Hard work shown Proven to be most successful and rewarding Out of all the vocational classes offered Agriculture has proved to be one of the most successful and re- warding. Raising animals to be good enough to par- ticipate in a show is harder work than it seems, said Senior Jana Wilson. Students started their freshman year with basic plant and animal science. Once they had mastered all the details and leadership skills, Junior and Senior projects included Agricul- tural mechanics, welding and in depth technical training. Each student has the option of entering an animal for competition in local stock shows. This is both profitable and re- warding. Money is put forth for food and neces- sities for the animal. In re- turn the student has an op- portunity to receive such awards as Grand Cham- pion, Reserve Grand Champion, and various Honorable Mention awards. Under the direction of Mr. Chumbley and Mr. Vasbinder students learned many skills that will help them while seeking careers in fields such as veterinary medicine and mechanical engineering. Also available to students were Horticul- ture classes. Students par- ticipating in these classes held various plant sells throughout the year to raise needed funds.

Fingertip abilities Unimaginable things come to life before you Can you imagine having at the power of your fin- gertips the ability to make unimaginable and imprac- tical things come to life? Strokes of a brush could make yellow skies and pur- ple grass a reality. Creative talents could conjure up new and fantastic worlds. To the students in Ms. Eleanor Bomberger ' s art class this was a unique tal- ent they each possesed. Everything from clay fig- ures to stained glass mas- terpieces were created. Many of the students ' achievements were proudly displayed at Northside cen- tral office and in the newly structured rotunda of the main building. Every in- dividual expression, abun- dance of creativity and tal- ent could be viewed in each detail of their work. Senior Ana Hernandez ' s extraor- dinary talents gave her the opportunity to create the artwork for Northsides an- nual Christmas card. Students participated in many contests and were time and again recognized for their achievements. The experience was both tun and rewarding, it gave me the opportunity to put my creative talents on dis- play, said Senior Steve Barloco.
