Parents Take Active Part DeKalb has come a long way in ten years. Its facilities have expanded to provide a well rounded education for all Barons. But we could never have made it without our parents. Always on hand 24 hours a day, they have supported us through thick and thin — their attention and love is as evi- dent now as ever. Every sporting event the parents are represented, especially during basketball games where the Baron Boosters form a large crowd of cheer- ing fans. They yell louder than any- body else at community pep sessions determined to make the Barons num- ber 1. To show our gratitude we hosted them at several functions. Parent’s night was held to show them exactly what we were achieving academically so they can feel a closer association with the school. In football, the father of each player was honored at the last game of the season. And when the basketball team played Bellmont the parents of the players and cheer- leaders were brought before bleachers of cheering Barons. But whether publicly honored or not every Baron parent deserves and 4 has our deepest thanks. a ag ff Baron Booster members, Mr. and Mrs. Blevins, were the fastest to down their pudding in the “Great Race” at a community pep session.
