With over 400 students and a caring staff, each day was was filled with joy and laughs. On Aug. 27, the doors opened wide and the routine of summer was set aside. It was a summer of breakdancing, ghostbusting, the Olympics and more. The Jackson’s made K.C. their first stop on their Victory tour... It was a special spirit... It was a special year... It was a special spirit a very special spirit... Up 2-3-4. Pictured top left, the Cross Country team warms up with some exercises before hit- ting the road. Gotcha.

It was a special spirit... a very special spirit... Spirit was generated, our teams were successful. No matter what the score, we always were hopeful. “If you can dream it, you can do it” will be a statement to remember, for the volleyball team took State in November. The placement of EKL tri-champs was won by the football team, who pushed for yardage and showed they were mean. The grapplers left many denied as they worked hard to bring the EKL crown back to Bonner High.

Over-confidence prevailed at the an- nual Powder Puff game and by the end of the fourth quarter the scores were the same. The Free Fare lyceum really lit up September. It was surely something we all will remember. Sandstone was a great place to spend a warm summer’s evening. It was a place to let go, act crazy and sing, and we can all look forward to it again this spring. It was a special spirit ... It was a special year... 6 Special Spirit Sophomore support.

Homecoming ’84 Although an overcast sky dulled the morning of Homecoming '84, the spirits of many Bonner sup- porters were not dampened. The rain began shortly before game time, showering the loyal supporters who watched the Braves demolish the Turner Bears, 40-9. Soaked but excited, Jill Jenkins was crowned the 1984 Homecoming Queen with her court including seniors Michelle McTaggart and Nicki Barger; junior Bridgette Greer; and sophomore Lisa Pickert. The evening came to a close with the annual dance, featuring the theme When You Wish Upon A Star.” Officially, Homecoming ’84 began with many students participating in Spirit Week. Students dressed up according to themes ranging from Sweat Day to Beach Bum Day. A Friday evening pep rally brought a week of float construction to a close. The Junior Class won the float competition, with the Senior Class capturing second place. Eating it up.

Sophia DeLeon, last year's queen, placed the sparkling tiara on Jill's head during the half-time festitives in the game against Turner. Jill has participated in many activites throughout high school, including: Kayettes, three years; cheerleading, two years; basketball, two years, track, one year, Forensics, one year; Powder Puff football, two years; Pow Wow, three years; B-Club, three years; and JCL, one year.

Emotional medley Once again, director Bari Foote and the theatrical department of BSHS captured our emotions Nov. 15, 16 17 with their production of Potpourri—An Evening of Theatre. “Potpourri” was a first for the BSHS stage, con- taining three one-act plays. The evening was pro- bably summed up best by Ms. Foote when she refer- red to it as an “emotional medley.” The evening started off light-heartedly with “Ber- nice Bobs Her Hair,” staged in the 1920’s, with one adolescent crisis after another. Then, “In Act Without Words” junior Randy Freeman single- handedly kept the audience captivated with his mime presentation. When the curtains opened for the final act, the mood on stage had changed and the cast of “I Never Saw Another Butterfly” thrust the audience into the nightmare of Auschwitz. Throughout the evening, the talent of the BSHS Drama Department become more evident. “This was the largest cast we’ve ever had. Kids were double cast and triple cast; it was a great showcase for our talents,” said Ms. Foote. —Jill Jenkins 12 PI ay Is it worth it?

Its touching combination of humor, drama and warmth melts even the most cynical au- diences,” said Miss Laurie Brenner, vocal music director. On April 19, 20 and 21, the BSHS vocal music department, drama department, and concert band, touched the hearts of the audience by displaying their talent in the musical “The Sound of Music.” A large cast was needed for the production, with fhe actors ranging from six-year-olds to high school age. The musical’s plot exemplifies every day life by stressing the point that even though there will be some tough mountains to climb, we must never lose sight of our dreams. The actors in the musical made the audience feel as if they were part of the play themselves, by bringing tears to their eyes and joy to their heart. Singing heartily.

