Sometimes only the writing on the wall can add excitement to an otherwise dull day. In a new school with freshly paint- ed walls, grafitti can stand out like a sore thumb. Only the craftiest indi- vidual can hope to leave his message in some obsure place without being caught and assigned permanent clean up duty. Thus, the Pioneer staff decided to use the Pi oneer to leave behind their own brand of grafitti. Long corridors are a distinguishing feature of the new school. The long sidewalks simply introduce the maze of equally long corridors inside the building.

Sports ... such as basketball occupy much of the student's time outside of the classroom. Academics occupies the major portion of the student’s day and involves members of the community such as super- visor Richard Settle. Clubs and Organizations help to involve students in out- side activities such as the publi- cation of the Pioneer by the journalism class. Portraits ... show the faces of the many members of the stu- dent body whom Mr. Phillippi photographed. Faculty ... provide the leader- ship for the student body in all daily activities.

Graffiti leaves impressions For the first time in years the freshmen were not the only ones who were lost the first day of school. The unfamiliar surround- ings and seemingly endless hall- ways presented a challenge to al- most every member ofthe stu- dent body, with the exception of those who toured the school dur- ing the summer. Although every- one received a map of the school, it seemed impossible for each in- dividual to be in the right place at the right time. As the days pass of “writing on the walls” to learn the short cuts and re-adjust to study habits which were neglect- ed during summer vacation. In ad- dition to new academic activities, clubs were organized and_ play ices began. Fall sports com- menced and homecoming festivi- ties quickly followed. With the old routine underway, the year promised to be a good one in all new surroundings. Tammy Buckles, 4 member of the junior class, summed it up by say- ing, “At first, things were really confusing because nobody knew where they were going OF what was going on, but then everything got back to normal, and the only thing that was different was the school.”” Some students missed the old school, but starting a new year in a new school was exciting for all classes. ed it took a lot For the first play presented at the new school (The Best Little Christmas Pageant Ever), senior Pam Hendrickson helps Tina Barbour, also a senior, with her make-up: Theme 3 4 Student Life While taking 4 lunch break, Seniors pride in rece wythville Band Festival. son.and Richard Tompe ow they can improve their h play- iVINg, superior ratin Junior Sharon Adams shows Jackie ba Fields and Miller Castle where they — should stand for their “Most Athletic” senior superlative picture. Etching memories in the mind The first few days of student life were strange for upper- classmen and totally foreign for freshmen, but the days passe rapidly and everyone solved the maze and. became accus- tomed to their new environ- ment. Students finally settled down, got involved, and en- joyed the activities that made up—_their...very-—OWn “student life”. Whether it was a Compe tition outside of school, a play, a dance, or just a friendly con- versation at lunch or in the hall, students took pride in all they were involved with. As the end of another year rapidly approached, the antici- pation of summer activities grew. For underclassmen there would be more high school days; the seniors, however, reached the most anticipated event of high school — gradu- ation! The seniors, as well-as underclassmen, etched the days of ‘student life” into their memories. Soaking in the sun, Rachel Rasnake, Tina Honeycutt, Wendy Harrison, Te- resa Goss, and Anita Bumgardner enjoy 4 break from classes caused by a bomb threat.

Students dressed in shorts, tank tops, sunglasses, and flip-flops to “get into” Beach Day on Wednesday. Hug a Pioneer Day was set for Thursday so the enthusiasm could be passed from a football player or cheerleader to some- one else the day before the big game. Finally, on Friday, many students dressed in red, white, and black to show support for the team. Spirit Week concluded with a pep rally in the new gym. A funny three-legged race with two teachers and six students ended the pep rally. The week ended with an ex- tra bang when the football team won a victory over the Pa- tric Henry Rebels.

The long anticipated day had finally ar- rived, and the fire deep in their eyes proved that this Homecoming was destined to be the best ever.

How- ever, pride wasn’t an exclusive sen- ior class possession; the entire stu- dent body managed to find some outlet for the expression.of. pride. Each day of the homecoming week, cheerleaders called for a different method to demonstrate school spirit such as painting faces, wearing clothing backwards, wearing. beach attire, or wearing school colors. The final day of working on floats brought.a.feeling. of excitement. to the student body. The bonfire pro- vided a warm place to build pep for the following day. The traditional trip to “fix the rocks” after the bon- fire became a race to see who.would. get there first.

There was a chill in the air, but warm spirit and heated excitement prevailed. The excitement” peaked as the teams took the field. The Patrick Henry Rebels looked on helplessly as their nightmare was beginning. The 37-7 win for the home team proved that the careful planning and con- stant fan support ended with victory. After an excellent first half, the band, Parade Marshall, and home- coming attendants took the field. The band paraded on the field in the homecoming formation as Kenneth “Fish” Ferguson was announced as the Parade Marshall. Homecoming attendants walked with anticipation onto. the field and took their places. Silence descended on the spectators as the crowd waited for the coming announcement. With suspense at its peak, Angie Ratliff and Miller Castle were crowned Homecoming Queen and King. The reign will last only a year but their memories will last for- ever. The fine performance of the band, announcements of Parade Marshall, King and Queen set the stage for the exciting second half of the game. The game created an exciting mood for the homecoming dance.

