Hundreds of schedules have to be run through computers, mounds of garbage have to be cleaned out of the lockers, and each room gets a fresh coat of wax along with the hallways and gym floor. While school officials are inside preparing for the new year, activities that center around the fall semester are beginning to take shape outside. The band begins practicing in July along with the football team. Each group goes through tiresome workouts in the sweltering summer sun, but it's not all work. Each of these groups take time out for getting a little crazy and showing the sophomores what it's like to be underclassmen again. Meanwhile, back in the gym, Wild Bill and the basketball team have some occasional workouts along with Mrs. Sorrell and the volleyball team. All in all it takes a lot of cooperation from both faculty and students to get each school year rolling. The work it takes to prepare the stage is hard, but it's worth it when you think of the exciting new year it brings to Conner.

We have a large percentage of students that work extremely hard and achieve their goal of being top in their class. Our school also includes muscular athletes that put forth much effort to see that we are number one. The award winning Conner Band shows their support to the school and the athletes by working hard and by playing at the athletic events. We have an enthusiastic cheering section that includes not only the cheerleading squad, but many fans of Conner. They do their best by keeping the athletes and band peppy and full of spirit. There are many other roles that students at Conner play, including th£ preppies, social kids, goof offs, brains, and the farmers. Great players, good casting, each one successful in his her own unique role. OPPOSITE PACE RIGHT: Mondays!

These are just a few examples of how some students feel about studying and taking tests. Exams are 6 — Opening practically an everyday occurrence that cause tension. As students we have gone through years of studying and testing. By now, we are resigned to the nervousness due to these check-ups. Even if you did happen to study the night before, you're still never sure whether you know the material well enough, until you come face to face with the test. While gazing at the paper you'll always wonder why you didn't take that little extra time to study. Once it's all over you can breath a sigh of relief, until you face the one thing worse than studying and taking the test - the grade afterwards!

The school year 81-82 has proven to be a period of great renovation and change throughout Boone County as well as Conner Senior. Our reputation as being merely a farming community is quickly turning around — causing the rest of Kentucky to focus on our improvements. This chain of events began with the construction of a long-overdue, courthouse and jail. The new county four lane highway, 237, which was close to Conner, connected Hwy. 18 with 1-275. Most of us will always remember having to use a road map to get past the construction crews in front of the Conner complex. As the doors swung open for the 81-82 school year, a chain of new events also began taking place in the school. Diane Weiss enrolled in the vocational school to take auto mechanics, and became the first girl ever to do so. This also was the first year for the Business Co-op program at Conner. Students in this program go to school the first three periods of the day, and then to work. They earned three credits as well as a paycheck. The students worked at several different positions including: legal secretary, bookkeeper, accounting assistant, and general secretarial work. Moving further into the year, preparation began for the first Conner Christmas Variety Show, directed by Mrs. Gayle Egar. The students began practicing a month and a half in advance for their December 8th performance. It was a year of firsts all the way around for this area. And how 'bout those Bengals!!

Opening — 9 10 — Opening As students at Conner Sr. High, we have a lot to be proud of when it comes to the school and our individual achievements. Ever since the school opened it has had the nickname of Basketball Crazy Conner. Then Coach Lewis appeared on the scene and no one can decide if Conner is all football or all basketball. We've also had a high record of achievement in wrestling with six state champions so far. The baseball program isn't to be scoffed at either, as the team always puts forth its best efforts. Mr. Hull and his Marching Cougars have set a standard of excellence that is maintained annually. This year the band won an eight and one-half foot trophy which set a world record and will be printed in the Guinness Book of World Records. Our F.F.A. class gets into their work, too. Noelle Lawson won first place in horticulture judging, Kevin Peach received first place in tobacco auctioneering, and Ray Thiessan went down-state for impromptu speaking. Shari Clifton was an outstanding student in F.H.A. She served as President of the club and organized a drive for the Women's Crisis Association. Here at Conner, there is always something to cheer about; an edible school lunch, graduation night, passing an impossible test, talking your parents into letting you stay out late, and, of course, who wouldn't applaud those snow days! i_ m i- wit Wmmri r OPPOSITE PAGE TOP: The cheering section gets rowdy” at the Conner-Boone County game.

