Two of the policies primarily concerned ninth graders, while one affected all students. The Class of 1985 will be required to earn twenty credits instead of eighteen to graduate. Also, they will have man- datory, full-day attendance during their senior year. All students at Ferguson now are affected by the third policy, which states that students who have five unex- cused absences in any class receive a fail- ing grade in that class. The administrative staff had to deal with problems concerning overcrowding as a result of the addition of the ninth graders. Clogged hallways, ‘“‘floating”’ teachers and lunchroom lines were evi- dent throughout the year. All four principals worked to abolish the feelings of apprehension toward the newcomers. Overall, Mr. Walter said that the year went smoothly, and that ninth graders belong in F.H.S.

Administrator ol Math and Science Prepare Although math is not a required sub- ject, many Mariners chose this as an elec- tive course. Classes ranged from basic math to more complicated calculus. Math problems forced students to turn to various methods of reasoning. As they prepared for PSAT’s and SAT’s, math students turned to their teachers for addi- tional help. Students were able to com- bine their mathematic and science skills in chemical equations and physics. Labs, science projects, tests, and many hours of note taking made up the hours spent in the science classes at Ferguson.

Both depart- ments found that the addition of the freshman class resulted in having ‘floating’ teachers. The English teachers were challenged to encourage students to work to their potential, improve writing skills and SAT scores, and to provide ex- periences to enable students to pass the minimum competency test. The English department worked toward these challenges by adopting them as the goals for this year. To accomplish these goals there were SAT workshops every Wednesday after school and the teachers tried to raise the level of instruction in the classrooms. Mr. Hespenhide headed the Debate Club and Mrs. Ballard headed the Forensics, both sponsored by the English department. The Foreign Language Department sponsored the International Club which had monthly meetings. Each language sponsored a meeting, teaching the other students about that language, cultures, and people. The International Club was comprised of students taking French, German, Latin and Spanish plus students who wanted to learn of these languages.

Studying for the Criteria Reference Test (CRT) became a daily exercise that was listed on the department agenda. Many students prepared themselves for the test and other challenges. The objec- tives of the Social Studies Department, according to Mrs. Anthony, were “‘to help advanced students develop the skills which will enable them to meet the challenge of college curriculum.” She ex- plained that overall the purpose of Social Studies is to make Ferguson students civic-minded and enable them to develop critical thinking. Model United Nations was the major club within the Social Studies Depart- ment. The sponsor, Mrs. Anthony, and the president, Parry Garrett, worked closely together to make this club more organized. It soon became a structured organization that raised money for UNICEF and helped students who plann- ed to participate in the Model UN field trips. The two major field trips took place on February 4-6 at O.D.U. and February 11-14 at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. This club participated in several activities throughout the year. They attended lectures at Christopher Newport College on world issues. On January 29, a number of members heard Ambassador Spain, the U.S. Ambassador to Turkey, speak on the importance of the Eastern Mediterranean to the security of the U.S. Finally, they participated in World Affairs Seminars after school.

The students received technical skills and knowledge needed for entry in general clerical, secretarial, clerk typist, and ac- counting occupations, skills and knowledge enabling them to use ap- propriate business principles and pro- cedures in managing personal affairs, and skills necessary in evaluating employ- ment opportunities in terms of personal capabilities and interests. In attempting to accomplish these goals, the business department was involved in a pilot pro- gram this year — all business classes ex- cept the Senior Intensified Program and Office Services Program were offered on a one-hour basis. Some courses were add- ed and some revised, enabling more students to take advantage of a more varied business curciculum. Fashion Merchandising was offered to students interested in pursuing a fashion career. They learned about the workings of the fashion world, sales promotion, display techniques, design analysis, and fashion forecasting. Distributive Education allowed many Mariners to gain practical work ex- perience while they were still in school. While in the classroom, they learned many skills in marketing, human rela- tions, and communications intended to enable them to enter and succeed in distributive businesses. TAG, a new program this year, offered fifteen Mariners a chance to work in the field of their choice. At a weekly class, students participated in activities focus- ing on skills necessary for any job. The Ferguson TAG program was one of two such programs in the state. 38 Business DE, ICT, TAG A Leroy Greene finds it difficult to concentrate when classmates find jokes in the assignment.

