They’ve been seen at F.C.S. and the s urrounding area at their most outrageous, most sincere; and’ most humorous: In the next few pages we've tried to capture their personalities, both individually andas a class unit. Above, we see these three classmates have gotten out of a study hall to work on tans before the Senior Trip. They figure the rays work just as well in February as they do during the summer, right? And what is this? Could it be these young innocents are in hot water? No, of course not. They’re just getting opinions on some favorite expressions. The senior’s gift of speech is a great asset. They love to talk so much, conversations can be heard when a single inhabitant is in a room. Fortunately, a telephone is being used in almost all cases. The seniors were always ready to lend a helping hand. But these boys had no idea what was in store when they volunteered for something ‘Wet and Wild.” One time-passing activity for ‘87 was gossip. Just pick up any extension and tune in to the latest. The grafitti found on desk tops was, if possible, worse than any year before. A nice shade of blue complements it so much better, don’t you think? We decided to protect the unspoiled ones of this land by locking up two of the spoilers. Earth may never be ready for the likes of our class. g p DB “Hey Occifers,.you.needs.to.redecorate!”’.Since.the.law.enforcerment budget-had.been.cut.so.badly,.these seniors did their best to spiffy up old Troop C. Cut-n-paste. We've been doing it since the first grade. When something's good, you don't abandon it. Some lockers are works of art. Role reversal is just one way of broadening horizons. Hopefully, our years here at F.C.S. have taught all of us to’observe open-mindedly. F ranklin just happens to be’one tiny corner of the world. Bigger and better things: Here we come! pe NS ports? 8 m9 «: eg inte ts ’ é en ig ae ee teks Us I looked at you today and saw patience.

Moving up, F.C.S. sees many improvements Recent changes at F.C.S. have made our educational system much better. While taking time for the stu- dents’ and community's interests, academics have not been forgotten. We are proud to have achieved the following: One of the largest honor rolls in the history of the school was accomplished. A new athletic field was constructed from property donated. The central office has been reorganized for better effi- ciency and budgetary procedures have been placed on the computer. New bulletin boards now advertise and promote school community activities and recognize all stu- dents attaining the honor roll. An enforced disciplinary code has improved the learn- ing environment while promoting academics. The Festival of the Arts Program has brought cultural activities to all grade levels. The school has arranged additional cultural activities for the students through the Orpheus Theatre in One- onta and also for the community through the Air Force Concert Band. Educational field trips have been sponsored to Mon- treal and New York. The school has saved the taxpayers over $70,000 by more efficient purchasing, careful shopping for insur- ance, curtailment of vandalism in the school, new procedures for renovating and repairing, following through on state aided projects and eliminating the need for many legal services, among others. As always, there was a strong thrust toward grades, good sportsmanship and individual growth. Frequent assemblies kept students aware of the goings-on, while praising their personal and team achievements.

Elementary school enrollment has been steadily climbing, ne- cessitating the addition of three classrooms. This was accomplished by changing the “movie room” into a primary classroom and dividing a large classroom. Division made some classrooms rather small but most teachers agree that the resultant smaller class size makes for more effective education. The elementary staff was increased to accommodate the new classes. We welcomed the following new tea chers: Miss Elyse Lensky, Pre-first grade; Mrs. Catherine Tucci, Grade 2; Mrs. Grace Coddington, Grade 4; Miss Judith Zurbrick, Grade 5. Curriculum changes during 1986-87 found fifth and sixth graders studying Spanish as a second language and all classes K-6 using a new Science curriculum developed by New York State guidelines. With the addition of more computers, all children K-6 have had experience in the use of computers. While change is exciting and a necessary part of our technological society, it is pleasing to note that the elementary division retained some of its finest traditions such as the Kindergarten Circus, the Halloween Parade, The Flight of the Gingerbread Boy, Sixth Grade Holiday Plays, First Grade Breakfast, Field Trips, Mother's and Fa- ther’s Day Celebrations, Field Day, etc. Nan Gardiner Be : tea all!

