There is nO way a person could not possibly take some chances. You take some calculated risks when you get out of the bed in the morning. On a really basic level after taking that first breath in the out- side world a person is taking some chances. No, let’s go back even farther. From the moment of conception a person starts taking chances. But, let’s get realistic. Every- one takes chances; however, the little chances should just be ignored because things such as living and breathing are universal chances. (If you do not believe in chance or luck, but you think that life is run by fate then you should either try to bear with me or just burn the whole book.) So let’s get on with this 2 Opening Double-vision. Would the real Mr. Moore please step forward as Steve Brandt impersonates Terry Moore on teacher dress up day.

Those chances that a person starts to take after he or she leaves the cozy, warm corner of their room, stops sucking their finger, and actually walks out of the front door of their house. Leaving the safety of the house and walking out the door is like rolling a die. It’s a crap shoot. Outside of the door is a road that connects in to other roads and contin- ues with forks, turns, side- tracks, and even stoplights. In a trite analogy that road outside your door could be compared to the road of life. Both are straight and smooth sometimes while at other times they are winding, hilly, and bumpy. On either road you'll have some decisions to make and some chances to take. Let’s face it ...

Also, students found that learning does not always take place in the classroom, and that often it can be a fun experience. Over 20 of the papers sub- mitted by science students placed in the annual VJAS competition, outclassing all other schools in the county, and four of the winners placed first. One of many accomplish- ments in the Math Depart- ment came at the VCU Math Contest. Two teams placed in the top 10, one in third, and the other in eighth.

The group also canoed, played golf, bowled, and took in some racquetball. In other news, a new pro- gram began this year in which Ms. Deborah Rizzo's 6th period class became pen pals with students at Hop- kins Elementary School. Cultural awareness was a focus of the Social Studies Department this year. They brought in Yayoi Kurita from Japan as a guest speaker. Black History Month and field trips to Washington D.C. were other happenings aimed at promoting cultural integration. English was in full swing as several students entered the Write Now Contest. Fea- tured were: Steve Goldsby (first in prose) and Kristen Miller (Honorable Mention for prose). The Young Author’s Con- test also had many entries. Dawn Ruhlen won first in the countywide contest for her short story. Special con- gratulations are extended to Becky Woodson for placing second in the state for her short story, Never Changing World. The Business Department a financial contributor to childhood cancer research. This endeavor, enttiled the ASK project, raised $1600. Several scholarships were awarded to business stu- dents as well. The $200 FBLA Award went to Shereen EI- nahal, while the Internation- al Management Council granted a $1000 scholarship to Marty Terrell. Home Economics fostered a varied classroom life with many guest speakers, includ- ing Rev. Chambers from Branch’s Baptist Church and a speaker from Johnson and Wales with a culinary dem- onstration, and another from Kings Dominion talked about job interviews. In other areas of interest, the Child Care students sim- ulated pre-school with 4 year-olds from the Wee Folks Nursery, as the Life Management Class helped with the spring musical by fabricating costumes.

R eport cards for tons of joy- ous students throughout Chesterfield County were blessed with an extra “+” as changes were made to the county grading policy. These changes were done supposedly to help alleviate the county's high dropout rate. But how did this really affect the students? Mr. Randy Rowlett stated, “it made students work less because it was a wimpy grading scale.” “| don’t think it got any easier or any harder because when the system changed, the way the teachers graded changed along with it,” explained freshman So- nya Simmons. Another student agreed that “‘it was just too easy to not fail, espe- cially when you've been used to the old scale.” Many students did seem to concur that the grading scale made life easier on them in some cases, but for the most part the teachers adjusted their systems enough to keep everything basi- cally the same.

Kristen Miller and Mike Anderson were chosen to attend the French Academy, Pam Lin for the Spanish Academy, Shannon Freeman for Asian Studies, with Mike Hafdelin as an alternate. As emphasis shifted to cul- tural understanding in for- eign language, the Media Center shifted to more stu- dio-like simulations. New equipment was added to set up a mini T.V. studio, used to Striving For Excellence undertake several projects, including newscasts for Mrs. MacKinnon’s 9th grade En- glish, Mrs. Prince’s French music videos, and Mrs. Amb’s class’ performance of their own Shakesperean sto- ry. Also, Media students put together their own video projects. For example Mike Acosta took a philosophical, reflective view of nature, while David Bustamante took a more down-to-earth approach as he scoped out teen cruise spots. In comparison to expres- sion by video and music, Drama students used their corporal expressiveness, in- teracting with many Hening Elementary students. They told stories, performed a puppet show, and even put make-up on the students’ faces. The Art Department par- ticipated in the Manchester Women’s Club Art Show in which Bonnie Massey was recognized as the Best in the Show.

Finally, the vo- cal ensemble group sang in several Richmond locations. Obviously, students also found that education can be enjoyable and have many benefits, if they strive to earn and to achieve them. Classroom Activities 11 File 13! While on the job, ICT stu- dent Kim Williams gets information ready for mailing. On the chain gang. Lail’s Mill work- er from the ICT, Nathan Marsh helps levy some heavy equipment with chains. hile a large majority of students spent their time taking tests, sit- ting in desks, and wondering how reading Shakespeare was ever going to help them in the real world, there was a group of students who left school early every day to jump right into the precari- ous world of work. Not only did these stu- dents get graded on their ef- forts, but they were also paid 12 Work Program handsome wages, and fur- thermore, they gained expe- rience in the practical world. These students were split into three different groups: the ICT (Industrial Coopera- tive Training), the IWE (In- dustrial Work Experience), and the Marketing Students. The ICT, headed by Ms. Gayle Babcock, involved thirty-two students who worked a total of 23,700 hours. Averaging $5.18 per hour, the ICT students col- lected a total of $134,285.17. Mrs. Babcock was really impressed with “the quality of work that these students do. They actually seem to enjoy their jobs, which | think help in making them better workers.” The Marketing program interacted eighty students working a total of 500-600 hours a week. These stu- dents, led by Mr. Harold One Step Ahead Work Program students earned valuable experience on the job. Saunders and Mrs. Donna Reamy, worked for $5-6 per hour and accumulated about $125,000. Mrs. Reamy liked the fact that “these students are giv- en the opportunity to learn something in school that is not only interesting, but that will help them as they pre- pare for their future in the work force.” Awards were given to Tra- cey Sink as the Outstanding Vogue!

Outside from their regular in school classes these three endeav- ored to make their occupations work and run smoothly. Despite the fact that it meant extra hours long past those of whom attend an unexceptional day of school, these Work Program students kept with their difficult schedule. Taking their chances with a dif- ficult and jam-packed lifestyle these three students in particular found the time to work efficient- ly, keep their grades meritable, and maybe even participate in some extracurricular activities.

It’s not like | worked all year ‘round just for this award, but it is nice to know that I’m appreciat- ed.” The Marketing program chose Tonya Taylor as its Student of the Year. She exclaimed her bewil- derment at having won this award, “It was kind of a shock be- cause | never thought that | was doing that well. | mean, | tried hard and everything, but I’m just surprised that they thought that | had offered the most to the pro- gram.

The twenty-five IWE stu- One Step Ahead (Cont'd) dents earned a total of about $80,000 for their hard work. “The best part of this pro- gram is that the students learn how to cope with the real world. As an added fea- ture, they also gain valuable work experience,’ ex- plained Mrs. Johnson con- cerning the benefits of the IWE and the Work Program as a whole. Obviously, the Work Pro- gram students learned in various ways that school can often become beneficial. For these students, learning proved helpful not only ina monetary way, but also in an educational way. Leaving at 11:30 in the morning did not seem to phaze these students; in fact, some students even liked it. Kevin Harris who worked at Midlothian Cinemas com- mented that “for the first time in a long time, | didn’t really mind getting up to go to school, because | knew that by mid-afternoon, | would be back on my job and making money.” Many of these students planned to continue their part-time jobs and make them full-time careers in the future. And because of the experience the students re- ceived, the program also helped to better prepare them for the tough, vicious competition they might soon face. The work program defi- nitely helped in placing these diligent students one step ahead of the rest, and one very well earned step.

