SPRING 1987 End in sight cont. become principal of Warren Tech. Mr. Sparks has worked in the jefferson County school system for the past twen- ty-two years. With such a major change in administration, there are bound to be some changes in the school. Sparks stat- ed that . . . . . . he'd like to make the school even stronger by setting solid goals aned sticking to them. Sparks seems to treat kids with respect and a desire to help them. Mr. Sparks seems to e excited about becoming principal of GM. He described GM as, .. a darn good place to be! Although Dr. Anderson will be missed, both students and faculty will welcome a change. Another change is the Yearbook sponsor. During the 86-87 school year, the yearbook staff had two sponsors. Mr. Bartkus, after fourteen years as sponsor, had gave up his place to sopho- more language arts teacher, Mrs. Hur- elle. The 87-88 school year wwill be the first full year that Mrs. Hurelle will be sponsor. The yearbook staff isn't the only peo- ple who have lost a sponsor. After two years of sponsoring the newspaper, Mr. Brovsky is leaving GMHS. Mr. Brovsky will be missed as a teacher and as the Newspaper Sponsor.The 87-88 school year is full of changes. When designing and working on this yearbook, the year- book staff tried to keep in mind the changes GM is going through. 2 Spring Opening Shawna Rattenni gives Cyndi Wilkins a new hair-do during career day.

,-at 1 I We Larry Lrppard stretches to retrieve a hisbee. SPRING 1987 With the end in sight Spring is a time of change at GMHS. Spirits change from the exciting basket- ball and wrestling of winter to the fast paced track and baseball of spring. The snow and cold weather of the past months is replaced with sunshine and warm weather. Spring fever and seniori- tus hit hard at GMHS in the spring of '87. As soon as the warm weather hit, students clad in knee length shorts and tank tops could be found everywhere. Students gathered on the grassy school lawns to play hacky-sack, frisbee, work their yo-yo's, or just soak up the sun. The abrupt change from winter to spring, this year, mirrors the internal changes that GMHS is facing. Spring activities of 1987 included all of the usual spring sports, National Honor Society, Knowledge Bowl, powerweight lifting and, of course, Prom and graduation. Seniors were anx- ious to finish this stage of their lives and begin to live in the real world. While the graduated seniors were getting a fresh start, so are the students - still attending Green Mountain. The students still at- tending GMHS faced a year of drastic changes in the 87-88 school year, with a new principal and changes in staff. One of the most obvious and irnpor- tant changes is our new principal, Mr. Sparks. Dr. Anderson shocked the stu- dent body and faculty in March by an- nouncing her plans to leave GMHS to Kevin Lehman, drummer for the Revolution performs at the Chinese Auction Spring Opening I
