Dressup, Pranks and Parties Seniors participated in many activities. At the beginning of the year, they dressed up for Halloween. Everything from flies to transvestites could be seen in the halls. Throughout the year, the entire school was blessed with senior pranks. Vaseline on doorknobs, setting off fire drills and throwing B.B. ' s were a few of the tricks. One of the most popular activities for the seniors was the dinner dance. Awards were given out for the biggest mouth, funniest laugh, and longest hair among others.

Be Brave Little Buckeroo The graduation march sounded as lines of purple figures filled the rows of seats in the gymnasium. The big event is here, commence- ment had finally come and mixed emotions were evident. Tears of hap- piness filled the eyes of students and their families. Some were happier to leave high school than others, and there were those who were ready to leave, but were afraid to let go. Being ready to begin again but not knowing what they wanted out of life, all of this added to their confusion. On May 23, 1979, the night of graduation, students said good-bye to the present and hello to the future. No one is certain what it will hold. For many, it will be college or per- haps a full time job, for others just another day. Concert choir sings Brand New Day, as one of the final numbers during the graduation ceremony. In a moment of prayer, heads bowed, Ken Wilson, Jim Winchester, Kevin Workman, and Randy Wor- man finish off their school years. IVIr. Dennis Johnson gives the gradu- ates a few tips on a new beginning.
