Evette Crouch and Mi¬ chelle Poole dressed up as fish and Shelley Eveslage inter¬ viewed them. According to Shel¬ ley, The project was on the Chesapeake Bay, and we decid¬ ed that the fish should be able to speak. ' ' Friends: those are the real essentials, no matter how they are dressed.

Right? Wrong! Riding the bus was one thing everyone dreaded. Renea Sommers waits for a friend to make the ride home more enjoyable. You get into school and fight your way to your locker. Quickly you check to make sure you have everything for class. You venture to first period, and the day creeps on... You have all the basic school sup¬ plies that everyone should have like paper, pencils, pens, textbooks, and you hope, a clear mind. The essen¬ tials were much more than just those things you could buy at the school store. Even the school bus was neces¬ sary. (What else would serve so well as the common nuisance that all high school students loved to hate?) After a while all the little extras be¬ come such a part of our daily routine that they seem to become essential ingredients themselves. Said Mrs. Penny Lake, I just can ' t live without my cup of coffee. ' ' Sandi Lupo can ' t imagine living without her Pooh Bear, lie ' s always there to help me when I ' m down, or when 1 have to give a speech ' said the Senior Class President. Making lists was another necessity for getting teachers and students alike through the day. Said Senior, Susan Goble, i even write down silly things like Get dressed ' just so I can cross them out. ' ' For others the lists meant keeping them organized for the day. People were the most essential in¬ gredient for the day You needed peo¬ ple to pass notes to, to gossip with and about, to hand in homework to, to like, to dread, to love. To para¬ phrase a song, people who need peo¬ ple are certainly the luckiest people in the world. If, as the saying goes, we have two reasons for doing everything -- the right reason, and the real reason, then getting an education may have been the right reason for coming to school, but having all those essen¬ tials was the real reason we survived it. 2 Opening Bursting Out On October 2, students crowded into the Pan¬ ther Stadium to give noisy support to the foot¬ ball team. These juniors helped their class win the first Spirit Stick. Full Advantage When flags practice was cancelled because of the rainy weather, sophmore Laura Powell took advantage of her time by finishing her Drivers Ed. homework. Opening 3 I All work and no play makes Jane a dull girl. ' ' Man does not live on bread alone. ' ' These adages were proved as students demonstrated that there was life beyond books. There were friends to visit, and shopping malls like Potomac Mills beckoned. The mall was a great place to shop, see mov¬ ies, eat, or just bum around. Of course, the stores there also provided jobs for those who needed money for car pay- Just Checking Standing on top of the juniors ' Homecoming float, Lewis Turner checks to make sure that everything is perfect. Spirited students support¬ ed their classes by helping with last minute work on the floats. ments, future education plans, or to have just in case . Poto¬ mac was also a center for life after grades. The play The Imaginary Invalid, concerts, and the fashion show offered the chance to put aside home¬ work. Other special events in¬ cluded the Miss and Mr. Poto¬ mac Pageants and dances like Prom and Homecoming. Homecoming itself was much more than the semiformal dance on Saturday, October 31. The victory over Stafford pro¬ vided an excellent release from the tensions between the class¬ es as they competed for the ti¬ tle of Most Spirited Class. After the dust settled, the seniors and juniors emerged in a tie for first place. With all the things going on, there weren ' t any dull Janes around. Everyone was busy busy busy-but it was fun. Be¬ sides, it was better than doing homework! 4 Student Life Divider Student Life Divider 5 Hang Ups To display men ' s fashions, DECA members like Laura Thieling hung ties in the showcase. 8%. -V -vx True Spirit -• Band Front member Stacy Richardson shows her spirit for the Constitution ' s bicentennial.

Jean Munday accompa¬ nied him to his Senior Prom. Living Ads The Main Event arranged for students to adver¬ tise their formalwear. Ricky Graham and Mike Basso wore tuxedos to school before the Prom. Alone in the Crowd Simply ignoring the other couples on the crowded dance floor, Greg Craine and Jody Agatone are enthralled by each other ' s compa¬ ny. Scared Stiff Concerned for students ' safety, SADD arranged for a representative of Safety and Survival, Inc. to give a thought-provoking lecture about drinking and driving. 6 Prom Moonlight Magic The flowers were ordered. The tux was rented. The shoes were dyed to match the gown. Dinner reservations were made. And, of course, a special person was asked, Would you like to go to the Prom with me?” However, no matter how much preparation was made. Prom night found nearly every¬ one with the case of the jitters. What if Gourmet Galore Trying out the various goodies set out by the Milton ' s staff, Stacey Reid helps Rob Willis to a strawberry. the tux didn ' t fit after all? What if din¬ ner found its way to someone ' s lap? The Junior Class had even more to worry about. Starting the year in debt, they struggled through Homecoming and car washes while dealing with se¬ niors ' comments. It seemed like we wouldn ' t have a Prom at all, said Al¬ ice Kalaskas. But, the Class of ' 88 managed not only to raise the money, but also to put on a Prom they could boast about. Said Debbie Jarvis, We made $1300 profit, so that ' s the best part. Finally, the big night arrived: May 1, 1987. It was time for elegance, ro¬ mance, and Moonlight Magic . The band, bra Ka Jax played late into the night as couples swayed on the dance floor. Said Mrs. Susan Smith, Every¬ thing went wonderfully. Royalty Prom Queen Wendy Alachnowitz and Prom Ring Leonard Williams cheerfully inspect their court. Taking a Break Sitting this one out. Senior, Bobby Costa and Junior, Penny Lohman, chat about the eve¬ nings events. Prom 7 In their senior year, when they had their last chance to prove that they were on top, the sophomore class won Spirit week. But in the end it didn ' t matter. Being on top came with the territory. After all, they were the SENIORS, the class of 1987. The seniors had always had privi- liges like the senior lunch shift and the senior parking lot, but there were complaints that underclassmen were encroaching on once-sacred territory. Finally the privilege that was truly a seniors-only event arrived: Senior Week. Members of the class partici¬ pated in various dress-up days, one of which was Career Day. As students dressed up to show themselves in twenty years, married couples, Ram- Words, Words, Words As Dr. William M. Anderson, Jr., Mr. Robert Fer- rebee, Mr. Gerald Cleary, and Mrs. Maureen Caddigan listen, Wendy Floltzman delivers the valedictory address. Salutatorian Angelique Wangner and Dr. Anderson also gave speeches. bos, welfare moms, street walkers, plumbers and even a priest or two roamed the halls. Beach Day brought out the beach bum in each of them. The last day of Senior Week was tru¬ ly special, as the class left for Ben Lomond Park. Baseball, frisbee, vol¬ leyball, bumper boats, a waterslide, food, music got the seniors together to enjoy their last school-sponsored bash. Said Steve Reza, I loved the scenery. And joked Jeff Sauntry, I found the picnic recreationally stimu¬ lating. But perhaps the best part of the day was when Assistant Principal Aaron Jordan was tossed into the bumper boat pool by students like Dion Gore, who got a chance to make a big splash when he was thrown in. Finally, yet all of a sudden, their four year stay ended. All that was left was the graduation exercises, which were held on June 17. Seniors sat in the hot sun, trying to pay attention to speeches by Valedictorian Wendy Holtzman, Salutatorian Angelique Wangner, and Dr. William M. Ander¬ son, Jr., who had been invited by the class to be their speaker. As always, teachers were there to oversee every¬ thing, including when the seniors filed up to receive their diplomas. Said Kim Schneider, David Kite and Jan Polk were great help in running the line smoothly. Then suddenly, it was over. They were no longer seniors, but graduates. In the words of Julie Delfox , On to the real world! Pomp and Circumstance Underclassmen members of the symphinic and concert bands take a break during the ceremo¬ ny. The bands, directed by Brain Sachlis, pro¬ vided the music for Graduation. The orchestra, directed by Larry Casey, played at Baccalaureate. 8 The Class of 1987 The Main Thing I ) IgpipF j in 1 if — till AnJr 1 -w v 7 ' w l k m I Of course, the main reason for the class of 1987 to sit through the evening s heat was to receive their diplomas.

My nametag says god. ' It ' s really classic, but I ' m not allowed to wear it because it ' s sacriligious or some¬ thing, said Little Caesar ' s employee Michelle Underwood. Some may have said that the love of money was the root of all evil, but Potomac students knew that the pursuit of wealth was the only valid reason to wear a name- tag that proclaimed things like Erol ' s. Associate. Committed to Ex¬ cellence, or ”AMC Theaters Wel¬ come You. Students who worked not only got tired of sayings concerning customer service, but they also had their fill of cliches like The customer is always right. I can ' t stand it when customers keep trying to to tell us that certain things are on sale when anyone can see that they ' re not! commented Stephanie Dunn, a Leading Labels employee. Setting Up His job at the Giant rood Store in Dale City usually kept him near the pharmacy, but John Lawson also had to stack merchandise like fa¬ cial tissues. Sneaking Around Part of Julie Callantine ' s job at the Hike outlet was to assist customers in finding the perfect pair of shoes, whether they were for basketball, biking, or just sneaking around. I hate it when I ' m turned around trying to get someone ' s popcorn and they keep telling me their order, said AMC Theater concessionist Lisa Anderson. It always seemed that customers were the only thing that stood be¬ tween having the perfect job and an OK job. Said David Wolter, What al¬ ways bothered me about my job was when people wanted to buy a part for a boat and they didn ' t know what it was called, what it looked like, or even where it was supposed to go! I love Erol ' s-people are in a great mood because their attitude is Hey, I ' ve got the day off and I ' m gonna watch movies! said Ann Gillette, who worked at Erol ' s Video Club. But there are always those people who come up and ask you. What ' s good? ' What can you say? she continued. But of course, there was always a juicy paycheck as a reward for dealing with all those pesky customers. Pay- check?! I haven ' t even had time to cash mine yet! ' ' cried Stephanie Dunn. 10 Working Putting It Together Senior Ken Odom hangs shirts for display in the Big 8r Tall menswear store. Of course, he also had to help people put together clothes for the perfect image. wmm HI ■ ' si V • ' ■. ■: ' € ■ mb Officework Although her official position at AMC Theaters was Concessionist Supervisor,” Lisa Ander¬ son often found herself typing reports to divi¬ sion headquarters.