SET OF THE WeRKNG- CLass Sones Yo LOVE HEAR re) OMY 144) WHISTLE WHILE YOU WORK Bust as some Tech students may go off to college, others have cho- sen to use their special talents and skills they have learned at the Tech Center in order to enter the working class. For as long as modern music has been around (and perhaps longer) several musicians have attempted to focus their interests on the working class. From the Beatles to Bruce Springsteen to Billy Joel, songs have been written to appeal to these special working people. For example, a female student who stands up all day in the Cos- metology or Nursing field might find that ‘‘She Works Hard for the Money.’’ And although she might enjoy her job, she may some day be pushed to the point where she would tell her boss to just “Take This Job and Shove It.” Most Tech students, however, would admit that they are ‘‘Working for the Weekend.’’ But when a student is Working for a Living in the Auto Mechanics course, and has had to Work that Body scrunching underneath cars, it’s reasonable that he’d only wish for Saturday to roll around. A Plumbing student may just be Taking Care of Business but he may have to start Working Over- time when the pipe explodes. And an Air Conditioning student may find himself whistling The Finest Worksong while he adjusts controls. It’s apparent that most Tech students can claim that It’s Beena Hard Day’s Night because their diligence easily shows. Further- more, it is very obvious that Tech students can readily associate themselves with some type of song, since so many of them are written to praise their hard labor. Always watching the T.V.

There, by taking courses in electronics, horticulture, plumbing, nursing, and many other technical fields, the students prepared them- selves for their future ca- reers and took steps towards employment. Robert Martin, a plumbing student at the Tech Center, felt that the CTL program was preparing him for the job market by offering him a “wide variety of specialties to learn.” This proved to be a common theme among Technica these students attending Tech. Brenda Jarvis, a cosmeto- logy student, liked the Tech program because she didn’t “have to pay to go on to a private school.’’ However, it was Richard Bell who crystal- ized the main reason for at- tending Tech, “to find a job in my chosen area.” Those who have chosen heels are tur am.

Well, here’s our cue. Good luck everybody. Let’s go!” This fall, several budding thespians tried-out for a new production, ‘Ten Little Indi- ans’’, an Agatha Christie murder mystery. The direc- tor, Mrs. Priscilla Bareford, had to make several tough decisions, mostly because she wanted to give the vet- erans an appropriate role, while also introducing new students to the world of the- atrics. After several hours of deliberating, Mrs. Bareford returned with the news — good for some, bad for oth- ers. Make yourself at home. Anthony Marston (Matt Louth) becomes comfortably numb as he dies from cyanide poisoning. ‘Come here my little pretty!’’ Ms. Hannigan (Tra- cey Woody) prepares to scold Annie (Mary Clanton) while the other orphans (A. Bozarth, D. Crank, A. Joyce, K. Carr, S. Mance, K. Armstrong) eavesdrop. Blair Maury, who played his first serious role in four years said the following con- cerning the problems the play faced, “This was our first non-comical play and we weren’t sure how the audi- ence would react, and if they would take me seriously.” But after two hours and elev- en staged murders later, the audience response was evi- dent as both nights ended with standing ovations for the first time in history. Neil Desai, who played a doctor for the third time ex- plained, “I think we interact- ed better with each other than ever before. Take Tina Collins for example. In the third act when she scream s with fear at three of us on stage about the murders, she sent chills down my back ev- ery time, even during a full month at practice. | also think the special effects with the blood, knives, and gun shots helped alot.” Although the spring musi- cal did not have much blood and gore, “Annie” proved to be a success. In fact, both Friday and Saturday nights were completely sold out with standing room only, once again for the first time ever. A tearful Bareford ex- pressed here emotions to the cast before the play opened, ‘All my life, ever since I’ve been a little girl, all I’ve ever dreamed of was a packed house, and tonight, you have made that come true!” Tryouts for “Annie” began in late February with about sixty students nervously practicing singing ‘’Tomor- row.” A major problem this year was finding male students who could sing well, a prob- lem that was tackled by Dan- iel Ellis who was forced to wear a bald wig. Many people seemed im- pressed with Daniel’s perfor- mance. “I’ve known Daniel for many years now, and that person on stage was defi- nitely not him; he had be- come Daddy Warbucks!” Another lead was por- trayed by Mary Clanton, who played the title charac- Seven maids-a-milking?

Angela Howell prepares to watch the award-winning musical produc- tion “Cats” on Broadway. Unpeeling The Big Apple Atte: over one year of Mr. Binns’ careful planning, about 60 drama and music students, faculty, and parents trekked up to New York -City this spring in order to better understand the theatrical and musical world, and what bet- ter way than the home of Broad- way? As soon as arriving in the Big Apple, they witnessed a superb view of the city from atop the World Trade Center, and then they received a grand tour of Manhattan. Upon awakening the next day, the group took a ferry to the Stat- ue of Liberty. “Just seeing the stat- ue gave me chills. It made me proud to be an American. There’s nothing like it in the world!” ex- claimed sophomore Safya Mance. Later that afternoon, they visit- ed the world famous Lincoln Cen- ter for the Performing Arts, sitting in some of the most reknowned theatres in the world. Then it was off to Broadway to experience the musical ‘Cats.’’ Sunday shopping in Rockefeller Center was interrupted several times for a tour of NBC Studios and Radio City Music Hall. Marty Terrell, a senior, explained, “To Drama 19 Murderous intentions. Plotting his next move, Judge Wargrave (Blair Maury) ap- pears pensive. Well?

She said that, “I was really shocked that | got the role, but after it was ‘over, | knew that | would never forget the experience because | have always dreamed of having a lead ina show.” | Another major problem that the cast faced was learn- ing not only how to sing all of the musical numbers but how to perform them as well. Several songs actually required the combined ef-— forts of over thirty cast members on stage at once doing synchronized mo- tions. Chorus member Tina Seay explained that although the play was a lot of hard work, it’s also a lot of fun. ‘When we are pushed it’s for the best.” In fact these full-time stu- dents became part-time ac- tors by spending 2-4 hours every day after school for two months preparing the musical for no apparent per- sonal benefit, other than ap- plause and self-satisfaction. Scott O’Con, the shows’ From Agatha to “Annie” (Con’'d.) assistant director, stated that “the friends you make and the family you become makes it all worth it.” Tracey Woody as Miss Hannigan and Don Blanton as Rooster provided comic relief, along with the seven adorable Orphans. Tracey explained that she felt “closer to the Orphans than anyone else I’ve ever been on stage with because | had to interact with them constantly. | could also see in them the qualities that | know exist in the older, vet- A tender moment.

Over twenty of these ac- tors were seniors and many were four-year veterans. For them, the end of “Annie” was another reminder of the closing of the year and of high school as well. For the rest, it was a time to relax and to prepare themselves for the upcom- ing production next fall.

In order to receive a degree, they must have passed three courses in one language or two courses in two languages. And while it may seem like torture at times, foreign lan- guages can often be fun, and useful. A telephone conver- sation meant to be kept a se- cret from parents can be spoken in a foriegn language which most parents have forgotten long ago. Another time when lan- guages can be fun is during Foreign Language Week. Mrs. Chris Wilson, a Spanish teacher, describes the week as ‘a time for students to put down the books, set aside Foreign Foreign languages celebrated a ground-breaking year memorization, and actually use and experience the lan- guages they have studied.” Mrs. Linda Davidson feels students should actually live in a country which allows them to use the language for six months. Several students have participated in the Governor’s Academics which allows the student to live in a foreign environment for one full month. Heidi Hanser, who went to the French Academy ex- plained that ‘‘any experience requiring you to speak a for- eign language twenty-four hours a day tends to make you a better student.” The Foreign Language De- Flourish partment was also blessed with more Foreign Exchange Students, a program that Mrs. Sumner says “seems to be expanding year after year.” Language studies expand- ed to fifth grade and kinder- garten classes this year as fourth and fifth year lan- guage students went to ele- mentary schools to teach the language. Obviously then, the For- eign Language program has achieved great success in proving to students that lan- guages are not necessarily a waste of time, but that they can often be enjoyable. ep this way.

