Twyla Partin, choir Being a choir has opened many doors for Twyla Partin. She was a four year member of the choir in which she held the positions of All- State and All-Region choir member. In her freshman year she was one of the only freshman to be chosen for All-Region, and in her sophomore year she was a member of the Choral Girls Sextet. Throughout her high school career she was a member of the Chorale, Orange Velvet and starred in The Sound of Music as Maria. I think that Mr. Leslie influenced my school years the most. He helped open those doors that I never knew were there. I loved choir because I've always loved to sing. Partln has also received Academic Excellence for four years, was a member of Mu Alpha Theta and National Honor Society. She served as NHS chaplain in her senior year. Sheryl Bashara, Roundup Editor 'ReaIIy, I've always wanted to be a Trailblazer. I believe that it is the ultimate goal of recognition for a job well done, were the comments of Sheryl Bashara. Success is what you make it, and it can make or break you according to your attitude. I had a lot of trouble deciding which route to take when I was a freshman, and for a while I think I might have tried too hard, because I wasn't happy and I wasn't getting the things I wanted, but then I learned to be happy with what I could give myself and not to care what outsiders say or think. Bashara became involved early by participating in band, Math Club and Longhorn Council her freshman year. She was inducted into Mu Alpha Theta in her sophomore year, and served as historian her junior year and president in her senior year. I think the organization I was most proud of was National Honor Society. It meant a lot to be honored for excelling academically, because good grades don't always come easily. I found my niche early by hiding out in the journalism room. I recognized my talent for writing and used it to help get ahead. Yearbook always seemed far away, but it fascinated me. I thought editor was an elite position, but I tried for it anyway. Once I was on the inside I realized how much more really complex and difficult work was involved, but it was fun, and I'm really glad I did it. Trailblazer made it all worth while, material gain isn't everything. You have to be happy in whatever you do, or else you'lI never feel satisfied. Iazers 279

Laneigh Anderson, all-district volleyball I was really surprised, but very proud, Laneigh Anderson explained after being named as a trailblazer. I felt I had received a very big honor. Anderson was a four year member of the volleyball team. She competed throughout her senior year to win a position on the all-district team. Being active made me feel involved. I felt like I was doing something forthe school, she emphasized. After an audition before a committe composed of faculty members, Anderson was chosen to deliver the invocation at graduation. I know that a lot of people did not believe that I was going to pray for our senior class, but I think that it really helped me to relate to others about the kind of person I really am. Anderson received a four year athletic scholarship to Louisiana Technical University. There her plans were to major in physical education. If 5 Chris Genoa, Most Versatile All the honors I got made me feel so good especially getting honors that the class themselves voted for, replied Chris Genoa. Genoa was named as Most Versatile in her senior year. She was historian of the senior class for three years and also a member of the track team for three years. As well as serving as a member of the Longhorn Council, Chaparral stafi and sports editor of the Roundup, she was chosen as sophomore Valentine's princess. Genoa received Academic Excellence and was named to American Patriots. She proved her versatility by being a basketball cheerleader and a member of the Hispanic Honor Society and Ouill and Scroll. Genoa was a United States Academy Achievement Award winner in her senior year. lf I had to do it all over again, I would. It was well worth it, summed up Genoa. 278 Trailblazers
