We ' re Almost There Academically speaking, the junior year was the hardest. The difficult classes were taken and as a result, homework piled up. Your junior year is where you really get into academics, but it is also the year that college ac- tually becomes a reality, said Deborah Perlstein. Danny Roche felt that the junior year was the most im- portant because it was the last year that colleges would get to see your grades. Not only was the junior year strong in academics, but it was alao the year when people got more involved. Whether they were selling soap or par- ticipating in the parade, juniors were involved in something. Even my weekends are taken up with school ac- tivities, said Amy Bush. Hard work- ing and determined, the juniors were bent on succeeding. No, this isn ' t a crazy punker on a bike; it ' s Deborah Perlstein during Homecoming portray- a character from the film E.T.

Showing Promise With leadership roles in most clubs and organizations on cam- pus, the underclass practically ran the school. Outstanding underclassmen, mostly juniors, could be found leading Key Club, CSF, Aurora, USL and the Intra Club Council. Stated Andy Heil, Being vice- president of Key Club is a big responsibility, but I feel it ' s worth it. Mark Orttung, Andy Wood, Deborah Perlstein and I all have busy schedules, but we manage to find time for Key Club. Orttung, Perlstein and Wood, the other officers of Key Club, were all juniors. Also run by underclassmen was Finertz, with three sophomore officers. But regardless of their grade, the underclassmen were always ready to fill North ' s leadership roles. Easing the boredom in line during registration, Juniors Alicia Chase and Mardi Shannon compare their summers. 5 underclass 111