A Visit From the far East | Fe struck its biggest blow to our educational system in the form of a tiny, cheerful, young lady from Tokyo named Miss Yayoi Kurita. She may have been small in stature, but she may have made the “biggest impression on the Foreign Language Department in recent years,” said de- partment head, Mrs. Linda Davidson. Miss Kurita had studied English ex- tensively in Japan. While she could write up a storm, the Japanese method of language teaching did not permit her to become fluent in speaking En- glish. Nevertheless, just like any person who is immersed in a foreign environ- ment, she picked up the language quickly and was soon able to teach stu- dents Japanese. She taught three classes after school as credit for Honors Seminars in areas Costume party. Miss Yayoi Kurita addresses the faculty upon her arrival in her native kimono. involving Japanese language, culture, writing, and dancing. Katy Steger, one of Ms. Kurita’s students, seemed genu- inely impressed with her ‘frankness and openness. Of all of the Japanese I’ve met, Yayoi seemed the most willing to explore the differences in the two cultures and not merely point them out. ” Miss Kurita also taught adult classes at Monacan concerning Japanese cul- ture. Local elementary school classes received similar lessons. Yayoi took in all the American cul- ture she could as well. She visited such places as Connecticut and New York City and sat in on English, Art, Music, and PE classes. Miss Kurita also participated in For- eign Language Week by teaching origa- mi, the ancient art of paper folding, and by sitting on the panel on Guest Speak- er Day. Obviously, then Miss Kurita, by teaching Japanese, by getting herself involved in extracurricular activites, and by trying her utmost to absorb as much as she could of American culture, she has helped the students and faculty in experiencing Yayoi, and therefore indirectly, Japan. On her last day at the school, Miss Kurita, who had lived much of her life with stoic emotions, broke down at a farewell party by saying, “I will never forget everything you have done for me. There is nothing | could say that could express my thanks to all of you, but thank you very much.” No, Miss Kurita, thank you. You put your left hand in ...

A Trying Effort 1, order to promote the visual arts in the school or community and provide an extension of the art program outside the class- room, the National Honors Art Society (NAHS) was formed. The only requirements needed for becoming a member included having a ‘B’ average in art and a determination to give up much time. Where did the honor part come in? Well, the members were sup- posed to have been “honored” to beautify the community, but as Mr. Butler sadly put it, “The only honor seems to have been to pay their dues and be able to say they are members for their college transcript.” Needless to say, the society is now defunct, but before disband- ing they did help in creating a new effect in the form of a mural outside the Library, painting a pond cross-section.

Uninhibited Creativity Art students let their talent flow from their heads to their adept hands. any students find them- Mfsetes sitting in a desk sometime during the most boring lecture of their lives, and instead of taking notes like they’re supposed to, they pull out a scratch sheet of paper and begin to doodle. Whether they realize it or not, or whether their neigh- bor can recognize it or not, that is known as ART. When most people think of art, names like Michelan- gelo and Leonardo DaVinci come to mind, but art is more than just famous names and beautiful paint- ings. Some students find that when they doodle, people look and stare and say, “‘Ooh, “that s good! You should be an artist.” You know the ones, the ones that can whip out a car- icature of your most hated teacher and send chills down your spine because of its stark reality. It’s students like this that waltzed in day after day into room 301 and created mini- masterpieces. One such artist, Paul Quinn has won numerous awards because of his innate talent. He says that “it sur- prises me how | create some of the things | do. | mean, | guess it’s just something that comes naturally to me, and | just don’t understand why.” In fact good art is some- thing that more or less must be an inborn trait, or else we'd all be spewing forth masterpieces of splattered paint. Which brings notice to an- other point. Art is more than just paints; there are numer- ous types of art: sculpture, architecture, photography, videography, music, theatre, and countless others. “Art is what you want it to be,” philosophied art stu- dent Jennifer Beasley, “that’s what makes it so great, you can do what ever you want; you can be creative.” Scott O’Con, another of Butler’s students said that it’s all about ‘creativity. | like the freedom of expression I’m allowed. There are no boundaries | can’t cross — if | really want to. Art gives me an opportunity to create ina way that | don’t normally act. It’s always easier to do some- thing crazy on paper than to act It out.” Nevertheless, the world would be much less exciting without art: no T.V., no ra- dio, no graffiti, no maga- zines, etc. Although the vast majority of us can’t help but be a bit envious of these tal- ented artists, we must also admit that we couldn't live without them. tg place� Paynevadds color rant.

Each of their faces had an anxious look, however, and each asked the same question: ‘Will | be the One?” Such was the scene at the 1989 Miss Meadow- brook Pageant, held on April 28 in the auditori- um. The twelve young women chosen by their peers to compete for the title of Miss Meadow- brook were: seniors Mary Clanton, Allison Bo- zarth, Stephanie Cole, Beth Martin, Tracey Woody, and Tonya Taylor; juniors Melanie Riepma, Terri Minnicks, Mary Poland, and Angela Howell; and sophomores Kristine Sims and Ni- chole Goode. It all started about two hours before the pag- eant actually began, with last-minute talent ad- justments and the careful preening and perfect- ing that goes with preparing for the pageant. Their dress es were in every color of the rainbow, and their handsome escorts were decked out in tuxedoes sponsored by Gingiss Formal Wear. Then the night became a whirl as the ladies were introduced, and relayed their activities and future eB (hi Ue One -s. pei if ; Pet) : S c at. 5N) ae _ 4 ee A Chorus Line. Nominated by peers and chosen through an election process, the twelve Miss Meadowbrook contes- tants were carefully selected for their beauty and talent. Briefed about their re- sponsibilities in early April, they had some setbacks and the pageant was scheduled for April 28. With a building sense of anxiety, the week of the pageant was marked by nightly practices that fi- nally paid off on Friday evening. The con- testants were Angela Howell, Kristine Sims, Allison Bozarth, Terri Minnicks, Mary Clanton, Mary Poland, Melanie Riepma, Nichole Goode, Beth Martin, Stephanie Cole, Tracey Woody, and Tonya Taylor. 30 Miss Meadowbrook Ow We plans to the attentive audience. All involved in a wide gamut of activities, they also indicated that they plan on attending college after completing high school. Afterwards, the talent competition began, and what a show it was! Acts included a mime show, a slide show accompanied by guitar, and a narrative set to music. The conclusion of the talent competition brought all of the ladies back on stage, where James Banks sang a special song to each of them. Then the six finalists were an- nounced: Mary Clanton, Stephanie Cole, Mary Poland, Melanie Ripema, Kristine Sims, and Tonya Taylor. Each was asked more questions, such as how they were able to manage their time effec- tively between activities, as well as who had influ- enced them most in their life. The responses were varied, and allowed the audience to get to know the ladies a little better. After the questioning ended, it was time for the decision. As the judges deliberated, Miss Meadowbrook 1988, Christina Collins, gave her farewell address and a summary of her reign as Miss Meadowbrook. All of the ladies swept onto the stage accompanied by their escorts for the final moment. The tension was almost unbearable as they waited for the judges’ decision. Miss Congeniality, who was chosen by the ladies, was Mary Clanton. Melanie Riepma was Tears of Joy. After winning First Run- ner-Up, Melanie Riepma sheds a tear as her mother wipes it away. When asked who is her greatest influence, Melanie said, ‘‘Definitely my mom. I looked down on her (in the audience) and she was just smiling really big, and that meant a lot to me.’’ Walk this way. After revealing her fu- ture plans, Mary Clanton strolls down the runway. She commented ‘‘Being Chosen Miss Congeniality was especially important to me because I tried to be helpful and friendly throughout our practices. I felt honored to receive that recognition from my peers.’’ given the title of First Runner Up, and there was just one title left. Everyone drew in a nervous breath, which changed to joy as Stephanie Cole was crowned Miss Meadowbrook 1989. The house erupted into applause as she walked down the aisle, glittering crown atop her head, knowing that she was ‘The One!” The ladies who participated in the pageant each had their own opinions about winning and what winning the pageant would mean to them. For most, winning would mean representing the school, their friends, and their family. All believed that each girl had an equal chance of winning, and predicting a winner was almost impossible. One of the girls stated that “ ... the girl who wins will be the one who most truly expresses herself as she is.” When asked about strategies for winning, It’s my lucky day!

They had chosen their talent performances based on what they en- joyed doing, but some did express a little bit of nervous fear. However, there was no doubt in anyone’s mind about these ladies’ abilities as they stepped onto the stage and performed beautifully for friends, family, and most importantly, the class members that had voted for them. These people were the ones that the ladies said influenced them the most to compete in the pageant. At the close of this magical night, there were smiles a nd tears as these young women returned to the rigors of daily life. They now knew that each of them was special in her own way, and even though only one was chosen to be Miss Meadowbrook, they were all winners in our eyes. Miss Meadowbrook 31 HOMECOMING Two Times Despite all of the mishaps caused The by inclement weather Homecoming occurred amidst the havoc and hoopla of a traditional event turned un-traditional. Tradition! Who said it’s the only way to do things prop- erly? Homecoming ‘88 proved that old ways could blend with new ways. AIl- though Homecoming was an annual occurrence, taking place at the same time, with the same order of events, each Homecoming had its own uniqueness. Home- coming ‘88 was no different. In fact, it took a most unusual turn: IT HAPPENED TWICE! The week began with the Keyettes selling spirit links in all lunches, and the S.C.A. sponsoring Spirit Week. On Monday, Dress-up Day kicked off the week with a formal start. Tuesday was T- Shirt Day, followed by Class Looking sharp! After many months of fundraising and hard work, the band was finally able to finance their new uniforms which they proudly displayed at the Homecoming game. 32 Homecoming Colors Day on Wednesday. Thursday was Mourning Day, as hopes rose for a vic- tory over Colonial Heights. Finally the big day arrived. On Friday, students and fac- ulty wore old gold and navy blue to show their school spirit. Suddenly out of nowhere, an unexpected twist, changed the course of events. A black cloud cov- ered most of Chesterfield, leaving behind wet roads and a very soggy football field. The rain dampened the festive pep rally planned in the gym and left a ques- tion in everyone’s minds about the game. The class of 1989 was crowned winners Fun! of Spirit Week and winner of the Keyettes spirit link con- test. A victorious game over Colonial Heights was played Saturday and the Homecom- ing activities were post- poned until the next game against Thomas Dale. Even though it was two weeks later, morale was still high for making District play-offs. The seniors, soph- omores and freshmen worked hard on setting up floats to parade along with the Homecoming Court. The Class of ‘91 won first place in the float contest and the sophomores were awarded twenty-five dollars for their hard work. Spirit board competition was stiff, First Efforts!

