Ask yourself the question, What is TIME? Everyone has their own definition for TIME. TIME could mean the minutes on a watch. It also can mean the different decades in a century. TIME means a multitude of things to different individuals. The Annual Staff picked TIME because our job is to record the TIMES that happ ed in the 1978-79 school year. We did this by photographs, but also written words to help each one recall the times that happened. The cover of the '79 Bison Annual represents the changes in TIME. Our styles in dress, technology, and lifestyles have changed consid- erably. Think about the TIME past, the change to TIME present, and what TIME future will bring us. The sections in this yearbook are recording the present. The first section is entitled Student Life. In this, we have tried to capture TIME from 8:45 to 3:35, the average night life of the student, and the things that meant the most to us. Through the school year we've laughed, cried, loved and shared many memories together. There is one thing to remember about time. The gift of TIME is life A life is a wonderful thing, but only if you share the laughter, love, and even tears with others. Sincerely, Student Life 1 TIME 148 Ads 151 Activities 59 Faculty 135 Seniors 23 Underclassmen 99 Organizations 39 Elementary 115 ME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME We are close to the end of the 1970's. We look back over the years and see a lot of changes that TIME has brought us. A lot of new fads were brought in during the 78-79 school year. A few of those would include the change from the 52 Chevy's to the fast and sporty cars. Hairstyles have changed from long and straight to afros, feathered bangs and the layered look. Clothing has changed a lot from mini skirts to dresses below the knees and blue jeans. Pleated pants, velour tops, and the plum color really made it big, too. Dancing has changed in the 70's. The type of dancing we have now is known as Disco. LAST OF THE 70’S Finishing A Decade Everyone looks forward to graduation. Now in the last of the 70's the seniors of 1979 are finishing a decade and be- ginning to start a new decade as well as beginning an en- tirely new life The seniors see that it is sort of scary experi- ence, especially for those who have yet to seek what the future has in store. The future frightens some, yet thrills others who have their life patterns laid out and know what they're getting into. If we could turn TIME back and start over again, would we try harder, start thinking about the future sooner? TIME has passed . . . there's no turning back . . . just a future to think about. . . and a great year to top off the 1970's. 2 TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TI ME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME CLASSROOMS The Green Prison We were in the classrooms from 8 45 to 3:35 just about everyday in the years of 78- 79 In class there was a TIME to be serious and work, a TIME to have fun and have a few good laughs In class we sat, so secluded, surrounded by four green walls. Some- how we have managed to make it through the year with our yawns and forty winks . Some shall come again to sit inside these green classrooms, yet some will never see the smiling faces of classmates or hear the voices of teachers assigning homework over the weekend, or ever see these green walls again. No matter how good or bad the classrooms were, we will always remember some of the TIMES that happened in the classrooms. ME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME NIGHT LIFE A Sample Night It was Friday night and we were all in town. Each doing our own thing and going our own way. Part of us went to the football game as the players, cheerleaders, or just fans. Others headed out to the drive'n and watched a good movie, (or at least listened to it). Some of us cruised the square. Honked at our friends and occasionally squeeled our tires. A couple of us felt challenging so we played a few games of foosball or snooker. (The loser paid) When the energy got low we headed out to the Snack Shack and the Hip Pocket to refuel Then we were off again, each doing his own thing, going his own way. 6 AVERAGE PRICES IN 1979 Lunch....................00.45 Can of Coke..............00.30 Shoes....................20.00 Fooseball................00.25 Gas......................00.58 Cigarettes...............00.55 Levi's...................15.99 Candy bar..............00.25 Class Ring.............60-80 Pin Ball...............00.25 Car.....................5000 Lip Gloss...............2.50 Records.................6.95 Pack of Gum ............00.20 Bubble Gum..............00.02 Juke Box................2 .25 (Skoal) Chewing Tobacco............49 8 Track Tape.............7.25 VIE TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME LUNCH The Twenty-Five Minute Break Lunch was a TIME where everyone rushed to either the cafeteria or the Snack