First of all, it went by much too fast. lt does not seem possi- ble that the class of 1988 is now going in different directions and on to bigger and better things. I remember when they arrived on our campus as fresh- men - and that seems like only yester- day. This year has been unusual, but in a positive way. We have never had so much success in so many different areas. Our athletic teams have repre- sented us in excellent fashion. Included in that success are Frontier League, C.l.F., and state championships. The performing arts have been equally ac- tive and successful. The majority of our students are involved in some aspect of the extra-curricular program. s are People Too Our selection as one of the outstanding high schools in California this year is a testimonial to our faculty and staff, our educational program, and the level of community support we receive. lt also reflects, in particular, on the fine young people who attend Agoura High School. To those coming back next year, we look forward to continued success. To those leaving us, God Speed and Good Luck for the future. Make it a good one! And don't forget us! st..tt.c:.z. Michael Botsford, Ed.D., Principal

Robert Donahue, Ed.D., Assistant Principal ave you ever wondered what teachers do out of school? Well, here are some answers. Did you know that Kris Lundquist, for example, sings in a women's chorus called the Sweet Adelines? Or that Joyce Petersons likes to lie out on weekends at Zuma or in her backyard? Did you know that Nan Cano's hobbies are writing articles, sewing, and callig- raphy? Well, it's all true. On top of all this, teachers do a lot more people things than we give them credit for. For example, Counselor Herb Fein- man's favorite activities are eating and watching t.v., but Pat Croner enjoys vis- iting with her son and daughters on the weekend. Fred Williams, on the other hand, umpires high school baseball and softball in his spare time, and Tom Johnsen gives massage and accupres- sure treatments. Nurse Mary Soelberg enjoys collecting antiques, Americana memorabilia, and dolls from the '40s and '50s. John Kilpatrick takes his son's scout troop on hiking and cross-coun- try skiing outings. And guess what Vice-Principal John Albrezzi does in his spare time. He enjoys playing golf and painting. Judy Dobrowski's favorite weekend activity is spending time with her husband. According to Suzanne Packard, the interesting activities she participates in are censored. Mary Ellen Kirk enjoys going antique hunting, es- pecially for furniture for her doll col- lection. Antiques seem to be a new fad because Pat Croner's new hobby is also learning about antiques. Some of Judy Gaviati's hobbies are photogra- phy, reading, and watching Jeopardy. Linda Adams teaches skin care classes, as well as participating in a bible study group. Okay, so what if these activities are real people activities, what else do teachers do? VACATION! Favorite va- cation spots ranged from Lake Tahoe for Bob Rizzardi to Europe for Joyce Petersons. Andrea Plets loves Sequoia National Park, while Peggy Smith likes to spend her vacation time at home. Herb Feinman's favorite vacation'spot is the buffet table at the video store. Tom Johnsen has no favorite spot, but he especially likes remote mountain and beach areas. David Laughrea likes vaca- tioning in Hawaii and Bermuda. John Kilpatrick's favorite getaways are the High Sierras and the Caribbean. To top it all off, Kris Lundquist's favorite vaca- tion spot is Hong Kong! So next time you think of teachers sit- ting at home with their red pens cor- recting papers, think again, and re- member teachers are people tool - Sadaf Cohen ZQQXQSQELQEZ we ga f gs as QXMQMEQ ... each of us was a kid once, and a few of us still are! - Joyce Petersons .,. teachers are simply older models of kids. - Kris Lundquist students need to realize we're all in this together. - Andrea Plets ... we did go to school once and some are still going to school. - Fred Wil- liams I happen to be both - is that un- usual? - Suzanne Packard ... of all the same reasons that teachers should believe that students are people too. - Ken Neely we are!! - Bob Rizzardi we are?? - Judy Dobrowski Nan Cano smiles pleasantly by the waters of New York Harbor.