Senior princess Tonya Taylor was an- nounced Maid-of-Honor. As everyone held their breath, the queen was announced. The 1988 Homecoming Queen was senior princess Gretchen Gi- Fun (Cont’d vens.

Unfortunately, their hard work did not pay off as the Monarchs fell 21-6 to the Knights. Hopes for postseason play would depend on the Hopewell-Byrd game.

And it doesn’t end there: they read, watch, collect anything with cartoon charac- ters. Who do students like to watch on Saturday mornings? The most popular current cartoon character of students surveyed was Garfield (22% of the votes), with Opus from Bloom County close behind (19%). Other answers ranged from Ducktails and G.I. Joe to the Jetsons and Bill the Cat. Despite the popularity of Saturday cartoons, many students held fond memories of the cartoons of their childhood, stating cartoons of today are too.violent or too commercial. In a battle of the comics, students were asked to decide between which comics they preferred out of a choice of two. Garfield beat Bill the Cat with 78% of the votes, Bugs Bunny creamed Roger Rabbit with a whopping 65%, Calvin and Hobbes with only 22% lost to Opus, holding 78%, and Mickey Mouse proved to be stronger than Mighty Mouse among Monarchs, gain- ing 63% of the votes. Three matches were hotly contested: Chip’n Dale scraping by Rocky (from Bullwinkle) with 56% of the votes, Donald Duck just barely passed Daffy with 52% and Scooby Doo knocked Snoopy out of the top spot with 53% of the votes.

Hmm, let’s see ... food (food) n. 1. any nourishing substance eaten or other- wise taken into the body to sustain life, promote growth, etc. Yeah, yeah, that’s according to Mr. Webster, but what do WE think about food and our eating habits? For instance, when asked if eating habits had changed due to the re- cent awareness of choles- terol and health foods, 66% responded no, while 34% said yes. How many balanced meals were eat- en a day? 36% of the re- sponses were for once a day, 32% for twice a day, and 16% for no balanced meals a day.

Even in your school library, there is censorship. There is a county wide ‘‘materials selection policy” giving vague specifications of what can and cannot be in the school library. In re- cent Supreme Court cases, censorship has been legalized when deal- ing with high school newspapers, magazines, etcetera. And then of late, there has been an uproar matter how much sleep they get, the other 33% claim to never get enough. Therefore, they have to resort to one of the three common remedies: holding out until the 1:40 bell, deep meditation on the blackboard or teacher’s forehead, or the always dangerous “sleep in class’. 76% of the student body opts for the latter choice. He who does risks waking up with funny things in his ears, having messages taped to his back, or losing an eyebrow. To make matters worse, 7% of the stu- dents sleep walk, 24% snore, and a wopping 43% sleep talk. Some people who get 7 hours of sleep a day claim to be able to go only 14 hours without sleep. Sounds like graduates of Mr. Burns’ class. When there is a need to stay awake, and there is a lack of natural stimuli, 39% of the students count on artificial means to stay awake (i.e. cola, coffee, no-doze) while 61% tough it out.

Other Sleep Talk Snore Sleep Walk % of Students A teenage girl dressed in a pep- permint striped uniform pushes a cart full of maga- zines and reading material for sick patients at a local hospital. Being a candy striper is just one example of how local students help out in their community. One student said, “In ad- dition to church volun- teer work students aid hospitals through ser- vices.” One faithfully de- voted servant who was surveyed remarked, ‘She helped out at a local hos- pitals mainly as a candy striper during the summer months.” Other students donated many hours to collecting funds for such organiza- tions as Muscular Dis- trophy and various heart funds. 24% A Breakdown Of Students’ Volunteer Work One student remarked that volunteer work is very time consuming, and as a result of their busy lifestyle they are unable to contribute time to these organizations. However, they realize the impor- tance of volunteer work to a community. Some students went on to tell that there were many volunteer programs like volunteer fire fight- ers, rescue squads, help- ing the homeless and the elderly that were greatly beneficial. Along with the importance of volunteer work to the community it gives a sense of satisfac- tion to the person who volunteers. 65% At your beck and call.

Q:. of the most frightening things to come out of the 80’s is the disease AIDS, which, first considered an isolated problem for homosexuals and drug users, has of late been recognized as a na- tional problem. People have started to realize that AIDS does not discrimi- nate — heterosexuals and non-drug users have been infected as well. Several students were asked what they thought of the disease. Forty seven percent of those surveyed felt that they knew all that they needed to know about AIDS. Only 17% of Monarchs felt that fear of AIDS had affect ed their dating and social life. On the whole, students feel that casual contact with an infected person is safe, for 75% said that they would continue as- sociating with a friend that has AIDS. As one stu- dent stated, ‘I judge peo- ple for who they are, not what they have.” Another student agreed, adding, “If | was in that position | wouldn’t want people ig- noring me.” However, 33% of MBK students surveyed be- lieved AIDS victims should be quarantined.

Looking out of the many windows there was an array of awaiting limousines. Limousines were a popular mode of transportation.

For the girls, one of the most difficult parts of prom is finding a dress. It takes weeks or even months of te- dious, non-ceasing walking around malls or bridal shops. “I never thought I was going to find a dress | truly liked — but | hated to settle for a dress just because | didn’t feel like work- ing anymore,’’ com- mented one junior.

We all face them every- Jay. The students in the SODA, or Students Organized to Develop Attitudes, encountered dilemmas on two dif- ‘erent levels. Each group adopted a fifth grade class for a year. The groups be- came quite close to their class. This rapport came in part from the Dositive message con- veyed by the SODA students. Practicing what one preaches is an impor- tant part of the SODA creed. To be an effec- tive SODA person one must live up to the high standards of SODA. Meadowbrook’s SODA program al- lowed students, both of elementary and high school, to learn about themselves and each other.

The group has evolved through a combination of the ideas of mem- bers and has set a pre- cedent to the meaning of Peer Facilitators at Meadowbrook. The group has tremendous freedom to do what they can for the stu- dent body. Ms. Peter- son worked with the club and ‘‘Cool Beans’’ was the famous slogan giving the club the ““O.K. ’ for unique ideas.

Through the tri- als and errors, the group has learned more about themselves and about each other. As a result, they felt confident that they had what it takes to fulfill the role of peer facilita- tors: Experience. 77 he Har- ambe Club was devoted to pro- moting the spirit of brotherhood and har- mony among the Mea- dowbrook student body.

A major goal of the club was to foster an understanding and ap- preciation of various ethnic groups and na- tionalities.

This project may not have been as successful as it had in past years, but it did provide some help for the needy. Also, chief responsi- bility of the SCA is su- pervising the festivities of the Homecoming game. The Christmas season put the SCA to work again on the Stocking Stuffer Drive for the re- tarded children at O.B. Gates Elementary. Spring arrived shortly after, and plans for the Miss Meadowbrook Pageant had to be made. Towards the end of the year, the SCA was responsible for holding elections to fill its of- fices for the following year.

The hours paid off as the Varsity squad came home from UVA with a trophy and many ribbons. “It was hard work, but when we won the dance routine competition it was all worth it,” commented Junior Julie Porter. The football season finally began and along with the help of the guys, spirit was literally raised in the crowds. The Varsity cheerleaders performed new stunts harder than the year before and with greater visual effect. Their home- coming festivities were rained out but on the following day the squad cheered their football team to deliver a crushing defeat to Colonial Heights.

