On The Rise CLASS OF '85: Sponsor: Jackie Deckel, President: Shannon Souvenir, Vice- President: Melissa McNulty, Secretary: Janine Smith, Treasurer: Bonnie Cary. In September, the Class of ’85 took a big step forward when they became the ninth freshman class to inhabit the school since it open- ed in 1974. This step toward adulthood was not easy to make but the Class of ’85’s sponsor, Mrs. Jackie Deckel, along with the freshman class officers, Shannon Souvenier, Melissa McNulty, Janine Smith, and Bonnie Cary, and the class council, who were chosen in the second quarter, gave the class a “boost” on their rise upward. The year started out well with the Homecoming float plac- ing third in the float competition. The ninth graders were off to a good start with a small step upstairs but a giant leap into their future. he Class of '85 officers stand in front of one of the many spirit promoting murals in SS 3.

For the class of '87, the birth of their secondary school careers was one of the most prominent events. Activities, including a visit to Gettysburg and a trip to Leewood Nursing Home, were a few ways this introduction was made easier. With the elder class, the attention was focused on in-school activities, culminating with the Braddock County Country Fair. The coopera- tion between the two classes, however, was how the first years at the school were really made memorable. This work lasted throughout the year, but reigned supreme during Homecoming, when the intermediates won the float content. The start of secon- dary school was a significant time, and the classes of ’86 and '87 bridged this threshold with ex- emplary spirit. The leaders of the up and coming class of '86. Anne Cirillo, Karen Farlano. Kim Curuthe Mark Wayland, and Lynn Calvert, rest after helping plan the intermediate dance.
