FOLLOWING HIS STEPS in Sigh Bhree Contents Introduction Administration People Activities Seniors Sports Senior memories Conclusion Whose steps are you following? Who are you allowing to imprint your life? “REFLECTOR” — Volume 24 — Introduction FOLLOWING. HIS STEPS ! Peter 2:21 ... “leaving you an example for you to follow His:-steps.” FOOTPRINTS One night a.man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand; one belonging to him. and the other to the Lord. Wherthe last scene ofhis life flashed before him, he looked back=at the footprints in the sand, He noticed that many times along the path of his-life there was. only one set of footprints� He also noticed that it happéned at the very lowest and saddest times in his life. This� really bothered him and he questioned the Lord� about it. “Lord, you said that once | decided to follow yousyou’d walk with me all the way. But | have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life, there’ is only one set of footprints, | don't undérstand why when | needed you most you would leave me.” The Lord replied, “My precious, precious child, | love you and | would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that | carried you.” - Author Unknown My sheep hear my voice m8 and | know them, and they follow Me: and | give eternal life to them, and they shall never perish ...

People Nebraska Christian iniwonmecy saree ent SUMO High Come And even since that time, it hasn’t always been clear exactly where the 7th and 8th graders fit in. Sometimes they are treated In to Its Own like the High Schoolers — for example while earning part of their tuition on a work job. At other times they may be as willing to participate, but not be allowed — as in speeches, drama, and having dates for banquets. They definitely have left grade school, with all the benefits of recess and not having to change classes, yet when county spelling contest comes along, they are ‘grade school’ again. In all this confusion of identity, NC’s Junior High has come through as their own special group — not High School, and not Grade School — with their own sports and their own activities. This year a major step was taken, showing how much NC’s Junior High has grown. 7th and 8th were split into separate classrooms, with different teachers, and different courses of study. May we introduce — the NC Junior High. Russell Barnell Lei Ferris Tom Boley Mary Jo Ferris Kerry Jividen Joel Cook Debbie Hansen Melissa McDonald Seventh Graders Enjoy New Opportunities As Seventh Graders, we experienced a new upbeat in the tempo of school activities. The many adjustments cluded a variety of new teachers, finding new classrooms, and missing our recesses. Entering the new world of Junior High offered new extracurricular opportunities such as Junior High hsketball, volleyball and track; joining pep club; and becoming more actively involved in school happenings. en our classes were new. We had never had Shop or Home Ec before.

School is going a lot better for me. Seventh grade was a year of adjustment, but now I feel like I’m doing better.” A lot of us felt this way as Eighth Graders. But even though we were ‘on the second step’ in our NC experience, there were a lot of things about the year that were brand new. For one thing, the Seventh and Eighth Grades were divided for the first time. Now we didn’t have an older, more self assured class in the room with us, and we were only fifteen instead of : ‘a twenty-nine, as in the combined � 4A E35 class last year. The two new Eighth Sa a ape Graders each added their own Wee Ss personal touch to our class as we Kyle Berck continued together on the steps toward Christ-likeness.

Meeting new demands and reaching new horizons every day, the Freshman students tackled the year with the great class of its own, By meeting such challenges as Bible I, algebra, biology and typing; the Class of ’86 began to build a foundation for future years. We have a lot of good memories from this school year — _ the banquets, the two class parties, and of course, the pep rally that we planned, when we showed the volleyball girls how to cream the Huskies.

Our class has a variety of talents. We have Varsity football, volleyball, and basketball players plus track stars. Three new kids were added to the Sophomore class. Last year’s Freshmen have changed to the max! Everyone has matured a great deal since our Freshmen year. When we compare the pressures from our Freshmen year to our Sophomore year we realize that we are beginning to have a bigger influence on the student body. Most of the Sophomores are enrolled in the same classes. Therefore we seem to think we know each other pretty well but every once in a while a new side will appea r in the person that you least expect it from. Although we all have many different ideas in mind our goal is to follow in His footsteps.

This year we have become more unified as a class and have made closer friendships. With a large percentage returning, we look back on last year as a beginning of a spurt of growth. In planning our Junior-Senior Banquet, speeches, and Major Bible Themes; we matured together in many ways. We look toward God to perfect our leadership abilities as we see our Senior year closely approaching. Gregg Kremer Janean Lehman Diane Miller Jennifer Nelson Dave Oatman Dan Olson Cherylen Porter Junior Isn't All Fun and Games The Juniors have had a busy year with decorating for the Junior- Senior Banquet and raising enough money to cover the finances. Many sacrifices of time, ability, and patience have gone into working at the candy store, running the conces- sion stand, and selling magazines and Christmas cards. Magazine sales were undertaken in a rushing contest between the Juniors and the Seniors (a contest in which the Seniors were defeated.) With some of this money we paid the last amount for the popcorn machine, split between the last four Junior Classes.