For the first time both the boys and girls bas- ketball seasons were combined. This was especially hard on the girls because instead of cheering two nights a week they cheered up to four nights a week. After the season ended the cheer- leaders realized how much of a family they had become. These emotions came through when tryouts for the new squad were held. The cheerlead- ers didn’t seem to want to let go. Cap- tain Mary Clanton expressed her feel- ings as she reminisced about the past, “’I can’t believe it is over. It’s hard to let go of something that has been so impor- tant to me for four years. All those great memories; camp, practices, games, Mrs. Rusher, and especially the friendships that were built.” Juxtaposed with laughter. Mary, Tina, Mary, and Shandra have a good one.

Tension was slowly mounting in the air as the small stadium filled with anxious spectators. This night would go down as one of the biggest games of the season. Tonight the visiting opponent was the unde- feated Colonial Heights. As the kick-off approached, the question on the mind of most fans was whether the Colonial Heights winning streak would last. As the game progressed the so far unbeatable Colonials were struck by blow after blow from the mighty Mon- archs. So ferocious was the Monarch onslaught that the Colonials could nev- er recover.

This high level of excellence lead to a tieing of last year’s winning record and also to the recognition of many individual players. Dion Foxx was quoted as saying, “It was the hard work of the team as a whole that lead to our SUCCESS. This team spirit shined through when the football team ran onto the field. However, a shocking blow was struck upon them in the last game against Thomas Dale dashing the Monarchs’ hopes of going to district playoffs. Although ending on a low note, the season as a whole was a success. This is well summed up by junior Chris Keeter, ‘‘We accomplished a lot throughout the year.

The football players be- gan their summer practice on August the tenth training from six am to twelve pm, five to six days a week. The junior varsity football squad gave all they had training for the season. And it was worth it, to win their games. “When we won, it was in the game’s end. But when we lost, we lost the whole game through,” is how Ben Smith, a tight end and de- fensive end, summed up the season junior varsity’s season. Either the team would lose from the get-go or they would win a close game in the final minutes of the game. Mak- ing for a very exciting season for the fans, and a long, hard season of struggling for points on the football field for the players. The fact that players had to play offense and defense shows how hard these young men tried for this football team. It also shows that the team didn’t have as many players as they would have liked. The monarchs were relatively small compared to the junior varsity teams they played. Even with having so many things going against them the player still man- aged to come through with a winning season. If the same players go out next year with their experience who knows what damage they could do. Let’s hope we can do even better next year in junior varsity football. GO MON- ARCHS!!!

After the second game of the season, about fifteen more girls came out for the team, which was a tremendous en- couragement.

In con- trast, however, Lonni Dixon comment- ed, “This is my last year, so I’m giving it my all and enjoying every minute of it. It’s the best we’ve played in four years.” An amusing part of the daily routine at field hockey practice was the ritual of singing ‘Rebel Rebel’ by David Bowie or “Don’t You Want Me” by the Hu- man League. The girls would sing along and play the guitar on their sticks for a half an hour until coach Ritter came. Then, “We played serious hockey,” says Lonni Dixon.

Sonya Simmons explained, “It was an experience | will never forget. It wouldn’t have been the same without Cristi and it won’t be next year.” Not only did the twelve-membered Monarettes dance like they’ve never danced before, but they worked dili- gently to raise funds for the squad through car washes and bake sales.

Both teams gave their all to their sea- son. From this there was much growth in ability as well as friendship. Though their seasons had very different out- comes, they both reached for the top and went to their limits and beyond. After Cross Country had ended Sean Stewart summed up their season by saying, ‘‘We may not look the best by our record, but we fought all the way.” The track team also did their best and earned their title and created a strong unity. Craig Taylor commented, “We knew what we had to do at the begin- ning of the season and we did it.” Front Row: Tara Leadbitter, Suzi Newell, Robin Spencer, Carla Mil- stead, Adrienne Thorton, Mai Mue- dra.

But more than any- thing it requires teamwork, and what the varsity girls basketball team lacked in skill and height they made up for in teamwork. This years team had a conti- nuity which few teams could top. Per- haps it was because there were so many seniors on the team, or because the girls had been playing together for years. Whatever the reason, the team rose to heights which had not been reached in years. Senior Gretchen Gi- vens described the season as ‘almost like a family. We grew together at the end.” The team did finish up strong by reaching the second round of the tour- nament before losing to the eventual champion Petersburg. There were ob- stacles to overcome along the way such as pre-season injury to Gretchen Gi- vens, and a lack of dominating height. But behind the leadership of MVP guard Karen Raikes the Lady Monarchs took the odds and turned them around. Pam Holtz, Vicky Gentry, and Raikes proved outstanding on the pe- rimeter, while Fetnah Green, Lisa Baird, and Givens fought the tough battles under the boards. All in all the season was a success with the team advancing further than it had in recent years. This was especially nice for the graduating seniors. Karen Raikes summed it up best when she said, ‘The high point of the season was playing Petersburg in the tournament. Just knowing we had finally gotten that far, and were playing that well as a team, helped end the season on a high note.” Girls Varsity Basketball Front row: Vicky Gentry, Anne Wittenbraker, Gretchen Givens (tri-capt), Karen Raikes Tri-capt), Pam Holtz, (tri- capt), Back row: Okesha Young, Lisa Baird, Fetnah Green, Marchelle Payne, Teresa Satterfield, Coach Dave Cathers.

Coach Mike Sutton’s goals were to return to the Regional Tournament with virtually an entirely new squad. Four players returned from ast year. So new players had to mesh nto the mainstream. They also had to maintain the level of play the strong Central District was accustomed to. They improved greatly over the season out they lacked the consistency it took. | “The team was a little slow to take off, but when it happened we played s0me very good ball,’’ said Dion Foxx, of his teamates. Dion, the teams leading scorer and rebounder made the sec- ond team All District. Kelvin Oliver led the team in assists and proved to be “one of the better point guards in the district,” said Sutton.

The high points of the season in the eyes of the players were defeating State Runner-Up Petersburg in January, and winning the opening game of the Dis- trict Tourney against a highly rated Manchester team in their gym, in over- time. Kelvin quotes, “The win over Manchester and Petersburg were some good times for us considering the be- ginning of the season.” “The best game of the year for me was the win over Manchester. We lost twice to them in the regular season so we had to rise to the occasion and we did,” said Scott. All in all it was a learning season.

In a game against Manchester, the girls be- gan with a bang and never let up. Games such as that one, along with cer- tain incidents such as ever popular bus rides and the never forgotten mishaps during the games, made parts of the season unforgettable.

The word oppor- tunity again filled the air as the gym was abuzz with excitement. The meet came down to the last match, a pin zenith of the season. Through consis- tent wrestling and a successful wrestle back the team managed a second place finish. The team placed four wrestlers in the finals, and managed to send nine wrestlers to the regional tournament, and eventually sent Sean Swineford to the State tournament.

The team had an optimistic outlook on the season from the start, as they knew they had the makings of Dis- trict Champs. Their overall talent was indicated by the 11-0 victory over Hen- rico, the team’s first game, and a 1-0 win over Manchester, the pre-season favorite in the district. However, these high hopes were almost disintegrated with back-to-back losses against Midlo- thian and Powhatan. These were very demoralizing losses and it took a lot of mental reconstruction at practice to re- build the team’s sense of pride that had It’s dude been ripped apart by the Powhatan loss. In the following competition against Petersburg, the players rallied to shut out the Crimson Wave by a 3-0 score. This game set the pace which led to other victories on the way to a show- down against Colonial Heights for the District Championship. The Monarchs’ 2-1 win clenched the crown and quali- fied them for Regional play. Yet their regional advancement came to a sud- den halt after four overtimes and a kick-off that ended in a tie. The next step was sudden death penalty shots, and with the miss of one penalty shot the Soccer Team was eliminated from Regional play.

As the coach put it, ‘The team’s attitude was always on the up!” The sixteen-member team consisted of seven freshmen, three sophomores, only two returning players, and two foreign exchange students, Anita Erik- son and Magdelena Meudra. Accord- ing to Lonni Dixon, ‘Everyone knew the season was going to be a learning one and didn’t expect to win many games, but spirits were never down.” At the season’s start, six games were rained out along with many afternoon practices. In one rescheduled tourna- ment game, only eleven girls were able to make it, but each played their as- signed position to the end and held . ponent 114 J.V.

There were many “unknowns” about the team, so it was almost a trial and error situation which improved after various changes in positions. High and low points existed throughout the sea- son, especially near season’s end. The loss against Manchester High was a def- inite low, while the final win against L.C. Bird was the uplifting swan song for the '89 season. The hopes of the Boy’s J.V. Soccer team were high. One expectation was to win, and win BIG!