Working 11 wsammammm S choolhouse Rock Fifties Fever Hit Potomac In 1987 The penny loafers and saddle shoes were brought out of the closet. Poodle skirts and letter sweaters were dug out of the attic. And students battled furiously for the title, Most Spirited Class. ' ' Competition was so fierce stu¬ dents became more concerned about which class won what during Spirit Week, than finding out who was in the Homecoming court or how the foot¬ ball team fared against the Stafford Indians or even what graduates would drop by to see old friends. Said senior Larry Jordan, 1 knew we ' d win the game, so I was more worried about the seniors winning. As far as the football game was con¬ cerned, the students didn ' t have too much to worry about. Though the score was a very close 21 to 20, the Panthers won the Friday night game. (Cont ' d on p.15) Good Enough The Class of 1988 hadn ' t been known for its school spirit before 1987, so the seniors were overjoyed about at least tying for Most Spirited Class with the juniors. np . wp� ... 12 Homecoming Swamped Sophomores Theresa Theroux, Kristen Hay¬ den, Angie Deck, and Tracy Jarvis got the priv¬ ilege of putting together the spirit links that hung in the cafeteria throughout Spirit Week. An incredible 70,954 links were sold at five cents each. Glass-supportive students pur¬ chased them in hopes that their class would end up with the most. The Junior Class won after buying 30,443 links. ■Mrs Indian Without a Cause Playing the part of the hapless Indian, Andy Best waves to the crowd before the 3-D panther smashes out of the drive-in movie onto him on the senior ' s float. Acceptance For the first time, there was a tie for Most Spirited Class. Presidents Sandi Lupo, senior, and Qretchen Moss, junior, hold the plaque the winners are engraved on. The two cheerleaders accepted the award from SCA President Jenny Beyer. Rock Around the Clock Freshman Eric Fels plays baritone at the bon¬ fire. The Marching Band was an essential part of the Homecoming festivities in leading the pa¬ rade, performing a halftime show, playing fan¬ fares for the introduction of the Homecoming court, and, of course, helping lead the crowd in cheers during the football game. Homecoming 13 At the Hop A crowd of friends, including Kim Creighton John McHugh, Dave Gardziel, Dave Darling Todd Sampson, and Mike Catlett, let loose or Saturday evening at the Homecoming dance. 14 Homecoming finishing Up Sophomores Maura Barrett and Cindy Gruben- mann put the last few touches on their class ' s dummy before he is tossed into the bonfire.

The Bitter End The Senior ' s first place bonfire dummy, assem¬ bled by Cricket Mees, met its end on Thursday, October 29. The rest of the Stafford football team, however, met their match the following evening, when the Panthers won, 21 to 20. Penny Loafers and Bobby Socks Impersonating Elvis and a diehard fan, juniors Karl Schwanda and Heather Erie dance on their float. Juniors ' hearts stopped when the truck under their float stalled. At the last minute, another truck came to the rescue. Visiting Royalty Sitting on a car once again, graduate Qina Gom- bar attends the Homecoming game. Gina was the 1986 Homecoming queen and had the hon¬ or of crowning Veronica Barr. (Cont ' d from p.12) Once the court was introduced at halftime, Andy Yentsch and Veronica Barr were honored as King and queen.The 1986 Homecoming queen, Qina Qombar, passed her title and ti¬ ara on to Veronica. After ages, Mr. David Kite finally an¬ nounced the results of the Spirit Week. For the first time in Potomac ' s history, there was a tie between the classes of 1988 and 1989. The classes took the opportunity to take pride in the individual events that they won. All Dressed Up At the dance, Susie Kong compliments Andy Wynne on his tie. Semi-formal dance ' ' meant different things to different people. Girls wore everything from sweater ensembles to formal gowns. Guys ' clothes varied from sweaters and slacks to three-piece suits. Said senior Debbie Jarvis, All 1 was worried about was us winning the float competition. And we did! ' ' Although many students were an¬ gry about Spirit Week ending in a tie, others felt it wasn ' t so bad after all. Said senior Andy Best, A tie in Home¬ coming was the best thing that could have happened. It helped ease hos¬ tile feelings that had built up between the juniors and seniors. ' ' Also, a whopping 70,454 spirit links were sold at five cents apiece. Said SCA president Jenny Beyer, The money raised from the spirit link sales goes into the Student Government Fund. This is used for two SCA scholarships, donations to charities, and to put on schoolwide activities. ' ' The Homecoming Dance ended Spirit Week with a touch of class. How¬ ever, the event suffered, as the juniors had been more concerned with Spirit Week. Said Junior Class president Gretchen Moss before the dance, We feel pretty confident about the dance, but we have been working harder on winning Spirit Week. ' ' Commented ju¬ nior Stephanie Dunn, The dance was a real letdown after all the excitement of Spirit Week. ' ' Homecoming 15 Panther Spirit One of the major highlights of the first pep rally was the appearance of the embodiment of the Panther Spirit. Mr. John Jenkins shows his sup¬ port as he cheers on Lee Bennett. It Worked! Varsity football players not only boosted school spirit at the pep rallly, they also defeated the Stonwall Jackson Raiders that evening. |� | fjT L 1 a Sk m .4 ; ’ jsv Ul i £ Ri Doing Their Best Preview Willette West, Nacho Alleyne, and Penny Morris demonstrate senior spirit at the pep rally. The class of ' 88 tried their best, only to be out- yelled by the juniors. Yung Joo Lee plays bells as the Marching Band performs during the Pep Rally. Playing a few of their selections gave students a brief preview of the halftime show. 16 Pep Rally Being True The biggest reason I even show up at the pep rallies is to see Mr. Jenkins strut his stuff. When Mr. Jen¬ kins is on, the whole place roars ' said junior Chelliey Brent. Mr. John Jenkins was at it again, this time dressed in a blue outfit and a lot of makeup, lie was the Panther Spirit, the embodiment of all the noise the students made as they cheered for their football team and for school spirit in general. I really went wild, said junior Su¬ san Emmons, ' it s a real chance and a real pleasure to show all your emo¬ tion. For the first time, students ' spirit was to be demonstrated in a more organized manner, as the four classes competed for the coveted Sprit Stick. SCA President, senior Jenny Beyer led each of the classes in cheering, and the noisiest class won the right to have their spirit stick displayed in the main lobby. The big, loud Class of 1989 won each time. Commented junor Aaron Swenson, The juniors won; that ' s what ' s important. But senior Sean Riordan disagreed. The seniors rule the pep rallies. We might not be the loudest, but we re the craziest. According to many, however, win¬ ning the spirit competition was sec¬ ondary to supporting the athletes ' Hamming It Up Cheering for their class are seniors Candace Bouslough, Alana Jacobsen, Kristi Anderson, Renee Brown, and Susan Zovak. morale. Said defensive lineman for the football team, David Arnold, It ' s important to know the school ' s be¬ hind you, and we knew it. We wouldn ' t have won some of the games we did without that extra push from the student body. That extra push was what the teams wanted. Whether or not your class won didn ' t really matter in the end. Pep rallies were a way to show school spirit and a way to get the winning points on our side of the scoreboard. As the song said, pep rallies were a way to be true to your school. Pep Rally 17 Reporting Changes Wondering if their QPAs had changed.

All of us remember singing along with Big Bird and hermit the Frog when we were little. However, we didn ' t realize until high school just how important all those little letters ; were. As soon as we stepped into PSHS, we were told to avoid 1SS and OSS at all costs. What could be worse than spending an entire day cooped up in a little room, not being able to talk? It i was enough to make one go AWOL. Or what about missing a day of school and getting zeroes for all the assign¬ ments we missed? Unexcused ab¬ sences put holes in a decent GPA - PDQ! GPA ' s were probably the biggest reason to try to succeed. For those with college plans, class rank and ex¬ tra-curricular activities (FBLA, any¬ one?) were all-important. It didn ' t hurt to be in the HHS, either. A good re¬ cord at PHS secured us a place in UVa, UCLA, VMI, or JMU. If we were really outstanding, we could even try for a ROTC or HROTC to pay for our BA. The armed forces were a way of life for many PHSers, too. Among the Op T-shirts, there were many USMC sweatshirts. Being close to both D.C. and MCDEC meant that lots of parents were in the mililtary. Many students were also considering the Army, navy. Air Force, or Marines for a career choice. But in order to get through high school to get those jobs in the un, FBI, or even the CIA, we had to pass test after endless test. In our fresh¬ man year, we had DAT s and in our sophomore year the PSAT ' s and the competency tests were thrust upon us. Going into our junior year, we were surprised with our Final SRA test. Then we dealt with the stress-filled SAT ' s that colleges would base accep¬ tance on. SCA also touched everyone ' s lives. The officers wrote a Constitution lay¬ ing down the structure of the student government. Their efforts heightened school spirit. Hard classes, tough teachers, and massive amounts of homework were enough to make anyone give up. The only reason that many of us lived through the hectic pace of high school was to enjoy the weekends. About halfway through Monday we were all wanting to say TGIF, ASAP. There were clubs for every interest, too. FHA, FBLA, DECA, VICA, ICT, HHS, and SHHS raised money, had meetings, and entered mew members. With all the letters floating around, we needed all that practice that Big Bird and the rest of the Sesame Street gang put us through. How I know my ABC ' s. Hext time won ' t you sing with me?

' ' The after¬ noon announcements often included cancellations and postponments of activities. Very often, the disappoint¬ ing cancellations were made due to thunderstorms or any other kind of inclement weather. Faces would then either pout or smile, and often com¬ ments as But I can ' t make it tomor¬ row! ' ' or Canceled again! ' ' were heard from all directions. Weather not only played a role in afterschool activities, but also in moods. When dark clouds hovered over the school, everyone felt that cloud would burst at any time and to¬ tally destroy a perfect day, so no one dared to flash a smile, much less be in a good mood. At the sight of threatening clouds, 1 try to Find ex¬ cuses for sleeping in for the morn¬ ing, ' ' commented freshman Carrie Yacono. Although weather often ruined many things, it could also make peo¬ ple smile in surprise when the sun suddenly sprang out of the clouds af¬ ter a week of rain. Sunny weather keeps me in a good mood! ' ' ex¬ claimed freshman David Baldwin. It ' s Freezing In Here! With below freezing temperatures outside, tem¬ peratures inside were greatly affected. Students like junior Xzabier Jackson could be seen bun¬ dled up throughout the school. 20 Mom nature Defense Systems Go!

Inti¬ mate Eve, specializing in loungewear, supplied her outfit. 22 Fashion Show I Oiar ir limes Let s Talk All ready to go in her casual Gitano outfit, ju¬ nior Angie Hall makes arrangements for her night out over the phone. Whether it was a change of seasons or just hours, there was a change of clothes for everything. It became a major decision every morning: would it be a classy wool skirt and a nice blouse? dress pants, shirt, and tie? rugby shirt and Levi ' s? Or would be something really comfortable, like those famous Hike sweats? Whatever the decision, it had to be stylish, now, and you. To show all the latest trends that appeared in nearby stores and there¬ fore in classrooms and halls, DECA members organized the second annu¬ al fashion show. The show took the audience through the phases of a typical day, showingjust the right out¬ fit for every occasion. It was great to help organize the fashion show for DECA and to audi¬ tion the models we chose, said se¬ nior DECA member, Cindy Shugart. Models had auditioned weeks be¬ fore and had spent what seemed to be ages practicing walking gracefully up and down the stage every day after school. In addition to the models, the DECA members also spent afternoons working on the backdrop, displaying the theme with many different kinds of timepieces. Effort was also put into getting sponsors to donate outfits for the models to wear. Several stores in Potomac Mills were represented, as were other neighborhood shops. For their donations, the stores were rec¬ ognized by the emcees when they named the models and described their outfits. All the hard work done by DECA members and models alike paid off when, during Activity Period on Tuesday, December 8, students who had passes were admitted to the auditorium to see the show, Rock Around the Clock. In Charge Senior Penny Morris and junior Kirstin Walsh led the ceremonies with their descriptions of the out¬ fits being worn.

