New Beginnings Graduation, for several years, seemed like a dream that would never arrive. Many mixed emotions are brought out on this day; some students are glad to see their high school days come to an end yet will miss the security and friendly faces. The largest graduating class of Conner, the class of 1987, slowly began their march into the silenced gym on May 27,1987, to end their twelve years of hard work and to begin their new experiences waiting ahead of them. The direction in which all these young people will go in their lives will be very divergent. Some students will go to college to pursue a study which will lead them to their chosen field of work, while others already have a job lined up. A few will go into the Armed Forces; some will get married. Still yet there are others who are undecided. On this honored occasion, the guest speaker. Judge Executive Bruce Ferguson, gave his sincere advice and best wishes to the class. This anxiously awaited day had finally become a reality as the 270 students walked the never-ending-aisle, or so it seemed, to receive their hard earned diploma. Following this. Superintendant, Mr. Larry Ryle, pronounced and congratulated the Class of 1987. The proud seniors then reached ner- vously for their dangling tassels shifting them from left to right. After the ceremonies, hugs, kisses, and sighs of relief could be seen and heard everywhere. Most seniors are now torn between looking back on the good memories and looking forward to the new experiences as they remember the good times and set aside the bad. This ending commences the Key to a New Beginning. 1. Kristi Gouge gladly receives her diploma. 2. James Freeman gets help with his hat. 3. Singing the Senior Alma Mater are Alisa Mokas, Jennifer Poole, and Dawn Price. 4. Shannon Bay is relieved that her diploma is final- ly in her hands. 5. These sen- iors, Tracy Crowder, Vikki Dick- ins, Terri Dinser, Tami Dolin, Krista Donley, and Teresa Eagle wait patiently for commence- ment to begin. 6. Making sure their diploma is his stands Mike Timberlake. Graduation 127
