While the world took part in the XII Olympic Games and the nation celebrated its 200th birthday, Northwood also found the year 75- 76 to be a special one. The North Central Evaluation, which is done only every seven years, took place; a new assistant principal, plus three new teachers joined our staff; the long-awaited widening of Wash- ington Center Rd. was begun; and we became the proud owners of two new tennis courts. There were numerous events-large and small, personal and general-that made the year unique. In this book we at- tempt to record and reflect upon the activities, and people, and the spirit that is Northwood. Celebrities Mickey Mouse and Big Bird support the teachers as they come from a rally. learning center . . . The Learning Center is a new concept here at Northwood. It is a two-classroom unit with a staff of one teacher, Mrs. Frankinburger, and one coun- selor aide. Mr. Youngblood. The classes have one unique purpose-to assist each individual student at his or her level of operation. It is opened to all Northwood students. The Learning Center is an al- ternative to the regular class-a way to achieve goals for individuals who might need the special at- tention not provided in the regular class.

Home ec also involves childcare and clothing, nutrition and personal hygiene. Along with shop comes drafting and the diagramming of projects they ' re made.

Around November of 75 nobody would ' ve thought the volleyball team, with a present record of 1-5, would end up bringing a 2nd place trophy home. We all knew we could do it, says Coach Baker. Aided by a pep session and spir- ited fans, the girls beat Miami and Blackhawk at their first home game, ending their long losing streak. Next they went on to defeat every team that came their way, until, pulling past )efferson, Lakeside, and Blackhawk, they reached the city championship game. Although they put up a good fight, once getting 11 points in a row, the girls couldn ' t get by Fairfield. They ' d come a long way, ending with a 8-6 record. — Stretching high over the net, Dar Fawcett blocks a Lake- side spike at the tourney.

There were times that the number of healthy players had dwindled so low that there could be no full scrimmage. During some of these practices underclassmen and faculty tried to fill-in so there would be ten bodies on the floor to give some semblence of game- like conditions. The first game of the year, which we thought had been lost by six points turned out to be our only official win. That was by forfiet.

Cheerleaders get things together in the foyer. A vital part of the sports pro- gram, the cheerleaders kept spirits high throughout each of the ath- letic season. In addition to their helping to keep the spirit up, they also served as assistants to the staff with the crowd control at various contests. Throughout the school year they planned numerous pep sessions. Many of these contained skits which added humor to the school spirit concept. These girls worked under the di- rection of Captains Julie Riley and Caryn Bauermister and were spon- sored by Mrs. Stroh who served as the faculty advisor.

J A new cafeteria program made lunchtime at NJH pretty interesting at the beginning of the year. At first, there were many complaints, but once it was adjusted to, a lot of confusion that had been present in previous years was eliminated. Lunchtime provides a very necessary break from all that math, English, and science— one that play a vital role in the process of staying sane. It also serves as a study time, a time to catch up on homework, or just play a little box hockey and cards, and socialize. And, of course a time to eat!