The money the juniors raised went toward Prom. Over There Decorating the cafeteria for the first Morp dance ever were members of the SCA Board, sopho¬ more Tracy Jarvis and senior Debbie Jarvis. Beating The Blahs Booooring. It was cold outside, so we couldn ' t rely on summer pastimes to chase away the blahs. Cruising around with the windows down and the stereo blasting just didn ' t cut it in thirty degree weather. The SCA decided to battle. Our Win¬ ter Festival, complete with dress-up days, was planned for the week of February 8 through 12. End-of-the- week festivities included a pep rally, which featured a six-minute senior- faculty basketball game, and a Morp. Morp--prom spelled backwards-was a new concept for Potomac. Basically, it was exactly backwards to the big May event. Girls asked guys for dates, or people just went stag ' ' or with a group of friends. Couples were also encouraged to dress as much alike as possible and they could pretend to be married for the evening. Most impor¬ tantly, dinner was at McDonald ' s, and there was no formalwear allowed. Sharing the week with Winter Festival was Valentines Day. As always Val-o- grams were sent out on Friday, Febru¬ ary 12. Try as the SCA might, they couldn ' t raise as much spirit as they did during Homecoming. Although posters ad¬ vertising Morp plastered the halls and announcements about dress-up days were heard daily, no one seemed real¬ ly aware of what was going on until a few students braved the cold in shorts for Beach Day. Signs of spring weren ' t far in com¬ ing. The Science Fair exploded into the library on February 24 when stu¬ dents dragged in their projects and set them up for display. The Mr. Poto¬ mac Pageant and the Foreign Lan¬ guage Festival were just around the corner, too. I hate winter because everything is so dead and confined indoors. So I just sit through the winter and wait for spring to come ' said senior Joely Hebert. Ups and Downs Getting some help at decorating the cafeteria, senior Cricket Mees instructs Ms. Wanda Peter¬ sen how to hang crepe paper. Winter Festivities 25 Ouch! Ho matter how hard we tried, we were always getting an owie.” Some problems were serious enough to get us on the operating table--and then on crutches. I hate it when I get hurt playing soccer, because the first thing every¬ one asks is. What happened?” ' said junior Steve Lacey. The only advantage found in being disabled” was being able to leave class five minutes early. If a lower limb was hurt, we could use the eleva¬ tor to get upstairs. Although it felt like heaven crutching down the deserted halls while everyone else struggled through math class, it wasn ' t so nice once we were caught in the hall amid throngs of able-bodied students. I loved getting all the attention and getting to leave early, but once I got caught in the hall when classes got out and 1 got trampled,” said se¬ nior Joely Hebert. It was nice when everyone smoth¬ ered us with attention, but nothing felt better than tossing aside those crutches, casts, and band-aids. Said senior Travis Burks, nothing felt bet¬ ter than getting my cast off.” Agony In a rush to avoid being tardy and getting sent to the auditorium, senior Susan Qoble bashed her hand on an etagere, resulting in much pain. Braced After hurting her leg playing soccer, junior Shel¬ ley Eveslage was required to wear a brace for a few months after surgery. 26 Injuries Bearing It Ignoring her hurt arm, Stella Moore concen¬ trates on finishing her fashion design assign¬ ment in art class.

Playing school sports was a change of pace for Tomas Waldemarsson, since he didn ' t have the opportunity to play for his school in Sweden. Hew Experiences Working on newspaper was one of the many experiences for Minna niemi of Finland. She wrote a column about her homeland in each issue. Comug Together Life is so fast in America and the teenagers are so independent,” said Maria Lusung of the Philippines. There were also changes in the school system for the exchange students. I find the school system here in America is much easier than the one we have in horway, and also most par¬ ents think of kids of 17 or 18 as chil¬ dren, but in horway you ' re separate from your parents,” said Rappi Thor- steinsson. The students learned many cus¬ toms to take back home with them. They learned about the great junk food to eat, places to go, and just about every other custom we threw upon them. American food is deadly, said Minna niemi, who was used to fish and lighter foods of her native horway. There was some adjustment for the host families, too. Speaking more slowly and trying to coordinate the family ' s meetings, sports, and jobs with their activities was one of the ob¬ stacles to overcome. Probably the hardest thing was try¬ ing to define American slang to them, but all in all, it ' s just like having a brother or sister--onIy you don ' t fight as much!” said senior Susan Goble. A school year seemed to be never- ending, but for the foreign exchange students and host families, those nine months weren ' t long enough. 28 Foreign Exchange Born to Shop Spending the afternoon at Potomac Mills ex¬ change students Monica Maside and Maria Lu- sung check out American fashions. Showing Off Showing Senior Mike Lacey some pictures of home, Rappi Thorsteinsson decided to let him see the real culture of Norway. Foreign Exchange 29 What made us curse rain, wind, snow, himidity, chlorine, and mirrors daily? It was those pesky dead cells: hair. Even guys became concerned with hair styles; some highlighted it, col¬ ored it, let it grow, or got it all cut off. I know for a fact most guys spend more time in front of the mirror than girls do! said Mr. David Kite. With mousse, gel, hairspray, blow-dryers, curling irons, and benders one could do anything. If one wasn ' t allowed to change his or her haircolor perma¬ nently, colorwash or hair paint could put some pizazz into their mop. I just keep changing my style until I find what looks best, said senior Michelle Underwood. In the long run it might have been worth it but the frustration never stopped. The time spent sometimes set trends or just made one stand out from the crowd. The way 1 look at it, if other people don ' t like it, then they won ' t do it so I ' m the only one like that and I be¬ come a special person because I had the courage to be different, said Alex Morse. In order to be different, junior Sherry Sweeney bleached, shaved, trimmed, and even let some of her hair grow long. Wait It Out! Waiting patiently, sophomore Pat Driscoll en¬ dures the prickly feeling of getting his hair cut. Close-cut Junior Billy Masters models the three aspects of a sure-fire haircut: spiky top, almost shaved sides, and a curly back. ' Really Black-For How! Dressed Up [ Mop never looking like everyone else, senior Alex Morse often dyed his naturally blond hair differ¬ ent shades. A dressy outfit wasn ' t complete without dressy hair. Junior Stephanie Dunn put a fancy bow in her hair to complete her outfit. Looking up from his government assignment, senior Ronnie Patrick grins from under his long, highlighted hair. 30 Hair . . . The Wet Look mam Fresh Check ' ' Although he kept his hair cut very short, senior Willy Wright was often near a mirror, doing a fresh check to be sure his hair looked good. Decked out for a night on the town, fash¬ ion show models Jennifer Theroux and Kevin Piggot have hairstyles to match their clothes. TALL! Junior Melanie Westover boasts hair that stands 11 1 2 inches straight up! Classmates j noted that she measured it daily. As always, ! hair was a form of self-expression. Reading a book before art class begins, senior Ian Doiran displays the hair style that years of swimming gave him. Learning Experience Washing the hair of a Gar-Field student, Leslie Singleton uses the techniques she learned. At¬ tending cosmetology class daily taught stu¬ dents how to care for hair. The Many Uses of Dcra f ells Non-Procrastination Hard at work in study hall, junior Adina Horo¬ witz completes her assignment. Study hall helped battle procrastination attempts. Deadline Crush With only ten days till deadline, yearbookers kelly Craig and Hichole Holley struggle to finish pages amid pizza, candy, and soda. Check It Out Playing checkers in Mr. John Kittell ' s study hall, Brian Andrews and Shawn Blasi put aside their homework for more enjoyable things. Pro re¬ lation Bogged Down Trying to finish a paper in one evening, most of Ms. Charlotte Stultz ' s AP Govern¬ ment class invaded the public library to research and write. No Problem ... ? All that was left was the bibliogra¬ phy, the notecards, and the outline. And, of course, the final draft. When was it due, anyway? The day after to¬ morrow?!? Oops. According to Webster ' s, procrasti¬ nate ' ' means to put off something until a future time; postpone or defer taking action. It had many forms, like staying up late to type or cram¬ ming for tests. Said senior Aaron Speca, I sometimes feel like an owl because I ' m awake at night and doz¬ ing during the day. Procrastination had its non-academic side, too. Like waiting till mid-April to get a tux for Prom, said senior John Driscoll. There ' s something good on TV right now. I ' ll do my homework later. Junior Joo Lee had a typical reason to put assignments off to the last min¬ ute. Many students followed senior Cricket Mees ' s logic. If I don ' t know it now, I won ' t know it after an hour or so of cramming. Some resorted to doing housework to keep themselves away from their desks. Said senior Stephanie Collier, Before a term pa¬ per is due, you ' d never recognize my room because it ' s so clean. Doing things late was, of course, better than doing nothing at all. The less time there was available, the fast¬ er things got done. Students learned how to read a chapter of history, think about math homework, and (sort of) pay attention to a science lecture. Said senior Claudia Gibb, Seniors are always the best procrastinators because they ' ve done it for so long. Procrastinp L; ' . . . FOR FRIENDSHIP! The cheerleaders who had led the crowd at the basketball game were gone, as was the noisy crowd itself. Athletic Boosters Club parents, who had been selling refreshments, closed up shop. Pantherettes and Pep Band members alike were gone. The athletes and coaches had deserted the lock¬ er rooms. Even the custodians who cleaned up the lollipop sticks. Coke cups, and confetti had left for the weekend. The On Purpose On Nerd Day of Spirit Week 1897, junior Mike Murphy, junior Ted liupka, sophomore Ryan Rotteman, and senior Cliff Dodson compare calculus notes and pocket protectors. The Se¬ nior Class won in the dress-up days competition. gates were down, doors were locked, and only emergency lights were lit. All that was left was the huge brick building and its surround¬ ing parking lots and playing fields. From the silence of it all, one could never guess that, during the week, this was the daily meeting place for friends, and the center of events like Homecoming and Winter Festi¬ val. The silent hallways did not speak of the many clubs that based meetings, activities, and elections here. There was no evidence that this place was where students succeeded at everything from AP English tests to basketball. With Monday ' s coming, life breathed back into Potomac. Things were back to normal once 7:45 came around and students rushed to first period. All those people were essential to making Potomac the Home of the Panthers.

Senior Dana Van Metre said, The best part aobut being an aide in the office is that you don ' t do a lot of work. You talk a lot and get to know the administrators.” Teachers found themselves with a lack of time to do things before the grading period was over so they relied on students for help. Many students chose to be a great help to a well liked teacher rather than taking a study hall and being bored for 55 minutes a day, every day. Class of 1988 51 Wirh new administration priveleges, reappeared With the new principle, Mrs. Ann Lockett, came the rebirth of a once- missed tradition-senior privilages. Old privilages were modified and new ones were added. The senior parking lot was improved by having Mr. John Compel stand at the entrance to make sure no juniors parked there. Mew privilages were that the seniors would receive their yearbooks a day early and that they received half-price tickets to school events.

Going away to college was an even scarier thought... kinda. But we tried to think of all the good things about college and the REAL WORLD. We thought of the day of Graduation when it would be all over . . . except for beach week!!! The never-ending dream we dwelt on was throwing our caps in the air when we were declared the 1988 grad¬ uates of Potomac. I can ' t wait til graduation.

Well, you have practially ruined the day so far; try again by making it on time to second period. After you go to your locker, and have allowed yourself a little time to stop and chat with friends, you start to journey to class.