The NJROTC Drill Teams performed with their usual outstanding sharpness at Drill Meets in Norfolk, the University of Virginia, Hampton Institute and at the Yorktown Weapons Station. Honor Guards were provided for the Homecom- ing Queen and her court. The National Color Guard served for all home football games and several basketball games. End of the year activities included the Military Ball and Awards Day where recognition was given to those cadets who were a bit above the average in their knowledge and dedication. Two cadets, David Minns and Bobby Perkins, were honor graduates of the Navy’s Leadership Mini Boot Camp held in Norfolk in the summer of 1981.

Home Economics was a course that in- volved cooking, planning and maintaining a home, and handling household prob- lems. Students devoted much of their time and ability to this course. Much of the work done in class was carried over to the individual’s home life. Students found the course fun and at the same time challenging. 40 ROTC, Shop, Home Economics Ferguson NJROTC cadets, on a field trip to NASA, get a close look at cockpit instruments in a fighter air- craft.

Health classes covered units such as Mental Illness, First Aid, and Consumer Education. Striving for greater participation in all P.E. classes, the P.E. teachers tried to ac- complish this through motivation and discipline. Throughout the year, every coach demonstrated various sports skills, directed daily exercises, and organized practice games. An active intramural schedule which involved the faculty as well as students was followed this year. The Drivers’ Education department concerned itself with developing confi- , owe dent and knowledgeable drivers and teaching safe driving skills.

The Art classes strove to attract more students through offering the Art Club which met after school. The club gave all students a chance to learn about crafts, sculpture, and _ graphic areas. The Art Exhibit in March gave art students an opportunity to display their skills. The Music Department developed the skills and talents of its students. The Band worked on marching and perform- ing skills. The Band, along with Drama, sold fruit before Christmas to raise money. Several band members sup- ported the Jazz Ensemble and Pops Or- chestra. There were also guitar and or- A Ferguson Singers Jera Killam, Teresa Walls, Cheryl Curbow, Iris Smith and Alan Maquire prepare for tl Christmas concert. chestra classes. The chorus classes con- sisted of Ferguson Singers, Acappella, and Girls’ Chorus. Mrs. Johnson, chorus director, attempted to have a Boys Chorus and a Music Theory class but could not find enough interested students. The drama classes, along with the Drama Club, sponsored two plays and a musical. The Drama Club par- ticipated in the Medley of the Arts and worked at the Peninsula Community Theater on “‘Annie Get Your Gun.”’ The Fine Arts Department enriched the lives of Ferguson students in various ways.

Unlike last year, students were assigned to their counselor by last name and not by grade. Mrs. Oder was a new addition to the guidance office; she maintained records, handled transcripts and ranking of students. Another new ad- dition was a machine in the career room. It handled printouts for occupational in- formation, colleges, graduate schools, military and financial aid. Other duties of the counselors included handling parent conferences, preparing a newsletter on a regular basis and handling the mock inter- views in April. The library had three new librarians, Mrs. Holland, Mrs. Bowie, and Mrs. Mc- Queen. They assisted students, organized books and helped keep the library quiet. Several students chose to take Library Science, a course that involved organizing magazines, checking students’ I.D.’s, and reshelving books. The library opened before school and remained open after school; thus, students found a quiet place to relax and study. Nurse Josephine Eley conducted the biannual height and weight checks, along with nursing Mariners back to health.

The theme of their hall was “Riding High,” which won them first place in the Hall Decorating Contest. They participated in the Miss Mariner Pageant, sponsored Senior Leadership Day, and planned the Senior Banquet. The prom was held at the Hellenic Center featuring the band Sandcastle. Seniors looked forward to their Graduation Day at Todd Stadium. To raise money, the Senior Class sold candy canes for seventy-five cents each, sponsored a car wash, and paid Senior dues.

