Sanematsu Honored With HOBY When I heard that 1 was being considered for the HOBY, I was shocked, stated Shirley Sanematsu. The next thing I knew I had won! Hugh O ' Brien, a western movie actor, founded the award in 1958 to help pro- mote leadership in younger genera- tions. Sophomores competed by writ- ing three essays-all 75 words or less, on leadership, community involvement and how they shared experiences. My involvement as a class officer and Key Club made it easier to answer the ques- tions, said Sanematsu. Winners from all of California gathered and partici- pated in a seminar on leadership held each spring. Getting in some last minute studying, Shir- ley Sanematsu prepares for her biology fi- nal. ' I always end up cramming, comment- ed Sanematsu Shelli Mitchell Kristina Mohns Keith Monfils Monica Montoya Drake Moore Paul Moore John Morales Marc Moreno Dennis Morgan Gina Morton Melissa Morton Aaron Moss Arya Moti Michelle Mucher Leah Murphy Merlin Muschamp Joseph Mutter Thuy Nguyen

Days Off Benefit All Sleeping in on weekdays was a pleasure most stu- dents loved, and thanks to the School Improvement Plan (SIP), all ot Norths students could enjoy a mid- week day off by sleeping in and doing other pleasurable activities. The main purpose of these SIP release days was to give the school a direction toward its goals. On those days teachers were very busy and more exhausted than usu- al, stated Categorical Program Specialist Maggie Kingsbury. What were the teachers doing, you ask? They were helping to put the three year school improve- ment plan to work, or hearing lectures designed to pro- mote better teachinq. The staff working at North is striving to make this school the best it can possibly be, emphasized Kings- bury. To do this, more SIP days were needed in the future, and that certainly met with approval from the student body. With visions of sugar plums dancing in his head, Kubitt Moore sleeps in on a SIP day. SIP days gave students a chance to catch up on many things, including sleep. tlf t Martha Martinez Miguel Martinez Paul Martinez Tanya Martinez Vince Martinez Dana Marzett Sasha McDaniels Katie McCarty Randy McCoy Russ McDonald Joseph McDonnell Matthew McGrath Kenneth McKnight Conrad McQueen Victoria Melton Remy Miller Tami Milligan sophomores 123