Jingle bell rock “It’s Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas” was the hit theme for the 1984 Christmas Dance. Rock videos, a new attraction, provided the enter- tainment for the dance throughout the evening. A large screen was set up so that the students were able to dance to the popular music or to sit and en- joy the videos. The dance drew a large crowd with many saying it was the best dance this year. Along with the videos, there were outstanding decorations prepared by Stuco. Helium balloons covered the ceiling and lin- ed the entrance while streamers and curly ribbons highlighted the tables and the dance floor, creating a festive atmosphere. This year, the procedure of selecting the royalty was different, with senior Bill Frentrop being elected as the first Chirstmas King. Also honored were Robin Roberts, who was elected Queen, while junior Pat Pickert and sophomore Julie Laing were named prince and princess. Is this for real?

For most, the evening started out by getting ready early enough to have pictures taken at home, then advancing to the Lake Forest Clubhouse, where the majority of the evening was spent. Through the course of the night, the disc jockey, from Sound Dynamics, played an array of music. Also adding ex- citement, taped dedications could be played over a video screen set up for viewing by all attending. All in all, this year's event attracted 185 people, which was the most ever in five years, according to Ms. Linda Horvath, Junior Class sponsor. Ready to dance?

Superior Season The goal of the 1984 Bonner Bravettes’ volleyball team was the chance to get to play at State. This went hand in hand with their motto, “If you can dream it, you can do it.” At Tonganoxie, the squad was highly motivated and captured the first-place title. Highlighting this victory was the selection of senior Jean Mills as most valuable player. Mills was also named to the all-tourney team along with junior Kathy Bates. At the KCKCC tourney, the Bravettes met Ward in the finals and lost a close one. The second-place medal, and the many accomplishments, boosted their confidence and made them strive for greater success. Coach Shirley Vaughn said that seniors Kerri Jennings and Pompi Miller, and junior Amy Smith were consistent through the year and added to the team's depth. With a first-place finish in the EKL, and with three members —junior Kristi Finley, Mills, and Bates- selected to the all-EKL team, the Bravettes were now ready for post-season action. A victory over Washburn Rural in sub-state play boosted the team to achiev- ing their season long goal of going to State. —Jeff Brizendine Sport s 29 Girls Take State Some goals are set higher than others, some may be more important than others, but the realization of any goal —no matter what it is—produces the highest feeling imaginable. One enormous goal was reached Nov. 3 by the BSHS girls’ volleyball team. These girls, Kristi Finley, Amy Smith, Jean Mills, Kathy Bates, Pompi Miller, Kerri Jennings, Mikki Allen, Tammy Bates, Marla Brown, Shawna Fisher, Jill Jenkins, Suzette Hutchinson, and assistant coach Hatsie Lawrence and head coach Shirley Vaughn, set a goal of going to the State tournament when the season began. The squad then went on to exceed this goal when they became the 1984 Kansas Class 5-A State Volleyball champs. “The Saturday at State was the first time the team really realized that they could win it all,” said Coach Vaughn. The tournament was set up in a pool-play format, and the Bravettes were matched to play Goddard in the opening round. The Bravettes won the match easily, but then lost a game to McPherson. “They (the Bravettes) didn’t play up to their capabilities, but they vowed that if there was a rematch, they would win it! said Coach Vaughn. The girls weren’t down after the loss, and bounced back to win their second game against a team from Altamont-Labette. The perfect game of the season was played against Salina Central, where the squad performed flawlessly on their way to a 15-0 blowout. “The girls did everything right, nothing could go wrong,” commented Coach Vaughn. This win vaulted the girls into the finals with a rematch against McPherson for the State crown. Coming out with a new- found look of intensity, the Bravettes got their revenge, 15-11, and claimed the state championship. Playing volleyball at State this year was an unforget- pr table experience. It was the highlight of my high school years. The feeling was so in- credible when they handed us our medals,” said senior Jean Mills, one of the Bravettes' top competitors. The win against McPherson made the title of “State Champs” a reality for the Bravettes, and it also meant that these girls were the best in the whole state, a feat they can be proud of! —Jeff Brizendine � State Champions.

