Independence Junior felt many changes take place this year. We lost many ninth graders due to the new Cox High and acquired extra seventh graders because of the elimination of seventh grade in the elementary schools. Boundary changes also transferred students here from Plaza Jr. and sent students to Great Neck Jr. The school board elected to apply the 30-day absence rule to seventh graders and provided guidelines for curriculum changes to accommodate new high school graduation requirements in math and science. The metamorphosis progressed gradually and students adjusted easily to make Independence the best school ever! 1 .71 V v lv . x ,. ' X i . 5 475, ' A A ' Vi 1 x , sv- A T .

Utterly beautiful, com- pletely serene or deathly violent, the ocean and the beach are servants to none. In the summer, it becomes a playmate, a friend to hundreds of thousands who flock to worship the sun, to commune with nature, just to be here. Virginia Beach has a sum- mertime dissimilar to all others. A glorious time of year, between school years, when no person has an excuse not to find enjoyment. Sailing in boats or on wind surfers, swim- ming, surfing, sunbathing, boating, fishing, beachcombing, bikinis, beauties, brown bodies, bounding waves, all these and more compose the beach scene. No matter who or what, there will be something to pass the time in the World's Largest Resort City. Z?elzinc! file What do you think of when you think of school? Most people think of lockers, books, teachers, and work. But some people think of more than that. They think of clubs, sports, and practice, practice, prac- tice. And lots of practice they did. The football team, field hockey team, cheerleaders, and marching band met together several times a week to practice before school started on August 29. All that hard work really pays off! Words from our more promising hockey players, You want us to do what? Billy Bartolotta, David Mitolo, David Ray, Mark Hundley, and David Vendt take a break from marching practice. l P Spectating is a sport too!

Hey, where can I find Room 405? Which way do I go? How do I get to the gym? These questions, along with students with maps of the school, schedules, and books in hand were among the confusion and excitement on the first day of school. Many students were new, since they had been transferred from other schools, and in some cases, other cities. When interviewed, many of our students said that they were nervous, scared, excited, and even lost. But few will forget that day, when there were new faces, new places, and new goals to set for the coming year. The daily inhabitants of IJHS aboard their yellow shuttle.

Traffic in the halls is a JAM! Do I have to? After a short but ex- citing summer, many students were reluctant to return to class. S 56.5- ' On August 30, 1983, IJHS held their first assembly. The SCA introduced the diverse extra-curricular activities avail- able in a highly entertaining fashion. Levels of enthusiasm were raised because of this skit and IJHS enjoyed an active year. - 32 A couple of spirited IJHS guys lJeff LoPretto and Bruce Kellyl think they're cheerleaders!

There was a prize of a 510.00 gift certificate from Mother's Records given to the student who displayed their spirit in the best way. The spirit was evident in the halls in great abundance, and even spilled over into the dance that evening, This dance had the largest attendance that Independence has seen in several years, Punk Rockers seemed to be the costume of the evening with lots of great dancers, dark corners, and of course, terrific music.

