The sound was a sound of dedication. This dedication pro- duced music, thus producing a team, the Carson High School Band. The music heard was the band, practicing for various events. The band started off with a number somewhere close to 57 members at the beginning of the year, and graoually de- creased to 42. Tne band was mainly composed of a brass section.

Living i =- eal World Students may have overheard some seniors in the nails talking about CVE. Hopefully, they didn ' t think it was a social disease, although it was something quite common that struck seniors. Mr. Spofford has taught in this pro- gram for 13 years. The program has been around for almost 20 years. CVE was designed for seniors who wished to take half a day of classes and work the rest of the day for school credit. About 250 students enrolled in this year ' s program. Some may have thought CVE was an easy way out of classes for half a day, but the truth soon became clear. Students enrolled in CVE were re- quired to come in once a week of morn- ing workshops at the early hour of 7 a.m. The purpose of these morning workshops was to monitor the student ' s progress in the work world. During the morning study, different skills were brought out and studied, such as attitude and work habits. Students were taught to set goals, identify their skills, to make decisions and to plan career school goals. Students who enrolled in this program were graded by their employers each nine week grading period. Senior John Wilson used the computer to help him make some college choices. These programs were available in the Career Resource Center. Seniors John Dekeokkoek and Rob Baker help one another on their required CVE projects. 162