A necessary hub. Stu- dents from all grade levels can be seen in these three little rooms. And as they get older, the visits become more frequent. Mrs. MacDonald urges pupils to come use the Discover and SAT programs whenever possible. Below, we can see her encour- agement has drawn in Curt Phelps and Jeff Keator. After taking the placement tests, they may find that they would make good doctors, lawyers, or Indian chiefs. Besides career counseling, Mrs. Fairchilds and Mrs. MacDonald help with college. Stu- dents are told never to think that anything may be unreachable. ‘‘Sure,’’ Mrs. Fair- childs tells Trisha Giambra. ‘Virginia would love a girl with a high school record like yours.’ Often, students come here with unusual questions: ‘How do I get my Social Securi- ty card?’’; “Is the government class going to be easy?’’; “Is having more than one wife illegal in this state?’’ These and others are willingly answered. The role of Guidance Counselor is very unique. She is with the individual during intellectual, social, and emotional growth. Many critical choices are made with her input and advice. Without her services, too many students would have to make quess- es at important decisions. Mrs. MacDonald gives students the shoulder to lean on and an ear to bend which is needed in some very crucial times. The Humanities The humanities have traditionally been studied in the belief that they ennoble the spirit and refine the intellect. We at F.C.S. feel that language, literature, and history give our students a picture of human experience that is at once uni- versal and individual. Using language as the medium of in- vestigation, we expand understanding of past and foreign cultures in order to learn how they’ve helped shape our own. Study of the humanities asks students to consider values and attitudes of other people, as manifested in their litera- ture and history, in an effort to promote enlightenment and tolerance. In these pursuits, we develop the abilities to read critically, write clearly, and speak articulately-all of which lie at the heart of a good education. AN By CED TL - AENRPA 5S . : =. an : oe rs ne hips r eg Deborah Dibartolomeo -History Charles Barrows -History Patricia Burgin -Spanish Natural Science And Mathematics Stan Swears and Co. - Science Dwayne Jacobs - Science The principle aims of the Math Department are to cultivate habits of ordered and accurate thinking, to increase un- derstanding of mathematical principles and concepts, and to develop skills needed for the application of mathemat- ics in everyday life. In the laboratory sciences, we stress the need for students to work directly with the materials and methods of scientif- ic investigation. Both departments believe that it is our responsibility to develop positive attitudes and intellectual curiosity in these disciplines in an age when their impact on society is greater than at any other time in human history. Susan Daniels - Mathematics Visual And Performing Arts The Departments of Art and Music offer F.C.S. stu- dents many opportunities each year to perform and exhibit their creative work. Studio art classes strive to develop and refine perception, articula- tion, and critical ability by acquainting students with a variety of media. Music lessons, band, chorus, and music classes help each student ex- plore his own musical talent, be it vocal or instru- mental. Our drama class and the annual spring production gives students a foundation in dramat- ic literature, acting, and scene design. In all the arts programs at F.C.S., the emphasis is on cre- ative exploration, and though discipline is stressed in seeing projects to completion, always we understand that the real education lies in the process. Richard T.T. Rusnock - Art, Drama Carol Smith - Music Practical Arts The practical arts are enjoying a new and unique status in our country to- day. At the same time that we are res- urrecting the ‘lost’ arts of the home and woodshop, we are instructing re- cord numbers of people in modem sophisticated office procedurss. The truth is that we live in a society with a virtually unlimited need for people with marketable practical skills. At F.C.S. our classes in home econom- ics, business, and industrial arts re- spond to society’s need. Our goal is to teach students to be skilled and re- sourceful in these “hands-on” disci- plines so that they may succeed in the real business of living. Cte f NOY Lee Sperling - Industrial Arts, Art Mary Ann Pinney - Home Economics Health And Physical Education Developing in students an understand- ing of the need for lifetime physical exer- cise and good health habits is the focus of our physical education teachers and school nurse. Courses in phys. ed., an essential part of a well-rounded curricu- lum, teach skills that promote individual and team sports and seek to meet the needs of handicapped students as well as those without physical limitations. The school nurse provides information and assistance as needed to all students and keeps up-to-date records on all our school population. Abs. Barbara Vienna - School Nurse Elizabeth Ursitti - Physical Education Cameron Allison - Physical Education Eric Haight - Physical Education emedial And Special Services Remedial and special teachers at F.C.S. function in many capacities. In the library, we provide both print and non-print re- sources for students and faculty which aug- ment classroom materials. Our collection also offers a wide range of leisure reading for our students. Remedial teachers ser- vice the learning problems some students encounter in reading and math. It is our task to bring these students up to grade level and to suppport them for varying lengths of time. As specialists, we can offer help to the classroom teacher in our areas of expertise, and reinforce specific con- cepts. In short, insuring the academic and emotional well-being of each student is at the heart of our job.