The curtain is opening for the final time on this stage. This is the last opportunity for the Seniors at Conner to show everyone who they are and what they have to offer. Eleven plays have previously been presented, and now they must leave in this theater, the per- formances by which they will always be remembered.- The closing performance has two acts which are separated by a slight in- termission - Christmas break. Homecomings, Senior Dinner Dance, ordering of invitations, and caps and gowns are the props which heighten the enthusiasm and anticipation of the show. The second act begins and the lights become brighter as the tension and ex- citement mount. Prom has come and gone. Senior Day is over as quickly as it came. The florescent, glaring lights are almost too much, and the actors must stop for a breather. The show has had different mean- ings for all. The lights are slowly dim- ming and the curtains are being drawn. Tears are being shed — whether they be for the joy of an ending, or the sorrow and let down which accompany a climax. The stage is empty now, and the performance is over. The theater is deserted and will never again see the joys of these same performers. They have gone on to even bigger acts, with only memories remaining. ABOVE LEFT: The cast of the Christmas Variety Show. ABOVE RIGHT: Coach Skoog gives some last minute in- structions.

I had waited for three long years at the Junior High to travel down the road to the big exciting world of grown-ups” at Conner Senior High. Finally, on August 19, 1981,1 walked in the front doors with my best friend and immediately got lost. Actually, it wasn't that bad. After all, I didn't get lost until first period. (You don't realize how well hidden the classes are.) But lunch was a different story; everybody knew where the lunch room was. At the end of the day, the halls echoed with conversations of the day's experiences with new teachers, new friends, new classes, and most of ail, how embarrassed some of the sophomores were, who got lost their first day.

Driver's Ed in a closet? What happened if someone wanted a broom? It didn't make me feel any better that the instructor was also the wrestling coach. The people in the back were cringing when I finally took the wheel. It was the first time I'd ever driven and they knew it. Mr. Badida was really nice considering the clear and present danger he was in. although I did notice that he buckled his seat belt rather quickly. With several starts and stops, and once when he tugged at the wheel, I finally came to a complete stop My first experience at the wheel of a car was over.

They have played the role of a student for twelve years. Each year a new script has been laid out in front of them for another act of the play. Each new act may have a slight scene change or a drastic one, if there was a move from one school to another. Throughout these twelve years each character has undergone changes both bad and good. Many may remember their debut as a student on that first day of school twelve years ago. As they advanced they locked up in their memories those applauses and the boos they have received. Those special moments they will never forget throughout their production of life. Changes occurred during each act of the play including chang- ing cast members (classmates and friends) and directors and producers (teachers and administrators). These peo- ple, that each senior has learned from, gave them tips about the role they played, directed them, taught, and ad- vised them about playing that role better. Reflecting on this production, each senior can decide how well they portrayed their part in this stage of their life. Each one is now preparing for a changing role. When they graduate from Conner each student will take on a new role to portray. Using what they have learned in their past twelve years, they will improve in every new role that they undertake in their own continuing production of life. In years to come, they will remember events and people that have affected and had great impacts on the role that they play in life. These moments and memories will remain in their minds throughout their life because this major part will have a great impact on their future accomplishments, and because they have made a contribution to the production of life at Conner Senior High School. These twelve years have been spent getting experience and preparing for the future roles they are going to play in the huge production of life.

I will be going off to college leaving behind my friends, my family, and the wonderful memories of my senior year. I feel confused and disoriented also, not knowing what to do next; should I get a job over summer or should I enjoy my short freedom to the fullest before going toward a new experience. Or should I go to college at all? Maybe I should start a career right now; do I really need more schooling? Whatever I choose, I hope it will give me as many fond memories to ponder on in later life, as I got from high school.

