Seniors continue to uphold ancient roles Finally it happened. Students reached the status of becoming a senior. Each person had experienced trials and tribulations through elementary and junior high school in order to reach their seemingly unattain- able goal. When the high school level was reached there was still the effort of com- pleting the sophomore and junior levels before the final year began. The newly acquired status contributed to a large proportion of changes in the stu- dents' characteristics. A spark of enthusiasm awakened as the seniors of 1979 were led by their peers, the officers of the senior class. Stepping into a previously molded form, seniors expressed a new awakening in the class. As a class they participated in tradi- tional events and created new ones to fit contemporary ideas and styles. Taking time out from summer activities, seniors began their new role with the taking of senior portraits, a task anxiously awaited by most hoping to capture an appearance that might never be seen again. Soon after the opening of school came the traditional senior class breakfast held at McDonalds at the start of district football play. A magnitude of seniors, displaying both spirit and hunger turned out for the event. The spirit so widely acclaimed, came to be a distinct evidence that the once apathetic junior class were seniors, and all signs of unconcern had vanished.
