Joe Powers, junior, gets his drivers license out before he leaves his house to go out. Having identification is very important when planning on driving around with friends on a boring Friday night.

Now that you mention it, we are a small school. However, that doesn’t mean we can’t accomplish big ideas. This year, we worked to- gether to build a mountain of spirit, knowledge, and strength while having fun. Our Spell Bowl team won the competition against local schools of the same size. Then the team went on to state competition where they received third place. On February 11th at 10:00 p.m. about 300 students filed into the school’s silver-trimmed doors to spend the night. The reason for the lock-in was to show students there are other ways to have fun besides drinking and getting into trouble. However, the main attraction seemed to be ADDAX, the band that is made up of about five of our very own seniors. For the first time ever, Griffith had a winter spirit week which was sponsored by the Booster club. It was created to give the basketball team a boost and to break those mid-winter blahs. Al- though the team didn’t have a terrific winning season, the fans were still there to faithfully cheer on their team. Along with hanging around together at school friends hang around together on the weekends just basically having fun and enjoying life. The cheerleaders and the lifters are show ing their stuff by performing one of their many lifts at this year ' s basketball home- coming pep rally. The lifters are a new addition to boosting the crowd ' s spirits. 4 — Opening

Student’s lives are undergoing changes everyday. They’re becoming more involved in all kinds of areas. A student’s time is limited. They’re becoming involved with sports, band, play practices, jobs, academ- ics, and social events. At times it may seem as if one is in a whirlwind. “There have been times when I’ve come to school at 7:15 a.m. and not left until 10 p.m. that night, so that doesn’t leave much room for a social life.” said junior Lyzette Leal. The reason is be- cause the student is dedicated to their posi- tion. However, one always seems to find a way to work around their busy schedule. When one gets that busy the question seems to be, “Can We Talk”? Can We Talk?