Herb Ginn Tom Gline Joyce Gregory Sonya Grigson Friends One of the greatest joys in life is knowing that you have a friend. Throughout our school years we have had many friends, some much closer and dearer to us than others. Some we may have had are just those acquaintances in the hall, passing by and saying hi. There are those that we spill out our feelings to and those that we try to comfort while listening to their problems. At the same time, there are the ones who are in class with us, or on the ball team with us, sharing a common in- terest. All of these people we have grown up with throughout our school years. What happens tnough, when we graduate and move away, go to college, or get a job? We Know that we will meet new and different people, but what will happen to those old acquaintances and friends that we have known for twelve years? Are we going to start over and forget all of them, or will there still be a special spot in our memories for those that have had such a big part of our high school days? Will they just be a part of a memory or will we keep in touch and keep that spark of friendship alive? Friends are a big part of our lives and we could not survive without them. It is a great thought to believe that friendships can last a lifetime. Keeping friendship alive is such a great accomplishment and one that is worth working for.

We have pride in the school, our friends, classmates, and ourselves. We all are striving to meet our goal for the year and each take pride in doing it. We have pride in our classmates and ourselves for the success we have had in representing our school. Our school is well known for the many things it has accomplished (in all sports, chorus, band, and academics), and we should be proud to be a part of it. In supporting each activity, the seniors have had a chance to show our lively spirit and tremendous pride for our school, which has been a great part of our lives.

No doubt, the most important events will appear first in our minds such as Graduation, Awards Night, and the big sporting events. But what else will we see? We will see ourselves as students at Conner. We will see our friends, the way we had laughed with them, and also at them as well as at ourselves. We will see our teachers and possibly we will understand them and see their reasoning. We will search for the part of ourselves that we left at Conner Senior High and look at the part of Conner that is still with us. Then, we will see how we have grown since we left school and what role those days played in our own growth.

Seniors — 65 The people presented in this section began a new Act in their role playing of life. They spent twelve years educating and building their minds so they may succeed in the future. In these past years, they developed friendships that will re- main as a close bond between the 1982 graduates of Con- ner even though there may be thousands of miles between them. They have these memories to keep them close and a part of each other even though each of them are uniquely different. On May twenty-fourth every senior began a new stage in their life, hoping there will be as much success and happiness as there was in the past.

They were excused from classes at 12:30 for their Senior Luncheon which included roast beef and the senior Cake. Senior Superlatives were posted and then the caps and gowns and graduation invitations were given out. The remainder of the day was theirs for fun, which included water and shaving cream fights. It will be a day that will never be forgotten.

Senior Day — 69 Senior Superlatives 1982 Every year the Senior Class reviews the qualities of their fellow students. The qualities which they have portrayed throughout their years at Conner, among their peers and in their classes, are the basis for choos- ing these students. Twelve categories are selected each year, one girl and boy are chosen to represent each one. The Senior Class votes on these students, the votes are then tallied, and the final choice is posted on the wall of the cafeteria on Senior Day.