We had many activi- ties on the school calendar, including the Hallow- een party and the Christmas party, which contin- ued to be big successes with the students and faculty. One of our main goals was to initiate activi- ties and services that would directly benefit the students. A trip to Montreal was planned for the Senior High, and a trip to New York was organized for the Junior High. We hope to see these trips become a tradition in the future. The Student Council has made many suggestions to our advisor, Dr. Bennett, that we felt would im- prove the school. Dr. Bennett supported several of them, such as the salad bar and the new lighted signboard in front of the school. These are im- provements that are appreciated by many. | would like to thank Dr. Bennett and the faculty for their encouragement.

A few magic words and a wave of the wand aren't ' enough. It takes planning and hard work. | The first thing that goes into a yearbook is serious collective | brainstorming. A theme has to be invented, the length of the yearbook determi ned, the cover designed, photography planned, pagination ordered, and the ad campaign planned. Finding ads is no bowl of cherries. Going door to door with a Sales pitch and a smile, you're really selling yourself and your school. Most businesses aren't very receptive when you’re the tenth high school trying to sell them an ad. And after the first day you become quite accustomed to rejection. However, once you have the money safely in the treasury, you can let your imagination fly. Next comes the seemingly endless part of yearbook—taking the photos. Being in the right place at the right time means you struggle to catch that special expression, pose, or event only to discover that the moment you hoped to capture is overexposed. When you have your pictures and your ideas, the rest should be easy, right? Wrong! Now comes the critical point: linking photos and phrases to form a harmonious balance. Writing copy is the hardest task to face. To express how we feel and where we are coming from is always difficult. If we only had all the time in the world it might be possible. But, alas, we have to meet deadlines! A yearbook is a mixture of pictures and words that fuse, creat- ing an everlasting memory. It reflects our feelings—a special type of magic. And hopefully, it gives others a chance to look at uS aS we really are. “a The infamous trio: Howard, Bongo, and Bird . . . but working? Where Music Ae pae Everything Elementary Chorus- ; Row 1: R.

The Devils won the championship game of the Worcester Christmas Tournament beat- ing the hosts 63-52. Matt Sickler won the Most Valuable Player Award and Jeff Keator was selected to the Allstar Team. John Campbell and Matt Sickler have also been selected to the Tri-Valley West Allstar’s 2nd Team. The positive attitude and hard work of the team made up for its lack of size and height.

We had a new coach, Mr. Prehmus, who changed our attitudes and our outlook. The first thing he taught us was confidence in ourselves and our abilities, something most of us had lost. We worked on having a coach and team that believed in each other. Winning games wasn’t always as impor- tant as playing our best. Even though our record was not great, we never gave up and sometimes even surprised ourselves. This year was just the beginning, but it was a beginning to be proud of. Te Being Seniors and Basketball Captains can make some of us lightheaded. Kow 1: Brenda Carey, Patty Uzenski, Sherry Cook, Amy Geertgens, Stephanie Reller.

