Candi- dates for class ofhces spent much of their time campaigning for the elections. On election day, the candidates presented their speeches to the student body. This gave the students an opportunity to make a decision based on the candidates' ideas and hopes for the upcoming school year. After the votes were tallied, Holly McCoy be- came senior class president, Brent Gilson, vice president, Wendy Bolner, secretaryftreasurer, and Darrin Webster, reporter. In the junior class, the presidency went to Danny Deal, with Paul Jones as vice president, LaChandra Hall, secretaryftreasurer, and Bryan Duke, reporter.

They were responsible for the actions of their respective classes. An example of this responsi- bility came in the assemblies. When the class as a whole displayed spirit and goodwill, the officers of that panicular class were praised. When the class behaved in a negative manner. the officers took the blame and made up for the mischief in the next assembly. Although they made decisions that were beneficial for the students, the officers had to be careful not to let activities get out of hand. The hardest responsibility was mixed, said president Holly McCoy. You have to please the faculty and, at the same time, the students who voted for you. Hard work, a requisite in becoming a class officer, paid off, especially at the end of the year. Officers felt proud of the many accom- plishments of their particular class and of the many contributions that were made to make a better school. The senior officers played a key role in the establishment of a monument in front of the school that would forever signify the con- tributions made by the class of 1986. .t . 4. as F. Y .I