NORMAN ENDS 17 YEAR STAY IN BORNE COUNTY Some thirty years ago a young man walked nervously into a classroom filled with forty students for his first teaching assignment where some of the boys were larger than the young teacher. One of the largest boys was a trouble maker and the teacher calmly told him to straighten up, but the boy kept on. In anger and frustration, the new teacher walked over to the trouble maker and picked up the boy, the desk, the books, and shook him until he fell out of his desk. The begin- ning teacher had no discipline problem from the boy again. The young teacher was our current school superintendent, C. R. Norman. Mr. Norman related that the good ol' days were not as good as far as education is concerned. The lack of materials for both students and teachers seemed to be the main reason. He feels that students who graduate today are much more intelligent, and he also believes that television has played a major role in educating students. Although Mr. Norman enjoyed and respected his job as Superinten- dent, he feels that his most important role in education was teaching in the classroom. His most gratifying moment as a teacher was when a former pupil came back to see him after receiving his degree in college. This young man told Mr. Norman that he had been a great effect on his life. The Superintendent feels it is very rewarding to touch a student's life in some way or another through teaching. Mr. Norman's advice to the Senior Class of 1982 is to set goals, not dreams, for themselves and to reach for those goals. Whether it is being a skilled mechanic or a professor in college, students should strive for their goals and they will be more satisfied in life. Mr. Norman, a graduate of Pikeville College, Eastern Kentucky University, and Xavier University, has served Boone County for seven- teen years as Assistant Principal, Principal, and Superintendent and will be retiring at the end of this school year. Conner High students had the following ideas about Mr.Norman9s role as Superintendent. I feel Mr. Norman should be commended for braving the storm of angry people. — DeAnna Abdon I think he controls the money. - Pam Stenger He is responsible for everyone in his system. He must maintain order as well as he can. — Wesley Carrington He only appears in our cafeteria to eat lunch; and then, for some reason, you don't see him for awhile. — Jill Bissett I don't know exactly what it is 76 — Faculty that the Superintendent of the schools does, but I guess it's a pretty rough job. I do know that he has written many letters to Conner's Band praising us for our achievements. — Scott Valz The Superintendent's job is to go from school to school to make sure everything is running smoothly, and to see if any of the principals are spending too much money. — Mary Manners He can do anything (run schools) with nothing (tax money) in no time at all (the school year). — Greg Blankenship Playing the boss of us all might be fun, but the problems obtained at such a high seat can only be imagined. There could be days that demand precise decisions obtained only by cool thinking. - Tom Guy He stands at the helm of the ship of Boone County Schools and guides it through the rough and stormy weather. — Tim Guthrie We all know who he is; that he is in the newspaper a lot, and shows up for important events. — Tim Schmitt PRINCIPAL Mr. Charles Kelly entered the field of education quite by accident. While working his way through college, he co-opted, worked in a laboratory, and was sent to teach a class. As a result he found he loved teaching. Mr. Kelly has served in the Boone County School system for twenty-two years. Besides being an Assistant Prin- cipal, and Principal for Conner Senior High School, he has also been a math and physics teacher at Boone County High School, Principal of the Daniel Boone Boys Center, and Principal of Florence Elementary. I have one suggestion to give to the graduates: Give your best effort toward any task you undertake. Have faith in yourself, your fellow man, and God.'' Mr. Charles Kelly ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL While teaching at the Junior High, Mr. Bornhorst had a particular funny experience. One Christmas a contest was held for all the homerooms to see who could create the most decorative door. Busily, for the next two weeks, the students set forth with much imagination to design a winning door. However, at the end of the contest one class had an undecorated door; Mr. Bornhorst's. Determined to achieve first place Mr. Bornhorst cleverly unhinged his door for a beautiful prize winning one. The student body was surprised when his class was announced the winner. Only two homerooms knew of the gag. Besides playing capers, Mr. Bornhorst has earned a respective title in the Boone County school system for the past twenty years.

The Cougars opened their SI- 82 football season at home, on August 28, with a loss to Beech wood. After the loss to Beechwood the season started looking optimistic due to victories over Boone County and Cov- ington Catholic. Then the Cougars went to Newport Catholic where they received their second set- back of the young season. Shortly after the loss to Newport Catholic, the Cougars gained a Sub-District victory over Simon Kenton. The winning ways didn't stop after the Simon Kenton victory; they carried on through the Boone County and Lloyd Memorial games. The Lloyd Memorial victory was another win in the crucial Sub-District Com- petition. After this victory the season started declining. They received a loss at Scott High and Dixie Heights. After the loss to Dixie Heights, the Cougars had new life when they were to play in the district championship game, but their spirits were to be dampered once again when they were defeated by Highlands. The Cougar season wasn't a total disappointment: they compil- ed a record of twenty wins and ten losses. This seventy-five per- cent winning average makes Coach Lewis the most successful football coach in Conner history. Two players received great Ohonors by being placed on the AAA All District Team: Quarter- back Tony Jones and Lineman Keith Nixon. Halfback Kerry Ryle also was honored by being a member of the All-NKAC team. One of the greatest honors oc- curred at the Cougars' Fall Ban- quet when Defensive End Larry Miles received three awards for his efforts. He accepted the awards for Most Valuable Player, Best Defensive Lineman, and Most Tackling Points. 86 — Footbtf (1) Charlie Perkins rushes against Simon Kenton's defense.