Bar before a fero- cious line formed. It was also the TIME where you can sit back and relax between your classes. Lunch is the TIME you had a chance to talk to your friends and discuss last nights game, the party you went to, or the show you watched. It's also a TIME at which you could do that last minute as- signment you forgot about. The food was less than exotic. Our diet consisted of luscious cheesebur- gers and greasy donuts to peanut butter cinnamon rolls and fish crispies. Gordon Miller entertained us in the Snack Bar with his singing. Lunch was the TIME that everyone thought there wasn't enough TIME to eat, yet you got so much talking accomplished. Then they wondered Why didn't we have more TIME to eat? VIE TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME FRIENDS They make the world go ’round Friends are the people who are always there when you need ther They are around any TIME or anywhere you need a shoulder to cry o or someone to share your !au9hter with. They share both the good TIMES and the bad, the happy and the sad A friend sees you as a person with more virtues than faults 11 PARKING-LOT The parking lot is something almost everyone saw every day. You don't start using the parking lot until you are a Junior and a Senior. Your Sophomore year you spend looking at the parking lot and drooling at all the new and latest hot rods. Wondering how fast it will get through the quarter and wonder what size of engine is under the hood. You've probably heard someone say, You've got my parking place.'' With the reply being, Well, it doesn't have your name on it. Most of the cars and trucks are parked in about the same places daily. Girls put down sunvisors, look in the same mirror, and comb the hair and put on the makeup that they didn't have time to do earlier. To some the parking lot is a place to meet your girlfriend or boyfriend every morning so that you can walk holding hands up toward the big doors of our school. ME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME ME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME DANCES Fun and Laughter TIME TI ME TIME TIME TIME TI ME TIME TIME TI The question arises, “Was school always as boring as some people had put it up to be? We were caught exchanging for- bidden conversations on paper during the teachers boring lec- tures and using the lunch table in the cafeteria as a freeway for speeding peas that you were flipping at your enemies. Those were the sun spots of fun standing out in the darkness and drudgery of five days of school each week. We always looked forward to those weekends when we could see our friends up town and at the high school dances. Friends brought us the laughter we shared together and they created the good times we had. During a school year we have several dances Think back on the dance when you and your partner felt as if you were the only people in the world. You felt that the dance floor was yours, and you “bumped your blues away while getting caught up in the fascinating lights and the rhythm of the mu- sic. All of a sudden, you miss your partners hip. Embarrassed for a moment, then laughing with the crowd. The sense of unity appeared again. Looking back on the school year of 1978-79 we find that the boredom is still there but a sense of fun and unity that we've shared together makes the boredom seem as a grain of sand in a vast desert. Looking back on what we did; memories of fun and good TIMES; the laughter still echoes through the halls of our minds; as the school year is ending. Memories replace today; as we look back from tomorrow' among the classes and the ball games we shared; Filled with happiness and sorrow. TIME is filled with memories; and our life is filled with TIME: so as the year is coming to a close; another year of memories has been packed into our minds. What is a memory? A memory is a small piece of TIME with meaning. It is the meaning of close friendships, of roaring laughter, and of falling tears. It is the meaning of the TIMES we won, and of the TIMES we lost. It is the meaning of the past, for without the past we could not have, memories . . . ME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIME TIMI 17 Bison King and Queen Time Honored ('tim-;an-8rd) adj. Honored because of age and established respectability. Each year the Annual Staff has the responsibility of nominating senior candidates for Bison King and Queen These candidates are voted on by a committee of teachers and students who have known them during their high school years. Were they involved in school activities? Did they work and strive to meet goals set for themselves? Did they have school spirit and make good grades? These questions helped us to pick Virginia Holt and Russell Brethower as Bison King and Queen. Annual Staff chose to take the photographs at the D A. Mallory Elementary to distinguish the difference from grade school TIMES to high school TIMES.

