Freshmen work diligently on a Homecoming class project. Campus life gets that feeling By Laura Larson The saying, Things always come in threes proved to be cor- rect when it came to our school. Lots of good things happened this year such as, new dances, assemblies and probably the big- gest event, taking the Class B Football Championship. No matter where one was or what he was doing, spirit and pride could be seen in students' eyes. It could have been in the classroom with one's friends, in the cafeteria, or in the halls. The winners of the school showed right through. The 83-84 school year was one of great new things which proved that Blue Ridge High had that feeling. IELUDUIVIBB ILUWIE il
