A Baron Academics being an important part at DeKalb is shown here as Traci Schlosser concentrates while taking a quiz in Mrs. Smith’s Spanish II class. The Baron Brigade band members await further instructions from one of the three drum majors dur- ing an after-school practice session. tC For Barons, the school year of ’85-86 was packed full of many experiences, some old and some new. Two of the newer programs were the Ski Club and the $.A.D.D. chapter. The new Ski Club members made seven trips to Swiss Valley, usually on Wednesdays. This exposed DHS stu- dents to cold temperatures while giving the opportuni- ty to “warm up” to new experiences. The S.A.D.D. chapter, Students Against Driving Drunk, sponsored by Mrs. Tita Gordon, started off on the right foot by having representatives chosen from each class. Also $.A.D.D. membership cards were avail- able to anyone interested. $.A.D.D. helped not only to control alcohol and drug related accidents involving teenagers, but it also offered recreation by sponsoring dances and taking trips. While most of us were basking in the summer sun, band members practiced to perfect their routines for competition. Practices helped because they placed tenth in the state. Also over the summer, the sign in front of the school was blown away by a wind storm. Eventually a new sign was purchased and installed where the old one had been. The commons also had several new additions. The north entrance had a new computer-controlled elec- tronic sign, and new vending machines for pens, pen- cils, notebooks, and snack foods were placed inside the commons. In this, the 1986 edition of the SABER, we hope that you will be reminded of what, in the future, might be thought of as “the good old days.” We also hope that this ‘pack’age of 86 will help those who weren't here with us to get a taste of what life was like in the Baron 86 Pack.
