s I speaking of Academics What was your most challeng- ing class and why? My most challenging class is English III because there is more homework and classwork than any other class I have. — Matt Elam, 1 1 Algebra II, because it ' s a chal- lenge everyday trying to talk Mr. Croghan into giving me a good grade. — Lynlee Bybee, 1 1 Algebra II tough class. Hard work and homework every night. — Jenica Keller, 10 Anatomy because there is a lot of memorizing involved, and the essay questions are long. — Car- rie Quinn, 1 1 Trigonometry in my junior year. — Margie Gornik, 12 Rhetoric for Mrs. Crumb. She didn ' t give us the answers. She made us find them ourselves. Al- so she gives much homework. — Kelly Nichols, 12 A. P. Government. It ' s the only class that actually requires me to study for the test. — Michelle Hill, ' 12 Biology. — Eric Wolfe, 10 Drama, it allowed me to be- come a different character almost everyday of the week. — Jeff McCracken, I I Algebra II because it ' s alge- bra. — Aaron Gumms, 1 1 Algebra II because I never have understood how a +b =c ' — Christine Peterson, 12 Trig. It reaches things you can ' t and don ' t want to under- stand. — Mike Williams, 12 Algebra II. I guess I have some sort of a brain block allowing me to get 40 ' s and below on all tests of importance. ' — Tami Dell ' Ergo, 12 I60d

HPO kcent WORKING TOWARD SUCCESS. Syllable by syllable you were taught to speak and spell the big tough word ACADEMICS in last years OFF THE WALL. You had an entire year to practice only to find out that the title . . . Clubs and Academics had been changed to Involve- ment. Involvement was what clubs and academics were all about. If you hadn ' t participated, these two words wouldn ' t have exist- ed. In fact, school wouldn ' t have existed, or at least not in the manner that it does today. Now that the point is across, and you completely understand the reason for changing the title, a closer look can be taken in on these two essential necessities. Clubs were organized to sat- isfy your individual interests. Al- though there were some students who just wanted their picture in their yearbook, there were the students who dedicated a major- ity of their to be time involved in clubs. In fact, when it did come around to taking club pictures, there was a rough average of ap- proximately fifty students who belonged to at least seven clubs and even served as President or Vice President for that matter. These students were highly rec- ognized. When speaking of that diffi- cultly pronounced word, ACA- DEMICS, many students didn ' t have any idea as to what it meant, (a brief definition: any class that you took throughout the school year. Example: English II, Geom- etry, Rhetoric, and even Physics.) With this definition you now recognize its purpose in an ed- ucational facility such as Carson High School. Need there be more said.
