Our students are willing to assume the responsibilities of adulthood by maintaining their school work, jobs, and services. Iam really proud of them said Ms. Betty Seitz, advisor. DCT was not only a class that got students a job, but it also taught students more about themselves and the world around them. It took special students to be DCT members, and they all proved themselves worthy. 3 l44fDCT af itil! ,, MW'

Flag Corps was placed under the jurisdiction of the band. Hours of practicing was involved to make the Flag Corps' perfection shine. Their job consisted of hard work, coordination, and perfection. To achievejust that, they had to give up hours of summer and after school free time to practice, which paid off as they waved their flags in front of the judges. Superior ratings were achieved at District Contest. With these ratings, State contest was next. After State came Solo and Ensemble, and Concert at which they felt they accomplished the same high ratings. This was the first year that Mr. Richard Parker, band direc- tor, and Rodney Simmons, drum major, had conducted flag corps, majorettes, and band under the same jurisdiction. With Flag Corps : the help of Sandy Stinson, captain, and Carol Valaques, co- captain, they made it through the year successfully. .r '.. f f fl r 1.
