Tonja Ellis and Lisa Atwood enjoy a laugh before their next class. Friends were an important part of school life. Racing toward the finish line, Jason Hoffman excels in tricycle races as well as basketball. This race was part of the pep rally held before the district tournaments for boys' basketball. Individuality exists Each class, individual display diversity of personalities While maintaining positive relationships with each other Q ■ What is the one thing that separates your class from the other classes? A I believe that our senior class is more mature, intelligent, and unified than the other classes. The fact that we will soon be graduating brings our class together. People realize that we won't be seeing each other for a long time, so we tend to be closer during the time we have left. -JoAnne Beiriger A ■ I think the main thing that separates the juniors from the others is the great emphasis on athletics by the students in general. Whether that is good or bad, most of the students in my class seem to place high priority on sports while the other students have more varied interests and place a greater emphasis on academics. -Brad McLain I really don't know. We're not super rowdy or super smart or any one thing. I think we are a whole bunch of different people (different from each other) that happen to be grouped under just one label: SOPHOMORES. -Katie Moore Q ■ Are students able to be themselves at NHS? A t m If you want to be yourself, you can. There are a lot of interest groups at NHS. Also, there are students with many diverse interests. Students should be able to find other people to be friends with and be themselves. -Brad McLain Q ■ How important are your friends to you? A %■ My friends are “mega-important to me. They may not realize that, but they are. I need friends to discuss ideas, to solve problems, and to discover new things. My friends l£l me be me and help me be me. -Brad McLain A School wouldn't be much fun without friends, neither would LIFE. My best friend and I are always together. I like that because we have a lot of fun. -Katie Moore -L. Thelander