Team enthusiasm was high at the outset, but fell slightly as the season progressed. But winning and hard work bolstered spirits to their desired level. As a result, the J.V. team experienced its first winning season. Individuals making special contributions to the team’s excellence were: Coach Rizzo for pushing the guys to new heights; Goalie David Legge, who made many game-winning saves; Bryan Ozlin, the defensive “chief’’ who brought the de- fense together; and Mon Mith, the team’s leading scorer.

Baseball season. And learn they did. With an open- ing day loss to Monacan 3-2, the team realized the importance of concentra- tion and working hard. The season was filled with ups and downs as the boys battled their way to a record of 8-9 overall. High points were games such as home against Petersburg when the Monarchs stunned the Wave 13-0, only to fall 14-4 to Dinwiddie games later. Behind the play of sophomore Brian Keyser the team found themselves struggling in a district full of tough competition. But despite an average season in the win-loss department, the Monarchs grew a great deal both physi- cally and mentally as ball players, never losing sight that they were young and on the way up. 4d t the start of the year the goal for the J.V. softball team was to develop a group of young ladies who were ladies on off the field and to instill in them 4d [eis That was the key to J.V.

But Ms. Marshall, the team, and Meadowbrook got more than they bargained for. The team end- ed up with a 10-2 district record, just one off the district champion. Sophomore co-captain Rachel Nun- nally expressed the teams feelings. “The team worked hard on the basics in the hopes of improving. Winning so many games was exciting and the ones we lost only encouraged us to play harder.” The team was led both offensively and defensively by eighth graders Mandy Saunders and Rhonda Rost, while Nunnally and Tracy Bohannon were the captains. Overall the team grew together in skill and discipline and their games showed it. Shortstop Rhonda Rost summed it up by saying “We were really disap- pointed when we finished just one be- hind the champions.

FAVES a minute, | still remember the first day of ninth grade.” You said it, we all said it. We knew what it meant — a lot more work; but, also a chance to have some fun and get some freedom. It was finally our Senior year. They say it’s the best year of your life. It sure was great. Homecoming, Prom, the dates, the parties, Beach Week, being with your friends for the last time. They say that ten years from now we'll probably never see each other again. But, it doesn’t matter now. We know that the memories of High School, even if the names and faces become fuzzy, will always be in our hearts. Now that we’re out, let’s look back. We’ve had some fun, we've had some pain. We’re supposed to grow up now. But, let’s pause and think about the memories, and boy do we have some memories. Circle of Friends. Senior girls enjoy a moment together during Senior picnic.

People were sharing seats, standing on the back wall and even in the hall- way. Alright, caring seniors!! What had made the seniors so upset? Class president Gretchen Givens re- called, ‘I was upset because the Class of ’89 cared and we were not getting much of a response concerning the lack of a sponsor and the non-existence of senior privileges.” The outcome of this meeting was the initia- tion of senior privileges. What did the seniors think? Some thought they were great, others felt they weren’t enough, while some just felt indifferent. The privileges included getting out early for lunch and after sixth period, the commons during lunch, and special privileges at pep rallies. When asked if having privileges were all he expected it to be and why, one student replied, ‘‘Well, not really, but they are better than nothing!,’’ which is what we started out with.” After three grueling years of high school, many seniors agreed that having privileges made their last year in high school more fun and relaxing, and everyone agreed that having a sponsor was one less thing to worry about for the last year in high school. At the top! Seniors peer down from their perch upon the un- derclassmen below during Pep Rallies. Is this a privilege? Seniors Dee Thorne and Nicki Matthews take advantage of one of their few privliges by hanging out in the Commons at lunch. 128 Seniors Mike Acosta Drama 9, 10, 11, 12; SADD 10, 11, 12; Theater Pro- duction 9, 10.

Senior” Mona Khalid reflects on how poe oo : y Goge Z G)?s of the most difficult changes that seniors experienced was parting with their friends. Seventy percent of the seniors felt this way be- cause many of their friends had been a part of their worlds for a lifetime. Even those who had been close just through high school shared many things that make it pain- ful to say goodbye. One sentimental senior ex- pressed the thoughts of many, “goodbye is almost like dying.” Others disagreed. An optimistic sen- ior described goodbye as “only a departure of one place, but also a hello to something else.” As far as keeping in touch aftergraduation, the majority said “no.” Busy work s¢hedules and dif- ferent colleges would hinder communication for them. Thirty-eight percent, however) felt that close friends will find a way to keep in touch, either by phone, letters, or visits. One senior not- ed “It’s hard to believe that friends you talk to everyday may never be seen again after these few months.” When reflecting on their high school years, seniors found certain events especially memora- ble. For examle, many thought of special times spent with friends, parties, Prom, and athletic events. They look forward to adding graduation and beach week to their collection of memories. When asked if the senior class was close, the results were basically split three Ways. There are those that said “no”, due to diversity,within the class, then those that said ‘somewhat’, who see the class as split into separate clicks which are closely knit within themselves. The most popular answer, “yes”, was supported by such arguments as “We work well together” and ‘Everyone knows everyone else.” Overall, saying goodbye was one aspect of be- ing seniors to which they were not looking for- ward. A heartbreaking change from an environ- ment filled with familiar faces into a strange world filled with who knows who. One senior summed it up best by saying “I think it’s better to say ‘See LEY H ya later’. Se Pa es Seniors 131 Don’t waste your time, use it to the fullest. Find out who your real friends are! Don’t lose this moment for it can never be regained in MBK. Work hard now because life is a harsh reality. Never try to fit in, just try to stand out! Take each day as it comes. Don’t goof off (especially if you have Rowlett!) The more you give to the school — the more you get out of it! Don’t sacrifice yourself for others, be strong and do what you want to. Hang in there — Graduation will be worth it! Study — you don’t want to take exams. Don’t let people choose your friends. Respect yourself! Don’t procrastinate on work and projects. Don’t gossip, be honest and true. A Few Pointers: Senior, Neil Desai, advises sophomore Pam Lin on how to put the new ‘88 Sceptre year- books in order. Table Talk.

Him Casual slouch prepares him for lounge chairs during beach week ‘Rolling’ over Physics! Wayne Brockwell finds a way to deal with his disenchantment of being a senior. Seniors 135 nce upon a time, there was a senior in high school. He had no name, for if he had, this story would be pointless. This senior was re- flective of the entire senior class. He was rather arro- gant. He was condescending to the underclassmen, much to their chagrin. He acted very important, and quite unafraid. Ironically, it was this most mature senior who had the worst of fears — worse yet than any underclassman. This senior feared many things, the least distressing of which were getting in trouble, tak- ing exams, peer pressure, being an outcast, not “fitting in’, getting caught smoking in the bathroom, having nerds for friends, having rumors going around about him, and most importantly, not having a date for prom. More importantly, though, was the nightmare this sen- ior, like most seniors, had — a recurring nightmare of not graduating. It rang in his ears like a cannon blast. Most seniors have a genuine fear of not graduating — even those who are making honor roll. They are afraid that some whim of fate may ruin their lives and that they, too, will be stuck in this living hell for one more miserable year. When it comes to post-graduation fears, this senior fears such common things as not being rich, choosing the right career, an all encompassing war, responsibil- ity, the unknown, loneliness, having to work for a liv- ing, getting fat, and having only one Porsche 911 SG Targa. But, like most of his friends, this senior ques- tioned more than anything his ability to survive in the world. Fear not, though, because as this senior went through life — graduating, getting a job, a wife, a fam- ily, these fears became but vague memories in his mind, and he even began to wonder how he could fear such things. A little hard work in the real world, just as in high school, was all it took to reap a great reward. Don’t press your luck!

