The Facts of Senioritis fi.: 2 5: as 'Z o I r 'Q What happened when six hundred teenagers in the fall of 1982 got together with hopes of making their senior year the best ever? September was a month of fun with seniors becoming reacquainted with each other. Homework was at least 'tattemptedn during this month unlike the spring semester when assignments were neglected for days. Beach trips during school hours were another popular senior activity. ln October, three day water-ski, surfing, and desert trips became a common phenomenon among seniors. While many seniors enjoyed these mini-vacations, others liked the challenge of sneaking off campus to make 'Lcloughnut runs and have lunch at McDonald's. By January, snow ski season was into full swing accompanied by a seemingly high rate of senior absences. As spring neared and the weather grew warmer the beaches, deserts, and the Colorado River once again became seasonal hot', spots. Dough- nut runs and going home early once again became popular pastimes with seniors. Accompanied by this form of ditching came Senior Privilege Day lcommonly referred to as Senior Ditch Dayl. When the school year of 1983 came to a close, sleeping in classes and becoming suddenly ill on sunny days became an epidemic commonly referred to as senioritis . Despite this dreaded senioritis the seniors of 1983 all agreed that this was the best year ever. iam-. 1. Kim Baker, Nancy Lathrop, and Kelly Rock enjoy another exciting lunch at VPHS.
