Finishing Touches We're Special, We're Awesome! When the first bell rang on September 3, 1985, a tradi- tion began. The class of '86 became the first Glenn Sen- iors since 1962. They have been the top class and the leadership for the last three years, and now is the finale, the last moment of high school glory. Senior Vickie Fritzler was asked how gradus ation made her feel. l'm not ready to graduate and leave the security of high school. My biggest fear is that I'll lose the closeness with my friends. l guess college represents the unknown,and l'm not ready for the insecurity. Senior Angie Samaras took a slightly different View of her gradu ation Graduation will be sad and happy at the same time lm sad to leave my friends but the happiness comes from knowing the achieve- ment of making it through twelve years of school. Glenn seniors, by being the first of a never ending tradi- tion, are different than sen- iors in any other school. Says Senior Billy Flippin,' We knew each other before we came to Glenn. Because of the problems we've had to face, we've grown closer in two years than most people grow in four.', When senior Mark Stovall was asked who influenced his school career most, he grinned and replied, i'My friends and my parents The competition with my friends kept me working and my folks made surel kept work in Senior year is perhaps the most special year in a stu- dent's high school life. 'fMy senior year stands out be- cause I know high schoolls al- most over. This year is a fun, easy year that l can have fun and get in a little trouble, says senior David Reid. This year begins and ends a first - the first senior class since 1962. They are unique and branded with the title GHS - first senior class. Says senior Harry Davis, We have begun traditions such as homecoming, spirit, and academic standards. As the class of '86, we get the rare opportunity to set the standard of what we want Glenn to become Not only are we special we re awe some Senior Spirit! In his own original Bobcat style.

This Is It - You're Gonna Love lt! From the moment the very first hint of orange appeared, spirit hit and spread like wild- fire through the student body. It appeared in the form of anything from screaming fans to mass car decorating. Pep Club sponsor, Mr. Anth- ony, helped start and escalate the spirit now infecting Glenn. 'il want to bring back the fun I had when I was in high school, and school spirit is fun. The good, clean fun we have in the stands cheer- ing makes the difference and it really does not matter if we win or notf, Veteran Bobcats such as senior Cammie Dav- enport felt that the spirit is just as alive as last year. I feel that seniors are more ac- tive this year. The Pep Club is bigger and the caravans and mascot have really added to the spirit. Also swept up in the glory of the orange, freshman Hol- ly Robinson jumped right in to be a part of it. I couldnlt wait to get to high school, so now that I am here, I want to support my school. Another freshman, Darren Eubanks, was asked if high school was different from junior high. There are more sports and night ballgames that seem to add to the spirit. High school spirit is much stronger than junior high. This enthusiasm that has earned a winning reputation within the community and is engulfing the faculty and stu- dent body at Glenn has been recognized - it is Orange Crush Bobcat spirit. This is it - you're gonna love it!