More than half the class, 52.6% planned to go to college after high school, with another 13.02% planning to work their way through college; while 7.29% plan to go into the military while attending college. Some 14.52% of the class of ’89 planned to enter the work force after high school. Still others, 5.73%, wanted to go straight into the military, and a number of students, 3.125% wanted to marry after high school. A lucky few, 52% would travel after graduation, and another 3.125% have other plans for life after high school. All in All, the students of the class of ‘89 went in many different directions after that fateful day of graduation. 5.73% Military Marriage —- 3.125% Other Travel 3.125% 52% Seniors 139 y | 4 ‘ve become more open minded and | care about things. My attitude has really changed too.” “I think | am more confident and less shy than | used to be.” “I can’t wait until college!’”” The Senior class, when asked about that scary process of growing up, ex- pressed these opinions about how their high school experiences have changed them and their peers during this exciting and often turbulent time in a person’s life. No o ne ever said growing up was easy, and the Seniors seemed to agree as they expressed their opinions on the personal changes that took place within them these past years. Eighty-nine percent of them stated that high school definitely changed them, and that they have grown up during this time. Some of the things that they felt changed were their responsibility, attitude, physical appearance, maturi- ty; and of course, their social lives: However, one Senior stated “I really haven’t changed; I’m just as wild and crazy as | used to be, if not more!’ Sixty-nine of the Seniors felt that their friends have changed also, and in many of the same ways. On the other hand, the Seniors responded quite differently when asked if they and their friends had changed for the better or the worse. Forty-two per- cent stated that the changes had been for the better, and 21 percent said that people changed both ways, with the change depending on the individual and their attitude and values.

Robert Windom ne sensible senior simply remarked, “Live and learn,” while yet another Senior stated, ‘The world today makes it impossible to become better because there is so much trouble inviting us to get into it!’’ Growth obviously is a vigorous challenge and struggle for some, but as youngsters our parents always reminded us that experience is the best teacher. A lot of this learning and experience is certainly gained in school, and 66 percent of the Seniors be- lieved that high school provides a good atmosphere for growing, learning, and experiencing. Many re- marked that only sometimes it provides these things. “You learn so much in school,”” remarked one sen- ior. “And not just book Jearning, either. If you take advantage of opportunities, you learn a lot about the stuff life is made of.” What about the future? Will the high school years be tucked away in the: memory like an eternal.time capsule never to be opened again, or will they be fondly remembered and regarded as the best times of our lives? Fifty-eight percent of the Seniors stated that yes, high school_will:.be the best years of their life; while 30 percent say no; they will not be the best. Many believe that college will be the best time for them, largely due to the fact that they will be on their own, free to make their own decisions. Some will be reluctant to leave the friends that have shared this time with them. One honest Senior remarked, “Yes, | enjoyed my high school years because they were a blast. | would do it all over again if | could.” Even though several stated they would feel intimi- dated by the future, the Seniors appear to look for- ward to what’s ahead of them as they prepare to leave the shelter and warm embrace of friends and memories to meet the hidden challenges of tomor- row. Lean on me! Seniors Ni- cole Burton and Mary Clanton smile at how their friendship has withstood the test of time. Three’s not a crowd! Tak- ing a break from the hastle of life, seniors Cynthia Childress, James Mon- teria, and Canytha Martin enjoy the playfullness of friends. Seniors 143 The year is now over; thus our time is through And as the class of ’89 this is our farewell to you: Over the years we've done everything, though some right and some wrong The road we’ve travelled has been challenging and long. All of the memories and all we’ve become we'll never let 80, The experiences we've had we'll never again know. We've grown together and we’ve grown apart, we’ve been at our best and we’ve been at our worst. We've laughed and we've cried but for one thing we've always strived: To move forward in search of who we really are, and from our first days Four years ago we've surely come far. We've loved and we've hated, we’ve partied and we've fought. We’ve gotten away with murder, and for less we’ve gotten caught. We’ve shared the best moments of our lives with those we'll always hold dear, With the hand of a friend we’ve overcome a worst fear. We've passed and we’ve failed, we’ve been ridiculed and Robert Woodson Tracey Susanne Woody Chorus 11, (Pres.) 12; Dra- ma 9, 10, 11, 12; Foreign Language 9; Mu Alpha we’ve been hailed. We’ve broken a few laws in search of some fun, and skipped a few days to lie in the sun. We’ve studied and we’ve cheated, we’ve been victimized and mistreated We've been cut down by the words of an enemy’s knife And we've grown close to best friends we'll remember for life Yes, we’ve done more then some might admit, And though we’ve had our problems we’ve never once quit. But more than anything we’ve changed and w e've become honest inside. We’ve learned who we are and from our real selves we no longer hide. We are finally individuals without the need of anyone’s o.k. We believe in ourselves, and don’t base our personalities on what others say. We are ready to enter life because we are finally free, Free to live, love and to just be what we want to be. And for those to follow we wish the best and hope all we've done you'll one day do. But whatever you learn, if nothing else, just learn to be you. — Amy Moran Shannon Kristan Young Drama 9, 10, 11; Foreign 144 Seniors Tim Wiseman Foreign Language 10, 11, 12) Math Club 41, 12: Symphonic Band 9; Marching Unit 9.

For most juniors this was a time to reflect back on the good times as well as the bad times. Being one year from graduating they wanted to feel mature. Looking back the realization oc- - curs that we are not children anymore. When asked if they wanted to be a little kid again around the ages of 8 to 10 yrs. old, most juniors replied no, be- cause now that they have gotten so close to graduating who wants to start all over again? 60% of the juniors in answering no, said sim- ply that there is plenty more to do now and they have a lot more freedom. Another question was thrown to the jun- iors, Do you sometimes play with toys you had 6 years ago? 83% of the ime Sure Flees junior class said No! In answering the question, 95% of the juniors wish they were graduated and on their own. One junior imparti- cular replied ‘Yes, be- cause | wouldn’t have to hear my parents complain all of the time. | would feel like | had accomplished something in life.’ Still another replied that “Yes for indepen- dence, but No, because | want to make friends and not feel like I only had 300 from my class to choose from. To be able to accept me as | am, not as they want me to be.” When you are 25, would you like to be back in high school? Well that question was posed to the junior class of Meadowbrook Highschool and sur- prisingly enough 55% of them said that they would like to go back to highschool when they are 25. So, 45% said that they would not. One junior put it this way ‘Probably be- cause I'll have a lot of responsibility that | won't want.” Another’ replied “No, when | am twen- ty-five the part of my life that was highschool will be over and I've never relished repeat- ing any parts of the past!’’ Finally our last stu- dent said ‘Definitely, it does not get any easier from here!” So off we go into the future. For most juniors the thoughts that are cross- ing their minds right now are graduation ina year and five months, final exams, and finally prom coming up. The past is in the past and the future looks bright ahead. Let’s take one students advice and “Not dwell in the Past!”’ Share the Knowledge!

David Deplato finds out how pressures from school and life can push you over the edge. _ rom the op- posite sex to parents, what could juniors do to handle the unrest? What was stress to a jun- ior? To one stressed out junior it was simply “school.” To another it was more complex, “Stress is an overworking of the body, sometimes causing a break- down in the nervous sys- tem.” Other things that put a lot of stress on juniors were the opposite sex, school administrators, and parents. One junior exclaimed that they needed to ‘enter Tuckers” to reduce some of their stress. A few others claimed that if teachers as- signed less homework their lives would be less stressful. A really fed up junior said that they just ‘‘waited for the weekend.” Juniors liked doing things with their friends and play- ing sports to get their minds off stress. Others go to their rooms and beat up their stuffed animals to help relieve, the days’ Out of approximately 198 answered surveys, 78% of the juniors said that school caused them the most stress. 56% said that their families caused them anxiety, 36% said their job caused them some strain, 28% of the juniors said that their friends were the ones that had put pressure on them. A few juniors had differ- ent opinions on how stress- ful their lives should be. One commented, ‘No, we shouldn’t have the stress because we need to enjoy our high school years be- fore we get out on our own.’ A mature response was, “Yes, stress builds up responsibility, but too much can cause serious ill- ness.” A carefree junior ex- claimed ‘‘That’s part of life!’’ Stress to juniors ranged from the serious to the silly: from having a nervous breakdown to fretting about what to do on the weekend. To juniors, dealing with stress wasn’t all bad.

And, as..sophomores, nothing had changed. They were also in- formed of the huge amount of this sub- stance they would need for their junior prom. It meant fun- draising madly the whole year.

So, what next? Well, to kick off the fundrais- ing, they sold carna- tions for homecoming. Sales were good enough but not even enough for a band. And so it was back to the drawing board for more brainstorming. So they started writ- ing leters and collect- ing memorabilia for a celebrity auction to be held in late spring. Many hot items were collected including au- tographed pictures, and even a dress Vanna White had worn on “Wheel of Fortune”, Wow! that would sure go. fast. ” While that was still being planned, a candy sale and another carna- tion sale were held. Sales were even better the second time around for the carna- tions and the candy sale went well also. _ Besides fundraising, the first success was the Homecoming float. Many dedicated mem- bers of the class sup- plied the necessary ma- terials and labor to complete the creative but hard task. And sur- prise!, the float won first place, which was rare and an honor for a so phomore class. After the Valentine carnations, sopho- mores were crying ‘No more!’’ But without avail, brochures were passed out and meet- ings in each English class were held to pro- mote the new money maker. ‘What now?” they asked. More can- dy and knick-knacks were sure to do the trick! They had great incentives,.too, such as prize money of up to $50. So, with a sigh of a relief, the “sold-out” - sophomores’ were ready to conquer their junior year well pre- pared to enter ... the Prom Zone! Perfection.

