Students can be seen working hard in class or just hanging around in the halls. During lunch, you can work in the computer room, but be sure you get a pass from Mrs. Carenbauer before A period is over. Many students like to go to the library instead of study hall. They can be seen reading a magazine or working on a term paper. After school, there are many different activities, such as sports, auxiliary corps, and clubs.

Steve And Meredeth Spark A Successful Year For Student Council “The People At Neshannock Are What Make It Such A Special Place.” Senior Linda Girvan Two of the faces in the crowd at Neshannock that became highly recognizable as the year progress were those of Student Council President Steve Griffiths and his Vice President Meredeth McKissick. For the past few years, Student Council has done one or two successful projects such as the food drive and the Christmas Dance. But as the year went by, it deteriorated into a useless group because enthusiasm was missing. Steve and Meredeth helped to put some of that enthusiasm expressed by members of council to work, and started some new things this past year that likely will stay around for a while. The Homecoming Semi-Formal, the volleyball tournament to fund the food drive, and a 50’s day, culminating with a 50’s dance, all were new this year. And another successful Christmas Dance as well as other projects that Student Council carries out all made for a super year for everyone at N.H.S. Thanks to both Steve and Meredeth for all of the hard work and dedication to the betterment of Neshannock Junior-Senior High School. Opening 3

“There Is Plenty To Do Here, If You Are Willing To Get Involved. ” Junior Mary Carenbauer The Cheerleaders Show Their Spirit, Despite Critics Despite the wise cracks about the way they are too concerned with how they look, etc., the cheerleaders at Neshannock play an important role stirring school spirit at Neshannock. Of course, we all know that they cheer at all of the football and basketball games. But, what else to they really do? Most cheerleaders give what study halls they have to paint signs for the games. They also practice for an hour at least once per week to learn new cheers and to discuss what they plan to do at the games. The cheerleaders often must leave for games at the same time as the team and usually arrive back with them. They also represent Neshannock at competitions in the area and spend much of their time in the summer at the school at clinics and at cheerleading camp. And, remember, they really get very little thanks for what they do. So, the next time you want to criticize the cheerleaders, remember: they do serve an important role here at N.H.S. Opening 5