A victory over Olathe South would have given the Braves a shot at the State playoffs, but the squad fell short of this goal, losing 16-7 in the last game of the season. The Braves had many things to be proud of during the 1984 season. Several Bon- ner players were named to all- EKL squad at the end of the year: senior Joe Sechrist, lineman; and junior Rodney McConico, running back. First-team defense selections included junior Greg Cop, nose guard; and senior, Dan Burns, linebacker. Receiving all-EKL honorable mentions were junior Mike Means, senior Stan Harden, junior Bill Kelly, senior Brad Palmberg, senior James Ogilvie, senior Bret Hitchcock, junior Jerold Fletcher, and senior Dana Nelson. The Braves also led the league in rushing offense. Rodney McConico led the squad with 758 yards.

It was a season of realistic goals that were set and ultimate- ly achieved by the squad. One im- portant goal the squad set was to place in the top two in every tour- nament. The squad more than met this goal, with the Braves winning every dual match they were entered in. Another goal the squad set was to win the EKL ti- tle. The Braves also thought they could go to State competition, and they set a goal that was reasonable—bringing home a trophy from State. And, since the Braves sent ten wrestlers to State this year, they thought they could place at least third. Although the Braves didn’t fare as well as predicted and eventually placed eighth in the state, the season was successful overall. New head coach Tim McGinnis said that BSHS had more athletes come out and compete in wrestling than in previous years. “It was a well-disciplined team that gave 100 percent effort every time they stepped out on the mat, said McGinnis. “Dan Burns, Ryan Smith, Stan Harden, David Blackwell and Jeff Holloway were my picks to go to State from the start, but Tim Ballou, Curt Mauk, Eric Bauswell, Mark Tinberg, and Jay Verdict came through at the end of the year.” McGinnis added. “We were a powerful team, we weren’t afraid of anybody.” The big wins of the season came when the grapplers cap- tured the Park Hill tournament and when they took the EKL crown, with six of seven wrestlers entering the finals claiming championships. In winn- ing the EKL, the Braves captured the first wrestling championship for BSHS since 1977. —Jeff Brizendine Food at last.

Records fall in ’85 The 1984-85 season for the Bravettes was filled with many records. First, the squad posted their best season record — a 15-6 mark. The Bravettes also set a new team scoring mark, netting 1,150 points for a 54.76 points per game average. In other record-setting areas, the squad recorded 325 assists. The solid Bravette team was led by senior Jean Mills, who established a new school record by scoring 343 points for a 16.3 points per game average. Junior Kathy Bates was second in scoring with a 14.4 average. Junior Kristi Finley dished out a team-leading 109 assists and set a new school mark with 72 steals. In addition to posting their best record ever, the Bravet- tes finished second in the DeSoto tournament. In EKL play, the Bravettes had a 9-3 mark. In non-league action, a season highlight for the Bravettes came when they defeated highly-touted Bishop Ward, 66-61. The heart-breaker of the season came at Washburn Rural, where the Bravettes fell just seconds short of mov- ing to the state tournament. Coach Shirley Vaughn's squad commanded the game for 2 Vi quarters, but that lead diminished when the Junior Blues dished out 14 unanswered points in the third period and forced numerous turnovers.

The team knew they had the dif- ficult task of following a state championship season, but felt they could win most of their ball games with some hard work and deter- mination. Finishing with a 11-10 record, 1984-85 was a learning year for Bonner. “I enjoyed my first year as coach; I learned more than anyone else,” com- mented Coach John Heckathorne.