The strenuous daily practices turn their insurmount- able energy into something vol- canic. A dull moment is never to be found. Whether relaxing be- tween home runs or discussing strategy, the boys make baseball a great high school sport. Nice work, fellas. Play ball! Coach Parrow gives his view of the ‘86 season The 1985-86 Franklin Baseball season was filled with many out- standing team and indi- vidual performances. The overall record was 7 wins and 5 losses but was not really indicative of the players’ “we won't quit’’ attitude. The team was 0-4 after 4 games but pulled themselves up and won the next 5 games. They finished the season by winning the next 2 out of 3 games and tied for second place in the league. The team batting aver- age was an impressive .581 and the best part of those numbers was that after 4 games the team average was a mere .250. Individual stats were im- pressive, but more im- portant it seemed that for every game we had a dif- ferent team member who would have been consid- ered MVP for that game. Chris Worden led the team with a .526, Darryl Beers with most extra base hits and RBI's, and Joe Terrano added a .410 and a great defense in center field. John Campbell and Matt Sickler made up a very good battery. John’s overall record was 4-1 with an era of under 2.00, and Matt’s: continued im- provement behind the plate was proven by his throwing out baserun- ners in 3 of the last 4 games. The team is looking for- ward to another success- ful year in 1986-87 with 8 returning lettermen. It has been a good year for Franklin Baseball. -Gary Parrow Team Members- Mike Ritz, Chris Worden, M.

FRANKLIN DOMINATES! | Taking it on the run, all the way to the top, F.C.S. has a record-breaking year. FCS Track-1986 With several individual league champions, league record setters, and sectional competitors, the Spring of ‘86 can be considered one of the most successful seasons in recent years. The girls’ team placed second to Davenport in the league championship. Janine Jackson won the 100 meter dash with Liz Coma taking second and Patty Uzenski taking fourth as Franklin showed that they were the dominant team in the sprints. Franklin proved its point even more in the 200m with Janine and Patty placing second and third respectively. Janine, Liz, Patty; and Pam Johnson won the 4 x 100m relay at the league championship for the second consecutive year and set a new league record at 54.1 seconds. In the field events, Karla Veen upset some of the area’s finest in the Discus by taking the league championship in her first year in that event. The boys’ team, though undermanned, did very well in the league championship meet coming in fifth overall. Doug Goodrich surprised everybody by blowing away the competition in the 1600m run and setting a new league record of 4:43.10. Matt Sickler set a new school record in the 5200m as he came in second in the league in his first year of track. Chaka Wilson was the most dominant athlete at the league meet by winning three events and setting league records in two of them; Chaka set league records in the 100m (11.4) and the 200m (23.56). With those titles in hand Chaka went out and won the triple jump. At the Section IV Track Championships, the FCS team members did very well. The girls 4 x 100 relay team just missed making it into the finals; however, they did set a new leaque record in the 53.8 seconds. Janine made it to the semi-finals in the 200m, while Doug came in eighth in the 1600m run. Karla became the first Franklin girl to win a ribbon in sectionals when she came in fourth with a school record toss of 99’6 . Once again the spotlight was on Chaka as he made it to the finals in the 200m and triple jump. In the semis of the 220 Chaka became the first Tri-Valley runner to break the 23 second barrier with a time of 22.9 seconds, but had to overcome a bad start to place third in the finals of the 200m. In triple jump, Chaka won first place with a leap of 43’6 3 4° and was assured a trip to the State Championships where he placed 15th and once again broke the league record with a jump of 44'5'. J.J. Laing, Coach Janine Jackson turns on the power to fin- ish first for another F.C.S. accolade. Chaka Wilson, F.C.S.’s outstanding runner, breaks the tape for a 200m league victory.