Spirit radiated from the cheerleaders to the student body during the short time set aside for the events. The tough competition for the Spirit. Stick was determined by cheerleading sponsor Mrs. Kathy Goodson. Because the freshmen had a notably larger number of students, the volume of their class cries was louder. The homecoming pep rally was the most organized, eventful and the longest. Activities ranged from the three-legged race, toilet tissue wrap-up contest, and soda drinking races. Wendy’s provided the awards for the winners. On sunny days, many of the pep rallies were held outside. These pep rallies were just as exhilarating and exciting as the ones held indoors. The last pep rally held was the best ever. Many of the student body went home with sore throats but hopeful hearts. The excitement aroused by the cheering desperately to win the spirit stick.

Both were members of the cast of the Christmas play. performance. Play’s the thing Putting together a play is not al- ways the easiest thing to do; just ask Ms. Virginia Fuller, the speech and drama teacher. She used both class- room methods and actual play pro- duction to instruct the students about presence before an audience. Just before Christmas, the class performed The Best Little Christmas Pageant Ever. Two months of hard work went into this play and the ac- tual performance left both teacher and students with something to be proud of. In the spring the speech class put together two one act plays: t’s Cold in Them Thar Hills, and Louder | Can’t Hear You. The first was obvi- ously a hillbilly drama while the lat- ter was somewhat more contempo- rary. Both plays were comedies and were well received by the student body. At the close of the year, the entire class expressed the belief that all had satisfied the objectives of the course: They could speak before an audi- ence and do it with poise. In addi- tion to this, they also provided the Getting a group of delinquents to cooperate bers, Pam Hendrickson, and Tina Barbour student body with many hours of is difficult for Mother, Lori Chafin, as (srs.) | show her. enjoyment.

It’s a boy’s night out Dances at the old high school were exciting, but there was something even more special about a dance in the new school. The Sadie Hawkins dance was the first one held in the new high school. The students not only looked forward to pulling out bibbed overalls and straw hats, but doing the flat foot on the new dance floor. The dance was held in the lobby, and all students had a free view through the skylight. The. National. Honor. Society sponsored the Sadie Hawkins dance and took upon themselves all the work and planning. Math teachers and co-sponsors, Mr. Morley. Jones and Mrs. Mina Jones, had the job of seeing that everything was done correctly and on time. The main event of the night was the announcement of Mr. and Ms. Dogpatch. The lucky couple with the best outfits were senior, Doug. Lark..and junior, Cindy Warner. Many students dressed up for the occasion and danced to the top-forty music provided by Sound Factory. Another event that provided entertainment for the students was the dance shared by Mrs. Mina Jones and junior, Jason Barney.

School titles were swept up by a variety of talent- ed students. Lisa Salyers claimed the title in spelling; Michelle Cozzolino took the school title in poetry read- ing. Salyers and Cozzolino traveled to Abingdon, VA, in November to represent the school in district com- petition. The Great Smokey Mountain De- bate Tournament was held in Gatlin- burg, TN, in February. Melanie Hart and Pam Hendrickson were awarded second and third place speaker, re- spectively. The debate team, under the guidance of Mrs. Helen Gilmer, English teacher, and Mr. Billy Rhea, government teacher, took second place overall.

Senior Keith Bowman, who worked for Sound Factory, and who was in the Honor Society, helped with these things. These two factors helped the dance to be an even bigger success than imagined. The dance was not only a social success but another success for the National Honor Society.

The suspense peaked as Molly O’Bryan_ was crowned Homecoming Queen. Each of the players was glorified in moments of victory, and they ago- nized in moments of defeat. Even though the game was lost, the spirits remained very high.

Students and teachers worked toward making school life a rewarding and fulfilling experience. Academics played a ma- jor role in the lives of everyone; however, sports, clubs, dramatic productions, band and choral activi- ties gave everyone an added incen- tive for participation. The new building provided an at- mosphere in which students wanted to work and take an active part in all activities. Students provided the life- force for an otherwise empty shell. Their voices filled the halls; their hands decorated the bulletin boards; their minds excelled in competi- tions; their physical abilities won the sports events.

No one anticipates the day more than a sen- ior. Now all academic awards are an- nounced, but some are for seniors only. This year, instead of ten top sen- iors, there were eleven announced due to the tie for valedictorian. Then all senior members of the Honor So- ciety were recognized. Now the nail biting began in an- ticipatio n of the announcement of several coveted awards. Charlotte Tiller breathed a sigh of relief as Mrs. Kaye Tate announced that she was the recipient of the history trophy while John Bolling was all smiles as he was named the senior athlete scholar. Both Fred Pruner and Scar- let Sword received medals for 100 plus averages in math, and the gym continued to ring with applause as students received their due recogni- tion.

Senior Awards 31 ‘“Cherish’’ 32 Prom the moment In past years it was customary to spend up to a week decorating for the prom, but this year work time was drastically reduced. Because the lobby was used daily, it was impossi- ble to begin decorating before Sat- urday morning. To save time on the actual deco- rating day, art classes constructed the balloon cluster chandeliers, the umbrellas and center pieces for the tables, and made paper flowers dur- ing the week. These items, however, were not actually put in place until Saturday morning, only hours before the prom. When the long-awaited prom day arrived, students entered the school at 10 A.M., and in a matter of hours the lobby, which was merely a walk- way all week, was transformed into an enchanting garden, complete with umbrellas and a gazebo. Every student easily found a deco- rating job to do or an errand to run. They filled helium balloons, hung streamers, and covered tables.

