Avoca Central School - Avocan Yearbook (Avoca, NY)

DEDICATION During our four years of high school we have had many more downs than ups. For our first two years we had new advisors and weren’t the most ambitious bunch of people. Last year we were put into the hands of someone who was bound and determined to make something of us. Although he has pushed (and sometimes shoved!) us, we’ve made it. Without his guidance and authority, we wouldn’t have made it this far. So for all the times you could have given up on us but didn’t, and for all the times you helped us when we should have done things ourselves, we, the Class of 1985, dedicate our yearbook to you, Mr. John Welc. 4

Who does your hair? The new camouflage look. Life here at Avoca is often considered the life of a clown. Nothing is as it seems and everyone is always trying to make everyone laugh. Yes, clowns do seem to make us happier. Here at Avoca we have our abundance of clowns. There are those clowns who try to make us learn (the teachers), those who refuse to learn (all students), and finally the clowns that drive everyone nuts (the underclassmen). The Class of 1985 would like to take you on a journey through the typical life of us clowns at A.C.S. We hope that you enjoy this trip and have many laughs in the process. And now-------SEND IN THE CLOWNS!

APPRF.CIATION Few people have been as influential on our class as these two individuals. They have been there when the times have been hard and pushed all of us to be the very best we can. Each of them has made a unique part of their personality a part of us. Therefore, we, the Class of 1985 extend our deepest appreciation to Mr. John Miller and Mrs. Jo Slovak. 5
