Darlington Academy - Kinesis Yearbook (Darlington, SC)

Text from Pages 1 - 104 of the 1975 volume:

The seniors sit together at pep rallies to cheer. What do you think of the sophomore boys’ Christmas tree? Darlington Academy is unique to public schools, and by itself, in several ways. We are close as a school. We feel as if we are one. Our school has a low ratio of teachers to students. In the high school alone, we have an incredible ratio of one to thirteen. This enables the students to get more help from their teachers; plus it lets them learn more in less time than it would take in a public school. The quality of education is also higher than that of public schools. Students in the Academy also have a lot of school spirit. There is a lot of par- ticipation towards clubs, sports, and school projects and functions, and also in the pep rallies. The classes themselves are always in competition to see who can make the best poster or shout the loudest at a pep rally. The students are gen- erally ambitious towards their studies, and make good use of their breaks and lunch periods to brighten up the monotonous days of books and notes. Pride is another factor of our school. We feel as if the school is a part of our belongings, and we take care of the buildings and join in on keeping'them clean. We have had a few students to win essay awards, testing awards, and honors from surrounding colleges. We’ve had Boys Staters and a free trip to Washington was awarded for an essay contest. We are proud of the accom- plishments of our school as it leaves its marks on the community. With the school being in a residential section, the students and the faculty respect the privacy and protection of these people and the children who are out in the streets a lot. The harmony between the school and the community shows how quiet community and a busy school can cope with one another’s need for existence. Never have the two come into conflict with each other. We are proud of this relationship and endeavor to continue the conditions that exist. The annual last year was dedicated to Lillian Goddard. The lower school assembly attracted parents as well as students. 3 The Jr. Sr. last spring came off with great success. Some more convincing facts deal with the grad- uating seniors. Since the school has been in opera- tion, all of the graduates have been accepted to the colleges of their preferences, and many have been accepted in two or three colleges. None of these students have been kicked out on grounds of poor or low grades or bad conduct. These factors make Darlington Academy and excellent place in which to learn and to enjoy go- ing to school. An inspiring atmosphere, the pride of the students, and the quality of education make Darlington Academy a neat place to go to school. When asked how they felt about school spirit, some of our students replied: I feel like the school spirit here is one big con- tribution in the unity and happiness among all of us. Our spirit is more than just yelling at a game. It’s having true confidence and the feeling of suc- cess in the activities we are involved in. When our school first opened, a lot of people didn’t think it would last. But we stuck by it all. It is because of our spirit and confidence that we came out on top. It was the same way with our clubs and our ath- letic programs when we were first beginning. The reason we kept on reaching in and putting out more and more effort is because we knew that we’s make it. And it’s really paying off. To me, without the spirit of success, there is not going to be any success. But we have that spirit here.” Five girls enjoy the break for lunch by soaking up some warm spring weather. Mrs. Goddard and the servers enjoyed the 1974 Jr.-Sr. 4 A group of lower school students really enjoys the after- noon recess. The basketball games have some tense and exciting moments These Junior Varsity Cheerleaders lead the crowd in backing the Junior Varsity Boys’ team. Mrs. Fasold helps Lynn Miles answer a tough question. Field Day encourages competition among the students. Doing a good job is something worth smiling about. Behind any good performance is a lot of practicing. Spirit, that’s a powerful word. There are many different kinds of spirit. In our school the most popular spirit is yelling as loudly as possible and seeing who can lose his voice first. That kind of spirit is great for the cheerleaders because that is their main purpose. But sometimes the players appreciate a little more of the kind of spirit that makes a person tell ’em they played a good game after a 100-0 loss, or the kind that makes a person sit very still and pray while they’re trying to concen- trate. Sometimes I think they even appre- ciate the emotional spirit where every- body cries and hugs each other after a big win.” 5 Students Enjoy Field Day Joey Abate smiles after he completes a great jump. Tom Hammond takes his turn in the Baseball throw. He ends up with a long throw. Randy Hammond skillfully bends into position, showing the making of an expert egg Great Dow! Look at Tom Hammond try to break the catcher, record. The annual Darlington Academy Field Day was held in March of last year. The events started after lunch with many of the students dressed in summer shorts. Students participated in such events as the sack race, egg toss, wheelbarrow race, softball throw, relay races, standing broad jump and run- ning broad jump. Ronnie Lee winds up for a winning throw. Timmy Moore leaps into the air for a record breaker. Spring dashes to the finish line. 7 Awards Day Honors Many Receiving citizenship awards were Frank Bonnoitt, Elizabeth Bristow, Andrea Scott, Jennifer Anderson, Julia Hoffmeyer, Margaret Scott, Mclver Williamson. Larry happily accepts an award. Last May we had our largest Awards Day. On the last day of school, students were awarded with many honors. Groups in the lower school receiving awards were those who had perfect attendance and out- standing citizenship. In the upper school, students re- ceived awards for participation in Drama and on the newspaper and Annual staffs. Sigma awards and ribbons for marshals recognized the outstanding students scholastically. The President’s Physical Fitness awards were also presented. 8 Ricky Anderson and Glenn Weatherford receive ribbon Sandra James receives the hest actress awards. award.

