Elizabeth East grins as she watches Mrs. Owen feed Spanish students “Spanish food.” Patti Jones assists Jeff Bowman with his books. Jeff was one of our many athletes injured this year. Nancy Workman refuses to acknowledge that error she just made. Bill Burnette, Marshal Ware, Dennis Turpin, Dave Blankenship, and Keith Brockitt relax in the sun during lunch. Donna Lindsey catches up on unfinished homework. The Amphitheater is loved by many lunchtime people. 5

School starts once again at J.F.H.S. The clan has a meeting before school A moment of solitude is great after a hectic day at school. Russell McDowell is skeptical about the techniques of this lady. Steve Arthur wonders if the teacher knows what he is up to? Jefferson Forest is no different from any other school. Just be¬ cause we are small does not mean we are eliminated from the greatness of other schools in our district have accomplished. But the key to that greatness is participation and that is what Jefferson Forest does not have. It is sad to see such a beautiful school go to waste simply because the students and yes worst of all, some of the faculty do not feel Jefferson is worth their time or effort. The school has been here five years now and has gotten over its newness, es¬ pecially the way some students are determined to tear it down. If you do not feel that Jefferson is a great school do not blame any¬ body but yourself. The school can only be as good as the people who make it up. Unfortunately my friend that includes YOU! 7
