7109217 Worship Prayer, both private and commu- nity is a very important part of our lives at Dwenger. Each day the Mass as well as Communion Services are offered. Once per month we cele- brate with the entire school in the gym. We have learned to use that area for many different things, the most valuable being the School Li- turgies. Prayer is present in many other aspects of a student ' s day. The day begins with a prayer over the PA. This y ear we had a new voice lead many of those prayers and that voice belonged to Miss Kokosa who helped Fr. Jim in the ministry de- partment. Most athletic events be- gin with a prayer as well. We tend to take this for granted but all students really appreciate this way of life. Mr. Gaughan assists Fr. Shafer in the celebration of the Eucharist. Brian Offerle, Dave Tyndall, and Todd Nagel lead the procession at an all school liturgy. Eucharist minister Sarah Kilfoil gives the Body of Christ to Freshman Craig Gunckel. Opening 3

Academics Having Fun Learning Academics is stressed here. Start- ing with the class of ' 89 we will need 45 credits to graduate while prior to that we only needed 40. Also re- quired is two years of both Math and Science. The class of ' 90 will also be required to take typing and comput- ers. To make all this possible we have changed from a six period day to a seven period day. Juniors and Seniors also have the Interim program to look forward to. On Interim day or days people from various professions come in to talk about their jobs, its requirements, what they do exactly, how much a person in that field can expect to make, etc. This helps the students to plan for their careers and under- stand what they are in for. Mr. Brombereck helps Mimi Rommel with her Mass and Sacraments paper. Joe Sterba and Ben Pursley are seemingly stunned by what they see. They are speech- less. It ' s just one laugh after the other in Mrs. Spohn ' s Freshman English classes. Karen Augustyn and Sylvia Soto are quite amused.
