I The Making Of A Senior A senior already! It’s only been 12 years!” It has been twelve years now that the Class of 1987 spent in preparation for June 8. 1987. It has not been all work and no play, though. A host of memories, from getting driver's li- censes, suffering through “freshman initiation day,” and getting that first date, back even to being able to have two recesses in one day, bringing things in for “show and tell, and all the other activities in which we had taken part since kindergarten were still vivid. As eighth graders on our way over to MHS, we could only imag- ine someday becoming seniors. For four years, teachers reminded us that in order to become seniors, we had to pass their classes. Before becoming seniors, the Class of '87 had to suc- cessfully put on a Junior-Senior Prom. Finally, on September 4, 1986, the Class of 1987 walked through the front doors as the Senior Class. With senior portraits over, it seemed that nothing could stop us. However, the year wasn't over yet. Being seniors still in- volved some responsibilities which had to be successfully carried out. First, we each had to accumulate at least the minimum number of credits and have a 70% or better average in all required courses, remembering to make sure that we had passed all of the state competencies. Caps and gowns had to be ordered. The class trip in the spring had to be taken, but we couldn't forget that as seniors, we were the students the underclassmen looked up to as role models. It was not so long ago that we too were under- classmen admiring the seniors from past years. Finally it was our time to show off what we had learned as CLASSIC CAVALIERS, and to begin our new life as young adults out in the real world. Once you are gone, what will you “Fun, laughter, pep rallies, and 'The people and what fun I had. • The relationships I have with the miss most about MHS? everything. teachers, the friends I will leave be hind and the memories that will al- ways be In my mind.

“Middletown, Delaware” “(Where’s Delaware?)” Where: 504 South Broad Street When: September 4, 1986—June 12, 1987 What: Middletown High School took part in an exciting year of education, sports, trips, other school-related ac- tivities, new relationships, preparation for the future, experiences with pain, happiness, loss, and love, and more. Who: 563 students, 69 teachers and staff, and the Middletown community. Why: It was the state law that stu- dents be reauired to attend 180 days of school and teachers attend 185 days of school. At MHS, those days were filled with daily classes, enrichment programs and extracurricular activi- ties. This was the place where adult- hood became more of a reality. From the first day of high school until gradu- ation, it was only four short years of acquiring all the necessary knowledge for functioning independently in soci- ety. School was more than cramming for that last test. Rather, it was the beginning of a new world where more responsiblities were placed on stu- dents—responsibilities which required rational thinking and problem solving abilities. At MHS, the students and teachers worked hard to become more aware of all their capabilities as indi- viduals having much to contribute to the community. This educational pro- gram was rigorous at times, but the Classic Cavaliers possessed the initia- tive to seek their full potential. Do all your classwork and home work and study hard, but most of all. listen to your teachers because they care.” Be your own person, and don't worry about what everyone else says and does. Get involved so that you make more friends and have more fun. Go with the flow. 9
