—— We are all just ‘‘tourists”’ on the plane of life. The events of ‘81-'82 helped students come to a greater appreciation of this fact. For a senior class of 242, this year was the final land- ing at Burns. They showed that they intended to reach the stars with activi- ties such as the peanut sale that raised approximately $2000 for the prom. In- volvement kept them too busy to realize that this was the LAST year. The juniors, 309 strong, found themselves at a stop-over. Some where in between take-off and the final landing, they did not experience a burn out but kept busy preparing for their senior year. For 296 sophomores it was a turbulent year. Tak- ing ridicule from the upper classmen as well as making the adjustment from junior to senior high made this the toughest year of all. However, the class re- sponded well and got in- volved in everyday activi- ties. They proved that they could handle the ‘‘pres- sure” by placing second in the homecoming float contest, and by winning the “spirit stick” at the pep rally before the game with rival Shelby High. ‘‘Tourists’'’ — going through the moves, seeing the sights, and developing new horizons, — students gained a fresh perspective from the word ‘‘accom- plisnment”’. 124 Tourists —— ————————————————— Positive and negative drawings — what's that? Junior Amy Bar- rett demonstrates this as she does work on hers during Art Il. Joy Hawes, Student Council treasurer, has the sole respon- sibility of operating the school store each morning before homeroom. Joy tries to make change for a student who purchased a pencil so that she could be prepared for her classes.
