Fermi High School - Traces Yearbook (Enfield, CT)

Recollections: The Closing Chapter With the new life of nature in the early months of 1986 came a renewed vigor in the community at Enrico Fermi. Sports’ focal points moved back outdoors as the in- creasing heat and humidity dared participants and spectators alike to forsake school loyalties. Consistent with the long tradition of Falcon spirit, few succumbed. Tenacity reaped rewards as absorbing com- petition indulged team members and their fans. Spring also triggered new pro- jects for year-round activities, as H.E.R.O. climaxed its calendar with the opening of Cafe Rendezvous, while the yearbook staff re- juvenated itself with the production of the 1986 Traces supplement. Fermi’s influence in the surrounding community was expanded by members of the National Honor Society, who organized, promoted, and helped fuel the Red Cross blood drive held at Fermi in May. But by far the most obvious display of Spring fever was the class spirit among seniors, which pushed class pride to a four-year high. Suddenly, activities signifying the end of high school seemed to abound. Variety show rehearsals to attend, prom gowns to buy, gradua- tion requirements to attain — such concerns dominated the typical senior’s mind. And with these diver- sions, the bittersweet realization that Fermi would soon become our past managed to be suppressed — at least until the 24th of June. Meanwhile, the days and the poten- tial for new memories were rapidly running low.
