2' cf dm A ef Ter' A YEAR OF REFLECTION Oh yes, there will be plenty of reflecting When we think back to this past year of life. A year with some successes And some near misses. Some big surprises And some close calls. A year of sharing, caring,and some daring innovations. A year we dealt with a smoke-free campus And got through the anger, the panic, and the anxiety-together. A year when speech became forensics: Getting a diploma got tougher, And nMarching Onh went HHollywoodN. A year we got Hlmpactedn and distracted. Some over reacted and then retracted. A year we proved no ordinary school has a spirit week, a spirit for pizzas, and a spirit built on an equation. CR+R:sJ ' i A year filled with ups and downs, Hellos and good-byes. A year that taught so many to care For an art teacher you couldnot help but love. Oh yes, it was her spirit And zest for life , That finished this year's book. D.L.Mattingly 1987 C956 QF Q
