Kalida High School - Kalidascope Mirror Yearbook (Kalida, OH)

Text from Pages 1 - 120 of the 1987 volume:

I One of the biggest advantages of a small high school like ours is the variety and large number of friends that are made. These friends add spice and fun to the sometimes monotonous days of high school life, as well as support and sympathy in the bad times. Reading this yearbook may stir up memories, causing both laughter and tears. This book, Kalidascope '87, is dedicated to these friendships. Enjoy! 3 STUDENT BODY Fitting Together As Friends The Student Body at KHS gives the atmosphere of friendship. In a small school like KHS, everybody knows everyone else and everyone seems to be FRIENDS. Special Times, IXVfV. V A Dennis A. Blankemeyer Ilse M. Brascamp Donna J. Buss Chad A. Cattell Jill M.
