A Letter From The Editors John Adams is a school of academic and athletic excellence. It is a home away from home for most students and faculty. It is a place not only to learn, but also to meet friends, encounter new experiences, and share special times. Here we have been able to strive with determination to achieve our goals throughout the year. Each of us have met our goals in one way or another, some by sitting through lectures, struggling through sprints during volleyball practice, or even organizing a dance or school func- tion. The 1986 school year has left behind a collection of contributions, achievements, and memories. What remains is not only the publicity of the NIC football cham- pionship or the biology students receiving research grants, but also each one ' s own personal gains. High school years are meant to be and always will be the most memorable times in our life — much pain, excitement, and most of all advancement into one ' s own independence. These years we spent at J. A. will soon be a memory to us. Al- though, vivid now in our minds, they will soon become pastimes. We don ' t however, realize that some of those special bonds shared with our friends will soon be lost in the shuffle in the halls of Adams. Before we know it we will look back and find a blurry sketch in the back of our minds of our high school years. It is our hope that this book will present in the future a clear picture of the best of times spent throughout the 1986 school year at John Adams.
