Classes differ on higher level The Foreign Language depart- nent moved upstairs for the first ime. Another change included tew French teacher Karl Nowling eaching first year French. Foreign .anguages proved to be more dif- icult as students moved on to ligher levels. Third year French is nore difficult because third and fourth year French are together. We work mainly on conversational skills, said Junior Vicki Horrell. Some selected students took a first-year foreign language in eighth grade at the Junior High. I feel lucky to be in 3rd year because not many sophomores can be, said Sophomore Jeanie Reagan. Latin classes were also more dif- ficult in the later years. Third and fourth year are about the same on- ly we do a different poet each year, said Senior Gary Farney. The Latin Club was also one of the most active clubs. They had meetings, gave parties, and went bowling. «r- AT l 4T « A M Model UN Row 1 — Michelle Petty, Tracy Brent, Denise Strapes, Dee Anna Potter.

Piute % zc The challenge of being drum major is what I find most interesting. Being a drum major takes a lot of hard work, dedication, and most important, a lot of patience. We go to camp in the summer and there they teach us how to perfect our jobs. Then we go back with the whole band and there we try to make them be the very best! Junior Lydia Cook The band works vigorously on popular music for the pops concert. The flag line has improved since mar- ching season, but we still have a long way to go, but with the determination the kids show, I know they can do well this winter guard season, commented instructor Janet Gilpatrick 50 Band Guard
