Freshmen Learn Leadership Bradley Abrameit Jeffrey Alexander Maggie Allen Brenda Alvarez Louis Alvarez ' Hyper ' Personality Finds Natural Outlet Leading Her Class, Cheers A cheerleader, a sports fan, a freshman class vice-president, and a Science Club member. Four sep- arate people? No, just some of the activities of Jill Benbow. Cheerleading is a natural outlet for Jill ' s ' hyper ' personality.. As a first-year high school student and third-year cheerleader she says, I just watched my brother ' s girl- friends and I wanted to be like them. One thing Jill likes about cheer- leading is wearing the short mini-skirts, but, pep rallies are o.k., too. Her favorite part of cheerleading is going over to the visitors ' side to look for the cute guys. Trying to participate in cheer- leading and athletics may have an effect on her athletic abilities. She plays volleyball, basketball and track. They put me in athletics in seventh grade and I ' ve been there since, Jill said. I ' m not very good. I know every splinter on the bench. She is the Freshman Class Vice- President and a member of the Science Club which she likes be- cause we go places to gether and have fun doing the most absurd things like playing poker at mid- night in a school bus with no lights. After having participated in all her activities, Jill says her life has changed. I ' ve met a lot of new people and have gone to many dif- ferent places, she concluded.

Freshmen Wait Impatiently To Drive, Date Looking forward to high school for a ' long time ' , freshmen agreed get- ting to eat lunch off campus was the highlight of the year. Getting to drive around the block at lunch, if you could get a ride, made Briana Bolen happy. Wesley Haltom thought the food was better away from school and Matt Brown added, We get to go to different places and eat something new everyday. Another event anticipated by freshmen was driver ' s education. Roam Grantham Gary Gray Carolyn Green Gilbert Guerrero Melissa Guerrero Wesley Haltom Maybe the value of the coveted li- cense was enhanced by the fact the guys could drive around and see fine girls as Andrew Howard pointed out. Of course, the girls like Barbara Crislip looked forward to seeing good-looking guys. Several freshmen were excited about playing high school sports, es- pecially baseball. Wesley Haltom re- vealed he looked forward to playing baseball, football, other sports and finally the classes. Dating was not so much an expec tation as simply meeting new people ogling the opposite sex, and as Pa Edwards explained being aroun older kids who have interests simila: to our own. Longterm goals were indefinite many students but freshmen realize graduation requirements had to be met, lifelong friends were to be made, and it was never too early to start looking forward to the prom.