A lot of Panthers had a little Panther or a big Pan¬ ther who attended school with them. At times it was a real hassle, but it was all in the family. Underclassmen 67 Mew Traditions I like breaking the tradi¬ tion of getting class rings during our junior year and getting them at the end of our sophomore year ' said junior Heather Schwetje. The Class of 1989 was the first in school history to receive their rings as soph¬ omores. They arrived just eleven days before the end of school. I felt that it was good to give us our rings early. It gives us a chance to wear them two full years instead ofjust one and a half ' said junior David Wolter. Added junior Kim Saunders, I ' m happy that I get more wear for the money my mom spent. ' ' Watching the sopho¬ mores get their rings also lifted the spirits of the class behind them. Sophomore Maura Barret said, I can ' t wait until 1 get my ring. I was so jealous last year that they had theirs, it really made me want mine. ' ' For the Moment The tradition was that couples traded class rings, as did juniors Bill Masters and Cindy Hall.

Athletes found their lockers decorated with crepe paper and spirit¬ ed good luck notes on days of important games. Like¬ wise, birthdays were occa¬ sions to find a decorated locker. Birthday boys and girls had to deal with bal¬ loons, signs, and even silly string between classes. Photos and assignments personalized them. We cursed them as often as we appreciatied them.

YUCK. You climbed on. At least the ride offered an opportu¬ nity to catch up on home¬ work. You got to school and the ride was soon forgotten. Cheese The afternoon bell re¬ minded you how you had to return home. You made your way out the door. Hordes of yellow monsters loomed before you.

I ' ve never heard of anything like it, said freshman Jason Banks. The new rules from the school board stiffened the penalty for being late to class. Instead of an in¬ school-suspension after six tardies it was an F for the grading period. As a result a lot of students cleaned up their act. Last year 1 could stroll to class, this year, no way! ' ' said junior Chad Weyant. Getting to class on time was hard, with using the bathroom, unsticking your locker, and the trip through the overcrowded halls. Students are always looking for an exception to the policy, said Mrs. Patri¬ cia Emmons, but we don ' t make the rules, we just en¬ force them. The number of tardies did drop severely since the new policy was put into ef¬ fect, said Assistant Princi¬ pal Tom Gill. The tardy poli¬ cy definitely showed signs of taking effect.

' ' Dressing alike went out in the fourth grade, so it was sometimes easier to distin¬ guish one twin from anoth¬ er. But what happened when they borrowed each others clothes? One thing 1 like about having a twin is that we can wear the same clothes. Sometimes people confuse us because they ' ve seen my sister in an outfit that I ' m wearing and they think I ' m her, said Carla Galliani. Teachers often confused twins too. Art teacher Caro¬ lyn Leggett said, 1 had one in my fifth period class art class and his brother in my sixth period. Without even realizing it I asked the one if he had art twice a day. Then 1 realized they were TWINS! So with this we wathced more carefully not to make the mistake of wrongly identifying a twin. Which One?

What ' s your reason for getting home from a date 20 minutes late?...for being 10 minutes late for class or work?... for breaking a date- ?...for not getting your homework done ??? Excuses range from the ridiculous to the matter of fact truth. From Mark beater ' s, A Martian took my home¬ work , to Shirley McGann ' s, I have too much home¬ work tonight; I can ' t make it , arejust two examples of the wide range of excuses we used. The most popular excuse for being late to class was My locker wouldn ' t open and I had to find Mr. Jordan to help me open it. Running a close second was The bathroom was locked and I had to go to the other end of the building to find an open one. Ho matter how original the excuses, when we over¬ used them, bosses, par¬ ents, and teachers soon caught on. Signing In Arriving to school late, Amie Le- Brun had to sign in with Mrs.Mis- enko.

Their purpose for this gath¬ ering was to scream until their faces turned blue. The second pep rally of the year was to take place soon and the juniors were deter¬ mined to keep the spirit stick for a second time in a row. The classes started to scream and in the end the juniors would do it again: win the spirit stick for a sec¬ ond time in a row. It ' s great to know that our class can come together and have what it takes to beat the seniors ' said Steve Lacey. The class of ' 89 is proba¬ bly on of the most spirited classes to enter Potomac. Thejuniors actually tied the seniors in spirit competi¬ tion last year. I think that the reason that thejuniors are more spirited is be¬ cause we all stick togeth¬ er! ' ' said junior Jenni Maes.

Which way is Biology?” were common words of freshman. They were the ones who were lost or con¬ fused - or both. I almost died when Mr. Dyer told me there were five sets of stairs - I thought there were just the middle ones!,” said one newcomer. Being a fresh¬ man isn ' t that bad except for the fact that upperclass¬ men label you as immature because you ' re in the ninth grade,” commented Lisa Beall. Those who were in the ninth grade certainly wouldn ' t be there forever. The thought Nike the most about being a freshman is that I know in nine months it will be over and I ' ll be a graduated freshman,” said David Baldwin. A few jokes and wrong turns later, the Class of ' 91 would no long¬ er be classified as freshman but as sophomores.

Many times it had to be used for research. As fresh¬ man Christi McGee put it, We don ' t use the library by choice, but since teachers desire certain assignments, it is helpful. For those who weren ' t hungry (and for some who were), lunch provided valu¬ able time to Finish home- The Search work. Sometimes I used the library during lunch to finish homework that ' s due later in the day, agreed sophomore Monica Short and junior Karen Beyer. Even with good inten¬ tions in mind, sophomore Susie Kong admitted, So¬ cializing sometimes gets in the way. If you wanted to escape in a good book, needed to do a little research, or desired a quiet place to study, you could always check out the library. Rod McLaughlin takes advantage of the card catalog, a reliable source for finding most books in the library.

Sports also took up a lot of time. Said sophomore Scott Ford, We play street hockey on weekends. It ' s not really organized but there are a lot of teams from different developments. Sometimes plans didn ' t work out because of restric¬ tion, bad weather, or the lack of a ride. So under¬ classmen relied on the T.V., radio, and telephone for en¬ tertainment, too. But what¬ ever the circumstances, they were always on the lookout for something new to do.. Underclassmen 99 Middle Ages It ' s like being the mid¬ dle child. You ' re not the youngest or the oldest or even close to being an up¬ perclassman. As a sopho¬ more you ' re just waiting around to climb another step on the ladder ' said sophomore Liz Hines. Being a tenth grader wasn ' t the worst thing to be in high school (that was be¬ ing a freshman!), but the sophomores sometimes felt trapped. They were stuck right in the middle. Sophomores like Ray Bol¬ ton saw things in a different light. As 1 see it, most of us are just hurrying along to get this over with so we can have our year of glory--Our SEMIOR year. ' ' The thought of being the ultimate, a senior, was the light at the end of the tun¬ nel. All that was left to do then was to pass down the tradition of being trapped in the Middle Ages to the next class of sophomores.

Most students felt totally loaded down with what seemed like tons of home¬ work they had every night. Once all the geometry theo¬ rems were memorized, there was still vocabulary for World Studies. The biol¬ ogy test had to be studied for and the English paper had to be written, too. ho ' matter how students tried. it never failed that there was always at least one sub¬ ject that made them suffer through that dreaded night¬ time activity. It seems to me that for the first half of the day I ' ll have no homework-then boom! My last three classes give me hours ' worth!” ex¬ claimed sophomore Karen Bahorich. It was even worse when you missed a couple days of school. It was heaven while you were at home, watching your soaps and feeling only a little bit sick¬ ly. But once you came back to school, it all caught up to you. You suddenly felt many times worse than you had the day before as piles and even more piles of homework were dumped on you. It ' s really not even worth staying at home, said ju¬ nior Julie Callentine. Homework was a pain, but, in the long run, it helped. Adults insisted it built character. Besides, if we would have had to do all that work at school, we would have been here forever! Underclassmen 103 Being Positive Teachers and students get to know one another Being an adult and having survived my ado¬ lescent years, I am expe¬ rienced in life and have an opportunity to lessen student pain by explain¬ ing situations to them from different points of view. It takes time and the first step is getting in- volved, said Mr. A1 Eaton. In many cases, teach¬ ers felt that being a good teacher meant being a friend, too. I think the secret to teaching is letting kids know you care about them and that you are willing to help them in any way you can, said Ms. Lorraine Palumbo. Whether working in the weight room or going on weekend trips, such as Model OAS in D.C.,or publicataions workshops at UVA, teachers and students alike found that having common interests brought them together. For example, Mrs. Faith Hol¬ combe was known to invite students to go hiking in the Shenandoah Valley or skiing at Ski Liberty. Generally the teachers felt that they got back what they put into their classes. I just love students. I must say I ' ve never met a bad kid; I always look for the positive, Mr. John Jenkins said proudly. Getting Acquainted Students had a chance to befriend teachers after school.

Said senior ten¬ nis player Michele Pitt, Being on a team is a great way to meet people ' Many events shaped the ath¬ letes ' memories of the season. Soccer players remembered holding tryouts on the parking lot amid the piles of snow that were dumped on the area early in the spring of 1987. What was probably was the best thing about being involved with sports was the competition and the thrill of victory . Soccer player Joely Hebert said, What 1 like best is the competition.

The team did in fact have a good season having cap¬ tured 102 points, placing first at districts, and third in the region. The boys team had a tre¬ mendous amount of skill and ability as shown clearly by the six individual first places achieved by Mike riaifeh in shot put and dis¬ cu s. Other achievements noted were first place in high jump and sixth in hur¬ dles by Bob Lund, first place in the one hundred by Larry Jordan, and first place by both teams in the quar¬ ter mile as well as the mile relay. The girls team was suc¬ cessful also,with Jenny Beyer placing fourth in hur¬ dles. Also placing was Me¬ lissa Craine with a second in discus and a third in shot put.

The team worked hard under the guidance of Coach Ed Campbell. Coach Camp¬ bell runs a hard practice, but everyone will agree that it paid off in the matches,” said Rob Kulik. The fact that there were few veter¬ ans posed little trouble to Coach Campbell and the success of the team. As Bri¬ an Westoff observed, Faced with a young team. Coach Campbell worked us hard to win our fifth District title.” But, it wasn ' t all work and no play”. We managed to work hard, but still had lots of fun, like when Steve Secord dumped the water jug over Coach Campbell ' s head,” recalled Dennis Burke. The team also added a little humor to the season with nicknames, such as Opie and Cool- Whip. Even Coach Camp¬ bell recieved the title of Big Guy ' . Tough prac¬ tices, a great coach, hard work and lots of fun all con¬ tributed to not only an ex¬ cellent season but also a winning one. It really is a privelege to be ranked so high as a sopho¬ more, but the pressure is on to continue to do so well. ' -Paul Colangelo Boys Tennis 115 Hit -N- Run We have a good rela¬ tionship, not only with each other, but the coach as well, said Aimee Longwitz. This statement could be justified every morning as one watched some of the softball players, gathered in the main lobby, talking and laughing with their friend and coach, A1 Eaton. The varsity team came out of the dugout with only four starters from their 1985 Championship season. But the girls didn ' t let that stop them. They took to the field determined to show they were still the best. To them, every game was unique. The team had a one-game-at-a-time strate¬ gy and worked well with it. It ' s helpful to play with a self-assured, confident atti¬ tude, and aim these feel¬ ings at every team individ¬ ually, without caring about the last or the next, ex¬ plained Coach A1 Eaton. All in all, the Varsity Soft- ball Team rallied them¬ selves together and proved once again that they hadn ' t lost that winning spirit. Intent Study Standing aside. Cricket Mees stud¬ ies the game .

