Combat '82 This year was a hectic one for the seventh grade. The group crusaded through tons of homework, battling the never ceasing blows from the infamous skills, These skills consisted of library research, study, and composition. Class sponsor, Mr. Malley and his cohort Mrs. Melvin, steered the class toward grammar perfec- tion and vocabulary victories. Teachers, Mr. McMurray and Mr. Ramos, helped the students defend themselves against the constant numbers of mathematics. Along with them, science teacher Ms. Benischek led the class through the maze of metrics and current science. The seventh grad- ers took a stubborn stand against the invasion of the skills-snatcher this past year. Conquering this years's onslaught the class will fight another bigger battle, and they'll be winners!