Under advisers Sharrilyn Honacki and Martha Chandley, the club was represented at a summer camp where president Tara McCrink and vice presi- dent Beth Weir attended an FHA workshop in Sterl- ing, Kansas. Throughout the year, FHA-HERO hosted numerous activities for members. Some of these events included a membership breakfast, sell- ing Valentine’s cakes, holding football concessions stands, and attending the District E-East and State Meetings. At the District meeting, the BSHS chapter receiv- ed a silver award and first place in the chapter display contest. n h ue Trick or Treat!

I’m hoping that we’ll have returning debaters and do better next year,” said Ken Clark, debate coach. Twelve debaters rounded out the season, including two seniors (Winston Jimenez and Linda Lundblade), and five juniors (Patricia Neal, Cathy Jennings, Al Cummings, Shawn Walker, and Tonya Fer- rell). Building a future team, four sophomores contributed to the squad (Debbie Neal, Johnna Matthews, Cindy Munden and Tara Mc- Crink).

Most notably, the squad had two groups place in state competition: Mikki Allen and Kelly Burton posted a fifth place in duet acting while Tonya Ferrell and Brian Landers earned a sixth in the same category. Coach Bari Foote felt the squad’s performance this year was “fantastic.” She added that this was the first year in the history of BSHS that students had placed in a state meet. “This year couldn’t have been better. It was the best squad I have coached in four years, and next year's group looks even more promising,” she concluded. Practicing tor state.

To begin their year, members rode in a Mimemobile during the annual Homecoming parade. Later in the year, members sold candy as a fund- raising activity. Members also supported the BSHS fall play and spring musical. To close out the year, the Thespians hosted an awards banquet with the vocal music department. At this event, Oscarettes were presented for outstan- ding performances and for top technical work. The theme of this year’s banquet was “Bonner on Broad- way.

This year’s theme was “Bonner on Broadway.” Held at the Gold Buffet, entertainment during the evening was provided by forensics members and by vocal music students, who offered a variety of Broadway tunes. During the presentation of the Oscarettes, Randy Freeman and Lisa Jordan were named best actor and actress. Best supporting actor and actress were Greg Mies and Kelly Burton; best character actor and actress were Brian Landers and Erin Phillips. Mrs. Bari Foote commented on the evening, “It took a great deal of work designing programs, place cards, and centerpieces. But, all in all, ‘Bonner on Broadway' was the most successful and enjoyable awards banquet to date.” Could I have your attention? entertains the crowd at the Sophomore Brian Landers banquet.

Under the editorship of senior Javan Owens, a staff of 15 re-designed the newspaper for a more modern look and reported in-depth on issue such as drunken driving, working students, and VCR pur- chases. At the end of the year, editor Javan Owens was named the outstanding student journalist in Wyan- dotte County during the Excellence in Journalism competition sponsored by the Kansas City Star Times.

Throughout the year, classmates shared ideas and opinions on how to make a yearbook that would flow around the theme — “A Special Spirit. During the year, the staff worked hard to produce the 152-page book, with students handling all phases of the book’s production. Staffers were responsible for a wide range of tasks such as designing pages, taking photographs, typesetting stories, and pasting up pages. Advisor Jill Smith commented on the effort shown by students: “This was a very enjoyable group to work with. I think they made a strong effort to pro- duce a yearbook students would enjoy.” Jill Jenkins, editor, added: “The Totem Pole class worked extremely well together to produce a year- book that Bonner High students can be proud to reflect upon for years to come.” All in all, with staff members sharing ideas and helping each other, the individual sections reflected the efforts. Not only did staff members work in class, but after school and evening work sessions at the Chieftain office proved even more successful. Who’s who? This is a question often asked, but this smart group of people can name everyone in the school. They are the 1984-1985 yearbook staff. Front row, from left: T. Burnam, A. Siragusa, P. Albert son, S.

