Whether hands on experience of history of master- pieces enticed a student to put his best foot forward or the quest for the great unknown of discovering the creations, students had several classes to fall back on. While some students may have taken Art I to fill their fine art credit, many gained benefits from the class that were not expected. From using charcoal, pencils, clay, and paints, art students found good times and new friends. At first, all Art I did was fill the graduation requirementg but as I got more involved in the class, I realized that it wasn't just a blowoff. I've also met a lot of new peoplef' senior Christine Nelson said. Not only were the regular date and battle history classes offered but classes on the economy, social, and psy- chology behaviors Awere also available. Most found these classes an interesting change. My psychology class is more like an open discussion on topics rather than having a teacher stand and lecture to us, junior Jeff Macchi said. It's more active and fun to be in than just a 'sit-down-and- read-a-book' class, he added. Art and history were related by the fact that the master- pieces in art were similiar to those in history. Not only that Z but also the men and women who created the pieces of art were just as important as those who shaped the histories of many countries and cultures. The Mona Lisa and famous Greek sculptures were con- 7 sidered as old and timeless as the Great Pyramids of Egypt and the Eiffle Towerof Paris. The people and things that we studied in art were often found in my history book. I never realized how similiar the two classes were, freshman Clint Scott said, but they tie together in many ways. 88 ART f HISTORY , ,L , wap., r ,, 0 bf f-f- f, fi ' a w f fi A 7 2 a ' 1' if: 'W ,2 4 1- f fi -aa 5 4 , W, A4 I WW wp fm, sag, , , ,j Z 5 be x X q' 'wh ll if M fx xxsw 5 an ,Q jf WM' J V MMMWMWWWX Mis 1, '11 muwwwmai 'aww ' Wm . , my Q f 4 iv wif .5 ., vn-

Discussions were often a part of English II class as the class goes over their latest assignment with student teacher, Miss Cathy Warren. Stand p and be heard Alone, commun1cat1on can be an experzence Mother's apron strings seemed to suddenly vanish as students entered high school. Being on one's own some- times was a new experience for most, and some classes just . seemed to emphasize the arrival f of independence. Probably one of the more 7 difficult things a student did was to learn how to commu- rf nicate with others. Performing t a speech in front of others was . a hard thing to do the first time. Although I know it's good for . me, getting up in front of people can be pretty embarrassing sometimes, junior Julie Black said, especially if you start laughing and can't stop long enough to finish your speech. Writing essays, poems, and personal narratives were all a part of English class. Trans- lating thoughts and ideas into words and putting them down on paper were requirements in these classes but was not always the easiest thing to do. Thinking the thoughts was the easy partg writing them down so that they could be understood was a different story, sophomore Kevin Henderson said. Communicating with people in English was difficult enough without having to do so in a foreign language. French, German, Latin, and Spanish were the languages offered to students that gave them yet another chance to express themselves individually. The worst part of the entire year was having to sing my Oscar Mayer bologna commercial with my partner for the whole Spanish class--they had no idea what we were doing, senior Michelle Barnett said. Speech, English, and foreign language were all classes that involved expressing oneself and conveying thoughts and feelings to others around. I've learned through speech and debate that unless people understand what it is that I am trying to say, it does me no good to speak, senior Davey Cooper said. ENGLISHXLANGUAGESXSPEECH 8 7