Listening Up Getting advice from Coach Sam Vi¬ tas, the Boys Varsity team listens attentively for strategy to take home a victory. Keeping Track Looking over the stats, managers Susan Zovak and Tina de los San¬ tos put the books in order. The highpoint of our season for me was when we were down 2 goals to Gar-Field and then scored 3 unanswered goals to take home the victory. ' ' -Kevin Phoenix We had our highs and lows, but we ended our season with a strong high. ' ' -Fred Farber 118 Boys Soccer w ISjsm The highlight of the season for me was scoring my first goal as a Varsity player against Woodbridge. -Chad Weyant Lookin ' Good Being close as a family described the Boys Varsity Soccer team. The one for all and all for one adage was practiced throughout the season and no one was considered THE STAR. When asked who was the most important member on the team, Robbie Finks re¬ plied, The coach was. This was Coach Sam Vitas ' second year as coach of the varsity team. Practices had to be at 4:00 p.m. because Sam Vitas did not teach at Potomac but at Fred Lynn Middle School. The team ' s appreciation of the Coach ' s dedication was shown in their respect for the coach and their winning attitude. The Boys J.V. team had, as always, an impressive year with only one loss.

The problem came when they tried Keeping the team healthy. The first three games were okay, after that, things got more seri¬ ous and the rest of the sea¬ son was spent trying to get people to replace the injured. The injuries started with Lisa Camm having a sprained ankle, next, Cindy Condrey and Chris O ' Con¬ nor were in a car accident and were out for a couple of games. In the Woodbridge game, both Laura Weamer and Shelley Eveslage suf¬ fered pulled ligaments and were out for the season. In spite of all the injuries, the girls made it to the dis¬ trict tournament. Once there, they played a tough game against Woodbridge, but unfortunately lost. My girls worked very hard to overcome all the injuries and had an excellent sea¬ son for such a young team, summed up Coach John Jenkins. The girls J.V. soccer team also encountered many problems; like starting out with 20 players and ending with only 15 on the team.

They were pretty tough ' said Coach Jerry Qardziel, a little rain didn ' t melt any of ' em. ' ' Their season, with tastes of both sweet victories and sour defeats, allowed them to experience baseball without the All-Stars of last year. Having high hopes for a state championship bid, the team began the season ranked 27th nationally. With a sense of accomplish¬ ment, they set out for Prince William Stadium. Once there, their thoughts of becoming state champi¬ ons were set aside while their minds focused on the game at hand, and just be¬ ing able to play ball. The J.V. team had a sea¬ son no less successful, This year ' s J.V. team was the best I ' ve ever seen; they probably could ' ve compet¬ ed on a Varsity level, ' ' re¬ marked Karl Schwanda. And as Brad Whitehurst said, We were ready for whoever came and whatev¬ er they could give us. ' ' Po¬ tomac baseball was suc¬ cessful in all efforts. Summing it up, Brian Bur- rough said, It ' s a quality ball club. ' ' “The first game against Fau¬ quier was hardest because the first round of districts are al¬ ways the most difficult”. -Mark Overholt “Being voted Player of the Year was a big surprise. It ' s a great honor, but a lot of peope gave me a hard time. ' ' -Sam Faz Baseball 123 Thanks, Coach! Here comes the coach. This statement brought thoughts of thundering voices and ear-shattering whistles to many students who participated in sports. And then there were the volleyball teams. Coaches Al Eaton, Chris Kadis, and Karen Moye gave support, advice, and a little push (or maybe a big shove) when the teams needed it. Like Nr. Eaton told us There are no I s in TEAM ' , said Stacy Closson. The coaches kept the teams to¬ gether and working towards their goals. Our new J V coach, Karen Moye, encour¬ aged us to be our very best, Debbie Hodges said. Our team confidence was boosted through Coach Eaton ' s Positive Mental Attitude ' condition¬ ing. program; it helped us get through long practices and hard games, ' ' said Stacy Closson. continued on page 126 Varsity Front Row: Melissa Mon- tesa, Jenny Aubin, Debbie McMil- len, Cindy Grubenmann.

Mindi Dovberg said that the coaches and the friendli¬ ness among the players made this season special. To boost team spirit, the players often cheered each other on. But, as Kristi An¬ derson found out, some¬ times things didn ' t go as planned. Amie Le Brun and I led the Gimme a P cheer and we misspelled Potomac ' ! she said. That team spirit kept the teams going even though they had to practice at Saunders Middle School due to the construction of our new gym floor. It pre¬ pared us to work in small gyms and the heat, ' ' said Xandra Bense. Our victory over Gar¬ field was the most decisive; it secured our place in the District Tournament ' said Debbie Anderson. Mindi Dovberg said, The hardest game for the J.V. team to win was against Osbourn Park, but we used all of the techniques we had learned. ' ' Our last game against Gar-field was the toughest. The third game was very close; we only won by a few points, ' ' said Lisa Beall of the freshman team. From try-outs at Saunders to the last game of the season, the girls ' vol¬ leyball teams made the season memorable, thanks to a lot of hard work and, of course, the coaches. Freshman Volleyball.

This type of cheer be¬ tween Coach Marilyn Selvi- telle and the girls was one of the ways the Girls Tennis team got psyched to play their matches competitively and make it all the way to Districts. Also helping them get to Districts was their drive and determination to win. Hot only did the team have each other ' s support, but also that of the Boys Tennis Team, who watched their matches. Their sup¬ port for each other was evi¬ dent during the District fin¬ als match against Woodbridge. When it came down to Marcia Huggin and Michele Pitt getting the team into the Regionals, the whole team cheered long and loud. This year was the last year of our building pro¬ cess. Next year our juniors will be seasoned seniors and the team as a whole will be tough.” commented player Julie Webb. Always a fine team, the Girls Tennis team built themselves into a great team, shown by their sup¬ port of each other and win¬ ning spirit. We had a lot of pressure on us to win.

Yes! Pantherette practice! Every day after school, the squad could be found trying different steps and working with new songs. All of that hard work and dedication paid off. When the team went to the University of Richmond for summer camp, they secured every award except one. Among these were the awards for Precision Dance and the shining star award. Hand in hand with these came a perfect score for home rou¬ tine, an invitation for the en¬ tire squad to perform in Ire¬ land, and an opportunity for the officers to perform in the Macy ' s Day Parade There were always com¬ petitions which required new routines and difficult moves. The squad had to prove they have improved in agility, creativity, and the ability to move as one. The Pantherettes could remember the year and smile with pride, they look to the future with hope and the knowledge that hard work and dedication pay off. Superstar Girl Showing disbelief and elation, Tina Miles finds out she was select¬ ed as a Superstar Girl. Only two others at camp were picked for this award.

Pantherettes 131 Fun, Fun, Fun One of the most exciting things that the Marching Band did this year was at¬ tending two competitions. The band had not per¬ formed in competition for over three years, so there were only a few seniors who had experienced the fun and excitement. Although it was fun it was also hard work because no one could march out of step and no one could play their own tune. Competition was a time to act as a unit. Com¬ petition is not like a half¬ time show, where your friends and relatives love you even if you make a mis¬ take out there!” said Mr. Brian Sachlis as he pre¬ pared them. Showing off at home game halftimes was fun, too. Another fun part of the season were rides to away games. As Forest Hetland said, We sang, listened to music, yelled, and talked. How could we not have fun?” Taking off last season s hats and donning bows, the Band Front marched onto the field in their new uni¬ forms. Their flashy red spin flags also added variety to the show. 1 and 2 and 3! Freshman Kurt Daniel, junior Soon-Gill Duncker, sophomore Mary Ross, and sophomore Jan- elle Boop count steps as they march.

For a little effort the golf team went far by losing only a few matches. Having great luck on the course was a blessing, but having bad luck on the road--fighting heavy traffic on the way to matches-was a curse. Although golf took little effort, it took great concen¬ tration. This caused tension which needed to be re¬ leased. Tension was re¬ leased in ways such as Wrestlemania 4 in the hotel at regionals. Eating at McDonald s was always a must, too. Being a small team, we were a very close knit group and made many special friendships which will never be forgotten,” said Byron Gooley.

Coach Bill Brown, Po¬ tomac ' s Varsity Head Football Coach, is one of two varsity head coaches who has coached from Potomac Senior High School ' s inception in the fall of 1979. He has built a successful football pro¬ gram, winning district and regional champion¬ ships and advancing to State competition. More importantly, he has built a winning tradition with a program that has pro¬ duced not only college bound athletes, but scholars athletes as well. Winning is a Potomac tradition in football. How¬ ever, sportsmanship and character development have been given equal impetus. Under Coach Brown ' s leadership, our teams have been the re- c epients of the northern Virginia Officials Associa- tion ' s Sportsmanship Award in the District for the last two years. In addition to Coach Brown ' s success on Poto¬ mac ' s football field, he has also served the school as an administra¬ tive assistant for several of our formative years. Coach Brown has been and remains a valuable asset to Potomac Senior High School. Potomac salutes for a job well done!!!

Offensive Attack After the handoff from quarterback Paul Kersse, running back Larry Jordan charges downfield. It ' s summer--bum-out time. Beaches, partying-- you had the freedom to do whatever you want. But that wasn ' t the case for the foot¬ ball players. First it was a grueling week at football camp, then many weeks up on our own football field, sweating it out in the hot and humid summer weath¬ er, getting ready to win in the tough year ahead. At camp it was hard work during the day--a lot of prac¬ tice with few breaks. But the players had fun on those breaks (if they weren ' t sacked out). On one occa¬ sion, upon arriving back at the dorms after player cur¬ few, coaches Dave Sullivan and Gary Fekete were sur¬ prised by the team, who dumped water and water balloons on them in the stairwell. After that, the team continued the on¬ slaught, (cont ' d on p. 139) Football was special to me because of the support I got from my coaches and teammates. --Brian Andrews. Football 137 Smile!

Our new coach, Mr. Bob Hannon, gained valuable experience in the sport dur¬ ing his first year coaching, ' ' said junior Joe Edwards.

Camp teaches us a sense of camradeship, said Ginny Lazar. It ' s well, an experience! ' ' The Award of Excellence was the highest honor giv¬ en, and for the Fifth year. Varsity was nominated to compete for the award. Captains Michelle Boyd and Sandi Lupo were nominat¬ ed for the highest individ¬ ual award at camp, and Mi¬ chelle was chosen All-American Cheerleader. When the junior mem¬ bers were asked how they felt about cheering, they re¬ sponded, It ' s the same thing year after year: foot¬ ball, basketball, and wres¬ tling. But we enjoy it. We love being together doing something we all enjoy. Added junior Julie Blanch¬ field, Cheerleading is a part of me. 1 don ' t know what I ' d do without it.