Dancers party hearty Although a tradition in itself, the annual prom went through several changes and improvements. For the first time in fifteen years, the big dance was held somewhere other than the gym. Instead, sponsors and students transformed the lobby into a setting to be ‘‘cherished.” The gar- den party atmosphere elevated the spirits and the excitement of the party-goers. Tuxedoes, floor-length gowns and cocktail dresses glittered on the dance floor to the music of U.S. Bang. Going out to dinner before the prom has been another practice which has evolved in the last few years. Students who did not choose to frequent local establishments traveled to Bristol or Abingdon for dinner. One of the highlights of the even- ing was the Garter Ceremony. Mon- ey from the sale of the garters and other memorabilia helped to finance the prom. Guys and gals alike laugh- ingly participated in the removal of the garters.

The new gymnasium was somewhat stuffy but nothing compared to the auditorium in the old school. The larger facility enabled families to enjoy the ceremony to a greater extent.

Those who participated were lucky not to be punished by the administration or bad weather.

Even though things were not all fun and games for the Lady Pioneers, they displayed many skills and much improvement. Teamwork and determi- nation played an impor- tant role in their efforts to win. One incident which deterred them from suc- cess was the switching of gyms during mid-season. This incident kept the Lady Pioneers from really establishing a home court. Individual efforts flour- ished this season with sen- ior Jackie Fields leading in scoring and senior Glenda Fields leading in rebound- ing. Next year will be very trying for the Lady Pio- neers because of the de- parture of four seniors: Glenda Fields, Jackie Fields, Pam Hendrickson, and Kelly Clark. Coach Cathy Smith will have new clay to mold, with the ex- ception of the two re- turning starters Cindy Warner and Sharon Ad- ams.

More than half of the team members were underclassmen who are eligible to return next year. All the girls were dedicated and equally skilled in the sport; Coach Greer referred to this when he said “They’re all even.” Three eighth-graders on the team (Karen Farley, Heather Kiser, and Becky Crowder) gained valuable experience. Two fresh- men added strength to the team. Cheryl Amos was the leading scorer and Robbie Gilbert was the leading rebounder. An- other freshman Sonja Bur- rell, gained much experi- ence and is eligible to return next year. Sopho- more members Tracey Parris, Dee-Dee Gilmer, Kristie Riddle, Raquel Oliuo, Angie Lester, Jen- nifer Ferguson, Dawn Cornet, Jennifer Crowder, and J.J.

This was one of the better records for the male tennis team in several years. All but two of the top eight seeds were filled by veterans from last year’s team. The list of veterans in- cluded: Mike Vencill (sr.), Thomas Munsey (jr.), Gary Shreve (jr.), Todd Cross (soph.), Darrell Musick (soph.), and Joel Harrison (soph.).

The season ended with an over-all record of 2-7 with the two wins coming against Richlands. Only senior Lori Chafin will not be returning to the team next year and some members of the junior varsity squad should be mov- ing up.

They also pro- moted school spirit by leading the pep club in cheers to build the team members’ confidence. They also gave the students the opportunity to take part in Spirit Week. Homecoming Week, the Varsity cheerleaders brought out plans for a dance routine performed to “Here She Comes” by the Cars. Unfortu- nately, after long hours of practice, technical difficulties cancelled that performance. Undaunted, however, they later were able to make up for lost time. The cheerleaders were sponsored by Ms. Virginia Fuller, who has been their sponsor for several years. She has supported them and helped them prepare for Homecoming Week and other activities through- out the season. Although the basketball team did not have a successful season, the cheerleaders should be acknowl- edged for a job well-done. Basketball Cheerleaders 51 Disap- pointing season rears its ugly head By December 3, the Pio- neers were prepared with a fast-pace offense that Coach Dickie Greer had envisioned for this group of players. Greer listed depth and quickness as his team’s strong points, and he cer- tainly had plenty of that. Height and experience were not really effective in the Pioneer attack, but Greer had several players that could get up there with the best of them. The Pioneers were led by senior guard Orlando “DUKE” Early, averaging 16 points per game and 5.2 re- bounds. Benny Burrell led the Pioneers in rebounding with 8.2 rebounds per game. Although their 4-17 over- all and 2-13 district record did not show their competi- tiveness and desire to win, the Pioneers exhibited great ability and sportsmanship throughout the season.

A loss the next week to John Battle was as dim, but the team ral- lied with a 13-7 victory over Marion. Now with high spir- its, the next loss to Abingdon was taken in stride, especial- ly when everyone realized that the Pioneers had held one of their toughest oppo- nents to just 6 points. An im- pressive victory over Castlewood lifted team spir- its to the heavens; the fol- lowing week, the confident team was able to win the Homecoming game against Patrick Henry. Personal successes ex- ceeded the success of the team as a whole. Offensive members of the All County football team included sophs. Brad Jones and Benny Burrell; juniors Neil Smith and Aaron Buchanan; and sr. Miller Castle. Defensive members were jrs. Todd Henley and Neil Smith and sr. Doug Lark.