Dr. E. E. Brickell, Superintendent, had a Curriculum Development and Assessment Team study Virginia Beach City Schools. The results were made known in the spring of '83, after two years of meetings involving parents, students and educators at every level. ln the fall of '83, Dr. Brickell was very busy with the changes coming about within the system. He feels Virginia Beach City Schools are Good as the Best and Better Than the Rest. It would seem that he, too, is Reaching Beyond the Horizon! The chief purveyor and promoter of excellence at IJHS is our own fine principal, Mr. G. B. Shields. This year has seen him totally involved in all walks of school life and certainly has brought spice and variety to our daily life at IJHS. Mr. Shields graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with an A.B. and a lVI.Ed. in Education. He com- pleted his C.A.S. in Administration from Old Dominion Univer- sity. On a clear day, you might find him reading a good book. By his own admission he has a keen interest in global politics. 'A' -a psi-' .fl 6 1.1. - I One facet of Mr. Shield's role is his involvement with students. Superintendent of Virginia Beach City Public Schools, Dr. E. E. Brickell. l Contemplating another 'word for the day' Mr. Shields? l i Mr. C. Peterson, in his second year at IJHS, has taught for twenty- three years. Before he became an AP, he taught foreign languages. He graduated from the University of Tennessee with a Bachelor of Arts degree and holds a Masters in Education degree from the University of Virginia. OFFICE STAFF l ' agli 'NJ ,Q firm 90 . ' Ms. G. Fox, Ms. K. Jones, and Ms. B. Mizelle. .1 Discipline, attendance, and buses are but a few of the many duties Mr. V. Marshall has as AP here at IJHS. He has taught for 27 years, the last four at IJHS. With degrees from the University of VA and Old Dominion University, he is qualified and dedicated to making IJHS the best school in VA Beach! These ladies are the gears of the school. lf the people who'll question, ljust ask all else fails, these are have the answer to any themll. Mrs. G. Fox, head secretary, a little bit of describes her job as everything. A crafty person at heart, she spends her time away from the typewriter doing cross stitch, candle wicking or sewing. Occasionally, she can be found on the tennis 3- gq court. She feels that lJHS is warm and 554 friendly, a great place to work. Mrs. K. 5 Jones, attendance clerk and secretary, claims Winchester, VA as her home. She has been here at IJHS for four years in a variety of capacities, librarian helper, bookkeeper and secretary. Prior to IJHS, Pembroke Elementary claimed her services. New to our halls this year is Mrs. B. Mizelle as school bookkeeper, supply store clerk and major source of cough drops. Her outside in- terests include cross stitch, aerobic dancing and her family life. GUIDANCE COUNSELORS New to IJHS this year, Mrs. L. Delootche has been in the education field as both teacher and counselor. She is a local and both of her degrees are from Old Dominion University, Her time away from school is fill- ed with animals and family. One very busy and very energetic lady, Mn. J. Collier fills her days with students, the Peer Counselors, crafts, music, reading and animals. She is Director of Guidance and holds degrees from Longwood College and Old Domi- nion Unlversity. Before she became a guidance counselor, Ms, Collier taught Social Studies, She thinks working with tl1e students and faculty of IJHS has been very rewarding. Aim high so it will remain a xl school. ll. H. Ill has been a orever lat least since the school open- edl. Prior to becoming a guidance counselor, she was a PE teacher'and girls basketball coach with several champion- ship teams to her credit. Her energies now are directed to helping students of IJHS look toward their futures. Her face is familiar to all the eighth graders because of her input to the Computer Literacy lab on future jobs in the computer field. When asked what her special interests were, Mn. J. Tata replied People! l like to be helpful to others and en- joy being with all ages. This certainly is an asset to her job as guidance counselor here at IJHS. Holding a Bachelor ol Science degree from James Madison Universi- ty and a M.S, from Va. Tech, Mrs. Tata claims Stanardsville, Va. as home ibut the question is, do they claim her?l. As the wife of a 20 year Army man, Mn. G. Paradiso has lived in 27 different homes in who knows how many countries. With that many moves, she cer- tainly learned quickly how to be organized. Orgbnization is a must in her job as Guidance SecretaryfReceptionist. When not running the Guidance office, she reacls, draws lvery welll, gardens, rides her bike and plays bridge. Mo. B. Crldlln is the Student Activities Coordinator. She has been in the education field for 11 years, She taught PE here at lJHS before she became SAC, Her outside interests are still very sports oriented, skiing, bike touring, etc. She graduated from Longwood College and University of Va.

He was a student at ODU and was originally from Chesapeake. Unfortunately many English 8 students this year missed out on almost a whole grading period of excellent learning experience under the guidance of Mn. P. Caeklll. We're sure glad she was able to be with us the rest of the year. Retumlng for her 4th year at IJHS is Mn. K. Lauetter. Her B.S. degree ln Educatlon from Loyola College and MsEd. in Counseling from ODU are more than enough to qualify her for teaching 7th grade Reading. Everything Mrs. V.

Dur- ing her eleven teaching years, Mrs. Lant has managed to fit in extra college classes at O.D.U. to complete a Master's in Guidance and Counseling. Don't ever mention horsing aroimd to Hn. E. McBride or she lust might put you to work bmshlng or clean- lng one of her horses. When Mrs. McBride ls not teaching English 9 or Public Speaking l, she ls probably coaching Forensics. This is her 7th year out in the schools. We have an author in our midst. Mn. F. Spuler recently had a book published for teachers. She is the newspaper sponsor ln addition to teaching 7th grade Reading. When asked to descrlbe lJHS she simply said this place is heavenly. An enthusiastic folk dancer, Ma. M.