And the wrestling team did the things that made them winners. A big part of winning was hard practices. A common scene was a herd of guys in sweats sprinting in the halls being timed by coaches. Another part of winning was the support of Coaches Don Scarr and Dave Carr. Team members worked on physical strength but coaches helped prepare them mentally. They helped me prepare my mind and strive to be bet¬ ter, commented Charlie Driscoll. I was made more aware of my limitations, both mentally and physically, said Matt Covington. They overcame the limitations and went to Districts where Travis Harris and Ashton Hildreth placed first, Scott Ruhren second and Keith Pavlick fourth.

Education was guaranteed to everyone, and countless dol¬ lars were spent on equipment like new VCRs, computers, and the library ' s TOM, Text on Mi¬ croform. Even as education was a right, it took work on our part. Worksheets had to be com¬ pleted and papers had to be re¬ searched. Everyone learned something, whether it was the fundamentals of design in a piece of artwork, how to write a concise sentence, or how to re¬ pair a car. All of it took work, time, and dedication. What Ms. Sandy Moller told her seniors about writing applied to all ar¬ eas of study: It ' s what you make of it.

These three courses gave students the opportunity to put their creativity to work to make anything from a new hairstyle to clothing to pottery. We do many things. Our offerings range from jewelry to two dimensional designs, said art teacher, Mrs. Caro¬ lyn Leggett. Every year, different six-week long studios were offered. This gave art students the opportunity to develop skills in a new medium, no matter how many years they had taken the course. Students from Art 1 to Art IV or V shared the same classroom, but ad- vanaced students were encouraged to attempt more challenging projects or even independent studies in a field of their choice. For an independent study, students were required to stick to a contract that they worked out with the teacher. Cosmotology concerned itself mainly with beauty care. The goal of the students was to become certified to work as beauticians in the state of Virginia. As there was no studio at Po¬ tomac, students were bussed daily to nearby Gar-Field High School. This also gave them the opportunity to meet and learn with students of other schools. Cutting wasn ' t the only part of their curriculum; dying, perming, curling, frosting, highlighting, spray¬ ing, moussing, and otherwise altering looks were the staples of their course. Home Economics combined the common sense needed in the real world and the creativity needed to make life interesting. Students were able to enhance their cooking and sewing skills. Many times, teachers benefitted from their efforts in the kitchen when students took orders for holiday goodies.

Of course we knew all of the hard work it was going to take to get there, because not many of us were lucky enough to be just plain rich the day we got out of high school. A lot of students signed up for the business courses offered to enjoy learning how to become rich and successful. Fashion merchandising was a very popular elective. They discussed fashion all over the world and how to mix and match their own clothes. As a special project the class was offered the chance to go to Hew York to visit factories and offices and shop at Bloomingdales and Macy ' s. There were also classes that carried us through office operations. Office Technology and Office Specialist showed how to type business papers and letters, to file and how to use a word processor. It ' s a lot of fun and helps you im¬ prove in the office field, said senior Kim Lear. Accounting and advanced account¬ ing was where all the practice with money came in. It showed us how to keep records for business. Accounting was hard work and took much effort but it was fun too, so you really didn ' t notice how much you were putting into it, said senior Ca¬ sey Solum. Advanced accounting was done mostly with computers. The program was developed this year to let stu¬ dents have the chance to apply their computer skills to more advanced concepts of accounting. Marketing was also a Let ' s make money class . We learned how to run a business and the advanced market¬ ing students got hands on experience by running the school store every morning. Along with how to run the business it helped us learn how to advertise for it too. Most importantly though, it taught us about the real world and how to have the two major goals we had all set, MOHEY and SUCCESS.

There was more to learning a lan¬ guage than vocabulary. In order to understand the language, we had to understand the culture of those who spoke it. This meant everything from learning the twenty Spanish-speaking countries to baking foreign specialties for the Foreign Language spread. Some classes even played games like German Scrabble. Vocabulary was, of course, one of the biggest parts of the curriclum, es¬ pecially during the first few years. We had to learn phrases like Como esta ' Usted? and Wie geht es Ihnen? too, so that if we were faced with hav¬ ing to speak with a native, then we could at least begin an intelligent conversation. Apart As we progressed into the third, fourth, and fifth year of our language, our classes centered more around lit¬ erature, culture, and more complicat¬ ed grammar. As we progressed, we began to write and speak more and more as our teachers strived to make us more fluent. The most exciting part of the year was Foreign Language Week, which was held from March 7 to 11. In prepa¬ ration for the festivities, students made flags, which they wore pinned to their shirts to show which language they were studying. Also, students de¬ signed posters announcing the week and the Foreign Language Festival. The Festival gave students an oppor¬ tunity to see displays, skits, hear songs, and taste foods from the differ¬ ent countries. The students of French, German, Latin, and Spanish learned more than just how to speak a language that would get them an advanced studies diploma. They learned about other people and how they lived.

Whether it was to study, look for information, do homework, or read, the library was a good place to go. Students invaded the library before and after school, during classes, and even during lunch. Librarians and their aides were there to answer our questions and help us find the materials we needed. If we needed help with course changes, college applications and scholarships, school-related or per¬ sonal problems, or career plans, the Guidance Department was the place to go for answers. It was those secre¬ taries and counselors who helped make life in school run as smoothly as possible. Resource was a program designed for students who could not perform well in their regular course studies. Along with their other classes, these students attended a resource class for one period each day to work on their areas of difficulty. During this time, the student had a chance to work with the teacher on a one-on- one basis. For the First time, students were of¬ fered a new course called Employ. ' ' Employ helped the students prepare for the change from school to the working world after graduation. The Potomac Employ classes studied oc¬ cupations related to food services. As an activity, they prepared a Thanks¬ giving dinner and shared the respon¬ sibilities of planning the menu, gro¬ cery list, and chores that had to be done for the dinner. It was a big success, said Mrs. Louvenia Quash, a resource teacher. The resource program and its teachers at Potomac were very suc¬ cessful in their actions to aiding our special education students.

There always seemed to be more letters in math, than there were numbers. We started out with the basics in general math. We were using strictly numbers then, simple multiplication, division, addi¬ tion, and subtraction. They they dropped the bomb when we moved on to Algebra I. We were bombarded with these little letters that they com¬ monly called variables. Mr. Brosh ' s Algebra I class learned a simpler way to solve polynomials with the George Foil method. 1 found that the George Foil method was eaiser to understand than the other way, said sophomore Liz Hines. The next step was Geometry. There we learned proofs, theroms and laws of math. It was more fun because we dealt with shapes and not just numbers. Algebra II was where we really ran into numbers and letters mixing to¬ gether. It was definately something that had to be explained in great detail. We thought that was bad, then after a year we moved on to a strange course called Functions Trig. It seemed to be a mixture of what we had seen before and things that we hadn ' t. After a year of trying to figure out what was going on we had a choice of math to take, either Calculus or Com¬ puter Math. Computer Math was cho¬ sen by many because we made up a program to solve the problems for us. Then those who had interests in engi¬ neering took the calculus course. Maybe though for a change of pace one could take Consumer Math with strictly numbers. It taught the basic everyday math that we might use in everyday life. Ho matter what math we took we seemed to be confused, but with the help of teachers and mom and dad we learned about where to put the letters and the numbers and even how to get the whole problem right! Reviewing Homework Several students in Mr, Brosh ' s Genera! Math 11 class worked out problems from their homework. Working on the board Tanja Johnson learned how to do algebraic equations. Doing problems on the board helped students to demonstrate their knowledge. Computer Time Ron Kinley spent a lot of time at the computer during his computer math class.

Melissa McCreary “I like to play the oboe because it ' s a challange. Also it ' s a unique instrument; not many people know about it. The only thing I hate about it is that peo¬ ple keep confusing it with a clarinet or a duck. Harder Than It Looks Playing the trumpet was not as easy as many people thought.

Musicians of¬ ten helped each other. Loving It First chair trombone player in the Concert band, freshman Kyle Morseman said that he enjoyed playing the trombone at the band ' s concerts and rehearsals. hat did choir, band, and or¬ chestra have in common? natu¬ rally you would say music , but there was more to the word mu¬ sic than many people realized. They usually didn ' t think about all the long practices and competions that the musicians went through. Sophmore Vanessa Lambert said, ”1 practice about two to three hours every day, and on the weekends I try to practice about 5 hours a day. As band teacher Mr. Brian Sachlis always said, The band is only as good as the worst player. Of course, this was also true for chorus and orchestra. Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do. The Latin words of the scale were how many members of the choirs warmed up. Since much of the renowned work in the music world, especially choir pieces, originated from the Latin lan¬ guage, many songs the singers learned were in Latin. However, this Camerata: Kim Sanders, Eric Bell, Allison Hord, Mike Catlett, Tina de los Santos, George Bailey, Becky Anderson, Stan Schlegel, Kim Creighton, Robert Thomas, Alice Homan, Craig Basham, Kelly Johnson, Ken Stuber, Tracey Roye, Tim Wilson, Carol Blanton. was not the only foreign language in which the chorus students sang. At competitions, they often sang in French, German and Spanish. Some¬ times 1 wish we ' d sing in English for a change, said senior Craig Basham, a Camerata singer. Although there were many Potomac students who placed in the All County and All Regional Choirs, there were only two from the entire school who made All State. Seniors Rim Creighton and Tina de los Santos were the lucky ones. The two went to Henley High School to practice on Fri¬ day afternoon, Saturday and Sunday, March 5, 6, and 7. Sunday evening they performed for an audience which consisted mainly of parents and friends. The Camerata Singers were very ex¬ ited about ther trip to Orlando, Flori¬ da, where a nationwide competition was held in mid-April. They went for 5 days, from Thursday to Monday. In Florida they visited Orlando Beach, Disney World, and the Epcott Center. The symphonic band (Continued on page 172.)

(Continued from page 171.) went to competition for the first time in four years. The competitions were held in March in Williamsburg, Virgin¬ ia. The band had to go on a one-day trip there in order to compete. Mem¬ bers of the band were able to do more than just perform; most of them went to Busch Gardens to enjoy the rides. At the competition, they played selec¬ tions which they had included in their spring concert, which they had had the week before. The musicians agreed that the trip was a lot of fun. Christmastime was also a busy, fun time for the bands. Every year they performed in a school concert with the other music departments. One of the songs that was very popular with the audience was Sleigh Ride. What made the piece so enjoyable was his¬ tory teacher, Mr. Dave Colcombe ' s reading of The Might Before Christmas. Also performing at the Christmas concert was the PUS Orchestra. It was different from the classes, as it was a full orchestra. Horn, woodwind, and percussion players joined the violin¬ ists, violists, cellists, and bassists on the stage. The group usually prac¬ ticed together after school, as they were never in the same classes. Two other bands were essential to the school, though they were not in particular classes. The marching band helped raise spirit at football games, and also went to two march¬ ing competitions. The Slam Dunk Pep Band helped psych up the crowd and the players during basketball season, as their name suggests. This band was begun in 1985 by two students, when they were asked if the music department could help raise spirit at basketball games in much the same manner that the marching band did during the fall. The pep band contin¬ ued to grow--and continued to cheer and make noise-under the direction of Mr. Sachlis. Tuning Up Tuning before rehearsoal, Jeannie Palmer and Diana Moeres begin to play scales. Rehearsal usually started with tuning, when everyone played a C major scale. usic HiK The Night Before Looking the part of a modern Santa Claus, his¬ tory teacher, Mr. Dave Colcombe reads The night Before Christmas” as the band plays Sleigh Ride” during the winter concert.

