EPAULET 1983 Joseph Kershaw— Springdale Schools 50 Springdale Dr. Camden. SC. 29020 k £1 Together We Are Something 2 3 Dedication Each year, a member of the faculty or administration is singled out for having made a significant contribution to our school. Because she has shared her philosophy, knowledge, love, and warmth with us all, we lovingly dedicate our annual to Mrs. Joyce Matthews. Her own life-sytle and philsophy reflect what we would like to strive for: “A philosophy of life is easier to EXPERIENCE than to express. 1 feel I have a definite philosophy, but it is open-ended: it changes as one grows older and wiser. One very important work in my philosophy is “joy.” To have each day possess its particular joy implies a basis of faith, love, and laughter. These are things that are nourished with-in and dominate over circumstances.” 4 Together We All Go Forward Seniors Stan Williams Stan the Man ... always up to something ... crazy ... Standard ... loves to party ... Johnnie Walker's little buddy ... Rick Shoolbred Ricky Ticky ... loves that yellow Mazda ... tunes are the max ... “Oh, shutup, Billy!” ... Randy Ash Megahurt . .. never drives under 70 mph ... Well, Mrs. Martineau, in answer to your question” ...” The Alabama Bum” ... 6 High School If one were to walk into the boisterous classrooms of the High School, one would be greeted by ... “Wake up, George Satterfield! ... How you doin’. Little Phil? ... True, man, true ... Well ... Hey, Jo Bo Kokomo ... Shut up, Wobak ... ” Though mischievous now, these eager students do have greater plans for the future. 7 Eighth Seventh The combining of the seventh and eight grades this year was an exciting experience for each class, and rumor has it that some life- long friendships have been made. Love and humor express what these young people are all about. Conversation ranges from the latest rock to the “Craft Age”. These independent scholars are being prepared for laborious duties in high school, and their response to exams was, “Like barf me out the door. 8 Chris Gamble Jennifer Goff April Kennington Kris Kilpatrick Kelly Lewis William Rogers Alyssa Stahl Amanda Stahl Tracey Thomas Frank Thompson Bryan Young 9 Sixth Fifth Even though the fifth and sixth grade is a very small class, it is a very special one. The children in Mrs. Matthews’ class are often referred to as the “little angels,” although the rest of us do NOT understand why ... J 10 Chris Rabon Trey Thomas Geoffrey Threatt Brian Kirkland II Fourth Third Mrs. Quick definitely enjoys her work with the children even though they are very talkative. Needless to say, they are very bright children- especially when it comes to discussions! Chris Beckman Hamilton Boykin Johnny Buckley Nicholas Corbin 12 Mandy James Doug Kirkland Kirk Kirkland Kevin Miles Kelly Webb Shannon Webb 13 Burwcll Boykin Ashley Clyburn Chris Fields Sara Gravino Cathy Hinson Nicole Horton r' Second First 14 If one were to walk into the first and second grade classroom, he would be greeted by tiny faces of joy. The themes of the first and second graders are: Who Am I? Where Am I going? And What Am I Doing? They have done a great deal of creative writing and a number of science experiments. 15 Sringdale School Bo Edens Brian High Keith Hodge Byron Wilde William Arthur Warren Brooks Jeff Chester Sometimes called the “oldest class, Mr. Blitch's group presently consists of high school age young men in various stages of development and academic levels. Most of the students have different goals, such as attaining a G.E.D. certificate, entering J.K.S., their hometown high school or another boarding school. All in all, they arc a “mixed bag which is constantly changing. 16 Although an easy atmosphere settles upon the Krolewicz classroom, much work gets accomplished there. Mornings are a time of seriousness, for this is when “Krolo” reads his paper and passes out everyone’s folders which contains the work for the day. The thing Mr. Krolewicz most enjoys about teaching is watching a student understand a concept for the first time. 17 The atmosphere in Mr. Ball’s classroom reflects his philosophy: “If you come to my class, be prepared to work hard ... I'll push you to your limit and beyond. I’ll challenge you to make accomplishments you never dreamed possible ... I care about you and know what you are going to have to face in life. That is why I make you work and demand so much of you now ... to make it easier for you later.”. Mrs. Barnhart’s class is “A very consistent and structured environment where my students have a complete understanding from the beginning what is expected of them in order to progress at an adequate pace. My students arc my special family in that I care so much about their needs indivdually. Their progress, academically and emotionally, is of utmost importance to me. 4 19 Miss Welborn's most oft repeated word? Work, Work, W'ork! Which We Do—and which is paying off— I'm awfully proud of my class. The second most repeated word? Love It! 20 Mrs. Reed is a teacher who is very sensitive to her students’ needs. Every minute of the day is spent towards enriching each child's academic level and emotional growth. One blessing experienced by Mrs. Reed everyday is the smile on a child's face after sucess has been achieved. David Beard Jay Burris Robert Igar Chris Kulis Brian Patric May Maribcl Parras Patti Rogers Herman Weiss 21 “Our class is full of personalities; for instance we have “Captain America,”“The Bird, Tig Pen,' and many others. Each has his own style. They are all special and have become very special to me. I wish for them success and the many rewards hard work can bring. 22 James Ball Trey Bragdon Curl Hill James Mattmiller Hard work is the keynote in Miss DcKay's room. The children, however, don't mind because they learn and know how much Miss DeKay loves them. 23 The transitional first grade of Mrs. Sternberg and Mrs. Quigley is a new class for Springdale School. Mornings with Mrs. Sternberg are spent learning the “Three R's.” Afternoons with Mrs. Quigley are devoted to language and speech development and learning to get along better with others.