The 134’ X 254’ gymnasium with three playing floors gave a) added dimension to physical education classes. Biology and chemistry labs were equipped with work areas where students could experiment safely and effectively. The new library occasionally ac- commodated several classes at a time. The separate periodicals room, audio-visual room and con- ference room presented oppor- tunities for advanced researc and study. All in all, academic horizons were broadened and improved. The learning experience was there for those who wished to use It. Experiments add_a little extra spice to the technical atmosphere of chemistry classes.

The new school provided space for both foreign language teachers to display art and foreign souvenirs. The Spanish teacher, Mrs. Bobbie Marshall, enjoyed the per- manent classroom that she had long wanted. French teacher, Mrs. Anne Trumbo, relaxed somewhat because of the help from Emory and Henry student teacher Ms. Brenda Macall. The French classes admired the many objects Mrs. Trumbo collected from France which were on display on the bookshelves. The language lab provided a place for students to listen to special tape recordings. The French IV class, which consisted of three females, was held practically everyday in the language lab. The Spanish classes were very large in size. The Spanish II] class was Mrs. Marshall’s largest class for one period and also the largest third year class ever. The new facilities created a better student morale which resulted in better work and higher grades. The surroundings, no windows kept the students’ minds on “bon, Merci” and “como esta.” Mrs. Marshall’s opinion of teach- ing is summed up in her statement, “| like to teach students who are willing to learn, but | don’t enjoy try- ing to teach students who could care less.” Jackie Large and Rebecca Shortridge take time to laugh a little in their Spanish class.

The first year of english was filled with shocking lectures and flying erasers. The second year taught the correct techniques of the in-depth research paper. By the third year, students learned to explicate long verses of poetry. As the final year of secondary English commenced, sen- iors realized there would be tattered paperback novels to be completed for discussion and essay. All students were familiar with writer’s cramp, long lists of vocabu- lary, and essays written at 1:00 a.m. Jason Barney, junior, remarked, “Even though we’re in a new school, the English teachers are still the same.” Videos, filmstrips, and long novels were used as popular teach- ing methods. But the old-fashioned lecture dominated the English lesson plans. Students find it difficult to listen to long lec- Bartee’s English 12 class.

Social studies came to the front this year when they cleaned house at the regional History Day competi- tion at Emory Henry College. The contest is sponsored by the Virginia Society of History Teachers and is held each year to find Virginia’s competitors in the National History Day competition at College Park, Maryland. Nineteen Lebanon High students were chosen at the regionals to go on to the state competition at Lynchburg. Here, seniors Shannon Lambert, Karen White, and Patricia Boothe along with sophomore Shayne Pruitt took first place with an original drama on Marbury vs. Madi- son. Michelle Parker took a third with an individual project on the ° Alamo while seniors Fred Pruner, Orlando Early, Scott Taylor and Mark Pruitt took a fourth place with a computer media project on the Gary Powers incident.

Traveling to Lynchburg on a school bus is no picnic, but at least this year there were no mechanical problems or accidents. The hard trip was, however, soon forgotten as the group turned their attention to doing well and having fun. They did, of course, make the annual pilgrimage to the Red Lobster. It seems that Coach Thompson will consider no trip complete without such a side stop and fellow sponsor along on the trip, Mrs. Debbi Camp- bell, found herself in complete agreement. Coach Thompson’s only complaint was that he was unable to bring home a tray of those Red Lobster desserts that he so enjoys.

Each student decided on their topic and spent many hours on their projects. A lot of time went into the research and the building. The students chosen, out of many who entered, went to Emory and Henry College for Districts. At the Districts Lebanon captured many places in different divisions. In the Group Project, Keith Bowman, Kelly Herbert, Scott Taylor, Larry Null, and Pride in History Day projects is represented in the broad smiles of juniors Bryan Rasnake and David Bottigliere. Sherry Allen took first with their presentation on the Black Revolu- tion. Joe Lasley, Orlando Early, Mark Pruitt, and Freddie Pruner received second for their Media Presentation. For an Individual Presentation, Mi- chelle Parker received first. For a presentation on The Sc opes Trial, Steve Lampkins, Mike Vencill, Re- lana Ellinger, and Melanie Hart tied with Denise Asbury, Karen White, and Patricia Boothe for first in the Group Presentations.

ERC 80 Math Solutions are found Mathematics, the master of all sci- ences, taught students to reason and think clearly and precisely with little or no hesitation. Under the capable leadership supplied by the math- ematics department, students gained skills that would benefit them in their other classes as well as in the highly advanced competitive world of today. Proficiency in mathematical skills has assumed more importance with each passing year. Computers and high-technology introduced an age Smiling from ear to ear, Natalie Chambers proudly accepts her math award from Mr. Morley Jones. which flourished on mathematical knowledge and application. Aside from the more advanced algebra and geometry classes, the basic courses stressed the use of math skills in everyday life. Math students participated in local contests; academic awards were pre- sented to those who excelled in math courses; juniors and seniors struggled over problems on SAT tests. Assisted by the experienced minds of the mathematics instruc- tors, students left school with the skills and ambition to either gain em- ployment or aspire for more exten- sive study at college. Taking that extra moment, Mrs. Jenny McGlothlin gives individual instruction to Pam Vance. The teaching of math required that teachers offer extra instruction on an in- dividual basis for students. Busy at work, Mr. Morley Jones carefully and thoroughly plans for his Algebra II classes. Mrs. Mina Jones explains the workings of an- gles and triangles to an alert audience. Math 81 82 Science When the freshmen and sophomores entered into high school, they discovered it was necessary to take at least two science courses in order to gra- duate. They could choose from any five science courses: Earth Science, Biology, Chemistry I, Chemistry II, or Physics. Earth science became a nec- essary course to take because of the changed requireme nts for a student to graduate. Earth science dealt with different subjects: nature, the earth, and other geological studies. Mr. Ashbrook taught his classes about his amateur spelunking in old caves, and Mrs. Taylor taught her classes about the rock samples she had collected at different places. When in tenth grade, sopho- mores had to take a course in Biology. Dissecting frogs, earthworms, and pigs were just a few of the labs they had to do.