Sixteen seniors will leave the team: Brad Arnett, Chris Burch, Kerry Dey, Ray Hamilton, Phil Hester, John Karlosky, Kennon Kelly, Andy Kordenbrock, Kevin McNabb, Larry Miles, Brad Napier, Keith Nixon, Charley Perkins, Kerry Ryle, John Taylor, and Otis Utley. The 1982 Football team will have 31 returning players. With the encourage- ment and support of the fans, this group will form into a fine team next year, despite the loss of many seniors.

This year's season was a period for the players to learn to perform as a team. A loss against Highlands opened the competi- tion; the rest of the season includ- ed a variety of games ranging from the most competitive game against Scott to the most comical against Dayton. The overall record was 6- 8. With the exception of the graduating senior, Ruth Aylor, the team will be back with the advan- tage of being able to operate more skillfully as a group because of the experience they gained this (1) Melissa Spare serves to her awaiting opponent.

Included in the accomplishment was a 59-0 shut-out against St. Xavier, which was the first ever in Conner Wrestling History. A Banquet was held in March to acknowledge and give recognition to the outstanding team members. Stan Martin highlighted the event with his many achievements. Among his individual awards were the Quick Pin, Most Valuable Member, and Most Takedowns. He was plac- ed third in the Tri Sfate Invitational as well as being Champion at the Conner Invitational. David Carlson was awarded Most Improved and placed third in the Conner Invitational. Freshman Troy Cole earned Most Pins as well as ty- ing with Stan Martin for Most Team Points. Unfortunately, there will be a serious loss with the graduation of Senior, Stan Martin. However, with the remaining competitors returning in the fall and all injuries recovered. Coach Badida should look forward to his prospects for next season.

Wrestling— 95 A year t© Remember The 1981-82 Cougars stepped on the hardwood for the first time November 30th against Pendelton County. The Cougars took command and won the contest, 68-62. After defeating Pendelton County, the Cougars traveled to St Henry to play the Crusaders This was to be another hard task for the sluggish Cougars, but they would prevail once more The Cougars gained an impressive victory over South Dearborn before they would receive their first setback of the young seasoiV The loss came against Campbell County but only before the Cougars compiled a string of five victories The victorious moments came against Scott High, Dixie Heights. Walton Verona, Highlands, and Scott High The winning streak was to be high-lighted by an outstanding perfor- mance over No 1 ranked Highlands After losing to Covington Catholic the Cougars traveled across the county to play the arch-rivalist Rebels Like all rivalry encounters this game was to be nothing less than a nail biting experience The match would not be decided until Brian Akers hit a twenty-foot jumper at the buzzer in overtime to give the Cougars a 50-48 victory. The winning Cougars would then play Holmes High School and win 40-10. After defeating Holmes, the Conner squad traveled to Lloyd Memorial High School to play Dixie Heights in the Lloyd Invitational Tournament. The Cougars downed the Colonels of Dixie Heights, 50-43. The Cougars' next opponent would be Lloyd Memorial The stakes for this game were to be very high - a trip to the regional Tournament held at Conner High School. As the painted-face, screaming, cheering sections looked on the Cougars, the game went into overtime, but it would take one extra period to decide the winner. As tension flew through the air, the Cougars relaxed on the outside, and scored 6 points to defeat the juggernauts of Lloyd Memorial The Cougars would then battle with the Bulldogs of Holmes High School in the opening round of the Region Tournament The Cougars had few problems against Holmes whom they defeated 90-73. The Cougars would then step on the floor against Scott High School in the 2nd round of the Tournament, a team which they defeated. 57-48. This victory would send the tremendous Cougar Club against the Highlands Bluebirds for the Championship of the ninth Region and a sweet berth to the state Tournament in Lexington. The Cougars playing in the biggest game ever, before a capacity crowd of over 4,000 rooters, experienced the agony of defeat in very exhausting heat for only the 10th time in 29 outings T 31 DISTRICT 36r DISTRICT Boy's Basketball — 97 (1) Determination shows on Scott's face during the foul shot.

