I STUDENT LIFE Sharing Forms Bond Songs and poems have emphasized that A friend’s a friend forever.” Friends shared secrets, clowned around, cheered each other on, and had a few squabbles along the way. In the halls, the sophomore girls laughed and giggled over the cute guys and the new gossip, while the seniors talked about college plans and graduation. Friends also passed the time before and after school with humor and just some good old talk. To the teachers’ dismay, they also did the same in class. Friends also gave each other support from the stands, the field, and the court; and friends were there to cry together when a defeat meant the last football or basketball game of the year — the last game ever for the seniors. Of course, friends fought and squabbled along the way, but it just strengthened the bond between them with a test of just how strong that bond was. In the end, though, a friend was somebody always there, always ready, and always treasured. While Jamie Adams, first grader, thinks of all of the things he wants for Christmas, eighth grade tutor Jason Mote wants to help him write a letter to Santa. ,L The cat and the goblin prepare for the Hallo- ween play the seventh period speech class presented for the elementary school.

STUDENT LIFE Siblings Create a Variety-Pak Siblings not only had to get along at home but also at school. They had the same as well as different interests. The halls of HHS were filled with several sets of siblings who par- ticipated in the same activities, com- peted together, worked together, and supported and coached one another along. Siblings shared the same last name but had a desire for individuality and wished that others would not compare them all the time. Seniors and twins, Gary and Jerry Hartman competed on the basketball court together which was also a com- mon interest of freshman Peggy Hart- man, their sister. Two sets of sisters could be found running up and down the basketball court. Jeana Stockett, junior, and Janale Stockett, freshman, worked to frustrate their opponent. In a situation such as this, one might think jealousy might occur when one does better than the other. “When Singing along with classmates, Laura Tirey and Monte Foster kneel before Monte's big sister Tricia Foster and Rowdy Bryan at the senior pep rally. Janale does good, I’m happy for her, but it makes me want to do better,” Jeana said. Another sister combo, senior Chan- dy Harvey and freshman J. J. Harvey, shot together in basketball and cheered together as cheerleaders. In homemaking activities, sisters “I enjoy having Justin around because if I need anything he is always there for me,’’ Kris Newport said about senior big brother, Justin Newport. Lisa Yerby, senior, and Julie Yerby, junior, enjoyed taking home manage- ment class together fifth period where they were the only students in the class. Senior, Chris Cogburn, and sophomore, Clay Cogburn, put on shoulder pads and tackled opponents on the football field. With a common interest of reading, Lisa Wilhelm, senior, and Theresa Wilhelm, sophomore, turned in four book reports in reading class each semester. If help was needed, freshman Laura Tirey could ask for help with homework from junior brother Jim Tirey. “It makes us closer because she is taking a lot of the same classes that 1 have already had,” Jim said. Freshman, Monte Foster, and senior sister, Tricia Foster, worked together with livestock in FFA. Tricia was one of Monte’s biggest athletic fans and helped with English I homework. Junior brother and sister Jesse Sosa and Betty Sosa worked hard in math and were always ready to help one another with problems. They could also help their younger sister, freshman Sussana Sosa. Even though siblings had their dif- ferences, they always had the desire to help one another in hard times. “I’ll miss sharing my problems and gripes with her when she goes to college,” Monte Foster said about senior sister Tricia. Brothers Chris and Clay Cogburn pause for a drink before joining forces to attack the Groom Tigers. 12 SIBLINGS Sponsored by BETTY’S BEAUTY BOX
