GRADUATION 1982 Mr. Clark addresses the graduates. Graduation is a time of mixed emo¬ tions. The joy of no more school, the sadness of friends separating, and the fear of surviving in the real world. The graduating class of 1982 had these feelings and many more as they took their place in line with the more than 1,000 seniors to receive their diplomas. The senior class was the largest in the history of Prince William County and possibly the state of Virginia. The class had five valedictorians who spoke to the class during the ceremony. The Ralph L. Barnett Stadium was totally packed with parents, friends and relatives of the graduating seniors as the ceremony proceeded. Threatening skies and a chance of rain held off during the exercise to allow for a memorable experience for all involv¬ ed. Congratulations class of ’82 — You made it! Family and friends fill the crowded stadium. Brian Banks receives his diploma in a moment expressing the true meaning of graduation 6 Graduation 1982
