To raise money, the class spon- sored several pizza sales and sold Wildcat painter hats. According to class president, Kristina Richardson, “We had the idea for the hats a year ago, but it wasn’t approved until this year.” In addition to Kristina, the original hats were designed by Becky Tellez, Libby Chavez, and assistant principal Tom Powers. At the Halloween Carnival, the sophomores sponsored a Bozzo buck- et throw. “We didn’t make much money from it,” admitted Kristina, “but then we didn’t do it for the mon- sophomore class ey. We just wanted to do something little kids would enjoy doing.” Representative Teresa Dayao was especially proud of the overall partici- pation of the class. “Everyone was really involved and willing to work,” she explained. “We came in second behind the seniors in total points ac- cumulated in the spirit competition during football season. That included points earned for number of students on the honor roll, Spirit Week partici- pation, and class yell competitions at pep assemblies.” Other projects included a sock hop in the spring and the ordering of class shirts with the slogan “Bustin out in ’87”. Various members of the class also worked in the concession booth during basketball season. Leading the sophomores in their class yell are J.V. cheerleaders Suzie Valdez, Michelle Ray. Kathy Verdugo, Becky Tellez. Dianne Hartley, and Cris Robil- lard. A smiling twosome. Bill Sheridan and Becky Tellez, represent their class at Homecoming. Sophomores-27

Available as either a semester or a year’s course, most students weren’t sure what to expect when they signed up for the class. “I thought it would be hard and boring,” admitted senior Amalia Calderon, “but instead word processing is really fun and easy to learn.” “I even like correcting mis- takes on the computers,” added Kel- lie Rhodes. “It’s a lot more fun than erasing.” Instructor Sandra Hudgens was also pleased with the development of the course. “When we started the year, I wasn’t sure just how fast we would be able to cover the material,” she commented. “The students have progressed rapidly, however, and it’s the first subject I’ve ever taught where everyone in the class really seems to enjoy it and is eager to learn.” Word processing students not only gained a very marketable skill, but found the personal uses of the course numerous as well. “I’ve used the computers to type all kinds of papers for other classes,” bragged Darlene Lizarraga. “It sure beats using an old typewriter.” The only complaint students had about the course was the amount of paper they used. “It’s frustrating sometimes!” complained Elisa Bor- jon. “I’ll try to run off work on the printer and will have something wrong with my printing commands. There are days when it seems like I use 30 sheets of paper trying to get one right.” Before running off a copy of her assign- ment. Anna Chavez adjusts her paper in the printer.
