Talented and Gifted? What would you think a class would try to teach you that was called T.A.G.? This class teaches you to think. These students get up early eno- ugh to be in class by 7:15. In this class the students learn to think critically and they learn more about their favorite hobby or the profession they wish to pursue. For a semester project the stu- dents have to present a project on whatever hobby or occupation they are interested in. Autumn Williams is researching to find out about her family tree. Cyndy Montgomery is doing a re- port on the history and culture of the people who lived on the Buffalo River. Martha Strange is interested in creative media for teaching. These students are stretching their abilities to the extreme end to learn everything they can. HGMEMAKERS The 4-H does a lot for kids. One of them is sponsoring cooking contests.

W Along with the new school year came some new fashions. Walking down the halls of Robinson was like seeing your favorite fashion mag- azine come to life. Most of our students kept up with the quickly changing fashions. Many of the girls were seen wearing straight legged jeans and cowboy boots. Bag- gy pants and spiked heeled shoes were very popular with the girls also. But the girls weren't the only ones dressing in style. Some of the guys were seen wearingplea- ted pants with very stylish sweaters. FASHIONS V 1980