DON'T QUIT When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all uphill, When the funds are low and the debts too high. And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit— Rest if you must, but don't quit. Often the struggler has given up When he might have captured the victor's cup; And he learned too late When the night came down, How close he was to the golden crown. Success is failure turned inside out— So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit, It's when things seem worst that you must'nt quit. Anon. 38 39 STUBffHIT COUNCIL The Student Council has been a big plus to the Buffalo High School this year. They have been eager and will- ing to take on any endeavor that would help Buffalo High School. The council has worked hard at improving school spirit and student involvement. They have been interested, loyal, or- ganized, and conscientious. As their sponsor it has been a pleasure and a joy working with the Stu-Co. 1978- 79. Mr. Floyd Willis Freshman class officers: President-Beth Atteberry, Secretary-Treasurer, Carol Sufficool, Representatives, Jill Gilpin and Kimi Caswell. Sophomore class officers: President-Susan Kelsch, Sec- retary-Treasurer, Jeanie Freeman, Representatives, Deana Nimmo and Jackie Andrews. 40 Junior class officers: President—Joanne Ratcliffe, Secre- tary-Treasurer, Susan Freeman, Representatives, Marsha Brown and Teresa Garrison. Student Body Officers: President—Joy Bennett, V-President; Tony Sample, Secretary-Treasurer, Donna Nyberg. Another busy year in the life of Buffalo High School's Student Council. They set out to accomplish many things this year, and they did it. Stu-Co started out by errecting a new lighted activity sign in front of the school. They've done a good job of keeping the commu- nity posted on school activities. Other activities spon- sored by Stu-Co were a slave auction, where they sold themselves to raise money for M.D. and to send fruit baskets to the nursing homes. The football Parade, ti- ger, roast, fun assemblies, Chrisumas Dance, Hat Day, T-Shirt Day and Fabulour Fifty Day were only part of the many Stu-Co sponsored activities this year. One of the biggest Stu-Co activities was the Channel-21 Auc- tion Drive where Stu-Co acted as chairmen of the Buf- falo area Go Getters ' The reason for undertaking this Chairmanship was because the PBS station is widely used in-throughout the school system. Stu-Co's main goal this year was to raise School Spirit. Proof of this is shown in voter turn-out. Voter percentage was doubled this year, led by the Freshman Class. Student Council would like to thank Mr. Floyd Willis for his time, sup- port, and help throughout this TIME. Senior Class officers: President Bobby Nunn, Secretary-Trea- surer, Mark Roberts, Representative, Dave Shepperly, V-Presi- dent, Virginia Holt. 41 vur i msir Glee Club and Mixed Chorus, do you remember this daily ritual: DO- RE- ME-FA-SO-LA-TI-DO. The Vocal Music classes at BHS utilized much of their time preparing for the annual Christmas and Spring Concerts. They also practiced dili- gently for the District and State Music Contests which are held annually. Another activity of Mixed Chorus and Glee Club this year included a fund-raising chili supper, which was a complete success. The proceeds from this project went toward the purchase of new choir robes. Glee Club Mixed Chorus iMJBir CLUB One of the new clubs on campus this year was Music Club. This club con- sists of freshman thru senior vocal and instrumental music students. The purpose of Music Club is to further an interest in all phases of music, to encourage improvement in scholarship, and to serve the school and com- munity through their musical abilities. Music Club raised money in various ways for such things as the music ban- quet, letters, medals, and helped pay for their new choir robes. Officers: Virginia Holt, president; Tommy Roby, vice-president; Susan Free- man, secretary; Gwenna Reed, treasurer; Donna Nyberg and Trisha Saun- ders, representatives; Suzanne Powers, sponsor.

CLQVNf TfiOUPf What has forty-two legs, twenty-one multi- colored faces, and wears pajamas? Can you guess? It was the '78-'79 Clowne Troupe. This year, unlike last year, Clowne Troupe was open to any high school member who wanted to try out. Members this year in- cluded; Jennie Ratcliffe, Lori Parker Paro, Bobby Applegate, Kathy Holcomb, Jo Atwa- ter, Sally Roberts, Lynn Wolfe, Peggy McKeel, Kathy Yates, Joanne Ratcliffe, Beth Cantlon, Cheris Wingo, Melissa Kay, Melinda Kay, Christy Beltz, Wendy Jones, Shelly Hamlet, Gloria Ray, Margaret Parks, Mary Hatcher, and Laura Ritter. Clowne Troupe participated in the Football Homecoming As- sembly and Parade. They had other activities planned for the months of December and January. Bad weather, however, prevented these activities. All and all, the clowns en- joyed bringing a few more laughs into the lives of all that saw them perform. Parlez vous francaise? Does it all sound Greek to you? Actually, it is French. French Club consisted of eleven people this year, slightly smaller than last year. Members of the club are pictured to the right.

