 SPIRIT WEEK Considering the vast number of par- ticipants in spirit week, the Homecoming activities were extremely successful this year at NHS. During spirit week, the students demonstrated that it takes all kinds by dressing in different attire for each day. Monday started the week designating beach day. Various articles of clothing were displayed such as sunglasses, ber- muda shorts and tee-shirts. On Tuesday each class distinguished itself by wear- ing specific colors, seniors wore green, juniors yellow and sophomores donned orange. Wednesday was character day and everyone came dressed as his favor- ite character. Thursday the students got relaxed on sweatsuit day. On Friday Homecoming week concluded with the traditional Red and Black day. Brian Sneed, a junior here at Nitro, displays his western attire for character day. AAAY!! The Fonz (a.k.a.

CELEBRATE WINTER This year’s Winter Formal was held at Shaw- nee Park in Dunbar. It started at 7:30 and ended at 10:30. Due to the fact that many couples went out to dinner at some of Charleston’s finest restau- rants, there were many late arrivals. It is a tradition at Nitro High to elect a Snow Queen. At the entrance of the formal, there were ballots with a list of every senior girl attending the dance. After the ballots were collected and coun- ted, the 1987 Snow Queen was announced. The second runner-up was Rena Moore and first run- ner-up was announced to be Stephanie Billings. The 1987 Winter Formal Snow Queen was Mi- chelle Layne. Congratulations Michelle! After the formal, many couples went bowl- ing, or attended the Midnight Movies dispite the fact that it was snowing. Everyone really enjoyed themselves, and it was a safe and exciting evening for Nitro High. Afterall, with a sponsor like Mrs. Norman, who could go wrong. Top Left - The sign says it all.