Practice Makes Perfect In order for to perform their best at con¬ certs and competitions, Kim Creighton and Allison Homan practice a piece of music until they reach perfection. Becky Anderson Choir was always fun, although we worked hard and ac¬ complished a lot. It felt great when you had put on a great peformance.

Carrie Yacano The most memora¬ ble experience in P.E. was wrestling; it is one sport I don ' t un¬ derstand. It was a challenge and fun.

Considered a leisure sport, shuffleboard was enjoyed by many. o matter what other classes you took. Health and Physical Educa¬ tion were the ones that were unavoidable and a must for every¬ one in order to graduate. I don ' t mind P.E. It ' s a break from my other classes ' said Tracey Jarvis. Some considered dressing out for P.E. the worst part, but out in action, things became more enjoyable. After playing basketball, Theresa Theroux said, It gets kinda vicious out there with scratching, pushing, and flying elbows, but I survive. Taking showers was also a necessi¬ ty, whether you felt you needed it or not. In the locker room, there ' s a mad dash for the mirrors; the girls who need to fix in less than ten min¬ utes what took them more than an hour in the morning, said Tamara Hamilton. While P.E. was a break from paper¬ work, it was back to the books for Health. Topics like first aid, drugs and alcohol, nutrition and the rules of the road were discussed. The phrase Don ' t drink and drive was one of the many that was important enough to be stressed countless times. I found driver ' s education interest¬ ing and very informative. It prepares you for emergencies on the road, said Paul Beckman. The most awaited part of Health and P.E. was road and range. Students couldn ' t wait to get their hands on their learner ' s permits and get behind the wheel. Exercises like wide turns, driving in reverse, and the figure eight were practiced under the close supervision of Mr. Bill Brown and Mr. Jerry Qardziel. I ' ll never forget the time I was driv¬ ing and the horn went off and kept going. Mr. Brown just laughed and all the P.E. classes stared, said Kim Hochmuth. Road and range were meant to build experience, and some students did just that. After a few fender bend¬ ers and some close calls on the high¬ way, Mr. Jerry Gardziel commented, I see my life flash before my eyes about five times a day.

Time was the common enemy that publications staffs tried to battle. There just aren ' t enough hours in the day for me to get everything done so I end up doing fifty things at one time ' said yearbook section editor, junior Stephanie Dunn. It got even worse at deadline time. Staffers ran around frantically trying to find a quote, get a picture, and fin¬ ish everything. Sometimes it felt as if things were hopeless, but everyone put in 257 1 2% to get the job done. With staffs of 16 to 20 students the PliS Class and the Prowler tried to win a trophy award once again. Prowler won their second trophy and the PUS Class won their first at the 1987 VHSL Publications workshop at UVa. The literary magazine. Out of the Blue, also seemed to have little time to get everything done. In 1986-1987, we had a staff of about fifty at first, but it came down to it only five or ten of us actually doing the work, said senior Kristel McLaughlin. Out of the Blue consiste d mainly of student contributions. Throughout the year, posters calling for all types of writing decorated the halls. They called for poems, short stories, essay and other types of writing. The illus¬ trations were also contributed by stu¬ dents. It was up to the Out of the Blue staff, which was sponsored by English teacher, Mrs. Bridget Abler, to judge what was put into the magazine. At the end of the year, the finished mag¬ azine was sold to students and faculty. The greatest feeling in the world for me is to know that all the people that buy a yearbook love what I ' ve spent countless hours writing, chap¬ ping, labeling, printing, organizing, and computering, said Prowler staff¬ er Stephanie Dunn.

How Come?” ow come? said senior Rick Laurence. There were all kinds of sciences: earth, biology, chemistry, and physics. Then there were the ad¬ vanced science courses too. The far¬ ther in science we went the more the question of how come appeared. We were talking about DMA in ad¬ vanced biology and 1 kept driving Mrs. Ferree crazy asking her questions about why we had DMA and how we got it and why we had it. 1 just kept asking because I was curious, said junior Allison Hord. heedless to say even with all of the questions science was fun to say the least. When you Figured out that you got to dissect the pig in biology and the rabbit in advanced biology you couldn ' t wait to get through all of the DNA, RNA, and all of the other mole¬ cules so you could get to the dissect¬ ing part. Then there was the year of chemistry when you got to experi¬ ment with compounds like potassium permanganate, and silver nitrate. When lab days came around we all prayed that we wouldn ' t accidentally mix the wrong things together and end up blowing up the entire first floor of the school! Earth science was a lit¬ tle less dangerous because we just looked at rocks and studied things like volcanoes. Further on into the science program we went into physics and studied things such as properties of energy and non-living matter. Usually once we completed these courses we dared to venture into the territory of the five point class to get even more confused on the how come subject. Five point classes that were offered were Advanced Chemis¬ try, Biology, and Physics. All of the classes were fun for al¬ most everyone, even the ones who didn ' t even like science that much. But there was still that question in the back of everyones mind when they learned anything new, the question was-Flow Come??

' ' In actuality there was much more to history than just memorizing dates. This year being an election year made for many extra projects. All of Mrs. Jan Polk ' s and Ms. Charlotte Stultz ' s classes picked a presidential candidate and followed his progress throughout the election year. At the end of the year a mock election was held. Also with American Studies II came economics projects. Students were assigned a budget they had to live under for approximately one month. This was fun for the students because they got to go out and buy a car, a house, and all the other neces¬ sities. At the end of the project, many students found that they had a lot to learn about living under a budget be¬ fore they actually had to do it in the real world. In World Studies I, the favorite thing ot do was watch films about Egypt and King Tut. Filmstrips made it easier to get a good picture of the past and remember it. Tn my World Studies 1 class, I learned about Early America, which helped me extremely in producing a quality paper, ' ' said freshman Ra- chelle Brown, The most offbeat course in the So¬ cial Studies department seemed to be Sociology. While all the other courses dealt with the past of a country, soci¬ ology taught about values and norms of our society. Once we got into psychology in So¬ ciology, 1 found out a lot about my¬ self. It really made me think about my way of life and my attitudes toward people, ' ' said senior Krista Staley. So¬ ciology also included a lot of fun little games, like drawing people and trees. Exercises like this often brought out different events of the students lives which were hidden in the drawings.

Setting Up Preparing for Vocational Education Week, DECA students Kerri Little and Christy Lavelle decorate the halls with signs promoting vocations. hammer, nails, a screwdriver, a saw, a T-square, a com¬ pass, and a squee¬ gee, weren ' t usually found in places like the art room, the computer lab, or an English or math classroom. However, once we wandered into the vocational wing of the school, these pieces of equipment became necessities. As Webster ' s said, vocational ' ' meant of a vocation, trade, profes¬ sion, occupation, etc. ' ' So, instead of learning about abstract things like geometric theorems, themes in liter¬ ary works, chemical properties, or dates of Civil War battles, vocational students learned skills that would get them employment in the trade of their choice. Basically, vocational educa¬ tion meant learning how, ' ' like how to fix a car or how to build a house. Classes like Auto Body, Printing, and Drafting helped ready students f or en¬ tering the job mqrket immediately af¬ ter graduation. From repairing a dent to applying a fresh coat of paint. Auto Body dealt with how to keep a car looking great. On the other hand. Auto Mechanics Hammering Away As Matthew Eads and Lamar Gooden watch, James Gahn attaches segments of sheetrock in construction class. taught students how to repair all kinds of engines. I feel a real sense of accomplish¬ ment when I see a beat-up old car leave here looking like new, ' ' said Auto Body student Lenton Lucas. Added Ted Confair, It costs less than a body shop to have your car fixed here at the school. ' ' Students in the body shop didn ' t earn money for their labor, as all this was basically a learning experience. Doing well in the high school course helped once students needed to ap¬ ply their experience, of course. Drafting was another vocational course that taught students lifetime skills. Said Mr. Steve Prifti, If you need a job, and you have the classi¬ fied ads, you can look under drafting ' and find a wide variety of jobs to suit you. (Continued on page 184) Vocational 183 Continued from page 183 Printing the school newsletter, pro¬ grams for special events, or original screen print designs were only a few of the different activities explored in Graphic Arts, I ' d like to think that I taught a class that pushed your imagination and talents to the limit, said Mr. Chris Kadis, Graphic Arts teacher. A pair of good hands and a sharp mind were necessities in a class like Electronics. Students gained experi¬ ence to fix anything from blenders to typeweriters. The curriculum kept in touch with the latest technology as students learned their way around the most modern equipment. Covering most aspects of building a house, construction detailed wiring, residential plumbing, and general construction. Building sheds was one of the class ' s projects. These sheds were completed and sold as a sendee to the community, and a long list of clients waited to receive one. Con¬ struction was the perfect example of a course that prepared students for a job after graduation or during the summer . Manufacturing is a great class es¬ pecially if this is the type of work you ' re interested in. if not, it still helps you learn the big part of life and that ' s responsibility, said senior Mil- ton Thornhill, in manufacturing, stu¬ dents learned how to make every¬ thing form dustpans to hairpins. This course was more exploratory th an the other vocational classes because stu¬ dents learned how to make products, rather than preparing for a specific job. It ' s a cool class and good experi¬ ence if you want to be a carpenter, said manufacturing student, Mike Wallis. Getting good experience for enter¬ ing the job market and learning re¬ sponsibility was the focus of the voca¬ tional department. These classes gave students the opportunity to learn how. Guest Speaker Using props like his puppet, Mr. Belche, owner- director of the TECC School of Electronics, speaks to vocational students.

Activities, activities, and more activities-- it seemed that was the motto of the nHS officers. Since mem¬ bers needed points to stay in the club, the officers were determined to make many points available. They visit¬ ed a nursing home, had monthly teacher appretia- tions, guided the ninth grade orientations and par¬ ent nights, and had a few meetings at Pizza Hut. Of course, for everyone inducted into HHS, the most memorable activity as a whole was the induction ceremony.

SCA also revised the old constitution to reorganized eaders Helping Others Was What They Did Best the student council. Hew ideas were brought up, dis¬ cussed, and were then passed around for the stu¬ dent body to vote on. SCA met with the school board twice last year. These meet¬ ings helped student repre¬ sentatives learn how to dis¬ cuss problems and solutions about the system. Other activities spon¬ sored by the SCA were Pep Rallies, a blood drive , door decorating and the winter festival which included the first Morp dance. Last year the SCA worked hard and achieved their goals,” said Stephanie Dunn. The History Club was in¬ volved in a number of acti- vites. Two interesting events were the Model OAS General Assembly and the Prince William County Mod¬ el United nations. The Mod¬ el Organization of American States is a program de¬ signed to spread knowl¬ edge about the OAS. Mem¬ bers went to Washington, D.C. in December and rep¬ resented Ambassadors of Suriname in the H.E. Coast of S. A. on the Carribean. History club recieved Certif¬ icates of Merit based on ef¬ fective country representa¬ tion and observance of decorum to the best dele¬ gation. Other activities in¬ cluded a bake sale to help a needy family in the commu¬ nity, car washes, a dance, and two exhibits in the main lobby. YUMMY!!