In Chemistry | and II, juniors and seniors were taught the properties of many chemicals and formulas. They mixed, combined, and tested sub- stances ranging from ordinary salt water to a dangerous acid called hydrochloric acid. Many times the students worked in the laboratory area in groups or alone just for the fun of han- dling different types of chemi- Cals. In Physics class Mr. Kerry El- linger taught the students high- ly advanced methods of using chemicals. Most found _ this class extremely hard, but Mr. Ellinger found many ways to clarify matters for them. Making the right choice of test tube for the chemistry project, senior Lori Cha- fin hopes that all will go well. Science 85 86 Art Colors come alive Getting used to the magnificent art space in a new school was a wel- come change for second year stu- dents who had taken art in the crowded room of the old high school. Separate rooms for the ce- ramic kiln, storage of art supplies, picture development, and office plus the beautiful space designed for the art studio made students feel as if someone were taking art seriously after all! First year students began their year listening to lectures on the elements and principles of design and then jumped into drawing exercises. After that first sketchbook assign- ment, they felt more confident and were ready for anything. Art history was a struggle, but students enjoyed ceramics, weaving, wire sculpture, and working in plaster of Paris. Listening to art history lectures on the Renais- sance period is not as much fun as hands-on experience in art class.

Art 87 Keys open doors The Business Department boasted another successful year under the leadership of chairman, Mrs. Janette Wagoner. Aside from regular classes, the business department also spon- sored FBLA, adult education pro- grams, COE, and computer classes designed specifically for teachers. Business students are frequently offered opportunities for travel, competition and on-the-job train- ing. Advantages such as these en- hanced the performance and effi- ciency of both students and teach- ers.

Because young men are becoming more aware of the need to be famil- iar with household chores, more of them enrolled in home economics. They even became quite good at buying groceries, planning nutri- tional meals, and the art of table ser- vice. Helping to plan a mock wed- ding reception and entering food exhibits in the county fair were high- lights of the classes. The success of the home economics classes and the FHA in exhibiting food products at the Russell County Fair is proudly shown by the girls and boys of the classes.

With this recognition of sports and the individual fun that can be had, it is easy for the average person to push to the back of his mind the primary purpose of school: the pursuit of the academic life and preparation of the individual for the future. For this reason, one spring day each year is set aside for the recogni- tion of academic achievement on the part of individual members of the student body. At this time, each student can applaud the individual effort of his classmates in each sub- ject area. Every department in school presents certificates of achievement to those who have ex- celled in that particular subject area. A 3 point average or better is ap- plauded like a winning touchdown. Also accepting all-state choir awards from Mrs. Fuller are Cheryl Chambers and Mary Tomlinson. 92 Academic Awards The Dare You award is given to two rising seniors who show outstanding leadership and promise. This year, assistant principal Jamie Farley gives the award to Laura Sykes and Jo- seph Campbell. Beaming with pride, Amy O'Bryan accepts her junior all-state choir award from Mrs. Wrenda Fuller. The geometry awards presented by Mr. Mor- ley Jones go to a host of sophomores which included Angela Wilson, Melanie Rasnake, Joey Coleman and Shayne Pruitt. Director of the forensic one act play, Mrs. Loretta Cox presents certificates to her cast members. Shown here are Susan Buckles, eee Pruitt, Ruby Howard, and Beverly Els- wick. Spanish teacher Mrs. Bobbi Marshall presents a certificate of superior achievement in Span- ish Ill to junior Tammy Barbour. The Algebra II awards presented by Mr. Mor- ley Jones go to those students who have earned an A in the course. Here, Tammy Bar- bour accepts her award while other award winners, Cindy Warner, Mary Sue Fields, and Wesley Mullins, look on. Two other recipients of the award were Robin Breeding and David Hubble.

Aside from her responsibilities as layout edi- tor for the yearbook, senior Lori Chafin writes an article for The Pathfinder. 96 Journalism Staff meets deadlines Having little or no idea of how to put a yearbook together, the jour- nalism class faced a challenge. Each day they found new materials to work with and new methods to learn. They planned, however, to produce a yearbook from amidst the confusion. The yearbook staff followed rules which were outlined by the Virginia High School League. The journalism students attended two workshops: one at Abingdon High School and Paper Staff — Angie Porter, Wendy Harrison, Russ Combs, Wiley Davis, Sharon Adams. SNK Yearbook Staff — Front row: Lori Chafin, Christie Boothe, Pam Hendricks, Jill Breeding, Jamie Chafin, Joie Artrip, Becky Gregory. Back another at the University of Virginia. After the workshops ended, the students went back to their work- room to put their new knowledge to use. With the help of others who were not in journalism, but wished to work on the yearbook, they met deadlines. The Pathfinder was also a product of the journalism class.

