riendships are both gained and lost during the three years at FHS. Coming in as sophonnores, we hung around with kids from our own junior high. But as the years pass, everyone gets to l(now each other and new circles of friends are made. So as seniors, the hardest part of graduating is losing touch with the people we have known for at least three years — the people who listened to our problems, the ones with whom we shared our greatest memories, and the ones who cried and laughed with us, stayed by our side through the good times and helped us through the bad. Our school provides an atmosphere which en- courages involvement.

Friendship ood friends are not hard to find here. Almost everyone is easy-going, friendly, and out to have a great time. Best friends can be easily spotted here — they dress alike during Spirit Week, take the same courses, and unfortunately like the same person! The best way to meet new people is to participate in an extracurricular activity. Many groups are happy to have new members which often leads to new friendships. And for those shy people, joining a group can get one closer to the opposite sex. 6 Opening

'chool spirit was ever present this year. Many students participated in Spirit Week, attended the bonfires, and were enthusiastic at the pep rallies. Students joined groups to cheer on teams in certain sports like hockey and swimming. The cheerleaders led the crowd at the football and basketball games to get the teams up for the games and to build their confidence. The pep band was present at most of the basketball games and played their hearts out to show their spirit. These are only some of the groups which are formed to show spirit. But by cheering, we can also get involved to show our own individual spirit. We seem to find fun in just about everything we do, especially when we're free to express ourselves.
