day of the week. Our minds wondered ram- pantly as we antici- pated the chilly, blistering wind blowing across our faces. We invisioned two teams fighting to the finish under the bright lights of the Farley-Minges football , ;i3 stadium. Behind the echoes of Ram- pant pride, the multitudes were clad in the mighty blue and green . . . Who said Rose High didn ' t have spirit? Whether we ' re painted in blue and green or competing with the cheerleaders to determine who really loves our school the most, we show our true colors. Rampant spirit is plastered on the walls, demonstrated through participation in spirit week and pep rallies, and most defi- nitely heard in the halls. Let ' s face it, as Rampants, we want ev- eryone to know that we ' re on the Rampage. Here ' s pie in your eye. Varsity cheerleader Stephanie Lang acts as an applause meter during a pep rally. The louder the crowd got, the higher she sent. Much to the crowd ' s de- light, Coach Williams received the pie treat when the frenzy reached its peak.

Leaving The Pressures Behind We Encounter A Fun-Filled Frenzy V The 3:15 bell rings and within seconds cars are shooting out of the parking lots on to Elm Street. It is Friday and the weekend is well on its way. Forgetting term pa- pers, tests, and late hours of homework, we begin our weekend adventure by tying up phone lines in hopes of finding out what ' s go- ing on for that night. Is it going to be a Rose game, a wild party with friends, or that big date? A mov- ie sounds nice or perhaps we could even have dinner at our favorite res- taurant. Whether it be Darryls, Chi- cos, or our favorite BK lounge, You ' ve got the look! was the theme of the year ' s first dance and possibly the thought in this Junior ' s head. Brad Myers attempts to capture the atten- tion of Senior Mary Beth Brinn. The dance, held by the Art Club after a home game against Northern Nash, was a celebration of victory. there ' s always food to be eaten. Those of us that are lucky enough to be the big 18 could even scope the social scene downtown. Whatever we decide on, it ' s guar- anteed to be a walk on the wild side as we are unleashed to embark on another two-day weekend. Unfortunately, Mon- day morning comes much too soon. We slowly pull into our designated parking lots with thoughts of all the work we didn ' t do over the weekend. Yawning, we approach each other reluctant, but ready to face another week of all the stress and pressure we call high school. C ' mon Duane, smile for the lady! A newly met acquaintance tries to persuade Duane Holder, a bashful Junior, to show his pearly whites. Both were enjoying a Thursday night filled with food, friends, and fun at the fair. 1 1 12