Journalism 97 Council has busy year “Busy” certainly described the Student Council As- sociation. Activities began for the council even before the school year officially started. A revised edition of the student handbook and freshmen orientation led the way in immediate preparations. The council planned carefully in the money depart- ment. In order to raise needed funds, the SCA spon- sored many student body activities. The major fund raising events were five dances plus the homecoming dance and mum sales. The SCA used this money in order to purchase American and Virginia flags for the little theater. However, dances were merely one type of responsi- bility that the SCA became involved in. The Homecom- ing Parade and half-time activities drew the energy out of the few organizers. One organizer, senior Lori Cha- fin said, ‘I was too tired to go to the game after getting ready for it all week long!” Two additional activities which the council cooperat- ed with were the White Christmas program and the March of Dimes Walk-a-thon. The student body pro- vided a fruitful Christmas for fourteen local families. The SCA officers senior John Bolling, president; ju- nior Cindy Warner, vice-president; and senior Angie Ratliff, secretary, found it disappointing to give up their positions to new officers on awards day. The transition from the old officers to the new ones became evident when John Bolling was relieved of his announcement task and Laura Sykes, the newly elected president, struggled through the handwritten announcements.

They sponsored the Sadie Hawkins and the Ides of March dances. These dances were not only great social successes but also great fund raisers. The Honor Society is a club for students who are academic achievers. Each member must have achieved a 3.5 over-all average by the spring of his or her sopho- more year. They focus their attention on both academics and after-school activities. This club is sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. Morley Jones. A dinner at the Bonanza restaurant was the site of the formal induction of new members. At this time each new member received his society pin which he can now wear with pride throughout his high school years.

FBLA (Fu- ture Business Leaders of America) members enhanced their in-school training through a number of these activities. Membership in FBLA meant a busy schedule of business classes, long hours of practice for competitions on both the local and state levels and working for local businesses. Students who could not handle the pressure simply dropped out; those who persevered knew that they were gaining invaluable experience. FBLA gave business students the chance to practice skills learned in the classroom. They not only completed exercises and took tests; they used their knowledge in practical every-day working situations. mf While helping with refreshments, seniors Nancy Puckett and Cindy Salyers prepare drinks for the COE luncheon. The luncheon, held in the Media Center in May, was attended by students, teachers and local business people who participated in COE. 106 FBLA Adults and students listen attentively to Tina Stanford’s speech during the COE luncheon.

Mrs. Campbell, sponsor, also called special meetings to discuss and organize certain activities or to show a special film dealing with a subject related to the peer counselors or their interests. The counselors found that many meetings led to discus- sions about the problems and concerns of students, such as family problems, drug related problems, or concerns about friendships or dating. A popular activity early in the year which was sponsored by the peer counselors was the carnation sale. Students or- dered a single carnation to give to a friend at school. A red car- nation carried the message ‘‘1 Love You,” a pink carnation symbolized friendship, and white carnations were from se- cret admirers. White carnations caused confusion and puzzled looks on the faces of those who received them. The peer counselors hon- ored one student each month by naming him ‘student of the month”. The counselors also honored special people at school such as the teachers, the cooks and janitors, and the of- fice staff. Near the end of the year the counselors held one last special meeting to meet the new counselors whom Mrs. Camp- bell selected for next year.

It was here that after school activities took on the spirit of fun and even some hard work. The FHA and FFA confined most of their time to competition at the fairs and hands-on experience. The French and Spanish Clubs used their after hours to learn more about var- ious cultures while the High Y sought to learn more about govern- ment by participating in the MGA. This club also involved itself in com- munity service. Involvement is the key word in the description of this segment of the student body.

Five of the honor stu- dents delivered speeches to their fellow classmates as well as to an au- dience of friends, family members, and faculty. They spoke about their high school years and what they thought the future would bring to their graduating classmates. Although academic achievement was the basis for determining the honor students, the top eleven stu- dents also participated in activities such as sports, band, choir, debate, and other clubs and organizations. After four busy years these eleven students finished their high school career with pride. They received the diplomas which they had worked so hard to deserve.

Sen- site. iors Greg Vencill and Steve Lampkin palled The final year in high school was a time to be concerned with pep rallies, sporting events, dances, academic competitions, the prom, and most of all, baccalaureate and graduation. While plans were final- ized for the last semester of school, reser- vations for the traditional trip to Myrtle Beach were also made. The title of “senior” created excite- ment in itself, but, as a senior in a brand new high school, excitement was even stronger. However, some loathed the change of schools and missed the old place where good and bad memories were made. Many changes occurred during the transition of the move. The long windows by each classroom door never replaced the windows of the old school from which students used to gaze. Yet, these windows allowed the students to keep an eye on hall monitors, and the seniors who plot- ted against them. The carpet in most of the rooms tempted seniors to kick off their shoes and reminisce about the day they first entered high school and how their attitudes had changed. Although extracurricular activities were very important, numerous decisions about which colleges to be considered and to be enrolled in were utmost in im- portance. By the time graduation day rolled around, students realized that snow © days, discount prices into ball games, or _ the ever-challenging five-minute gab ses- sions between class no longer existed. __ Memories created during the four years | of high school, wherever the building, will last a lifetime. Good and bad memories remain in students’ minds only to be re- lived at the first class reunion. Sa a Des ee ghee pees gees EE ee pete ped rs Lisa A. Alexander Sherry L. Allen Shannon R.

