My acting instructor pushed worth, and this pushed me to Maria Crowley -' SPECIAL TALENTS l can be myself- Danielle Deubel lf a closer look had been taken, it would have proven that many students who seemed normal were actually quite differ- ent, different in that they possessed spe- cial or hidden talents. These various tal- ents included such activities as clogging, modeling, bowling, singing, and baton twirling. Students were doing anything and everything for fun and excitement. l en- joy singing, it makes me feel good in- side, commented Michelle l-laulbrook. While some were performing talents for entertainment, others were performing for relaxation. Governor's Honors Program participant in art, Jeff Gragg, stated, Dra wing helps me to relax and forget my worries for a while. Along with an interest came practice for perfection. Practice was a necessity to make that talent its best, School cut out practice time for some, but it also offered 44 Talents time to others. l 'm glad Campbell offers me a chance to practice through the cho- rus program, commented pianist, Beth Hendrix. Moreover, the Osborne program of- fered additional classes to the directed student. Students were offered a variety of vocational classes at Osborne. These classes ranged from woodworking to drafting. Danielle Deubel said, When l'm drafting l feel a sense of accomplishment. l can be myself Another element associated with pos- sessing and using a talent was learning to accept constructive criticism. ln this day and time, everyone is criticized for some- thing, so when l get criticized l try to learn from my criticism, commented soloist, Michele Scoggins.

,INSURING SAFETY My parents worry about my safety - Karen Rheney Rules and regulations are the founda- tions of society. Students are faced with regulations in school and in the home. The purpose of rules and regulations in public schools, commented Assistant Principal, Mrs. Judy Whaley, is to pre- pare students for adult life. Our rules and regulations are a reflection of those types of rules faced in society. Regulations were needed in order to preserve some form of order. The senior class showed us they were responsible enough to honor our present rules, and in turn were granted more freedom as a class, stated school Principal, Robert L. Ash. A new regulation, dealing with tardies to homeroom, was enacted midway through the first semester. The policy became necessary in order to insure con- sistency. lf an adult habitually shows up to work late, then he is released. We are just trying to prepare the students for these types of instances by requiring them to be consistently prompt to home- room, said Assistant Principal, Mrs. - Judy Whaley. in the home, regulations were used for protection. My parents worry about my safety, so they set curfews and other rules for me. l respect them for that because it shows me that they really care, com- mented senion Karen Rheney. Rules and regulations were applied and enforced to assure one thing, safety. g 4 2 I Princhnal Mrs, Judy Whaley writes earhf dismissal after a parental check.
