Pulling Together COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS Senior Class Officers take time out to “Ham It Up.” Serving our class this year were James Miller; Treasurer, Scott Dadson; President, Mandy Gaddy; Vice President, and Michelle Olio as Secretary. Last year as seniors, the class of ’85 proved not everything you hear is true. After a slow start and much criticism the seniors made a complete turnabout. Not only was there a change in the performance of the class, but there was also a change in the leadership. Last year the class received three new spon¬ sors; Mr. Kite, Mrs. Polk and Mrs. Feret and for the first time had a Board of Directors which proved to be successful. Activities in which the class spon¬ sored last year were a dance after the James Wood football game, a junior- senior powder-puff football game and a senior class play. These activities helped the seniors raise the money needed for their very special graduation ceremony. Leading the class this year was presi¬ dent, Scott Dadson; vice-president, Mandy Gaddy; secretary, Michele Olio; and treasurer, James Miller.