The senior class officers had many responsibilities which had to be carried out completely. The senior homecoming float demon- strated the organization and planning of the class officers and students. The hard work paid off when the senior class walked away with the victory in the float competition for the second consecutive year. Seniors assured themselves a good time during the school year, but when spring rolled around, they began to get serious. Deadlines popped up and applications were mailed; then before long responses came pouring in. Approvals and rejec- tions made the students laugh and cry. When graduatio n day was set for June 10, and their high school career was draw- ing to a close, seniors began to prepare for the occasion. They completed term papers, prepared for exams, traded name cards, and returned borrowed items. As the big day approached, the seniors, with a tinge of sadness, came to realize that graduation was not the end, but a begin- ning of a new life and new experiences. Russell L. Combs Anita F.

As the daughter of a former school teacher, her realization of academic importance began early. One of the most exciting activities dur- ing Melanie’s high school career occurred during the summer following her junior year when she visited France under the Foreign Exchange Program. Along with having to depend upon her ability to speak French, she also had to overcome strep throat in order to take the family mountain-climbing trips in the Alps. Melanie participated as j.v. and varsity cheerleader for three years. She was also active in the gifted and talented program for five years. During Melanie’s senior year she participated as President of the National Honor Society. In addition, she competed with the top affirmative debate team for two years. She also served as a class officer during her four years of high school. Melanie’s academic and extracurricular activities have provided a sold back- ground for her future in attending the college of her choice and pursuing a ca- reer in medicine. Ruby A. Howard Laurie J.

November 16 was not without com- plications. There were numerous script and character changes and, of course, some mass confusion, but the show did go on — very well. After performing for the entire stu- dent body, the cast traveled to Ab- ingdon High School to compete on the district level. With the flashing of swords, the waving of fans, the sing- ing of the chorus, the cast placed second in the competition.

The newcomers began money- making projects, elected class offi- cers, and fantasized about attaining the glorified position of “senior.” They picked their favorite teachers, set their sights on that special some- one, and quickly adjusted to high school life. They also wondered if they would ever make it. Leading a pack of newcomers involves more than meets the eye. Freshman class officers, Terry Johnson, treasurer; Kelly Hammel, secretary; Tanya Ferguson, vice-president; and Todd Smith, president, enjoyed a relaxing moment in the sun. Sheldon M. Adams Harry W.

Gobble ew lood arrives Beginning their first year in high school, members of the freshman class initiated preparations for future years. One of their first projects was the selling of candy to earn the much needed funds for that future prom. However, fund raising was not the only thing in which these young students participated. Several others showed promise and success _ in sports, academic competitions, and various other extra-curricular activi- ties. Football homecoming called for representation from the freshman class. Tanya Ferguson and Fred Bur- rell were chosen by their fellow classmates for that honor while class- mates constructed a float for the pa- rade competition. These students were so successful with their first ef- forts, that they received the second place award. This year’s freshman class had the unique honor of not being alone with that lost feeling. The new school made it necessary for every- one, not just the freshmen, to learn which way to travel without becom- ing lost. Their success in this area also helped to demonstrate their de- termination to be out-standing indi- viduals. Carrying on the tradition of riding in the homecoming parade, Tanya Furguson (fresh- man attendant) rides above the shoulders of her escort Fred Burrell, also a freshman. 140 Freshmen Class April D.

Yet, there was something special about it for the freshmen. It was their very first basketball homecoming. For Paul Artrip and Krista Lambert there was an extra special touch. Krista Lambert was chosen as the freshmen attendant, and she chose Paul Artrip as her escort. This was an outstand- ing honor to receive in their first year of high school. All of their fel- low classmates cheered them on during the half-time ceremonies. } | Freshman basketball homecoming attendant Krista Lambert and her escort Paul Artrip walk onto the court.

