If lf you set high goals for yourself, you're bound to work harder Goals Striving to improve one's self result of student decisions Goals are defined as results or achievements toward which effort is directed. Students set up goals towards which they strived to improve themselves and the school. The new decade approached promising new horizons. Students realized that during the next years, they would make decisions which would affect the rest of their lives. Upperclassmen made goals primarily concerned with career choices to be pursued through a college or a job following graduation. Financial aid applica- tions, SAT forms and college applications all became a reality. Underclassmen made goals concerning courses to take and activities to participate in that would prepare them for college, a job, or life- long interests. e The student body made goals to improve the school. Town Hall meetings, art staff graphics and a desire to make Milhi a better place all helped set a new, higher standard of excellence. and succeed.

Challenge Students use enthusiastic effort to gain confidence, obtain goals Challenge has been described as putting out extra effort and self-dedication to obtain a certain goal or accomplishment. Challenge has been also defined as using one's enthusiasm and abilities to achieve a problem or take a risk. There have been many of these challenges given and goals met as Milhi started off the new decade. Meeting challenges has been one of Milhi's goals for years. Milhi students were challenged to reduce vandalism in the school and to have a cleaner place in which to learn. Students met the challenge of different and difficult classes and using new leaming skills. The football team met the challenge of a hard-fought season and went to the playoffs. 'Writing an in-class theme for Mr. Redpath's class' was a challenge for Julie DeVito, senior. V Challenges that the students faced helped Milhi begin a new decade and gave the students the con- fidence to meet challenges of later years. The new skills and abilities which were reached helped make Milhi a much better place to be.