The school grounds received many changes for the better this year, with the biggest improvement being the construc- tion of a new athletic field. Bob and May Miller donated the 4.3 acres of land. The designing was done by Athletic Direc- tor Eric Haight and Boys’ Soccer Coach Stanley Swears. Construction on the field (above) was started in March ‘86 by Twin Rivers Construction of Afton and was completed in the fall of 86. Bob Miller and Stan Swears were in charge of the seeding process. The grass, which is the same kin d used by Penn State on their athletic fields, was ready to play on by late October (right). The new field includes a second soccer field, a new softball diamond, and a 400 meter track. Improvement was also shown by all of F.C.S.’s athletic teams this year. Girls’ Softball Coach Cameron Allison presents Trisha Giambra with the Most Improved Player Award (below left). But the improvements weren't limited to athletics; a new sign board was installed on the front lawn (below right). igs ee a 2 MEMS SER OSMRMENR RS eIKeaaneneE TT A true chameleon, Agent Monville sports two of her many disguises: an innocent baby and a trench-coated sophisticate. It was a dark and stormy night, and Detective “Vern’’ Monville paced back and forth at Roissy, the Paris International Airport. She was about to undertake the most important mission of her life. Her cover would be that of a humble exchange student. But in reali- ty, she was to be an ambassador of her country - where else - in Franklin, New York! To insure the success of her mission, she was first met by her contact in New York City, a member of the famed N.Y.P.D. Agent Monville continued to carry out her assignment : on the soccer team, with the ski club at Deer Run, and hiding among her senior class in Florida. Vern’s mission will end in July after a bus tour around the USA, the most important top secret trip. ) WANTED Erica with the daughter of her first host family. Colleen and friends visit a chocolate factory. Erica Nelson and Colleen Law, both members of the Class of ‘86 are this year’s R.O.T.A.R.Y. agents in Scandinavia. Erica’s assignment is the quaint town of Nesoddtangen, Norway, twenty minutes south of Oslo by ferry. While in Norway, she has explored Bergen, the fjord capital; visited a mansion of a distant relative; palated the health-con- scious Norwegian diet; and attended the “socially re- laxed’’ Nesodden Videregaende Skole. Despite an ingenu- ous exterior, Agent Nelson has become knowledgeable about Norwegian culture and provides us with frequent incisive briefings on her observations. Colleen, whose mission took her in to Linkoping, a city about 120 miles south of Stockholm, reports that she is now fluent in the Swedish language. Ever vivacious, Undercover Agent Law has led a life filled with discos, cafes, and extra-curricular activities. These pursuits have brought her close to the people of Sweden and have rendered her a most valuable liaison. Colleen and Erica report that they are in constant communication with each other and that their Christmas rendez-vous in Sweden, which received some local media attention, was fantastically successful. Nice work, girls from R.O.T.A.R.Y.! See if you can find Colleen in this class! (opposite) Romeo and Juliet. (bottom left) ‘The way we were.”’ (bottom right) Liz and Lisa on their Own again.

