You can be yourself and move along at your own pace. 63 Middle School As we walk through Middle School doors, the thoughts that come to mind are joyous times we spend together sharing opinions and views, learning about ropes and canoes. As we walk through Middle School doors, the thoughts that come to mind are speaking with understanding teachers, communicating with other kids, investigating the new world ahead and hand in hand. As we walk through Middle School doors, we finally find our true friends and feelings. We will face the future together.

They didn’t know it was an impossible task when they set out to do it. After much hard work drawing layouts, cropping pictures, and writing copy the staff discovered the real slavedriver: the deadline A yearbook is put together liter- ally a few pages at a time with deadlines that must be met This year, having very few on our staff we found it very difficult meeting each one of those deadlines. The staff worked hard to produce this book and did their best in working with what they I sincerely hope we have reachec w al — that you have found yourself, your friends, and your activities well represented, and that in the future, perhaps another ten years from now, this book can help you remember the '79-'80 year at Loretto As editor, I would like to say to my staff members that it has been great working with each one of you and I appreciate your dedication in making the '79-'80 Man- della possible, but most of all my special thanks goes to one terrific individual. Shaun McMahon, without his advice and unceasing encouragement none of this could have been possible We wish to express our sincere gratitude to Mr and Mrs. Justus for their gener- ous assistance to the ’79-'80 Mandella had.

Maybe they know something the rest of us don't. The Imaginary Moliere’s 17th Century play was presented by the Upper School. All Moliere's plays reveal a rational sense of humor. His laughter is never malicious though; it is aimed at human foibles grown excessive to the point of being ridiculous. The upper school cast portrayed the ridiculous to perfection Invalid 11;- The Miracle Worker Works Its Miracle on Loretto The story of Helen Keller and her teacher Anne Sullivan has warmed the hearts of people all over the world. Growth and learning are sometimes painful experiences: pushing, pulling, testing limits, uncertainties becoming certain and certainties being questioned. Helen experienced the pain of growth and rejoiced in her success. Perhaps there is a little bit of Anne in all of us. 116 Once Upon a Clothes Line or Hung Up on Show Biz Imagine two lovesick clothes pins separated by an evil black spider! A real tear-jerker. One which can move an audience to most any- thing — especially — Laughter! The type of plot that makes Suspense! Tension! Drama! Pathos! Pity! A grasshopper and his young’uns, a cricket, Mrs. Ant and her son, and Dr. Beetle all come to the rescue to the delight of all, especially the Lower School young’uns. 118 119 120 J.V. Attitude Makes the Difference Volleyball in Action 121 TTO 122 HOURS OF PRACTICE UNIFIED JV TEAM Obviously, JV basketball did not have a winning season, although they came close in winning a couple of games. Teamwork and team spirit kept the team together making the game more fun. JV basketball team was extremely small and young, but hours of hard work made the game more interesting. 123 Boys Sports $ LORETTO FIRST BOY’S TEAM The first year ever to have a boy’s basketball team. The team started off with no coach. The boys had so much enthusiasm to play ball, but no one to stand behind them. Once the coach arrived things start to die, but those who played had the best time ever. Without any experi- ence made the game more diffi- cult to win. Better luck next year! 126 V a ' ■ f?

Both upper and middle boys started their own basketball team. Without their enthusiasm and spirits none of this would have existed. The boys were excited about being the first to start a team. They know to say, were going to represent Loretto’s winning team. Things didn’t quite work out that way, but they had a great time and year. Better luck next year guys! 130 Seniors Class Officers Christa Cavanaugh President Kathy Baldwin Secretary PROM QUEEN — JANET REDDING PROM KING — STEVE LEWIS 132 This year's prom was held at Crown Center, the Junior Class put on a successful dance April 11 th. Many came with dates, while other showed up with their friends. Everyone had a great time. Thanks Juniors! 133 Senior Banquet 134 Each year the Loretto upper school faculty shows their appreciation to the Senior Class by fixing them dinner and putting on a skit. This year the teachers decided to do something different, instead of putting on a skit. Each individual Senior received a present, as each one stood up aftd opened their gift, they had to explain why they got it and what teacher gave it to them. 135 Graduation 136 Graduation was held at Avila College, in Goppert Theatre on a beautiful Thursday night. (May 22nd) THE CLASS OF 1980 SENIORS COMPLETE GOALS AND FACE NEW RESPONSIBILITIES Well, here it was. It finally arrived. You were a big man on campus now — a SENIOR. To some being a senior just meant finally graduating, but to others it meant a real sense of accomplishment. Members of the class of '80 were special. The small class of 47 seniors students achieved success in many areas of school life: music, drama, art, sports and many more educational areas. Many held responsible jobs, or had enrolled in college courses while still seniors. There never was nor will there be another class like it. 137 Ronald Bruce Achelpohl Chris Avery Kathy Lynn Baldwin Vanessa Marie Bowser 138 Christa Ann Cavanaugh Rachel Sarah Cohen Constance Lynn Coyne Julia Conrad Crain JO Brain Patrick Flynn Kimberlea Michelle Doane Christopher B.

Mary certainly possesses ample qualifications. In her twelve years at Loretto she became an accomplished musician who plays four instruments; won the National School Orchestra Award for her long tenure with the Loretto Orchestra; was active in community govern- ment and school affairs; she was also a National Merit Finalist. Our best wishes and our love are with Mary MacNaughton always. 150 Boyle Meat 'Company Purveyors to Kansas City’s finest Dining Establishments Distributors of Boyle’s Famous Corned Beef SOLD THE Patronize our advertisers.
