As activities encourage class and school unity, involvement cyjirms the belief that t's people that matter continued from page 3 as registration, Homecoming, and TWIRP, the Class of '89 was able to slip comfortably into routine. The year took on another meaning for the juniors. With the privileged title of upperclassman came many new responsibilities. Attention had to be focused more than ever on heavy class schedules and prepara- tion for college. Junior year is the hardest year. Everyone has difficult classes and it's hard to get organized in school activities, said Lisa Graff. Although their busy schedules caused them to fall from a previous year first place in Sports-A-Rama to last, the Class of '88 managed to unite to create a memorable Junior Prom. For the Class of '87, three long years had finally placed them on top. After a frustrating year of disunity, the seniors pulled together to sweep first place in both the Homecoming hall decorations and rally. People were really enthused and we were really organized. Because we were seniors, we had a 'we need to win' attitude, and we did, said Renee Bronaugh. As college application deadlines quickly passed, many seniors were struck with the deadly senioritis but managed to survive until the anx- iously awaited days of Senior Ball and graduation. . For the different classes, the year took ona variety of meanings. Stu- dents were quick to learn that de- pending on how they looked at it, expectations, anxiety, or excitement could be found in any situation--It was all a matter of opinion.

For many, student life meant trying to maintain a balance between the social and academic activities competing for their atten- tion. A high school social life meant Friday nights cheer- ing the football or basket- ball teams to hopeful vic- tories, followed by the ever present question of what to do after the games. Students had the chance Q9 to get involved in school activities and support their class by participating in the spirit weeks and rallies for Homecoming and TWIRP. Spending time with friends, whether on dates or just in groups, many students tried to escape the pressures of school work. I love Friday nights because I can forget all a- bout homework and go out with my friends, said Su- lynn Chee. But try as they might to forget about it, homework was an inevitable part of student life. Academics came to life THATCOUNTS through a variety of clubs on campus. Being in French Club gives me an opportunity to learn more about the lan- guage while experiencing a little of the culture, said Paul Dunlap. Although homework may not have been a popular subject among students, most felt that academics were important because they helped lay founda- tions for the future. Although classes seem to be a burden now, I know that what I learn will pay off in college, said Jen- nifer Davis.
