The Class of 1988 started off the year with a BLASTP The seniors stole the show at homecoming with their amazing Teacup float. The senior class officers, Laurie Costa, Tina Zuppa, Ilene Prusher, and Dave Pa- gano, a.k.a. The Original Awesome Foursome, have been the most enthu- siastic and industrious officers ever. They helped to make the senior prom at the Crest Hollow Country Club on April 29th a special night to remember. The Class of '88 will remain a legend in our hearts and minds. We have laughed together and cried together. In the short time we shared, we created memories that will last forever. As the year started, three of the four junior class officers were rookies in the field of student government. Their ex- perienced advisor, Mr. Johnston, soon taught them to reach out to the Class of 1989. By homecoming, the juniors had earned the title of most school spirit . Honoring tradition, they sponsored the second annual painting of the bleachers to show the juniors' support for our football team. We have ac- complished a lot during the year and I hope we'll go on to accomplish much more, said President Jackie Tuorto, We have a lot to look forward to. Most of the sophomore class started its school year even before school be- gan. The first Sophomore Orientation was initiated this year and academic! extra-curricular activities were encour- aged. Traditionally, the class officers Cathy Saavedra, Lynda Nealis, Jen Truozzo, and Missy Reilly are in charge of running the class ring and class shirt fundraisers. These energetic officers have also ran many bake sales and candy sales. It is clear that the Class of 1990 has made an impact on Kings Park High School. vclass officers I SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS: President Laurie Costa, Treasurer Dave Pagano, Secretary Ilene Prusher, and Vice President Tina Zuppa. ian-lmeim 1 JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS: Vice President Karen Murray, President Jackie Tuorto, Sec- retary Tara Jordan, and Treasurer Mike Moser. v-jmrmmuuuv-nv . , 2 M ag 55 22 I I gf' SOPHMORE CLASS OFFICERS: Vice President Lynda Nealis, President Kathy Saavedra, Secretary Melissa Reilly, and Treasurer Jennifer Truozzo.

From 7:45 to 1:57 each school day, our lives center around a daily grind, but after 1:57, sophmores zoomed from meeting to meeting: juniors crammed clubs into their busy schedules: and seniors cruised in to join the action. Aimee Colgan, this year's S.A.D.D. president summed it up when she said, being involved in our school's clubs has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Whether the object of the club was service, achieve- ment, or just plain fun they were all brought together in A Balanced Image.

Editors Amy Nichols and Alyson Elish felt it was time to give the paper a new look. The first step was the in-house production of the newspaper on a computer. This reduces the production costs and allows the staff to publish more stories. Advisor Mr. Sackett, Mr. Brennan and Mrs. Todaro, helped the newpaper staff has conquer the com- puter room. Despite some intial difficul- ties in adjusting to the computerized newsroom, this new system has made Take Five better than ever. EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT!
