Quickly they discovered that the first year of high school brought new experiences, involvement in traditional activities, and more adult responsibilities. Helping the frosh make the transition from junior high to high school were freshman counselor Dick Cory and a new program, Advisement, which paired every freshman with a faculty adviser during his first year here. Class officers were president Susan Hansen, vice-president Lori Page, secretary Regina Sweeney, and treasurer Scott Schneider. Senators elected from the class included Brenda Black, Laura Toma, and Teri Johnson. Freshmen senators were responsible for the food - munchies and a hearty breakfast, during the Senate Lock-In. They also set up the elections for the upcoming freshmen 1979-80. As the youngest class in school, the frosh got some of the traditional ribbing, being dubbed fudgies, but many remarked that despite nightmarish anticipation about discrimination from the upperclassmen, lt wasn't as scary as we thought it would be. 1 Lunch time and freshman Rudy Myers gets ready to dig in.

United as a class and masterminded by the class officers, the frosh began early and finished their prize-winning float ahead of time. Float construction took place at Scott Schneider's house. The class got down to business. Centering around the general float theme: movies. Beth Wobken came up with a float idea based on the popular monster movie JAWS which dealt with a man-eating shark. Their float featured a QGrinneIlJ tiger- eating J-Hawk dominating the homecoming gridiron. A tiger's tail dangled from the J-Hawk's huge jaws. Just when they thought it was safe to go back onto the football field captioned the float. Float building started Sunday October 1 and continued every night from 6-9:30 p.m. except for the night of the powderpuff games. Numerous community people donated float supplies. Each class officer was in charge of various duties during construction. Every night 40-50 freshmen showed up to work. Industrial arts teacher Mr. Maggard, a class sponsor, helped construct the mighty Jaws J-Hawk. The floats were displayed on Frida during the homecoming parade and at halftime. Taking first place, the float netted the class S50 to add to their treasury. 1 Homecoming parade sees the freshmen cheerleaders responding to the crowd. 2 Sherri Lyness and Dan Kollmorgen help with float building.
