Quality and dedication towards excellence has come to be a code for Big Sandy High School students, and the graduating class of 1980 was no exception to the rule. A relatively small group, the seniors were as closely-knit as any previous class. The closeness led to one general goal - success; success that has built the great tradition that BSHS has possessed over past years. leadership provides the building blocks for such success, and the seniors were instrumental in all areas, both in academics and in extracurricular activities. Academically, close to fifty percent of the class were members of National Honor Society. Seniors also composed and guided several of the clubs and organizations, all vital to the school’s proper function. Meanwhile. BSHS continued to shine in the field of competition. Seniors paced all of the squads, including the speech team who swept to another state title, and also the boys cagers who captured fourth at the state level. The girls featured another high-powered team, and the football and wrestling teams proved tough to beat. Finally, the music department, paced by several seniors, continued to shine at the different music festivals. A breakfast, a dinner, and the annual Bingo game at the carnival gave the class the needed money for their sneak trip to Flathead. Mrs. Mangold, the class sponsor, worked diligently for our group, and her experience and our hours spent working put us over the hump financially. Everyone in the class contri- buted all year long, and in the end, we were all awarded with the many experiences we shared and will always remember. The Seniors of 1980 proved to fit the mold of high excellence established at BSHS. The students strived for quality, for the quantity simply was not there. When a particular school year is successful, such as was 79-80, one can usually point to the upperclassmen for the sound foundation, and the 1980 seniors were the base of that foundation, turning their goals into reality, and thus preserving the tradition of our fine high school. — Kirby Kulbeck TRADITIONS PRESERVED 28