An important person in the success of the Junior-Senior is Mrs. Brown, the Junior Class Advisor. Jim Anderson helped cut bamboo for the decorating of the gym for the transformation of the gym into an Hawaiian setting. Next of Kin” supply some boogie. Jerry Kirven makes the announcements. The Class Of 74 For the first time, we at Darlington Academy were able to have our Junior-Senior Prom and the graduation ceremonies in our school gym! Mrs. Brown gets the Junior class together every fall for a magazine sale to raise money for the Junior-Senior. Thanks to the great response from parents and students, the Junior class was able to raise enough money to make Junior-Senior 74 a big success. The theme of the prom was Isle of Golden Dreams”. The atmosphere created was one of palm trees, a great view of the ocean, exotic food, and live music. All to- taled, it was a great evening for all. Graduation 74 was a very special occasion to many. Lynn Tyner was Valedictorian and won the Frierson Award. The graduates celebrated the end of high school with a dance. Front Row: Lynn Tyner, Tina Psillos, Louigene Blackman.

Administration Plans Year The school body owes much to Mrs. Lillian Goddard, Mr. Ed Fasold, and the academy’s Board of Trustees for the many hours spent solving arising problems and, in general, helping to make our school one which will offer the best quality of education. It is impossible to show them the appreciation felt for all of the hard work that they have done. Their guidance, support, and help made this another great year for this school. 16 Mr. Fasold accomplishes many activities in his office ( Board Meets On Policies t W.S. DeWitt, Secretary; C.E.

The Mothers’ Club includes all of the mothers of students at Darlington Academy. The Booster Club includes all of the fathers of our students. There are two money-making events that are held annually: the Bazaar, which is primarily set up by the Mothers’ Club is usually held at the end of November; and the Barbecue is put on primarily by the Booster Club in the late winter. The profit earned from these efforts is used for the building funds, school repairs, and fixing the athletic fields. The Booster Club raises much of its money from this wagon. They sell refreshments from inside at various places, like the County Fair and auctions. Parents’ Guild Has Brisk Year.

The first project of the Drama Club this year was the sponsorship of the Robin Hood Players, who presented the play Little Lord Fauntleroy. The group, from Arizona, performed before the entire student body who enjoyed the acting and the entertainment of the play. The Drama Club successfully presented a comedy, The Nutt Family. The play was centered around Crestdale which was a large summer home. Crestdale had been used by Dr. See as a sanitarium, but he had closed the place and put it up for sale. Finally, the house was let to the Nutt family who were unaware of its previous use. The laughter really began when Dr. See’s patients started re- turning to Crestdale and the people began thinking the Nutts really were nuts. The cast consisted of Donna Sansbury as Bea Wise, Emily Aimar as Sylvia Gaylord, Cindy Hill as Cerise, Christine Shake as Mrs. Metta Nutt, Sandra James as Ima Nutt, Spring Kirven as Lila, Melissa Severance as Vivian Topper, Angela Tyner as Charlotte Neal, Martha Willis as Helen Shelton, Joey Math- ews as Orestus, Jerry Kirven as Larry Smart, Joey Abate as Phineus Nutt, and Bobby Bryant as Wall Nutt.

To raise money to print the newspaper, the staff’s first project was selling cokes at the booth for Dar- lington Academy at the County Fair. During the Halloween Carnival, the staff sponsored a fish pond for the young guests at the event. The staff strove to make the school paper a truely representative spokesman for the entire student body. All major school events, original student crea- tions, and essays of student opinion filled the pages of this year s issues. Indeed the staff had a newspa- per with content they could be proud of.

At this year’s Halloween Carnival, the lower school Student Council had two booths. They had a bean bag throw and a bottle cap toss. This has been a good year for the Student Council and we hope that they will have just as much progress next year. Would you please hurry up? I want to see what could possibly be so interesting.

