Unsung Heroes Throughout our school days there has been that outstanding athlete, or the ge- nius of the class, and even the most popu- lar guy or girl of the student body. These type of people seem to go far in life; they are the ones who receive scholarships and awards because of their talents. Many people feel that the middle man, or the average student never gets ahead, but here at Conner the students take a differ- ent view. Conner has its popular athletes etc., but we also acknowledge the teenagers that work diligently to balance both their study and extracurricular activities. 1.

Kathy is involved in the Spanish Club, Science Club, the National Honor Society, and is also an Office Aide.

Time After Time Through the years of growing up you tend to forget many of those fun and sad times. A few refreshers are all you may need to stir the many memories stored in your heart. Like the times on Christmas morning you received the presents you asked for, or hunting Easter Eggs on a sun- ny Easter Sunday. There were incidents when your par- ents had questioned faces, remember how protective they were when you were out playing, all the times they tried to teach you how to tie your shoes, and your dreams of being on your own seemed un- reachable. Finally there are teenage years where having friends and that special someone are all very important. Though your par- ents may still not understand you, with more guidance you are sure to make it on your own. 1. Angie Mobley and Mickey Clore share Christmas together in 1986. 2. Carie Moore and Amy Schaller enjoy the spring fever with the Easter Bunny. 3. Claire May, Amy Schaller, and Matt Tanner take time to play on the Monkey Bars. 4. Shannon Merrell assists Bill Dillion in tying his shoe. 5. Haley Ammon, Scott Luck, Kristen Hughes and Kevin Hamilton need to get their dates straightened out. Long Long Ago You still believed in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny ... you know better now. Your mom picked out your clothes ... and dressed you in those awful bell bottom pants. It was Great to be allowed to say up past 9:30 pm .. . now you don't come home until 12:30 am You thought you'd never like boys girls . . . now you spend every extra minute with them. You always wanted to help your parents ... now they have to tell you 3 times to do anything. You were never old enough . . . now you're not young enough. What is the perfect age? You used to behave in class . . . now you goof off. 36 Seniors ♦ ♦ Remember When . . It was so easy to get A's and B's in school . . . now you have to study all the time. You thought it would be a big deal to have a job . . . now you hate it and want to quit. You could only see PG movies with your parents now they should see what you watch. You got your first bike . . . Now all you want is a car. You used to get up at 8:00 on Saturday mornings watch cartoons . . . now you sleep until noon. You used to say Gosh twelve whole years of school to go ... now this is the end. You cried on the first day of school . . . now you'll cry on the last.
