From learning juggling in our classes to jumping around from activity to activity, the four grades at Bedford High School participated in many activities throughout the 1981-82 school year. Student life at BHS was more than just the usual 8:00 am to 2:35 pm classroom routine. One of the biggest events that took place and captured the imagination of the ent Life helps make connections BHS’s four walls are also for playing games. student body was the production of the Music Man, last spring. It was the first musical performed at the high school in over five years. Homecoming floats were started in Sep- tember, and as the date for the parade drew near, many students in each grade level began to make connections by mak- ing flowers and building the frames, some- times working long into the night. The fi- nal result was a victory for the Bearcat Band. The “Best of Times” do not always oc- cur at the beginning of the school year, though. For Anne Spadaro, the happy moment happened in May as she was crowned the 1981 Prom Queen. The activities of Bedford High students do not all occur within the four walls of our school. Many take place in our com- munity, some even farther away. From rollerskating at Southgate Shopping Cen- ter to concerts at the Coliseum, we al- ways find something to entertain our- selves. The events in the lives of BHS students do have ripples in them from time to time too as we are affected by the world around us. Sometimes happily as in the wedding of Prince Charles to Lady Diana and sometimes with great sadness as in the case of the assassination of Anwar Sadat, the President of Egypt. Lives of Bedford High students include much. We have good times, embarrassing moments, and emotional strains. This is all part of the game of life and life would be boring without them. We laugh, we cry, and through it all, we survive. SHOWING OFF. While in 3° acting class, directed by Mrs Costa. Mane Mackns. tries her hand at the art of juggling. Student Life 7
