PROUD MOMENTS Debbie Shassberger, Tonia Yarbrough and Terry Tatro speak for the Class of I9S5. LAST PERFORMANi EI Seniors join their soon-to-be alumni band for some final serious notes. SUNNY SKIES SHINE ON CLASS OF 1985 BACCALAUREATE . . When feelings of graduation first hit the heart, it was on June 2. Seniors worshipped together in full formal cap and gown. Baccalaureate started at 4 p.m. with a prayer led by Reverend Denny Buwalda. Senior Angela Young recited the call to worship followed by special music from Don Besi and Roger Emerson. Litany of the Lord ' s prayer was read by Michelle Nemshak. Tammy Poma and Amy Wilcox sang and Thomas Heller played Largo Mozart ' s Concert in B flat on the clarinet. Mack Solomon recited an inspirational reading and John Gambil read the scripture. Mr. Ron Allen directed the choir and played the organ during the hymns. Baccalaureate was a very invigorating way of spiritually entering the adult world. COMMENCEMENT The very last moment was here! It was time for the Class of 1985 to put on its ' caps and gowns and receive the all important diploma. Commencement was held at Troost Athletic Field June 6, at 7 p.m. It began with a surprisingly interesting speech by Holt Superintendent Dr. Henry Sinkiewicz in which he graded the class giving it a cumulative GPA of a whopping 2.5 Student speakers were Debbie Shassberger, Tonia Yarbrough and Terry Tatro. Shassberger began with a recap of the past , including memories of everything from elementary King on the Mountain to the middle school commons to high school lunch options. Yarbrough continued with an eloquent, yet humorous, speech concocted without the dictionary. Tatro concluded with an intellectual comparison of the Class of 85 and a school of fish. The class remained unique even in the receiving of the diplomas. Jeff Jordan ' s high five handshake with Dr. Robert Foy combined with an airplane banner congratulating Jannalynn Whitesides completed the scene of the Senior Class final event. Graduation 203