Colossians 3:17 Activities Activities s Note orA Choir is an outreach ministry. The group this year is larger than ever before ... we have forty-eight. This calls for taking a van as well as our greyhound bus. A neat opportunity this fall was a tour the choir took up into Northwestern part of Nebraska. We left on Friday, Nov. 5, at 1:00 P.M. and arrived back in Central City at 2:00 A.M. Monday morning. This gave the kids an opportunity to see new country and to personally interact with families we stayed with over night. Mr. Musgrave drove the bus and the overall summary of the weekend was “highly enjoyable, beneficial and a great idea.” February 20 was when our first tour began. Our last tour was April 24. The families of the choir members had an empty place on every other Sunday in between. Choir is an excellent chance to get to know kids better in a more casual setting as well as to be representatives of the school and to glorify God with our music. Our choir program had a variety of music for all listener’s preferences. Narrations were a key factor in the last section of our program. Throughout our program we sought to lead our audience “IN HIS STEPS.” 32 Sponsored by GEREN DRUG and GRANDMA'S COUNTRY INN Ee a y Choir Officers: President - Steve Lehman, Secretary - Kelli Lundvall.

Music theory and girl’s glee were combined this year; therefore, in between practice sessions we broadened our music know- ledge. There were eight of us girls and when the choir went on tour all of the eight but two were along, so we did one number in the choir program. We had a big day February 6, when we left the school at 6:00 A.M. and sang in the Auburn and Jansen churches. We as a group basically cover the smaller meetings and gatherings where the choir couldn't go. The combination singing and theory challenged us _ to develop our skills.

Vocal Music Left to right: Carol Snuffer Janice Stebbens Kelli Lundvall Diane Wright Mr. Sawyer Mary Hamilton When you see Mr. Sawyer running down the sidewalk it could very well be that he’s hurrying off to a voice lesson. Adding voice lessons to Mr. Sawyer’s already busy schedule really keeps him running. Ten different lessons are spread over five days of the school week. The various individuals spend time working on contest pieces and perfecting their vocal qualities. We feel that as a result of voice lessons we not only benefitted from Mr. Sawyer’s Vocal Knowledge but also gained a friend. Activities Tuning Our Lives After His This year the NC band was one of the biggest in years. There are many underclassmen with a lot of talent. They will further develop it in the years to come. Our band played at the Advance Dinner and the Harvest Festival, and went to District Contest. Some members had the privilege of going to a couple of honor bands this year. The band has also been appreciated for playing during games to keep the spirits high. We feel it has been a great year and we have profited from it. We hope that others have too.

Involvement in cheerleading has kept six active girls VERY busy over the past sports seasons. Our 7 A.M. practice helped develop our spiritual lives as well as our cheerleading abilities. We each took turns bringing breakfast and sharing in a devotion. A dimension was given to our squad with the emphasis we put on mounts. Mrs. Judy Rogers with her previous experience, was a great asset in helping us with new cheers and mounts. Mrs. Schreiber, our cheerleading sponsor, was a tremendous help in organization and leadership. To help pay for various expenses, we sold donuts at home games for our dedicated Eagle fans. To stretch six voices into fifteen voices, we organized a pepclub. The members purchased sweaters and did a great job cheering at the games. The biggest change for the cheerleaders was getting to wear skirts to cheer in. This was a big adjustment but became well accepted. An important verse to all of us is Prov. 15:13 a “A joyful heart makes a cheerful face ...” Activities let the words of my mouth ..... be acceptable. Getting up the nerve to talk in front of an audience is quite a task. This is the very thing our speech and drama department does. Their speeches have entertained us at banquets, in chapel, and at our school speech contest. After much decision making, our school contest judges chose some of the students to go on to district speech contest. Others of these students acted in our school play. Some participated in contests in Elm Creek and Lexington, and a few of them had the opportunity to be in a Mock Trial March 1|5. It takes practice to get speeches down right and make them successful, but in the long run we all agree it’s worth it.

We found the work to be fun as well as a real chal- lenge! Especially on deadline days when the post office closes at 4:30 and Miss Johnson leaves the school at 4:25 in hopes of getting the pages mailed on time. We worked a lot on Tuesday nights. Listening to Amy Grant we were able to get some real constructive work done and produced a lot of memories we won't soon forget! Our goal this year as editors was to carry the theme of “FOLLOWING HIS STEPS” throughout the yearbook and to give you as a student body a genuine concensus of the 82-83 school year. Being a sports editor for the Reflector is kind of an overlap of many functions. If you decide to be a sports editor you will probably find yourself behind a camera taking pictures of sporting events, working on layouts for sports pages, writing articles, developing pictures, selling ads, or whatever needs to be done. Some privileges are being in on many secrets dealing with REFLECTOR. It is what you make it and being a sports editor can be interesting and fun. Is this what Reflector does to you?

