SUPERINTENDENT LIFESTYLES LIFESTYLES LIFESTYLES LIFESTYLES LIFESTYLES LIFESTYLES LIFESTYLES L .ik ful' .Z Mr. Manthala George, Jr. Mr. Manthala George, Jr., the Superintendent of the Brockton Public Schools, continues to maintain the spirit of excellence in Brock- ton. He has been instrumen- tal in reinstating many of the programs and services we lost under Proposition 2V2. However, Mr. George feels that this is just the be- ginning, there are so many programs that we have yet to restore. Mr. George feels that the declining enrollment, since we began as freshmen in 1982, has allowed for more flexibility in Brockton High. He claims that because of this decline, there will be a higher concentration on ba- sic skills in the very near fu- ture. The Superintendent be- lieves that the general popu- lation of the students has a better attitude than they did since 1982. He feels that, the students care more they have a greater desire to learn -- there is more effort involved on each student's behalf. In conclusion, Mr. George thinks that Brockton High has a great deal to offer and, those students who have gotten involved aca- demically or socially have profited in the long run. Kimberly Hall

Mr. Argys was surprised at how easily the class of 1986 adjusted, con- sidering that we were caught in the middle of Proposition Zh. He feels that because the class is well-direct- ed , it has risen above all the adversi- ty and has strived to make BHS a better school. Mr. Argys' advice to every member of the class of 1986 is, It's a good world out there-try to make it a bet- ter one. Kimberly Hall Dr. Claire M. Appling Mr. Chris D. Argys It is well known that the Yellow Building has a great deal of pride in its students and their accomplish- ments. A large portion of that pride can be attributed to the housemaster in the Yellow, Dr. Claire Appling. She recognizes the need for school spirit and nurtures it through her students, until it reaches its full po- tential. Dr. Appling feels that, the seniors have contributed through their coo- peration in sharing talents in drama, music, and art, with others. They have showen industriousness in vol- unteer efforts with Key Club, peer counseling and numerous other areas. This has resulted in a positive effect - it has made the school a better place. She believes that, The class of 1986 has actively contributed to school spirit and kept the theme, 'The Pride Is Alive', paramount. Through membership and leadership shown in senate and class activities and school-sponsored clubs, the class has demonstrated a genuine concern for making BHS the bestlv