He started in the 6th grade with the Coodridge Car- dinals after which he advanced to the Conner Junior High Colts. Upon arriving at the Senior High, he began managing the Junior Varsity and then the Varsity teams. He has received awards including Most School Spirit, and an article in the Northern Ky. Sports. Lonnie supplied much confidence and reassurance to the players through the fact that he was there at all the practices and games. He was indeed a factor in the superb efforts of this year's Cougar Basketball Team in obtaining the title of 9th Region Runner-Up. Our gratitude goes out to Lonnie Lynch for his contributions. 63 81 1981-82 Conner Cougars Varsity Conner Cougars Cougars Cougars Cougars Cougars Cougars Cougars Cougars Cougars Cougars Cougars Cougars ‘Cougars ‘Cougars ‘Cougars Cougars Cougars sugars lougars sugars, t.. ’arW?

Practices were long, hot and tiring but summer eventually turned into autumn, and the season debut of the cheerleaders. Soon the football season, ended and basketball came to Conner. Floor cheers and routines were rehearsed frantically. Cheerleading, unlike football or basketball is a year-round activity. A lot of dedication and hard work is demanded. Through cheerleaders are often faced with tough situations, most say that they would gladly put themselves through all of it, just to be known as Conner Cheerleader. o Cheerleading —103 (1) Julie Slayback and Renea Cates wore the Cougar suit this year.

Outstanding players were Todd Marksberry and Dave Fulmer. At the Regional Competition Todd Marksberry placed third in the 110 high hurdles and second in the 300 low hurdles. Dave Fulmer plac- ed fourth in the 300 low hurdles, and also at the Regionals. As a team effort the Cougars' relay team of Charles Perkins, Dave Fulmer, Artie Crawford, and lack McGough placed 4th in the 800 yd. relay. The 1 mile relay team which placed 4th consisted of Todd Marksberry, Artie Crawford, Dan Becker, and Dave Fulmer. Good Job Cougars! (1) 1st row (l-r): Jeff Plank.

They finished the season with a 17-9 record and a District Champion title. The team started a 11 of 12 game winning streak with the defeat of the number-one ranked Lloyd Jugs, and ended in a disappointing loss to Newport in the Regional tournament. Coach Shields led this year's Cougars to the best baseball record in the school's history. Senior Brian Akers, the team's M.V.P., highlighted the season when he pitched a no-hitter against Dixie.

It was the first time a J.V. team ever went undefeated in a regular season. The Cougars never actually had an. all-star member this year because the team had so much talent including 14 excellent ball players. One of the highlights during the season was the defeat of Boone County in the Championship of the B.C.l.T. 10-7. At the end of the regular season, Conner played Highlands in the first round of the Reserve Regional Tourna- ment, and lost their first game. The Cougars should still be pro- ud of a great season and should have a lot to look for- ward to in the future.

Various churches, banks, and other businesses are actively involved as much as possible, and the club is very en- couraged by this support. The FFA is the most active and self-supporting club at Conner. Some of the ways they raise money are: a citrus sale, a corn project, and the sale of plants which are raised in the group's greenhouse. The activity list is long: participation in the County and State Fairs, competition in the regional FFA day at UK which earned them the right to go to the State level, and they have one member, Larry Anderson, who will be competing for a State office.