The writers of the INSIGHT seek to accomplish the goal of providing informative and interesting articles for the readers to enjoy. We like to interview the readers themselves so as to get the “public opinion” for certain articles. Keeping tabs on the sports news is also an area we cover each month. The reporters do an excellent job of interviewing and putting together articles. The work that goes into INSIGHT articles each month is worth it. Every time the ADVANCE comes out, we read our INSIGHT page.

C. student body met for a half hour’s time set apart from the busy school day schedule. During this time, we often had the privilege of hearing pastors from the community, singing groups from colleges, or the sharing of our own faculty members and students. Films were another popular chapel item and many area churches shared with us the films they'd rented. Some days “chapel” was an awards assembly, honoring students who'd excelled in academics, sports, or other activities. All of these in conclusion helped us “FOLLOW HIS STEPS.” Dale Roth Semesters begin fe with Spiritual 7 Life Meetings The very first week of school began with three days of meetings with Pastor James Jost from Omaha. Everyone appreciated his gentle man- ner and honest sharing from his personal experiences as well as his exposition of the Word. Then, in early February, Pastor Dale Roth, a missiohary on furlough from Japan, came and shared with us, in chapel, and in many classes. He not only had spiritual insight, but also a keen understanding of the culture he’d been working in. Everyone appreciated his sharing. These special meetings channel us “IN HIS STEPS.” James Jost Activities Dynamics You can find a lot of things in NC’s boy’s dorm, but there’s one thing you very seldom find, and that’s peace and quiet ... unless, of course, John and Mr. Hamilton are involved in a game of chess, or Rance and Zane have lollipops in their mouths, or Rod and John are too busy wrestling to talk. But then, Walt and Sue Hamilton didn’t come here for peace and quiet — they came here to NC to serve the Lord as parents and examples for the 20 boys in the dorm this year. And both the Hamiltons and the boys have benefited from the arrangement and have grown together.

But for Ed, who grew up with more brothers than sisters .. . well ... it was a new experience living under the same roof with twenty-eight women. He knew lots about NC, having graduated here, but his experience DIDN’T prepare him for life in a girls dorm. The girls enjoyed the dorm this year under the administration of the new parents. For many NC graduates some of the best memories they hold of the school are of fun times and friendships in the dorm — parties, water fights, popcorn, studies, exercises — the list is endless. And in all the bustle and activity, they learned — from the Rittas, and from each other — more about following in the steps of the Lord.

They beat Clarks, who were rated eighth in the state just two games before they played us, then lost to Silver Creek, ranked seventh in the state. They beat Wolbach, lost to Cedar Rapids, and won the last game by a large margin. The team not only played well, but gained great unity, and should have an awesome season next year. Five seniors contributed to the Eagle team this year, and each played an important role. Steve McHargue and Steve Munnell were the student managers, and Dave Olson, Dave Rowand, and Les Clevenger filled various positions on offense and defense. Sponsored by R. AND R.

JV Eagles go undefeated in 82 season Unless a student was ineligible because of transferring from another school, he was apt to see plenty of action in both JV and Varsity games this year. There was no doubt about it — NC’s team was young, and the experience the Freshmen and So- phomores gained both in JV games and in Varsity games will go a long way in shaping the team in the coming seasons. Sponsored by CENTAUR ENTERPRISES, GRAND ISLAND Did Double Duty Sports Varsity Endures and Benefits from a Tough Season The long hard hours of practice helped mold and improve the young Varsity team. The season may have looked discouraging record-wise, but the young team gained lots of experience.

The strong JV’s developed a talent for pulling a small miracle out of the bag at the end of every game, but the real secret was hard work, which they did plenty of every day. A lot of the JV players spent a lot of time in the Varsity games, and kept the Varsity players working hard to keep their starting roles.

Besides their regular season games the young eagles also entered the Chapman Early Bird Tournament. Sports 1983 Girls’ Track : “When the Going Gets Tough ... The mild sunny weather that first week of March — the natural restlessness of spring that always makes a person want to get out and run — the end of a four-day break — all these helped make the first few days of track season a little more bearable; but nothing can make track an easy sport. After the muscles get over their stiffness and soreness from the beginning of the season, there’s yet to come the need for steady, patient determination as initial gains and improvements level off, and days get hotter, workouts more strenuous. Even though we're working as a team, it all comes down to how much individual discipline each girl has as she looks toward the goal. Maybe that’s why the Bible compares our Christian walk to a race. We need the same kind of determination as we follow in His steps, to “keep looking unto Jesus.” WALSWORTH PUBLISHING COM PANY H i Th) a i Navn mt