She has a degree in Elementary Education from Longwood College, yet has taught math tn junlor highs for three years. She teaches Pre- Algebra and Math 7A. Does the face look familiar, but the name not ring a bell? That's because Ms. K. Cooper became Mrs. K. Ebmeler last summer. The name is all that's changed. Mrs. Ebmeler still teaches Math 7A and Pre-Algebra. Her alma mater are Va. Tech and O.D.U. where she recelved a B.S. tn Secondary Education. Ma. T.

Jollnltone will bring to 'f'ETE his second decade in the teaching profession. A typical weekday finds Mr. Johnstone teaching Sth Grade Physical Science, maintaining order on the buses, checking hall passes lst bell, and making the long haul every morning to pick up and safely deliver at- tendance cards to the office.

REWARD Two tuba players were discovered lost on October 12, 1983, in the vicinity of IJHS. They were wearing jeans and t- shirts, and both answer to the name of David. lf found, please return to 1370 Dunstan Lane. To be a member of the choral department of the Independence Eagles is to say you are a talented and very busy person. The Madrigals, a select group of singers, travel throughout the com- munity singing for our feeder elementary schools, community functions, local shopp- i n g m a l l s a t Christmastime, and at- tend competitions. The 1982-83 Madrigals won Best Performance at the Lynchburg Classic last year, chosen from schools from the state of Virginia. This year's group proved to be as talented and as determined to win this year. The Concert Choir is the largest group of select voices and they too perform quite a bit. The Mixed Chorus and Seventh Grade Chorus are begin- ning singers but no less talented. They perform with the rest of the choruses three times a year, Christmas, March which is our Broadway Concert, and late spring which is the Pop Concert. Along with festivals and competi- tions the choruses of Independence stay busy all year. lt's hard work but lots of fun. Come join us next year. -! ,lf wr J - - MADRIGALS - First Row: S. Holley, P.

The 1983 edition of the Eagles Football team, with a record of 5 wins, 1 loss and 2 ties, was the best in recent years at IJHS. The Eagles had an excellent offense, led by quarterback Sang Han and running backs Brian Taylor, Ernie Parker and Pete Lang. The offensive line was anchored by such stalwarts as Mike Boyce, Jeff Lopretto and Jason Barefoot. The full house T offense was very productive with an average of 225 yards and 15 points per game, plus a total of 1800 yards for the season. Coach Ludwig's defense was one of, if not, the best in the city. The defense was captained by Mike .L I TD!! Catch by JBSOY1 Boyce a T linebacker. Other outstanding players ' I Barefoot. were Jason Barefoot, Pete Lang and Jeff Lopretto. Defensive backs Bruce Kelley, Pierre May, and Doug Carr also contributed their skills to a fine defense. The defense limited opponents to just 102 yards and 6 points per game, for a total of less than 900 yards total offense for the seasons. Coach Dorland said of this year's team, a lot of fun to coach. Excellent field leadership, and an intense desire to win displayed by such players as Taylor, Boyce, Barefoot, Sang Han, Parker, Lang, and Lopretto made the coaching staff look good, and this season one of our best. You will be hearing or reading about these athletes again and again as they continue on to high school in the Beach district. Good luck to all of them. Jai.- First Row: J, Renager, T. Horvatic, E.

Their record for the year was 3-8. Our players could have given up at any time but instead they hustled and played with 110070 desire and were never really out of any contest. As Mr. Ludwig, coach of this year's team, states, l'm glad l had an op- portunity to coach a team of this nature. It gave me the chance to watch athletes with limited skills grow into basketball players that could play and win when all of the variables came together. The team captains were Jason Barefoot and Sang Han. These two athletes were also the Most Valuable Players. The team's statistical leaders were Jason Barefoot with 205 points total and 18 points per game average. Jason also had 126 rebounds, 11.5 per game. Sang Han had 38 steals and 24 assists while Doug Sirmons had 27 steals and 38 assists. We were fortunate enough this season to have had several 7th and 8th grade players. These players will be returning next year: 7th graders Randy Norton and Mike Bonomo and 8th graders Burt Mat- teson and Vince Phillips. Hopefully this will give us the nucleus of a good team.