It’s down the main hall to the end. Take a right and it’s the first door on the left.” That’s what was heard on orientation day in September, when Sophomores first ar- rived at Ferguson. In an assembly, these newcomers were introduced to principals, SCA, and basketball and football coaches. They were encouraged to cooperate, par- ticipate and support. They showed their interest and spirit by decorating their hall during Spirit Week and putting on a skit for the Homecoming Assembly.

From the way the season started, it looked like the girls’ Field Hockey team would have a promising year. But rules dealing with ties were changed this year, which hurt the team’s record. There were many close games and, because no ties were allowed, two of the Lady Mariners’ games were lost in overtime. According to Miss Preston, the head coach, the greatest handicap came toward the end of the season. Some players didn’t think “‘teamwise,”’ which made it harder on other team members. AA Lafayette player drives the ball as Ferguson’s defense prepares Miss Preston summed up the year by say- ing, “It is a fairly young team and they played better than the record lets on.”’ The J.V. team had better luck though. According to coach Beth Brannan, hard work and good conditioning were their greatest assets. Since the J.V. team was allowed to have ties, their record of 6-2-2 was a little better. Coach Brannan said she was pleased with the efforts of the players and expects they will make a great varsity. SCOREBOARD VARSITY J.V. PHOm rey. EHSSCH By.

The Mariners again participated in the Fort Eustis Christmas Tournament and won top honors in their division. Darrell Terry earned the title of Most Valuable Player for the tournament. Perhaps the most exciting but disap- pointing game was the second Warwick regular season game. Time after time, the Mariners tied up the game and led several times.

The team went beyond what most people thought they were capable of. With a record of 9-0 by mid-season, the girls had an unbeatable reputation. Coach Carol Frenck, with the assistance of Linda Baumler, Marilyn Watkins and Susan Richardson, worked to make the girls a “‘cohesive unit.’”’ Whether the girls were out on the court or on the bench cheering the team on, their spirits were always high, especially during the Ft. Eustis Tournament, which was held dur- ing the Christmas break. The girls sound- ly defeated Bethel and Menchville, but were defeated by Phoebus in the finals by a score of 41 to 24. Carol McIntosh, a senior this year, proved to be the team’s most valuable player, averaging 12 points per game. The promising newcomers this season were Mandy Martin and Charlotte Webb, both ninth graders.

Coach McDougal of the baseball team had high hopes for his team. ““They are more experienced, so they should do bet- ter,’ he said. He hoped to go to State, but said they will conquer one thing at a time. Tennis Coach Brian Adkins, a newcomer to the Ferguson coaching staff, hoped to be a strong challenger for the District Title. The team finished 5th last year and has sufficient tennis ability among the new members to make it to one of the top three places. Coach Hott expected his Golf team to be a strong challenger for District also. He hoped to see great potential from Barry Head, Reed Taffer and Kent Piland.

The Keyettes met every Wednesday morning at 8:30, with President Eileen Levy, to discuss various ways of helping our school and our community. Volunteer ser- vice for the Special Olympics was their International Project. A car wash was sponsored to support the Ronald McDonald House in Nor- folk. At Thanksgiving, Keyettes supplied canned goods to three needy families. At Christimas the Keyettes rang bells for the Salva- tion Army at shopping centers. Along with their Community spon- sor, the Woman’s Club, Keyettes helped sponsor Santa’s House, where children saw Santa Claus and were able to purchase gifts for their parents. They sponsored their annual Sadie Hawkins dance in March, and provided funds for a refrigerator for the teacher’s lounge, and met the needs of the elderly throughout the year by visiting community nursing homes, such as the Newport News Con- valescent Home. Under the leadership of Presi- dent Ralph Novoa, the Key Club participated in many _ activities throughout the year. They sup- ported the Muscular Dystrophy Association by assisting in a Dance- athon. The Key Club attended social lunches. The Key Club also sponsored a fall dance under the community sponsorship of the Kiwanis Club members. _A Front Row (Left to Right), Stephanie Brown, Nancy Sanders, Jill Chandler, Kiki Georges, Kim Walz, Annette Borst, Amy Meyer, Margaret Ann Abbitt, Eileen Levy, Holly Read.

