Everybody takes part! Not only did students and faculty members become involved in school activities this year, but parents and local businesses took an active part in supporting the Unicorns. From waiting in line for tickets at seven o'clock in the morning to displaying signs with spirit phrases in front of SIOICS to cheering the team on to victory, the community showed its spirit and support for the Unicorns. Data processing is new to everyone! Kelly Ard, Charles Zech, and Kevin Jonas diligently work at their com- puters as Trinity Brandt, Greg Carter, and Marty Espinoza gather around to see how information is retrieved from the computer after being stored on a magnetic disk.

In the News Changes Make the N ws Each school year is different from the years in the past and the years to come. From stu- dent life to athletics, changes make each year more signifi- cant and special than the year before. Although some changes went relatively unnoticed, most were important enough to make the headlines of the local newspapers. Football made the news ear- ly in the year with a second place ranking for the team in 4A schools by the Harris poll. As the season progressed, the Unicorns' tie with Gonzales moved the ranking to fifth and the loss to Fredericksburg mov- ed the team to ninth in the state. But the change in rank- ings did not affect the Unicorns' playing ability as they moved into the play-offs as expected. However, the loss to the Bay City Blackcats in the semi-finals ended the season for the Unicorns making the final ranking third in the state. The patrons of the school district began showing their support of the school system early in the year. Along with students and faculty members, parents and local businesses visibly supported school ac- tivities and boosted school spirit. Local businesses such as Walker's Fried Chicken, Webb Lube Center, and Robar's showed their support of the Unicorns by displaying dif- ferent signs with spirit phrases in front of their stores. Through attendance at home football games, local fans showed their support of the Unicorns to a tune of 337,921.00 From waiting in line for football tickets at seven o'clock in the morning to buy- ing t-shirts with Unicorn decals, the community did its part in supporting the Unicorns on and off the field or court. Changes were made to im- prove the quality of the school. Parking permits, which gave the office an accurate record of cars belonging on campus, were new to the students. The permits were issued to aid the administration in contacting students who had car problems such as lights left on, burglaries, and gas leaks. In conjunction with the second year of implementing the snif- fer dog program, the permits enabled the administration to quietly get students out of class if an incident involving their cars occurred. The sniffer dog program was considered an insurance policy to keep the campus drug free, however, the number of campus visits were reduced. With the constant changes occurring on campus, making the news, and improving the school, students, teachers, and fans made the school and its variety of programs a source of community pride. Parking permits are issued by vice- principal Charles Engler to keep an ac- curate count of the authorized cars on campus. opening 5
