Neponset High School - Zephyr Yearbook (Neponset, IL)

Text from Pages 1 - 88 of the 1982 volume:

Welcome to the Students Progress Through New Learning Experiences at N.H.S. With most of the student body attending the widely acclaimed Farm Progress Show held in the nearby community of Brimfield, during October, it seemed only natural that we would have our own “Student Progress Show” at Neponset High. It is the endeavor of the Annual Staff through this volume of the Zephyr to provide coverage of the many activities and forms of progress which took place at Neponset High during the 81-82 school year. Hopefully as you look through these pages, you will be able to recapture some of the highlights and the uniqueness of the school year. 2 3 N.H.S. Students Attracted to Varied 4 Events at “Student Progress Show” Dedication We, the Annual Staff of 1982, wish to dedicate this, the thirty-fifth volume of the Zephyr, to Miss Marjorie Clark. During her several years of teaching in Neponset, she has taught French, shorthand, and typing. She also has sponsored the cheerleading squad. Junior Class, and French Club. Included in her duties has been the teaching of French to seventh and eighth grade students. We would like to recognize her for her dedication to the students of Neponset High School. 6 ■M O U OQ Freshmen Welcomed Into 1982 Tracy Bennett Julie Duff Tonya Hansen Dawn Fiiiher Richard Gunning Kendra Heine With Mr. Freeman their sponsor, are the Freshman clam officers consisting of Kendra Heise, treasurer; Susan Verbout, president; Richard Gunning, vice-president; and Julie Duff, secretary. 8 Student Progress Show Lori Peterson Solomon Shaner Cindy Siasel David Snyder Susan Verbout Jeff Williamson 9 Sophomores Sponsor Highly As thf Homecoming Dance is the responsibility of the Sophomores, Jeff Stabler, Secretary; Eric Fisher, Vice-President; Todd Evans, President; and Teresa Logsdon, Treasurer examine some supplier's books in search of a theme for the dance.
