JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY Our Junior year began with our class eagerly anticipat- ing the excitement of the year ahead, especially Home- coming Week and our Junior Prom. Being upperclassmen, we accepted the role as school leaders and elected as our officers: Jeff Frisch — President, Mary Ruberti — Vice- President. Jane Santoro — Secretary and Amy Jewett — Treasurer. The weeks passed rapidly and in preparation for Home- coming we chose as our theme: “We May Never Pass This Way Again . Our class coordinated Spirit Week activities and the Class of 1 98 1 reigned supreme as the Most Spirited Class for the third consecutive year. During the Fall the C.H.S. band, twirlers, and flag corps went to North Adams to appear in competition. It was a worthwhile experience, as it showed us the fine quality bands in our state. In April, the annual Interclass Drama- tics was held and our class selected “Disco Craze” for its presentation. Being more experienced we hoped to win, but our efforts were surpassed by the Seniors who won the competition. However, two members of our class were honored for their performances: Denise Foster was chosen Best Actress and Susan Kolifrath was selected Best Supporting Actress. The C.H.S. softball team provided the school with a championship team as it captured the Midland League Title, the nucleus of the team was composed of members of our class. The highlight of the school year was our Junior Prom at the Sheraton-Tara in Framingham, MA. It was a castle of dreams and we will long remember dancing to the music of “Glass Leaf’ who played our theme: “We’ve Got To- nite”. At graduation activities in June three members of our class were honored for their academic excellence: Christ- ine Carr, Harvard Book Award; Carolyn Jaeger, Harvard Book Award; Timothy Murphy, Holy Cross Book Award. As the year came to an end, we had recorded many pleasant memories and anticipated our Senior year and the many challenges ahead for us.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Our senior year at C.H.S. began with the realization that our golden moments as high school students were entering their final stage. In late September, we elected officers to lead us for the year ahead: Jeff Frisch, President; Shawn Moran, Vice- I President; Jane Santoro, Secretary; and Amy Jewett, Treasurer. Before we knew it. Spirit Week was upon us and the other classes were determined to end our domination of Spirit Week Festivities. Spirit Week activities ended with a rally on Halloween day and, as fate would have it, the Ghost of Halloween swiped our title as Most Spirited, as the Junior Class won the overall competition. In the next few weeks our thoughts turned to future events — our final mid-year exams, our Senior Hop, and the Interclass Dramatics program. The rigors of exam week in late January left us exhausted, but happy that high school mid-years were now a thing of the past. During February and early March we prepared for our Senior Hop and Interclass Dramatics competition. Our class selected “Imagine” for our Senior Hop theme which was held at Turner Hall in March. As was expected, it was a success. A few days before our Senior Hop, the Interclass Dramatics was held and our presentation was a comedy entitled, “Ada Gives First Aid”. Our dream of winning best play was not achieved, as the Juniors won. However, two of our cast members were honored with awards. Ann DeForge was selected Best Actress and Susan Kolifrath was selected Best Supporting Actress. The fourth quarter of our Senior year passed very rapidly and we completed our high school days with an exciting Senior Week that included Baccalaureate, a class trip to Oak’n-Spruce in Lee, MA., a class banquet at the White Cliffs in Northboro, and finally Graduation Day. And now we say good-bye, leaving this yearbook, the 1981 “Memorabilia,” as the official record of our life and times at Clinton High.
