Prtde, Work, and Erttlwstasm Create Spirit Among Students Schools are admired for their spirit or admonished for lack of it. Yet, how does one define school spirit? To many people, it means merely crowds and noise. But at Kelvyn Park, it is more. We too back our teams with cheers. And our ap- plause can be deafening when we greet a welcomed guest. But we have another side to our spirit. lt is more elusive and harder to define. lt can be seen in the smile on a student's face when she receives recognition for a job well done. It can be seen in the many hours and effort that students put into various school activities: dances, festivals, plays, clubs, and publications. What then is school spirit at Kelvyn Park? It is a' combina- tion of pride, hard work, and enthusiasm. SCIENCE FAIR award winner Mary Malebranche receives congrat- ulations and a S25 bond from Principal Dr. Wesley Amar. TENSE ERS draw humorous glances from Tom Andricopoulas and Randy Placko as they break anxious silence at a football game

ON HIS WAY to basketball practice, Mike Kirkwood takes time out for a few friendly words with Pamela Altenburg. E i Tv, I Bells ring, lockers slam, students scurry. The day be- gins. There are books to be read, homework to finish, tests to pass. Every forty minutes we find ourselves in a new room with a different teacher. Finally, lunch! We swap the latest gossip, discuss the newest fashions, and chomp into our sandwiches. But then there's that bell again. As we jostle through the halls, we catch that certain smile' or simple hello. lt makes us feel warm. lt makes us feel we belong. Our next teacher cracks a joke, the class laughs, and soon we are off on a heated discussion. We leave the room chatting away with our classmates. A few months earlier, we hardly knew anyone in the class. But then there were the con- versations, and new friendships began. We put our books away only to hurry off to a committee meeting or to sell skating party tickets or to finish a science fair project. All of this may be labeled routine. Per- haps it is. But it is routine with spirit.
