Dedication SG If 1 I Mrs. Hatfield hard at work. Quiet down, kiddies. lsn't she beautiful? Mother is getting madl If indeed as Shakespeare wrote in As You Like It : All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players, then when it comes to giving top billing to those playing the role of teacher, Mrs. Jean Hatfield is indeed deserving. By a vote of the yearboole- staff Cincluding an honorary endorsement from Llrickb, we are proud to dedicate this l986 Doss High Myth to Mrs. Hatfield. Mrs. Hatfield attended Sheperdsville High School, and then went to the University of Kentucky and Campbellsville college. She received her M.A. in English and secondary education at Murray State University. Mrs. Hatfield has been teaching for eighteen years all at Doss, and is chairperson of the English department. Outside school, she enjoys fishing and reading Shakespeare. Not only is Mrs. Hatfield an excellent teacher, but she also involves herself with student activities. She is a Senior class sponsor and helped greatly with the organization and financing of the first JuniorfSenior prom. She also sets up an ACTXSAT workshop for those who are taking the tests. People throughout the school have pleasant comments about Mrs. Hatfield. Principal Stan Whitaker said, Jean is a superior teacher and leader in the classroom as well as among her peers. She serves her school and community in a manner that sets an exampl for all. Her vast knowledge and abilities make her a genuine asset to her profession. Cindy Perkins Fryrear, a l98l Doss graduat commented, ln college I received very good grades in English. l believe that it was due to Mrs. Hatfield. l had her my Junior yea and she helped me tremendously with grammar and literature. She was also a good friend and listener. A Senior in Mrs. Hatfield' Research English class this year, Scott Sturgeon will always remember her: Mrs. Hatfield may be strict in the classroom, but sh is also a very good friend. She is the only teacher l've ever had that greeted me at the beginning of the year with a hug. Whether it be dedication to doing the best in the classroom, leadership of the English department. supporting and sponsorin student activities, grading ten thousand research papers. or exhibitng genuine concern for her students. Jean Hatfield exemplifie the best,qualities of the teaching profession. The accomplishment of these things is worthy of recognition. That Mrs. Hatfield ha accomplished so much, year in and year out through her eighteen years of service to Doss High students makes us very proud t dedicate this l986 Myth to her. 6-Dedication

There seemed to be a different feeling at Doss High School this year, an excited feeling. Everyone couldn't wait to get the year start- ed, but at the same time couldn't wait until it ended. Let's take, One Last Look at Yesterday. The student body and staff grew this yeart and although there was some confusion, we got to meet new and interesting people, learn- ing their ideas and feelings. We learned to cope with the crowded hallways and classes, changing schedules, and the normal frustra- tions of starting school. With all this growth, learning. and coping. we made many new friends, strength- ened old friendshipst and grew closer together. The friendships and closeness are important to help us get through our high school years. The memories of the fun times, and even the not-so-fun times, will always be an important part of our lives. ln some ways our memories even help shape the way we think and act throughout our entire lives. These four years of our lives can somewhat be compared to a chapter in a novel, the final chapter before adulthood. So many of us don't take time to realize how important and meaningful these' years are until they're gone. Along with high school comes a lot of responsibility. Teachers put more pressure on you to do more work and to do it right. Parents also give you more responsibility and let you make decisions on your own. They give you more freedom and you're allowed to go more places and participate in more activities. On the other hand. your parents expect more work and commitments out of you, which can not always be fulfilled to their approval. Accompanying these responsi- bilities are the hardships that we all encounter. Remember the first fight you had with that special person and you thought it was the end, but actually after a day or two 8 Opening