Most of them began calling me grease monkey,” and thought that since I was a girl I should be the one to do all the cleaning, but they were wrong. Everybody helps! The first few weeks were rough. It was assumed I didn't know anything about cars and they tried pulling trick like telling me to get the muffler bearings, whir is especially nasty. There isn't such a thing! The. didn't know that I knew better. They have finally slacked off, and have ac- cepted me. I feel as if I know just as mun they do, and that I can do what they car do. My teacher helps me a lot; if it hadn't been for him, I don't think I would have stayed in the class. He told me if I wanted to work with cars not to worry about the boys, and assure me I could do anything I put my mind to. He plain something to me just once, and I ran understand and do it. I feel like I have learned lot in this class. If there are other girls who want to take the class they can, if they work at it Most of all, you have to want to do this kind of work to really learn anything.

Of course, there was a state of panic when a few people couldn't find their receipts, but things turned out fine. Next, the dancing began. It took a lot of persuasion by some people to get others going, but they finally succeeded with the help of good music and strong perseverance. I even decided to move with the music (at least I tried). There was a mixture of fast and slow swaying songs - the latter seem to recruit more participants. Before the clock struck midnight, the crowd slowly began to disperse Conner's 1981 Senior Dinner Dance was over. It was a special time for seniors and their guests, and I, along with others, realized on this night, just how much I would be leaving behind upon graduation!

The atmosphere was the usual one for this annual occasion with flashing cameras proceeding smile after smile. The evening seemed to be enjoyed by all, and even though the prom ended, the evening did not. The Conner students and their dates left Quali- ty Inn, and then were on their way to an evening full of parties. (1) Could Margie Poole be asking Carol Tolley for the next dance?

The night was filled with mixed emotions and tears as the seniors received their diplomas. After the ceremonies were over, the feeling of seeing some of the younger friends for the last time haunted not only the graduating class, but their underclassmen as well. May the challenge of beginning new aspira- tions be with these seniors as they occasional- ly reflect back on Conner High with fond memories and then venture toward many future rewarding experiences.

The following are excerpts from some of her former pupils: Being a Senior was the best part of my whole life in high school. I think that is when I really became more attached to you as a friend than a teacher. Terri Ransdell Class of 79 Whenever I look back beyond nine yea pleasant are the scenes of your classroom p tured in my memory It was you who showi me the value and enjoyment of reading. Chip Regenbogen Class of 73 200 You introduced me to Mark Twain. And after laboriously reading the first pages. I would imagine myself floating on a raft on the Mississippi River This is what learning is all about, and only a few talented teachers are able to bring it out, even in the most gifted students Teachers such as this are rare and you are one of these selected few. John Hogan Class of 79 You are one of the more patient teachers I have. With all the distractions, you still somehow manage to keep your cool. You are able to really get along with your students Kevin Wingate Class of '83 You are one of the best persons tl Boone County School Systems has even be blessed with. Larry Walton Class of '81 As our junior class sponsor you guided as we transformed Conner's gymnasium in a place where chicken wire and pompor became rainbows and sunsets. It seemed u thinkable during all the chaotic planning ai construction that it would all come togetht but your faith in us never faltered Luann and Gary Conrad Class of 77 You're a great teacher and I think it will I a shame that future students w'on't bene from your teaching as I have. Beth Aylor Class of '82 You've helped me out in other classes ai put up with my chuckles and incest laughing I think you are one of the ft teachers at Conner High that knows every ( cuse and trick in the book Tish Jones Class of '83 You were my first high school Engl teacher and the one who turned me on Shakespeare. Diane Hudson Class of '80 You have a knack for making all of yc students feel special In your class I'm n afraid to speak out because I feel confide you will always listen to my opinion John Poole Class of '82 I would like to say Mrs. Thompson, tha you and we love you. I have a son who someday be in high school and I hope t teachers he has are ot your caliber God bli you, Mrs Thompson He has used you bless me Keith Raney Class of 79 To Mrs. Thompson Created in Heaven was a Paradise, Created on Earth were teachers. Life's struggle is made easier by both. The thought of a goal where noth matters, but the service of Cod, Brings greater attempts at being humane virtuous. The help of teachers that explain new ideas. Make those attempts successful. — Tom Guy Class of '83
