Duane Ahlers Kris Allphin Rod Arndt Brad Asche Michelle Asche Seniors Cherish Memories Lakeview’s ’84 ’85 school year was a busy one for the soon to be graduated seniors. It was filled with excitement and hope for their last year. It was hard for the seniors to believe that three years of high school were completed and the fourth was on its way. Plans for the future were being made; college plans, job expectations, and the fun of graduating. Seniors soon found that their last year was a costly one. Starting out, were the senior portraits, which were very expensive, but once you’ve received them, the memory far outweighed the costs. Announcements and memory items came next, although it was all very exciting and fun to see all the different items, it all added up to a not so “fun price” at the end. They also found that they had many more respon- sibilities in addition to their class work. Measuring for caps and gowns, filling out college applications, and last but not least, getting ready for the final day. Seniors also had a good time keeping track of the “ornery” underclassmen. This gave the seniors a chance to show their “Senior Power”. Although strict rules were enforced by the school board and Mr. Schmidt, the seniors had a couple of chances to do some initiations. y4s in the years before, the seniors competed in hallways decorations and window de- signs. This year seniors placed first in hallways with the theme of “footloose”, and they placed third in the winter window design. Toward the year’s ending, Seniors wondered what was in the future, and they realized each would go their own way. But the memories of this year and the prior years will always be kept within their hearts. “The time is now to reach for more, to touch the stars and open new doors. The time is now to remember the best, yet look ahead to all the rest” 18-Seniors

Many students at Lakeview High School work at some type of part-time or full-time job during the school year. Working at fast food places, lifeguarding, and working in a clothing store are just a few examples. Why do teenagers work? To earn money? Not necessarily. Some students work to get experience in a certain field, to meet people, and to be inde- pendent, while other students work to save money for college. Movies, clothes, gas, and dates are all things that a normal high school student spends money on. Seniors are faced with the usual expenses of senior pictures, announcements, prom dress, ACT tests and college registration. Extra money comes in handy to any senior. Many students agree that working while in school can enable them to grow and learn. Working can be a fun experience. Jobs teach people responsibility and management of money. Jobs give students a chance to be with people and work with people. That is what life is all about - working and being with people. 20