Mrs. Linda Garrett and Mrs. Sue Poston take a short break from their moving chores. While having a meal in the new cafete- tia, Mr. Donald Moore, Mr. Jamie Far- ley, and Mr. Carl Jackson enjoy some great conversation. 144 Office Staff ie Miss Linda Cassell, Guidance Counselor } Mrs. Sue Poston, Secretary New school brings pride Summer vacation had just begun for the students, but for the office staff, the work was just beginning. Moving furni- ture and office files occupied much of their time, but the most frustrating of all the jobs performed was putting the pa- perwork in order for the com- ing year. Secretaries, Mrs. Sue Poston and Linda Garrett, spent much of their time refiling students’ records and preparing the pa- per work for the students arriv- ing in the fall. The guidance de- partment had to work with Mr. Moore preparing a workable schedule for that long list of classes for the student body. al Eee lt 2 Mrs. Linda Garrett, Secretary Office Staff 145 Getting involved builds relationships Giving tests and grading papers were not the only responsibilities teachers had. They took pride in the fact that they may have somehow in- fluenced the lives or future plans of even one student. Some teachers used their personal time to prepare extra projects or to gather additional information for a class. In the classroom teachers were “the boss,” but at the football home- coming pep rally they were ‘‘the op- 8 acoso Time alone is essential to teachers such as 146 Faculty ponent.” No student would ac- knowledge even the possibility of being defeated by a teacher. This pep rally enabled students and teachers to spend time together out of the classroom and to develop more relaxed personal relationships. Understandably, teachers some- times gathered for some sort of ac- tivity without students present. Be- fore school began, the faculty spon- sored a retirement banquet for the Mrs. Susan Van Dyke. She spends this time to former librarian, Mrs. Nell Howard. The female faculty members were also responsible for a baby shower for Mrs. Marshall and her baby girl, Jessica. Whether they were in the class- room or out, teachers and students developed unique relationships. They worked together and separate- ly to promote education as well as fun. grade papers and prepare assignments.

The ship was without a captain for an indefinite period of time. The stu- dent body quickly learned that the faculty was quite capable of handling any problem that arose. Assistant principal Jamie Farley, along with Mr. Earl Bryant, athletic director, as- sumed control of the administative suite. Other faculty members contri- buted assistance wherever neces- sary. There were, of course, several bumpy days; but when Mr. Moore returned in late April, he was pleased to find everything in order. Both students and faculty were pleased to see Mr. Moore back on the job and looking so well. moment of peaceful lounging in the library. Faculty 149 Support makes the new school Support personnel, janitors and cooks along with the aides, are a central part of a student's day. With- out them there would be no meals anda dirty building. All too often the long hours of these people go unno- ticed. Only when something breaks down or something spills does the average student become aware of the need for these key people and then that student can be heard throughout every hall, ‘Where is the janitor? | need a janitor.” The office paged maintenance engineer Ted Campbell so often this year that an uninformed freshman remarked, “Boy, that guy must be awful. He’s in trouble with the office every day.” Completing one of his many jobs, Mr. Gerald Lyons empties the trash. Mr. Lyons has been with the school as a janitor for several years and does his job well. 150 Cooks, Aides, And Janitors The cooks take second place to no one. It is they who always serve that tasty meal with a smile and wash all those dirty dishes. The aides were also a very vital part of the school system. They helped both the teachers and the students in the Special Education de- partment and the library. They were often able to provide that extra indi- vidual attention that can mean so much to the student. We apologize that we were unable to capture the elusive Ted Campbell and several other aides on film but it is often difficult to corner such busy people. Cleaning the floor of the high school is no easy task, but Mr. Bill Meade finds it very satisfying to make the school nice and neat. The cafeteria staff: Front row: Mrs. Geraldine Rasnake, Mrs. Elma Holmes, and Mrs. Nancy Stoots. Second row: Mrs. Delphia O’Quinn, Mrs. Verna Smith, Mrs. Mary Hess, and Mrs. Maria Jessee. Aides in the Special Education department: Mrs. Rita Fleming, Mrs. Maila Lasley, Mrs. Terri Dishman, and Miss Linda Smith. These ladies make a difficult job look easy. Stacking the chairs in the cafeteria is just one — As an aide in the Special Education depart- of Mr. Robert Lewis’s jobs he must do every- ment, Mrs. Regina Hicks works with the stu- day. Mr. Lewis is the newest member of the dents on an individual basis. She is but one of maintenance staff. the many aides that work with the students to make them ready for the world ahead.

Colophon The 1985 Pioneer was primarily the responsi- bility of the Lebanon High School journalism class who also doubled as the yearbook staff. The book is printed by American Yearbook Company of Clarksville, Tennessee. The com- pany’s representative, working very closely with the staff, was Mr. Danny Boring. We wish to express our appreciation to this patient gen- tleman. The 350 copies of the 8%2’’ x 11”, 188 page ; 12 book were printed on gloss paper with the base 3 oy ] e ink color of black. The cover, designed by the ey staff at a Joston’s workshop, was silkscreened on white with red. The approximate cost of the book was $9038. | : Optima type in eight, ten, and thirty-two 7 point size was used in the copy, captions, and ] headlines. The divider page type was designed _ by our own Angie Ratliff. Column layout was varied in each section of the book. Endsheet specifications included a base color of white with applied red. Various shades of gray screening were used throughout the book; a brick wall was used on the divider pages and HARGIS ® several others as an aid to our theme Pioneer Graffitti. Mr. Elmer Phillippi of Delmar was the school photographer; however, many of the action shots were taken by our own staff or given to us FLO WERS by Mr. Jerry Lark, publisher of the Lebanon News. We wish to thank both Mr. Phillippi and Mr. Lark. This year several underclassmen, J.J. Harri- and son, Amy O’Bryan, Kerri Barrett, and Kelly Hammel, along with several juniors, took part in an evening apprentice yearbook class and were very helpful in finishing up the ad section of the book. GIFTS Mrs. Leta Bartee and Mrs. Sylvia Warner were our advisers. Box 37 Lebanon, VA 24266 889-2831 180 Advertisement Congratulations ‘Class of ’86”’ We Are Proud To Be A Part Of You!
