Our May ar-nved too soon. Although our entire school career had been spent work- ing toward that May, when it arrived, we weren ' t ready. We weren ' t ready to say good-bye to routines and patterns established over the years. We weren ' t ready to leave the halls we ' d walked through - with others and very alone. We didn ' t want to say good- bye to our friends - new ones we ' d met within the month or year, or old ones we ' d built sand castles with while we were only watching others go to schools we weren ' t yet in. After an emotion filled message by John Creecy, he and Mark Buckner presented a Haltom High flag to the school in hopes that Seniors ' 72 would never be forgotten. In the Recognition Day Assembly on May 25, their last together, seniors marched resplendent in caps and gowns into the auditorium to receive hono rs for their achievements. 6 r

Qeniors had no time to daydream May. in With many final club meetings and parties, May was a full month for everyone, but seniors were espe- cially busy sandwiching everything in between writing graduation an- nouncements and Senior Program rehearsals. Talent abounding, Haltom ' s pride - THE UPSTARTS consisting of Judy Kothmann, Debbie Smith, and Jo- dy Kothmann - looking beautiful, did a beautiful medley of songs during the surprise-packed Senior Program on May 11, which includ- ed skits and stunts, songs and dan- ces - something for the entire fam- ily. Jumping back to the bubble gum , bobby socks days of the 1950 ' s, David Wesley and Jody Kothmann jumped, clapped and twisted their bodies through an example of the acrobatic dancing so popular during the time. The Seniors tried originality and creativity and the audience liked it. Student Life 25

Juniors and sophomores must have felt a little left out during May which was definitely a senior month, but they all knew their day would come, and they hated to see us go. I can ' t say my heart didn ' t ache a little when I thought of leaving them. The outstanding among us moved on stage all jittery and scared; they didn ' t seem so stuck-up or goody-goody anymore. Everyone kept telling us graduation was only the beginning of life, but standing there gazing over my classmates for the last time while we sang Memories, I felt certain my life was ending. Many scholarships were awarded that night including a $1250 one to Janet Smith as valedictorian. Emotions ran high as seniors gath- ered for the last time at graduation on June 1, 1972.