Most sophomores don’t think about their future because its only just begun but when asked how sophomores felt about getting old- er, 43% said that they were scared. One not so eager student re- marked “I think getting older puts more re- sponsibilities on you, but it also gives you more priveleges.”” Over 23% of the sopho- mores agreed that re- sponsibilities do come with age, one student commented, ‘As you get older you learn more about the outside world and you are more independent.” On a negative side to Moving up!

One student admitted that they thought life was harder as you be- come older because there are more prob- lems and _ responsibil- ities to be faced. An- other student summed it up best when they said, ‘Its hard growing up but everybody can get through it.” Allin all many sopho- mores felt that growing up meant you needed to be more depend- able, with added re- sponsibilities, but age also brought fun with freedom.

When asked if they got along with their parents 45% of the students replied yes, 46% said most of the time, and 9% said no. One student remarked, “Yes, now | do.

Amazingly over 58% replied no, and 6% yes. A recent question that was asked was do your parents un-- derstand you? Just 35% of the students said yes and 13% said no.

Yes, all freshmen admit- ted that they had some fears about life. Their fears ranged from the minute to the major, from social life to school work and grades. Most were just worried about about the mystical move from middle school to high school. Others were unsure of the indepen- dence they would receive in in their move to high school, while others just re- joiced at this opportunity of growing up, and moving on on to another stage in life. The “greatest fear’ of coming to high school was “being a FRESHMAN!” “Be- ing judged simply because we were the youngest ones at school.” One freshman admitted, ‘‘I was pretty scared”. The thing looked forward to the most at high school had to have been the in- crease in social life, espe- cially PARTIES! Other things looked forward to were making new friends, doing more activities, and reshmen’s fears ex- one of the most important, _ te _ positive peer pressure put getting into serious rela- tionships! Some freshmen began new relationships with old- _ er students while they re- tained. old relationships with people with own age or grade. The peer pressure - in high school was much greater than that of middle school so some freshmen were afraid of doing things that they would not have done at middle school.

In actuality the transition to high school wasn’t such a big change “except that the teachers have more respect for you, and that is as a student and as a person, instead of like a child that must be told ev- erything that is expected of them at all times. “The feelings toward our friends have changed very much in good and bad ways.” “There are are many new, different, and exciting people here,’’ said one freshman. At high school everyone can be an individ- ual, they dress in the styles they like, listen to the music of their choice and have the freedom to have a differ- ence opinion without any- one looking down upon you for it. Mitzi Fisher said, “My feelings toward my friends have changed dras- tically, “I seem to care for them more.” Freshmen claimed that their grades remained the same while others said that their grades had dropped. One freshman stated, “There is so much to do and such little time to do it in.” Taking the first step to adulthood and maturity was a major fear to most fresh- men for more will be ex- pected of them in the up- coming years.

Student teachers get their first taste of teaching, and mentor teachers reminisced about their stu- dent teaching experiences. elating, Cooperation, Organization, Committment, Frustration, and of course satisfaction were just a few words that the student teachers for 1988- 89 learned the true meanings of as they began the scary and enjoyable climb to becoming teachers. Many of the student teachers came to the realization that teaching is more than just a job; it’s a way of life after taking over the problems and rewards of teaching in a classroom setting for six to nine weeks. Some student teachers found out that teaching was more work than expected. For instance, Donna Perry, alias Debbie Gibson, a student teacher for French un- der the supervision of Linda Davidson said, “Il was very surprised about how much work was entailed in being prepared and organized for class, but the most difficult task was having to say Au Revoir — good- bye.” Student teachers were very excited when they found out that they were actu- ally making a difference. People were lis- tening to what they had to say, reading books they had recommended, and were really making friendships.” There was a great abundance of student teachers in the building this year which led teachers to think of their own experiences as student teachers. Many teachers con- curred with Jack Rooney’s statement that “Student teaching was a lot of work, but Preps. Mr. Noriega explains his lesson plan to Mrs. MacKinnon. was also exciting. | remember learning how to relate and care about the stu- dents.” As a student teacher, Earl Binns remem- bered one funny incident. He was in the hall and stopped a boy who was looking at a Playboy centerfold and he asked, “Can you give me a good reason why this maga- zine is conducive to an educational envi- ronment?” At that point he handed Mr. Binns the magazine and said, “Just take the book mister, | don’t even know what you mean!”’ As the year progressed veteran teachers were asked if they could give student teachers some advice. Many interesting replies were heard. For instance, Gerrie Lohr said, ‘Be prepared everyday, don’t wing it and know your basic skills.” Fran Boswell, Linda Rusher and Thelma Lohr were in concurrence with the idea that it is necessary to listen to a students thoughts and problems because a students input is a necessity if the teachers want to teach well. So the next time you think that teachers go home and lock themselves in their clos- et to read a book without ever giving a second thought to the students they teach during the day, just remember that from the time they were student teachers to the present, they have found that it takes a certain kind of committment and determi- nation to teach. Out of the Blue. Student teacher Miss Perry teaches French with her fresh, young Debbie Gibson look-alike style. Soup is good food. Mrs. Roof teaches stu- dent teacher Mr. Harrison the finer points of cafeteria duty. Teachers did more in their spare time than think about school; many had very interesting collections and hobbies. ear ye! Hear ye! Let it be known to the entire world that teachers are real peo- ple! You may be saying, ‘‘How could someone who appears so tyrannical be human?” Ah, but they are. Unknown to many a stu- dent, most teachers go home and lead normal lives. They do not merely go home and study their beloved subject. And, just like “‘normal’’ people many teachers have hobbies and collections. Now, of course, often teachers have collections that are more than ordinary; extraordinary if you will. Mr. Burns, that ever-so unorthodox math teacher, has a cornucopia of collections. He has an extensive collection of eastern and middle eastern music, old books — many dating before 1910, mugs and bookmarks from everywhere. He travels, and most uniquely of all — he collects hair- balls. Mrs. Swenson collects mu- sic and refinishes furniture. An- other teacher collects teddy bears and has over 75. On the lighter side, Mrs. Lux claims to be adept in the collection of grand- children, having a literal plethora of the little bundles of joy. When not in school many teachers enjoy engaging in a vari- ety of hobbies. Mr. Angell has been seen around town singing in choirs and collecting trivia tidbits to add to his abundance of facts. Playing the guitar is a relaxing and rewarding hobby to Mr. Romero. And Mr. Accashian, that advocate of positive attitudes and physical One of these days. Displaying part of her music collection, Mrs. Prince looks over one of her Pin k Floyd albums. fitness practices that he preaches by running and staying in shape. It apparently helps him to get his football teams in top shape as well. SS ST Modern day Segovia. Mr. Romero plays his guitar and sings Feliz Navidad for his class. Of course, most of us do know that teachers are human. But few realize their normality. Often, it is the escapism enjoyed through these collections that allows the teachers to cope with day to day stress. It is often that human as- pect that makes them good teachers.

But, in things cybernetic, he’s more than merely sufficient; In fact, some might say he’s downright omniscient. Computers, | mean, those machines so often confounding To those of us without a clean understanding Of RAM’s and ROM’s and functions binary And other such concepts we find contrary. And the man? Why, none other than Sir James, nee Taylor, Father, grandfather, teacher, poet, and part-time sailor, Who, when he arrives driving his vintage black caddy Looks more than Burl Ives like the proverbial Big Daddy; Or, strolling the halls in his white lab coat, Strikes a distinctly professorial note. Yes, he’s our ‘‘computer man” extraordinaire, A figure at once commanding and debonair. But, lest you think his students suffer fright, They say, “his bark is worse than his ‘byte.’ ”’ He founded the program in the county Which has grown to proportions of exceptional bounty. But now he seeks those fields Elysian Where the pace of life is more relaxed and pleasing. And so, Jim, we bid you a fond “adieu”; May your days be long, your troubles few, Both your hardware and software free from glitches And other such anomalous hitches. If, as said the bard, “parting is such sweet sorrow,” Then we'll all be a little sadder on the morrow. — Mac Angell Log This! Stephen Goldsby, First Recipi- ent of the James C. Taylor Computer Sci- ence Award. Strollin’. Jim Taylor takes a walk down the senior hall with his backpack in tow. We are Family.