GERMAN CLUB FRENCH CLUE 51 art CLUB THE Buffalo High School Art Club students working together to serve our school and community through the media of our artistic abilities. The members of the BHS Art Club this year came from both Art 1 and Art II classes, and included people who were first year members all the way to a few third year members. Whatever the abil- ity and experience all the members worked hard together throughout the year on a number of projects for both school and community. The beginning of the school year found Art Club members working to- gether with Music Club for a Fine Arts Float in the Football Festival Parade; and Art Club members played an impor- tant role in the 1978 PTA Carnival by assisting with stage decorations. The BHS Art Club has participated in vari- ous art exchanges with other schools, the annual Buffalo Christmas Parade, they helped spread the Christmas spirit by decorating the BHS campus in De- cember, held an Art Show for the PTA in February, and presented the high school with a school crest for per- manent display. Second and Third year Art Club Members First year Art Club Members LIBMEW CLUB The purpose of this organization is mainly to improve the library services of the school. Club members are students grades 7-12 who work daily in the library during their study hall, checking out books, shelfing books and helping students find information. The Buffalo Library Club is a member of a statewide organization called Epsilon Beta (keepers of the library.) MEMBERS: Janet Rackley, Deana Nimmo, Doyle Sherrer, Rick Robison, Kay Cantlon, Debbie Whitney, Terri Bartee, Tammy Zimmerman, Lori Cox, Dennis Clark, Martha Craighead, Yvonne Cum- mings, Denise Davis, Cheryl Dugan, Doug Durrington, Debbie Goosey, Chris Hackler, Terri Hackler, Donna Henderson, Kathy Holcomb, Ronda Jasper, Karen Spence, Alfred Wood. LIBRARY CLUB OFFICERS 53 FHA is a group of high school girls helping our community and preparing themselves for life after high school. This year FHA had a total of sixty members. Almost every member played a part in raising funds for such things as Cystic Fibrosis and putting on the Back To School Dance. Tammy Franklin, FHA President, stated, FHA's membership has dropped slightly from last year, but the participation in FHA related ac- tivities is just as good or better than the past. First Year FHA Members Fourth Year FHA Members The Junior Staff Members are Kim Smith, Yvonne Cummings, Becky Bates, Sheri Mahoney, Brenda Hendrickson, Gwenna Reed. The 1978-79 Annual Staff had a busy schedule this year to try to present the best annual that B.H.S. has ever had. The Staff started out with a kick-off assembly. The theme for the annual sales was Have You Got Yours?” (pertaining to the an- nual, of course). Sales peaked to a high: Everyone was out looking for Theirs”! The Annual Staff members sacrificed many hard-working hours of Saturdays, after school, and holi- days. Through the Staffs' efforts the members hope to achieve the best annual EVER! 57 REP CLUB SENIORS JUNIORS SENIORS—Jo Atwater, Donna Barber (Sec.-Treas.), Deann Eby, Tammy Franklin (Pres.), Becky Fritchey, Vickie Goodwin (Rep.), Cindy Jasper, Cheryl Killian, Karen Owsley, Brenda Taylor.

HIGH ROYALTY The PTA Carnival took in the most money in carnival history. Events leading up to carnival night, such as the Slurp-A-Thon, Kissing Booth, Sponge Throw, Radio Raffle, Car Wash, and Bake Sales contributed to the money intake. Competition was at its best in the high school. This was shown by the numerous amount of cakes. The winners of the Far Eastern Carnival were as follows: High School Royalty; Terry Shewmaker and Lori Parker. Jr. High Royalty; Marty Hawkins and Corina Crabtree. D.A.

CHRISTMAS Christmas spirit was bountiful on campus. Art Club decorated the windows and doors. Disco fever was hot at the Christmas Dance sponsored by Student Council. Lateresa Harmon and her date won the disco contest. On Christmas Spirit Day, students wore red and green. Council members were sold as Santa's Helper's. The money raised went to charity funds. Principal, Floyd Willis participated as an elf, also. He wore a pink dress, earrings and tennis shoes. Mis- tletoe day was also celebrated. Voter turnout for Miss Merry Christmas was large. Freshman candidate, Jane Roos, was elected Miss Merry Christmas. Her attendants were Valery Burd, senior; Donna Nyberg, junior; and Shelly Hamlet, sophomore. MISS MERRY CHRISTMAS, Jane Roos 66 67 1979 BASKETBALL FESTIVAL The Fabulous Fifties This year school spirit had stu- dents wearing bobbie sox, and saddle oxfords, long skirts, large sweaters, rolled up jeans, t-shirts, and pony tails. Oh, yes, let's not forget those adorable fellows who poured grease on their heads, combed back their hair, and slid through the rest of the day. The scene just described set the theme for the 1979 Basketball Homecoming. Shelly Hamlet and Ralph Burrell brought the most noise from the audience to win the two best dressed while Sam Dryer crowned Tammy Franklin 1979 Basketball Festival Queen.