We found that maneuvering the 106-foot sloop was not an easy task! ALL ABOARD THE SLOOP CLEARWATER! The Clearwater group has a special dream: A Hudson River which flows uncontaminated from its source to the sea. the river carrying a message of concern for New York’s great natural resource, the Hudson. On June 10, forty students accompanied by Mrs. Burgin, Mrs. Campbell, and Mr. Barrows had a rare opportunity to sail down the Hudson in the nationally-known river sloop, Clearwater. During the afternoon, which proved to be one of the most beautiful of the spring, we worked in groups with the crew in net fishing, examining the catch, viewing microscopic river life, manning the tiller, and engaging in discussions about clean-up efforts on the Hudson. We were met at the Port of Albany by onboard educators, Travis Jeffrey and Brian Forist, and then were taken aboard where we met Clearwater’s captain, Morley Horder. Morley related a bit of the sloop’s history, including the fact that she is an exact replica of Hudson River cargo and passenger vessels of the 18th and 19th centuries. Folksinger Pete Seeger is credited with the inspiration to build Clearwater and often shares his talents with groups making the sail. For 17 years now, the sloop and her regular and volunteer crews have sailed up and down For all of us the Clearwater experience was much more than great fun; it provided us with an awareness of the Hudson’s problems, but even more, gave us an unusual glimpse of the river's beauty, diversity, and potential for responsible commerce and recreation. Let the faint-hearted step aside! Raising Clearwater’s 4,300 square foot mainsail 85 feet to the top of the main mast required the “people power” of our entire delegation. Those nearest the mast described the feat as “packbreaking - pure and simple.” Franziska Kostbade examines river water samples. We were able to identify a variety of plankton and see firsthand the effects of pollution. In the past decade the clean-up effort has been significant, but groups stress the project will be a long-term one. Onboard educator Brian Forist explains the concept of net fishing to Sharron Butler and friends. Mo- ments later, Sharron cast the net into the river to ob- tain a catch for examina- tion. Abandoning the rela- tively sedentary role of the teacher, Mrs. Campbell and Mrs. Burgin try a hand at some “real’’ work - steering the Clear- water. F.C. S. students examine _ the river’s life will be safe the day’s catch with a _ for consumption some- crew member. We hope day. 89 pe al’ pe gw nd I's “My eyes drifted down the applica- tion. The now familiar questions could be answered without hesita- tion or error. | had learned to bring all the necessities: names and ad- dresses of people who could sup- ply references, my working papers, and of course, a pen. With the com- pleted questionnaire in hand, I went to the counter to give it to a girl who had already succeeded in being hired. But unlike the other places where I had applied, she asked me to have a seat so someone could speak to me. The experience ended happily when I was hired that same evening.” That’s how one F.C.S. teenager got her first job. What a sense of pride She felt at that moment! But pride can soon turn to seriousness with the realization of responsibility. Time once wiled away with friends, watching television or sleeping, is now spent taking orders, waiting on customers - in short, being productive. “One of the best parts of my job is the social aspect,” admits sly Tim McHale. “You have no idea how many females I've iteral- ly picked up off the slopes!’” Tim and Matt, both avid ski- ers have turned fun into profit. They've been employed during the ‘86-87 season as _ instruc- tors at Deer Run in Stamford. The transition can be frustrating at times, losing that freedom. But the teens who need, or just plain want the money hang in there. What is this money used for though? We asked around. Fifty-five percent of our high school students hold out- side jobs, and nearly three quarters of them said a big chunk of their eamings goes into cars, clothing, and tapes. Some, however, actually finds its way to the bank, and what’s left over pays for ‘miscellaneous items.” We found that the qualities which insure good performance in school are also an asset when a teen looks for a job. That is not to say that one has to be a Straight-A student. But the qualities of dependability, per- serverance, logical thinking, and honesty are vital in the real world. With these traits, a teen has a great chance of becoming a success in work, in school, and in life. Matt Sickler says helping little kids learn to ski is ‘“‘neat.”’ Doug Goodrich, a senior and Assistant Manager at the Southside McDonald's, voices a complaint; Some- times it’s hard being Assis- tant Manager when you're only a high school student. It’s difficult to make older employees respect you.” Rob Miller, a junior, has worked at Rich’s Auto Body for the past two years. After school and on weekends, he’s getting valuable expe- rience. Says Rob, “My job doesn’t interfere with school. I wish I could work full time.’’ “My job gives me a head- ache!” exclaims Chris Ter- rano, a junior who works at Victory Video. “It takes way too much of my time. But then again, | do like the people | work with, and the money's great!”’ BOO! At F.C.S. Halloween is a tradition!

Forever. But since it was doing well and actually passing our classes than wor t this'was It. A Solid, comfortable part of our ‘ptember, we were more concerned with bout the future. The time Surely flew by though, that’s unarquable. Christmas and the New Year were soon here and gone. The time between then and the Senior Trip certainly didn’t seem like 110 days. Could it be that Graduation was only two months away? It seemed impossible. But there it was. All too soon we were saying goodbye to people we’d known for years. “Will you write to me from your Ivy League Heaven?” and “Only if you promise to look me up when you return from overseas!’’ we kidded each other. Our lives are moving so fast now. It’s hard to find even a few minutes to reminisce about school. That’s one reason yearbooks are so great. Those pictures where you thought you looked like a goon now help to bring back a waterfall of memories. The names and faces click and once again you're on that obscure field trip or singing during the Christmas Concert that kept being postponed. So, farewell friends and acquaintances. Our days here may be over, but they're far from forgotten. JOSTENS AG Sa dS Gale SS Seong on ae Te ee eo
