Parental Guidance: Suggested? Sometimes students think certain teachers are harder or stricter than others, but what if one had to have his parents as teachers or maybe even for homeroom, such as Senior Robert Depp had? There are no special privileges like other students think. In fact, there are less,” commented Junior Ann Grider who had her mom as a drill team coach and her father as Superintendent. They always know when you have homework and you have to behave in class,” said Sophomore Bruce Hadley who had his mother for Biology and whose father is also a teacher at ACHS. Other students at ACHS who have their parents as teachers or whose parents are teachers at ACHS are as follows: Shane Arnold, Tim Baker, Sarah Barbee, Susan Barbee, Barry Blair, Dona Depp, Robb Durham, Paul McQueary, Pam Parnell, Brent Roach, Terra Lynn Shively, Melanie Vaughn, and Mark Watson. “It is easier to talk about problems at school when all three of us are at the same school,” said Bruce. “But other than that I can find no advantages at all when it comes to having parents who teach at your own school.” ---Robb Durham Sophomore Dona Depp, listens as her mom in- structs her on what to do. teachers' kids 27

Our world was in constant motion this year. From advances in science to cam- paigns in the election, from the peace talks to the war zones, we moved through a myriad of unique experiences that will put the ’84-’85 year forever in the annals of history. Probably most important in the minds of the American public was the Presidential election. The candidates vying for office were the incumbents, Ronald Reagan and George Bush, and former Vice-President Walter Mondale with ex-Congresswoman Geraldine Fer- raro as his running mate. Although the Mondale-Ferraro ticket ran a close campaign, President Reagan won a landslide victory with the widest margin of any President since Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Mr. Reagan had 525 of the possible 538 electoral votes, and received 59% of the popular vote. In the senatorial race, Mitch McCon- nell surprised many when he defeated former senator Walter Dee Huddleston. Our athletes became instant heroes after the 1984 Summer Olympics had ended. With the home court advan- tage of Los Angeles, names like Bart Conner and Mary Lou Retton turned in- to living legends. Our team received many gold medals, including those given in the field of men’s gymnastics, a first for our country. The Soviets tried to put a damper on the Olympics with their boycott, but did not succeed. War-torn Central American countries like Nicaragua and Ei Salvador cried out for help. America gave what aid she could, amidst the rumors of covert military actions. The field of medicine had major breakthroughs. Dr. William Devries im- planted the first successful artificial heart in William J. Schroeder at our own Humana Hospital Audobon in Louisville. President Reagan and Soviet Minister Andrei Gramyko meet in Geneva. Switzerland to discuss arms reductions. The Trivial Pursuit game became an overnight success this year.
