Many teachers and administrators described them as goal-oriented and highly competitive, in fact, they were the most competitive class in many years. Each year, the class scored the highest of all four classes on tests of academic skills. Each year the class achieved a 98th or 99th percentile score on the Achievement and Proficien- cy Test. The students were very success-minded. The number of students who applied to private colleges and big name universities like LLC. Berkeley and Stanford demonstrated this drive for success. They had the most on-time, accurately prepared college applications the guidance staff had ever seen. As freshmen, one teacher noted that they had more ideas and goals concerning colleges and careers than most freshmen, and that they were very enthusiastic about work and extra projects. Athletically-minded students achieved high degrees of success, and many were eligible for athletic schorlarships. As with most groups, diverse interests appeared. While many students were self-disciplined and ambitious, some were more socially inclined, and some strove to help others by joining community service groups. One teacher commented that this class had the most unique personalities and another that they 'marched to the sound of their own drums.'