Auto Body teach¬ es skills such as welding, brazing and cutting metal components, replacing vari¬ ous parts, and the masking and spraying of auto bod¬ ies. ICT is a work training program where the stu¬ dents receive a wage while preparing for employment in technical, trade, or health occupations. DECA, Distributive Edu¬ cation Clubs of America, is a co-curricular organization for all students enrolled in a Marketing class or Fashion Merchandising. DECA members participate in ac¬ tivities that develop com¬ munity awareness, leader¬ ship traits, social intelligence, and vocational understanding. A fashion show was performed for job knowledge, and to give stu¬ dents a sense of the differ¬ ent Fields in retail. A com¬ munity Halloween party was sponsored by DECA at the Dumfries-Triangle-Quan- tico Rescue Squad for a So¬ cial Intelligence project to learn how to cope in social situations. Every year DECA members adopt a grandpar¬ ent of a local nursing home as a Civic Conciousness or Community Awareness pro- ject. In May, an Em¬ ployee Employer Banquet was given for the employers of the co-op students to thank them for their pa¬ tience and time for working with the students. Members of TSA, Tech¬ nology Students of Ameri¬ ca, voluntarily hone motor skills in the production of Aerodynamically and self- propelled vehicles, such as rockets, launch vehicles, re-entry vehicles, and land¬ ing pads of the future.

Parents, students and teachers ex¬ perienced foreign foods and customs. The most eventful time of the year for the club was Foreign Language Week which took place March seventh through March eleventh. On March ninth, Spanish classes went to the national Art Gallery. Paintings and sculptures by famous Span¬ iscovcry Students Broke The Language Barrier ish artists, both classical and modern, were studied and critiqued. One of the biggest events of the week was the Foreign Language Festival on the night of March tenth. The students brought in delica¬ cies from European nations such as France and Spain. Some students wrote and performed skits or commer¬ cials in other languages. Displays were set up to show the different articles and customs from around the world. The foreign exchanged students showed a slide show to all foreign lan¬ guage classes on March eleventh. Rappi Thorsteinn- sen spoke of his native Nor¬ way. Tomas Waldermars- son told about Sweden,Minna Niemi repre¬ sented Finland. Spain and the Philippines were dis¬ cussed by Monica Martinez and Maria Lusung, respectively. All through the week stu¬ dents could be seen wear¬ ing the representative min¬ iature flags of their countries. Also if one passed through the foreign language hall that week one could hear melodious or not so melodious sounds of students practic¬ ing foreign songs for the festival. By the end of the year, the members had found that the Foreign Language Club was a discovery as well as a lot of fun. 194 Foreign Language Clubs Yum!

Discussing It Sharing their ideas for their big¬ gest activity, the Miss Potomac Pa- gent, are a few of the Key Club members. peaking Out Clubs That Helped Themselves Helping The Community Helping people! That ' s what Teen counseling and Key Club were all about. They both centered around doing good things for the community. The thing I think I ' ll re¬ member the most about be¬ ing in the Key Club is when Laura Collins and 1 froze our toes off standing in front of Bon Foods ringing the Salvation Army bell, said Qretchen Moss. The Key Club was re¬ spected because of its com¬ munity services. They also gave scholar¬ ships, tutored elementary school students and orga¬ nized the Miss Potomac Pageant. Th e group that had an impact on future senators, doctors and lawyers was the Teen Counselors. They went to Graham Park and Rippon Middle Schools to see the kids. They covered topics like peer pressure, drugs, and vandalism. Su- prisingly enough, the kids took to the counselors pret¬ ty quickly. Junior Steve Lacey said, On the first day our group introduced themselves and at the end of the session we asked the kids to say our names and they yelled Steve. ' It made me feel good because I felt that I had made an impact on them. The teen counselors helped the kids to realize what really goes on in high school and how to deal with problems such as drugs, al¬ cohol, and vandalism. There was still yet anoth¬ er club that got up and had to speak, it was the Debate Club. With this club experi¬ ence they learned how to feel more comfortable with speaking in front of a group of people. But whether we were a teen counselor. Key Club or Debate member we seemed to put some of those essen¬ tials into someone ' s day. 196 Key Club, Teen Couns., Debate Debate Club Front Row: Mary West, Stephanie Krugger, Kiwana Watkins, Greg Martin.

The goal of the It ' s Aca¬ demic ' ' club, the newest of the school organizations, was to be on and win the game show. Practice for the real thing was competition at school level. Competition and win¬ ning was reason to Keep practicing even though Po¬ tomac was on a long wait¬ ing list to be on the show. We have already shown that Potomac is number one in sports, I thought that now was the time to do the same on the academic lev¬ el, said Tim Palmer. Advantages of being in ccllcncc Three Clubs Deal With Academic Success the club were that mem¬ bers learned how to think under pressure and, of course learned more about subjects like history, math, and science, which helped in regular courses, too. The Science Club contin¬ ued its history of active achievement. One of their activities was to go to Gar- Field to test projects for the Science Fair. For example, they built aluminum foil to see which one was sturdiest. Students joined the club for a variety of reasons. Said Vice President David Gardziel, My sister was the president when I was a freshman. Said Steve Da¬ vis, I joined because I en¬ joy science and I am very interested in it. Scheduled Field trips in¬ cluded going to Kings Do¬ minion in the summer, when the park was closed to everyone but Virginia ' s physics students. In March, they also visited the aquari¬ um in Baltimore. Said Math club member Sergio Rubio, One of the many advantages of being in the math club is that I realized that there is more than one way to solve a problem. The Math Club created a new version of Tic Tac Toe. The game was in the shape of a cube, so it was far different from the ordinary two-dimensional game. Math Club members also participated in the Vir¬ ginia Math League Contest and in the test given by the Northern Virginia Commu¬ nity College. Osmotic Consumption?

Transporting a shell to the water, Alana Jacobson and Kerri Little carry their share of the load. ogether Working As A Team Brought Success Crew, Drama, and the Pep Club were called clubs but were far more than ex¬ tracurricular activities. The Pep Club was in charge of promoting school spirit. Bus trips to away games were organized by the club to give students the chance to watch the games that were hard to get to. Classified as a club but more like a sport was Crew. When you put it all togeth¬ er, it ' s magic ' said coach Vince Balderamma. Crew members competed with some of the top teams in the nation in the Philadel¬ phia national competition. Crew grew by leaps and bounds each year. Our growth has translated into victories on the water, ' ' said team co-captain Alana Jacobson. The crew team anticipat¬ ed each approaching spring to be their best season ever. Relishing their moments in the spotlight was the Dra¬ ma Club. Their productions The Imaginary Invalid and the Talent Show proved to be sucsessful. After putting on The Imaginary Invalid, Shannon Malone said, As in any pro¬ duction, the feeling that you have done your best comes with the final curtain call. If an actor does not have discipline of his emo¬ tions and characterization, then he will never feel the enjoyment of acting. ' ' Taking Mrs. Harryette Eden ' s speech and drama classes helped improve act¬ ing skills. Working hard both during and after school brought Drama Club members closer, Kinda like a family! ' ' said actor Andy Wynn. In all three clubs, working together brought great re¬ sults, whether they were in the stands, on the water, or in front of an audience. Pep, Crew, Drama Club 201 Potomac ' s Future Busi¬ ness Leadership of America and Future Homemakers of America combined service to the community with classroom education. As a side benefit, the club mem¬ bers gained a sense of per¬ sonal pride and improved the standard of living for many people in the local community while having fun pursuing their educa¬ tional goals. Students in the FBLA learned about civic respon¬ sibilities by raising funds for the Salvation Army and sponsoring community ac¬ tion projects for the home¬ less and abused women. They also sharpened their leadership skills at the na¬ tional Leadership Confer¬ ence in Washington D.C. and the Regional Leader¬ ship Confer ence at Ger- manna Community College and in regional competition in all areas of business. This year ' s highlights in¬ cluded a trip to new York and a guest speaker on pre¬ paring a budget for a single person living in the Wash¬ ington, D.C. area. During Christmas, FHA sponsor Mrs. Evelyn Flem¬ ing, president Lori Sprouse and other FHA club mem¬ bers put their cooking skills to use with a bake sale to raise money for food bas¬ kets for the needing fam¬ ilies in the local area.

We strive to help oth¬ ers ' said senior member Kim Cunningham. Their activities varied from Christmas caroling at Potomac Hospital to buying a new pair of running shoes for Carlos Williams to bowl¬ ing with the elderly and the mentally handicapped. My favorite activity was taking the elderly and men¬ tally handicapped bowling. Each Tuesday we kept score for them at the Wood- bridge Bowling Center. It really felt good to help oth¬ ers who appreciate you, commented senior Heather Moore. At Christmas time the Ju¬ nior Civitans held canned food drives and clothes drives for the needy fam¬ ilies in the area and gath¬ ered toys which they donat¬ ed to homeless children. SADD wa a group that tried to prevent tragedies. Its main goal was to prevent people from drinking and driving. Duriing the holi¬ days guest speakers showed juniors and seniors the CARE program s effects of drunk driving and slides of people who had been killed or permanently in¬ jured in drunk driving acci¬ dents. Club members also attended a convention in Washington, D.C., to learn more about the CARE pro¬ gram. Another guest speak¬ er spoke to the juniors and seniors who planned to at¬ tend the prom. Susan Stross said, I joined SADD because I was concerned about the fatali¬ ties related to drunk driv¬ ing, especially teenage fatalities. Both clubs were an asset to the community and to the school. Junior Civitans was the hope and joy for the less fortunate; while SADD was a life-saving guideline for all of Poto¬ mac ' s students. 204 Jr. Civitans, SADD Perfect Attendance Preparation Preparing their notes for the meet¬ ing, officers Ken Odom, Tina de los Santos, and Katie Martin discuss the agenda.

We took classes that strained our minds and studied books that strained our backs. We took test after test, only to be rewarded with the prospect of hav¬ ing to face final exams. Often we had to be in three places at once. We had to get help in math; we had to go to basketball practice; we had to attend that Junior Civitans meeting. We had all the paper, pens, rulers, calculators, and pencils we needed to face our classes. We had our calen¬ dars and watches to keep our minds straight and our bodies on time. And we had enough homework to keep us busy till the turn of the century. All these things were essential, of course, but that didn ' t mean they were every¬ thing we needed to get through high school. Chats between classes and the oc¬ casional weekend party helped cure us of the results of high school stress. It seemed that any time we felt angry or tired or depressed, there was al¬ ways a friend ' s shoulder to lean on. And anytime we had good news, friends to share it with were around. Those were the best things we With UVa ' s Rotunda visible behind them, mem¬ bers of the yearbook oand newspaper staffs show the publications that won Trophy at the VHSL workshop. learned at Potomac--how to be a friend and how to have a friend. With¬ out our friends, we couldn ' t have made it. They were, and always will be, the essential ingredients . . . and even more! Closing 223 as Go Big Blue! We put down pencils, paper and books for our pep rallies. This was our chance to show that we were Poto¬ mac, and we were proud of it. Donning letter jackets or uniforms showed our Panther Pride” and that each one of us was essential to the school. Se¬ niors Sue Coleman, Lisa Storey, and Darryl Close show their spirit.
