■ : , Mew Knoxville School is more than bricks, cement and green paint; it is the combination of students and staff, sports and studies. When the components are in balance and in harmony, a spirited school year results. The 1987-88 school year was the beginning of a rise in school spirit because the Ranger teams put forth honest efforts, and students as a whole began to take pride in their school and themselves. The yearbook staff wanted to cap- ture this new-found pride and immortalize it in this book.