We spend lots of TIME together and gain alot of memories. These two pages contain the faces of our TIMES. 72 73 Donkey Basketball On the night of February 3, there was a lot of action and excitement kicked at B.H.S. At the donkey basket- ball game, there was never a dull moment. Everyone, in- cluding the donkeys, had a great time. These competing were the FFA Juniors and Seniors, Louisberg Vo-tech faculty, Mr. Burson along with the second FFA team, and the FHA girls. The FFA Juniors and Seniors won. The donkeys were fur- nished by Crosby's Donkey Basketball. 74 75 ®tj00n ®tm Jffnntball OtJiott SEPTEMBER Rapping It Up August 15 .. . hot . . . muggy . . . running . . . kicking . .. running . . . blocking . . . running . . . receiving . . . the first day of official football prac- tice. The weather conditions of late August were not desirable for the drills Coach Warren Kennedy would need to have the athletes run to pre- pare them for the upcoming season. Besides having to work around the men who were building our new track, our players and coaches had to rebuild a team. Many of them had never worked together before and were unsure of each other. They had just sixteen days to prepare for the first game of the season. The playing season opened Sep- tember first with the Bisons traveling to Lebanon. The players were pre- pared for the duration. School spirit was at a high that had been absent for a period of TIME. Cheerleaders led the largest Pep Club in a number of years. Despite the spirit, we lost 17-0. Camdenton was our next con- tender. This Friday nights' ritual was to be on our home turf. With losing to Camdenton last year, 40-0, our young athletes practiced longer 76 1978 SEASON NOVEMBER FOOTBALL EDITION 1978 SEASON FOOTBALL EDITION and harder. We scored for the first time this year when Terry Shew- maker connected with flanker Mike Peace with a 30-yard touchdown pass. We scored again when Larry Richardson scooped-up a fumbled ball and ran for an 87 yard touch- down. Despite our efforts we lost, but held last years runner-up 3A State Football Champs to a 20-12 decision. We lost our first two conference games with Ozark and Rogersville at home. After losing the first four games, enthusiasm was still high. Our losses were attributed to the com- pounded injuries on the Varsity squad. Most of the injuries were caused in practice as well as in actual games. Other attributing factors were inexperienced returning let- termen, the loss of three year start- ing graduates, and rookie Seniors. The last home game before Foot- ball Festival was played against El Dorado Springs. Scoring in this ball- game was Russell Brethower when he caught a kick-off and charged for- ward 85 yards for a touchdown. John Janke crashed into the end zone for two more points. El Dorado Springs ended up on top, 20-8. Bisons hit the road playing Confer- ence teams Marshfield and Willard, but fell behind in both games making their record 0-7. October 20th we faced Republic in our Football Festival bout. Student Council sponsored several activities which boosted school soul. Football play- ers were grand marshalls of the Festival Parade. At the game the players and par- ents were honored. The crowd was large and enthusiasm filled the air, which help- ed Bisons score the most points in one game than they had all year. We lost the game, but it didn't matter, because the events up to the game and the Festival dance were a success and everyone enjoy- ed themselves. 78 FOOTBALL EDITION 1978 SEASON On the road again we faced Bolivar our biggest school rival. We lost in the cold temperatures. Our last game of the season faced Branson on their turf. We lost but added a new school rival. A quote that has meaning to the 1978 football season: Without a sec- ond place team there would be no num- ber one. Even though we were a num- ber two team, our players never let down, were good sports, and kept a good attitude. Anybody can win . . . but it takes a real man to lose.