Larry and the cheerleaders lead the student body in singing the Alma Mater. Who's gonna win this game tonight? We’re gonna win this game tonight. Our cheerleaders have been a big asset to the school spirit this year. They gave encouraging support at every game and held many boosting pep rallies. They were sponsored by Miss Carol Hamer during soccer season and by Mrs. Judy Drose during basketball season. During the summer, five girls attended cheerleading camp in Spar- tanburg at Wofford College. They learned a lot of new cheers and chants to share with us. We appreciated their enthusiastic spirit and support shown through the year. J.Y. Cheer Squad Created J.V.

The graduating class of 1975 began their last school year at Darlington Academy by ordering caps and gowns and graduation announcements. The highlight of the fall was receiving their senior keys, but the excitement really began to mount as gradu- ation approached. Each senior participated in some kind of extracurricular activity including sports. Larry Pietarinen was President and Jerry Kirven was Treasurer of the Student Forum, while Kathy Broach was the class representative. Joey Abate was the Annual Staff editor, while Forrest Kibler was the photographer and Frankie Woodard was the in- dex editor. Kim Anderson was editor of the Roa- drunner Review. Classmates Jim Anderson, Betsy DeWitt, Doug Gehrke, Ronnie Lee, and Mike Sellers worked enthusiastically as members of the soccer or basketball teams. Many of the seniors participated in more than one activity.

Mr. Mr. Fasold enjoyed the Field Day events much as the students did. He is watching a jumper. This 1975 edition of the KINESIS year- book is dedicated to Mr. Ed Fasold, the As- sistant Headmaster of Darlington Academy, who for the past two years has given his time and experience for the growth of aca- demics and athletics in our school. Mr. Fasold is a native of Sunbury, Penn- sylvania. He did his undergraduate work at the University of Pennsylvania, and then came to Newberry College. He finished his college years doing graduate work at the University of Georgia. Since then, he has been teaching school for eighteen years. Be- fore coming to Darlington Academy, Mr. Fa- sold was Assistant Headmaster at Francis Marion Academy in Hemingway, South Carolina for five years. During his past two years at Darlington Academy, Mr. Fasold did much for our school. He had a close relationship with these students and has spent many hours in help- ing them with their problems and their needs. We were always welcomed in his of- fice, whether on business or just to visit with him. Mr. Fasold’s greatest achievement at this school was shaping up a basketball team and taking them on to be the Region V Class A champs of 1974. Our school is indeed proud of this achievement and the trophy which sits in our trophy case. Once again, Mr. Fasold took his team on to win the Conference in 1975. His team won both the regular season champion trophy and the tournament trophy for Region V in Class A. This year, the tournament was hos- ted by Darlington Academy and Mr. Fasold coordinated the event. Mr. Fasold will be missed by the students of Darlington Academy next year. They have grown to like and love him, and to be his friend. We hope he has many happy memories of us and our school. Mr. Fasold draws a name out for a new tape recorder to be given away.

The words and pictures in this book authenticate the events and memories that we have shared together during the course of this year. It has been a most en- joyable one to remember. The Kinesis staff hopes that each of you can find something of worthwhile in this book, that will bring a smile to your face or help relive an event that was ex- citing and fun. Many long hours were spent in pre- paring this yearbook especially for you. I would like to say a simple thank you to the teachers for their cooperation and un- Joey Abate can rest now that the yearbook is done. Mrs. Whittum is slightly startled while she was figuring up some captions. derstanding in getting this book out to you. To the staff, I Would like to express my gratitude to them for sticking in there and coming through for me. I am at a loss for words of thanks and appreciation to our advisor, Mrs. Whit- tum, who work as hard or harder on this book than us, to meet our deadline. Being very busy with the Drama Club, working on the annual, and various other jobs at home gave her many exhausting and tir- ing nights. Again, I express my most sin- cere and deepest thanks to her. With the conclusion of this year, I hope you enjoy this book, and wish each of you a prosperous and healthy future. Joey Abate Editor Members of the staff drive on in the last days of work to complete the annual. , 96 u HERFF JONES YEARBOOKS 'Sfiy .' - VC?4 VV T 'V. , VKJ - ' § Yvlv: 'S £ : «a - v - - •v - v ' C '- iiVi c v'V'cc r •'‘ VC?tYv- iv rt ‘ « v • • i. iv v % V • ■ v • ;-v' . . -vo ;•• • • •••'-. . • � v.
