1986 John Adams High School 808 South Twykenham Drive South Bend, Indiana 46615 Student Life: ALBUM The Best Of Times Decorating a friend ' s locker for her birthday, popping the question to that special girl for a date to prom, meeting friends at Off the Strip, ' getting caught by Mr. Adelsberger during Mr. Aronson ' s class, and staying up all night at work were all part of an average high school student ' s life at John Adams. Vol. 4 5 Fac-N-Ac: 34 Whether students were interested in art or English; astron- omy or drama, the opportunities to fulfill that niche in their academic lives can be met at J. A. Not only did students have fun, but teachers too were able to find excitement in the spontaneous happenings in day-to-day classes. Activities: 66 Sharing similar interests as a group, the students discussed and learned more about their specific interests by attending a variety of different clubs. Whether it was observing exotic animals in Biology Club or working on a poem for the Foot- prints Magazine, the important thing was that the time was spent together. Athletics: 100 - Determination, sportsmanship, and teamwork were some of the factors demonstrated in the athletic program at J. A. Al- though the outcome of the seasons can be summarized by the records of wins and losses, trophies and points, and public recognition, the true success was each athlete ' s personal gain. People: 146 A wide variety of students can be found in the halls at Adams nerds, jocks, punks, and preps. Although different in ap- pearance and personality, students were able to form a mix- ture of spirit and togetherness in times of achievement in both ' .etics and academics. Advertising: 194 Businesses of all types financially supported both John Adams and its many activities. Support came from throughout the community, ranging anywhere from Martin ' s Supermarket to Time Realty and Hull Truck Lift to the Adult Booster Club.