Hesitantly, he bounces the ball as he makes his way to the top of the key. With sudden ease he rushes to the goal and . .. SLAM DUNK! The 1978-79 Basketball Season had begun. Head basketball coach, Marty Garrison, has suicides, stairs, and many drills in store for his team. This was not a winning season for the Bisons. Our first game was with Waynesville on their home court. We lost, 46 to 63, but this did not hurt the fighting spirit of the Bi- sons. Throughout the season they fought with undieing enthusiasm and devotion. In taking a look at the scorebooks, the record is not pleasing to the eye; 7 games were won with 19 losses. How- ever, you must consider that these were not landside losses.

This averages out to roughly three points per game. Even though we were not victorious the games proved to be a good spectator sport. These small marginal losses gave us confidence that we could come back and win. One of the more exciting games we played was with the Ozark Tigers. Ozark had won every game in the Central Ozark Conference. The Bisons gave them a run for their money. When the final buzzer sounded, they had won by only one point. We finished the C.O.C. games with the Marshfield Bluejays. The court was hot . . . the players were hot ... we won with a sizzling score of 79 to 54. An unwelcomed pattern seemed to haunt the Bison ballclub. The team showed their colors through the first and second quarters, but during the third quarter they seemed to lose ground. The result is our many, small marginal losses. In our last battle on the court, we played Central, the first seated team, in the Regional Tournament. We surprised everyone by being on top when going into the locker room at half time. We gave the Central Bulldogs a fight for their seat by keeping the point spread from two to four point until the final score showed our loss, 52 to 58. The losing season is contributed to several causes. The main problem was the lack of varsity experience with only one returning varsity member. With football season ending before basketball season hardly began there were several injuries left to heal.

BASKETBALL 1978-79 SEASON a leader and our basketball team lacked the essential leadership of that one prominent player. Defensively the team didn't show it's potential, but offen- sively they looked good at TIMES. The offensive downfall was that they were not accurate with outside shooting and didn't drive to the bucket often enough. In an interview with Coach Garrison, he had good things to say about his se- nior players. 6'2 Center, Russell Breth- ower was a consistent player and did exactly what was needed of him. 6'3 Forward, Mike Peace was a good de- fensive player. 5'10 Guard, John Janke was the best ball handler of the senior group. 5'8 Guard, Dave Shepperly showed his potential when Coach Garri- son classified him as the best all-around player in six or seven of the ballgames. 6'1 Center, Blake Gilpin and 6'3 For- ward, Mark Roberts held the best atti- tude of the group and helped keep team spirit going. Next year's main concern is the post- man, but Garrison has good outlooks for next year's team. He will have five returning experienced varsity members: Earl Wallace, Danny Pierce, Sam Dryer, Pat Blair, and Greg Hicks. Several of the JV players look promising for the next season. Boys sports has not been what we had anticipated and hoped for this year. Although we would have liked more wins, the sportsmanlike conduct that our athletes held with high esteem has not been matched in TIMES past. 86 SCOREBOARD Buffalo Opponent Score 44 Lebanon 75 55 Branson 66 63 Skyline 51 46 Waynesville 63 57 Ozark 73 50 Republic 53 60 Bolivar 61 44 Camdenton 53 56 Houston 61 62 Ava 47 37 Willard 40 53 Willard 50 57 Branson 67 43 Rogersville 63 58 Ozark 59 42 Nixa 50 65 Richland 59 52 Waynesville 54 58 Republic 75 49 Willard 63 42 Branson 54 64 Marshfield 55 66 Bolivar 63 61 Rogersville 71 79 Marshfield 54 52 Central 58 Games Won Stann 0tm a Homena’ Sporta iEMtion VOLLEYBALL 1978 SEASON Volleyball We dig VOLLEYBALL!

Progress was the major pinnacle. An addition of a new school sign and usual up-keep of buildings was only a start. After many crossed fingers and the coming and going of bond issues Buffalo built and completed one of the finest equipped tracks in the con- ference. New and more efficient win- dows added to the rear and facade of the main high school building. 1978-79 was a TIME of change, and a TIME of progress. district vb i uuKrr OCT 30 NOV 4 137 HIGH SCHOOL FACULTY Since the theme of this yearbook is TIME, the faculty, in cooperation with the Annual Staff, dressed in different decades.
