Looking Back on Ten EERF .. arcia Kirkley of the English Depart- ment said, One of the best experiences I have had as a teacher here at Smoky Hill was having an advisor group during the early advisor program. Ms. Kirkley mentioned several instances where the advisor groups went to various places. That program was the most effective way to minimize 'Institution Syndrome! J.B. Doze and George Weathers, also of English, have been here for ten years. Another veteran Mr. Kettlehut expressed, seeing growth and pride in school is one of the 'bests', the traditions and belonging of the student body seem strong. He also complimented the growth of the students in the area of leadership, and the growth and expan- sion of academics and athletics. J.B. DOZE smiles at a correct answer.

he administration of Smoky Hill is a major reason for the excellent academic and athletic programs that brought attention to Smoky Hill. Under principal Dr. Eric Eversley and assistant principals Dr. Don Groves, Dr. Bill Larson, and welcome addition in Jan McNally, Smoky Hill thrived and grew. The administration was busy handling not only the day to day problems of running a high school, but also planning for the use of the addition scheduled for completion in the fall of 1984. The administration also welcomed a new Athletic Director to replace Dr. Larson. Don Hudson worked hard to continue the tradition of athletic excellence in Smoky Hill. Being the tenth year of Smoky Hill, Dr. Eversley was asked about the school then and now. He pointed out how Smoky Hill had started in the middle school with the students divided into many rigid cliques. He pointed out that now the staff is more organized and the barriers between cliques has began to break down. When asked which year he liked best, Dr. Eversley replied Each year is better than the one preceding. Which makes 1984 the best of ten. KICKING UP his heels, Dr. Eversley participates in the faculty pom routine. SMILING for the camera, Dr. Don Groves takes time from his busy schedule. RELAXING . ..
