Eighth Qrade Plans Zo Education The class of 1990 is very different, not different like in “strange, but different in “not alike.” Mike Emery and Lori Harms chose green as their favorite color, but blue ranked number one overall. Pizza was voted in as the favorite food, while Dan Hopper's favorite food was shiska- bobs! Pepsi was the most often drunk pop. Keith Kowal and Todd Nielsen didn't have a special kind as long as it was JUST pop, while Brian Stuetelberg pre- ferred root beer. Mr. Tjaden was chosen as best teach- er. When asked who her favorite teach- er was, Julyn Farris replied, “Mr. Tja- den because he is funny and he helps us. He really tries to teach us.” Shelley Hackwell liked, “Mr. Rick Nielsen be- cause he is so funny and he listens when you ask him a question.” There was little agreement when it came to a favorite movie with this bunch. Out of 26 students, there were 14 different movies. These ranged from “Red Dawn to “Sixteen Candles. Some even enjoyed “Hard Bodies” the best! - right, Beth? Don Johnson from “Miami Vice just squeaked by as favorite actor - sixteen others were mentioned; for instance Jeremie and Bill liked to watch Billy Dee Williams. There was one thing all these students had in common. This was going to col- lege. Almost all of the eighth graders saw themselves still going to further their education in five years.

 We're loud and immature, but we also get along pretty well. This was Angie Hackwell’s response when asked what makes the seventh grade different from other grades at EHS. Travis Schwen- neker’s response was, “We talk a lot.” We’re very enthusiastic about different things,” was Angela Liddick’s answer. Who’s your favorite teacher? The major- ity of the seventh graders enjoyed Mr. Tjaden, because, in Mart Jorgensen's words, “He is down to earth.” Some of the other reasons Mr. Tjaden was liked were, He is fun to be around,” and “He makes it fun to learn,” according to Ste- ven Sonntag and Sara Vaughan.

Most said that pizza was their favorite simply because they liked it. Hamburgers came in as a not-so-close second place. The seventh graders had a wide variety of favorite musical groups. They ranged all the way from Alabama to Wham. Their best-liked singers were just as varied, all the way from Hank Williams Jr. to Madonna, but Bruce Springsteen was chosen more than anyone else. The favorite television show was The Cosby Show. It was liked for the most part, “Because it is funny” (Kevin Soren- son). “Miami Vice” was also liked for several reasons. Jenny Luft liked it because, “It is interesting and it has Don John- son.” Brian Schwab liked the show because, “It has a lot of action to it.” “Back to the Future” seemed to be the favorite movie of the seventh graders with “Rambo.” “Return of the Living Dead” and “Red Dawn” coming in second. All in all the seventh graders seemed to enjoy their first year of junior high. Terry's Karber Shop, Sidra