This year, for the first time, males were encouraged to join Kayettes and to participate in the various activities. One such activity was the annual Powder Puff game. This event netted more than $300 for the Kayette organization. Due to the overwhelming size of this group, ac- tivities were limited. This year, however, everyone enjoyed Val Pals, an exchange of gifts with other members during the week of Valetine’s Day. Doughnut parties were also held on various occas- sions during activity periods. At such meetings, members enjoyed pigging out” on doughnuts and socializing. The Kayettes were sponsored by Ms. Ardys Ke- nyan and Mrs. Gretchen Hare. “My third!” Tammy Burnam speaks in outrage that she has only had two donuts at the Kayette donut party. Seniors-huh! H.

The game began with the seniors clutching the ball. Finally reaching the two-yard line, the Seniors committed two errors which allowed the Junior- Sophomore team to take control of the ball. While a slight mist coated the field, the game was tied 14-14 in the fourth quarter, with a few minutes remaining. The score stayed the same until the final buzzer. Everyone was in good spirits when the night ended. Adding to the excitement, Coach Tim McGinnis assited the Junior-Sophomore team while Tom DeGroot led the Seniors.

Faculty 81 BSHS undergoes evaluation Bonner Springs High School prepared this year for a self- study and North Central Association Evaluation. Under the direction of Mr. Al Morey and a steering committee, the facul- ty and staff spent more than 1,100 hours preparing for the April evaluation. North Central Association membership requires that a school undergo a self-study and an evaluation once in every seven-year cycle. It is the responsibility of the school’s steering committee to establish the school's self-study, to coor- dinate a time schedule for the self-study and the visiting team, to combine all reports from various staff subcommittees, and to make necessary prepara- tions for the visit by the outside team of educators. Since April of 1984, members of the staff have been preparing for the evaluation. Mr. Morey ex- plained that the faculty and staff spent approximately 28 hours each on the evaluation work. The evaluation has been coor- dinated by a steering committee which included the following: Deena French, Sharrilyn Honacki, Linda Horvath, Ardys Kenyan, Tim McGinnis, Dick Nelson, and Chris Wood. Mr. Morey commented that the staff had much help from the students and patrons. He also said “by having a thorough review of the high school cur- riculum program and operation, the self-evaluation determines the extent to which the teaching and learning activities within the school carry out.” Bonner Springs High School was last evaluated in 1978. The school has maintained North Central Association (NCA) membership since 1923. The visiting team was headed by Bruce Fredrick, a prominent educator associated with the Topeka school distict. NCA teams are composed of educators who volunteer their time to evaluate member schools. The team visited BSHS April 10-12. Despite the hard work and long hours, Mr. Morey said there were many rewards from the evaluation: “The committee members learned to appreciate the other departments and the diverse learning and teaching in the school. In many cases, this was enlightening to the members of the faculty. Moreover, the faculty found that BSHS is an excellent place to teach.” — Melany Allen Laurie Brenner Vocal Music Lorrie Brown Instrumental Music Richard Burns Industrial Education Elizabeth Carbery Librarian Martha Chandley Home Economics Robert Chatterton Physical Education Health Ken Clark Mathematics Donald Craven Social Science Tom DeGroot Physical Education Bari Foote Enghsh Drama Deena French Business Jennifer Gilroy English Gretchen Hare Special Education John Heckathorne Business Sharrilyn Honacki Home Economics Linda Horvath Art Muriel Jared Mathematics Ardys Kenyan Guidance Counselor 82 Faculty All smiles.

NHS initiates 31 Although continuation of National Honor Society at BSHS came under scrutiny this year, the group in- itiated 31 new members in May. Because of changes in NHS national guidelines, Principal Don Stokesbury and NHS sponsor Mary Knowles propos- ed to the USD 204 Board of Education that NHS be discontinued. In place of NHS, they proposed a new 3.5 Honors Group. The board, however, voted to continue the organization. In the past, NHS members had been selected by a faculty vote, with only 15 percent of the class chosen. Under the new system, the 1984-85 NHS members were selected by a five-member faculty council. After the board voted to continue NHS, Mrs. Knowles hurried to make preparations for the ceremony. This year’s initiation of 31 members was the largest group ever. “It was bigger and better than ever,” she said. Super sponsor.