The Art Club met every first and third Thursday under the supervision of Mrs. Shird, the art teacher. The pur- pose of the club was to give extra work- ing time to those enrolled in art classes and provide those not enrolled in any art class with the chance to practice their art work. To broaden the interest of its members, the club held various workshops in calligraphy, glass and tex- tile painting, and stone cutting and polishing for jewelry. They held their annual art exhibit and _ presented displays during Fine Arts Week, where talented Mariners were able to show off their work. Future scientists of America arose from the Science Club. Students in science classes such as Chemistry, Biology, Zoology, and Senior Science were encouraged to participate in the Science Club. Members promoted the annual Science Fair as a means of put- ting scientific knowledge into practical presentation. This year’s top winner was Laura Kopelson who later took her project to Virginia Junior Academy of Science. This statewide science fair was attend- ed by many members and even those who did not attend still helped those who entered their projects. After hav- ing won the E.C.L. Miller Award at last year’s VJAS, the club members strove to win it again this year. Besides the various Science Fairs, the Science Club actively sold coupon books with the help of Sheryl Curbow, the president of the club.

Social Studies, Model Clubs Sharpen Students’ Political Skills Model U.N. was made up of the Interna- tional Relations Class and a number of outstanding Juniors who worked with Mrs. Anthony after school every day. In addition to preparing for the Model U.N. at O.D.U. and the 19th North American Invitational Model United Nations at Georgetown, the students attended various lectures at C.N.C., one of which was given by a representative from the State Department. The students competed at O.D.U. where there were 45 public and private high schools in Virginia present. Howard Roesen, Charles Crutchfield from Warwick H.S., and Paul Weaver were chosen Most Outstanding Delegation to the Security Council. Charles Crutchfield was chosen the best delegate in this council. John Stein and Patricia Hamilton received an honorable mention for Best All Around Delegation. When the students competed in Georgetown, they fared equally well. Four delegations from FHS joined 2000 other high schools from the U.S. and abroad. Again, Howard Roesen and Charles Crutchfield were named Most Outstanding Delegation to the Security Council. Two other students served as justices on the International Court of Justice and six more took part in intervention simulations. Ferguson organized its first Debate Club this year. Members spent many hours diligently researching at the library, in order to compete in upcoming debates. The club also sold Homecoming flowers to pay for debate expenses. Spelling bees, poetry, prose, and ex- pressive speech were all a part of Forensics. Under the guidance of Mrs. Ballard and President Jera Killam, students expressed their feelings through their interpretation of the selection chosen. Members of Forensics were involved in school competition. The student who received first prize competed in the district region. The winning student then advanced to regional and finally state com- petition. The students who represented Ferguson were Ricky Hatcher in Boys’ Pro- se; Kathy Torian in Girls’ Prose; Joe Klap- perich in Boys’ Poetry; Mary Anne Gillam in Girls’ Poetry; Howard Roesen in Boys’ Ex- temporaneous Speaking; Caryn Ross in Girls’ Extemporaneous Speaking; Bob Mason in Boys’ Oratorical Speaking; Holly Christiansen in Girls’ Oratorical Speaking. The Social Studies Club, opened to anyone interested in the social science field, began the year with an organizational meeting in October. Under the direction of President Darryl Vines and school sponsor Miss Pierce, the club planned possible trips to Richmond, Williamsburg, and Norfolk. The club’s activities consisted of listening to and visiting various places of historical in- terest such as Mariner’s Museum. They hosted various speakers including Doctor Buck Miller from the Social Science Depart- ment at CNC.

Staff Produces “The Best of Times’”’ The yearbook staff was very busy this year producing one of Ferguson’s finest yearbooks. From the first day of school, the staff was busy planning and organizing this year’s Mariner. Working from their theme “The Best of Times” the staff added a new student life sec- tion and more color pages to make this year’s annual one of the best. Selling ads to various businesses, laying out spreads, and writing copy for clubs, activities, and events were all jobs performed by each staff member. Deadlines were met with hard work, patience, and understanding. Yearbook sales held during October were extended through November so everyone would have the opportunity to pur- chase a yearbook.
