We Hope We Made A Difference What a difference four years make! We tiptoed into a huge, foreboding building in the fall of '81 - and charged out in June of '85. Upperclassmen were very tall, sophisticated, and intimidating then. Four years later, we are the upperclassmen, the building has shrunk to a normal-sized school, and those new freshmen do look small and inse- cure. Maybe we made a difference - we hope so. Certainly our class spon- sors, Mrs. Jackson and Mr. Orth helped us. They taught us to finish jobs we started, to believe in ourselves, and to build class spirit by working together. We became part of the tradition e blue and gray run a little brighter through our veins, and our lives have been immeasurably enriched by teachers, friends, organizations, and activities. What do we remember? The tornado of '82: total blackout, crashing trees, and NO finals; Spotlight on the Hill - an evening of the performing arts; our speech team e bearer of trophies; and our first- class band; sports, enlarged and strengthened with the addition of soccer and more sports for girls. Coaches have come and gone, but our greatest loss was Coach Jim Barnett, who died after a long, brave battle with cancer. Coach Barnett inspired generations of basketball hopefuls with his quiet, powerful techniques. We remember ET, The Return of the Jedi, and Porky's. And who could forget Michael Jackson, Purple Rain, and Prince and the Revolutions? Madonna and Cyndi Lauper joined Twister Sister and Boy George on the 80's music scene. How long will we remember? Will they make a difference? The Reflections Staff salutes the Class of '85 e all the memories, the good times and the not so good. Whether or not we made a difference, We've got pep, We've got drive - We're the Class Of eighty-five!