Just ask any underclassmen trying to cope with the adventurous trials of high school. Ad- justing to new classes, new teachers, and (most impor- tant) new faces, takes an effort that’s not always easy for all. Whether it be making you feel like high school is a home away from home, or showing you the corner of the commons personally during ten-minute breaks, or ac- quainting you with a chair and duct tape, upperclassmen aid in making you feel like “one of the guys.” Being a sophomore also has its advantages also. For instance, no one blames you if your float is crummy, because you’ve never made one before! Respon- sibility—that says it right there! There is little respon- sibility at the age of 16, because your parents don’t trust you enough. And the future, you still have time to plan your future with care. So, there it is! Being a sophomore is an experience we all must encounter at some time, and the class of '87 has been lucky enough to share the excitement with the class —Tara McCrink Pictured top left.

Although sales started out slow, by the end of designated sales period the class had earned ap- proximately $1,500. This year’s top salesmen were Mike Means and Bobbie Ross, who each sold 20 orders. Robin Roberts was close behind with 15 orders. To encourage sales, a $50 drawing was held, with Mark Watkins taking the prize. Juniors selling a cer- tain amount of magazine subscriptions also had the chance to choose prizes. Choosing between prizes. Which one do I went?

However, I like it and that is the only thing that is important for me.” — Jocke Schlyter. “The Class of ’85 has many groups. We have the partiers, the athletes, the brains, and then the group that is a little bit of everything. Even though we don’t all get along all the time, we love each other and we try to help each other out. I’m gonna miss you all!”—Candy Ander- son. “Not too bad, but it could be a lot better if everyone acted like my brother Bill.”—Eddie Fren- trop. “I feel that different groups in our class offer different types of spirit. The class is a close one.”—Patty Albertson. I-I-O-R “Although our class has not been as active as I expected, I still believe the Class of '85 is very spirited and enthusiastic.” — Michelle McTaggart. “Very outgoing and ready to support each other in all ac- tivities.”—Erin Phillips. “The class spirit doesn’t reach its peak until the word “party” is brought up.”—Steve Brady. “Close, togetherness, good times, very outgoing! Caring about one another and about helping others, and having respect for the underclassman.”—Lisa Liston. “It’s okay. Not very many peo- ple go to breakfasts and we don’t have many parties, but one thing the Class of '85 has is a sense of humor.”—Angie Nunn “I’ll never forget the spirit of the Class of 85... it is a spirit that is truly undefinable.” —Jill Jenkins.

Seniors 117 The wild life Many seniors find the only way to make it through a week is to look forward to the weekend. What is there to do on weekends? Need you even ask! This year’s Senior Class always had some place to go and many things to do. Parties, poker games, athletic events, and weekend visits to prospective colleges filled many of the weekends. The Plaza seemed to be a great place to just relax and take things easy. Snowy Christmas-time car- riage rides in the winter and crusin' with the top down in the hot summer are just a few of the many things that are enjoyed by this year’s Senior Class. Finally, turning the big 18 also brought the bar scene to many seniors. Dancing the night away seemed a good way to end a week of school and to start a weekend of fun. We were also entertained by local events, such as Braves’ sporting events, hitting the local Micky D’s, and the ultimate partying place—Archer Road and Price’s Bridge. Many of us also found that the high school parking lot becomes a canvas for inspiring artists after dark. —Suann Chayer Cleaning up her act.

As the seniors began to arrive at the annual Senior Dinner, memories of good times throughout their four years of high school flowed through their minds. The evening began with a meal catered by the Porter’s. Shortly after, the entertainment began, and everyone there was anxiously wondering if they had done anything embarrassing enough to be announc- ed to the whole Senior Class. Sure enough, many seniors were jokingly reminded of their past escapades. With Jill Jenkins and Erin Phillips serv- ing as emcees for the annual roast, the night was fill- ed with laughter and fun as memories (never to be forgotten) filled the minds of the Class of '85.
