One key requirement of a registrar is that she be very dedicated to her job. Hard working Mrs. Amy Crowder is such a person. Her many responsibil- ities include making schedules, doing report cards, and keeping records for every student in the school-quite a job. I like working with the students-I really love kids, she stated. Mrs. Crowder really enjoys her job, but stated that the one thing she could do without is the schedule chan- ges-she doesn't look forward to the beginning-of-the-year or semester changes. Mrs. Crowder agrees that North High is very well-run, and she gives one-hundred-percent effort to keep it running smoothly. Unawarc ofthe presence ofthe photographer, Mrs. Amy Crowder records a stack of sched- ulc changes. Z!-'ST' ll llillllll . I 3 I W is ' I X WSH. Classified Staff Like 'The Kids' Busy, busy, busy! Mrs. Donna Ridley had plenty of things to keep her busy, but one thing is surefshe real- ly enjoyed her job as secretary to the counselors, the dean and the assis- tant dean. In addition to handling the radio that the security officers use, she also answered three phones, and also seemingly handled every- body's problems. Mrs. Ridley's job seemed to include something differ- ent each day. Mrs. Ridley has had her present job for five years. She formerly worked with attendance, which helped her to get well acquainted with the school. She really likes working at North High. I like the atmosphere, the kids, faculty, and all the friendli- ness, she said. Captured in an impromptu moment, Mrs. Cynthia Zabcn shares a humorous incident with Mrs. Donna Ridley. 140 Classified Staff gg If . . Wyman ,gif !'--x A .aah B N

5 ,,.s,sw-swans it ww Seniors-The Best In '8 What a class! The class of 1982 took its place as school leaders with great pride and fierce determination, always doing their best to achieve complete victory. The seniors excelled in school activities such as hall decorating, class yell com- petitions and the first annual class com- petition day. The senior girls overcame the juniors in the powderpuff game. While surviving senior English and S.A.T. tests, they still found time to spend many hours of hard effort con- structing the traditional homecoming float. Homecoming night was climaxed by the crowning of senior Cindy Thorpe. The senior class sponsored several school events such as the senior slave sale and the annual powderpuff game and dance. As the year drew to a close with highlights such as grad-nite, the senior fling and graduation, seniors found themselves looking anxiously, and at times tearfully, to what the fu- ture held. 142 f Seniors The class officers who represented and led the senior class were President Scott Garrison, Vice President Suzi Kopeki, Treasurer Ann Chau, and Secretary Lisa Trammel. Every year the senior class votes for senior class favorites. During the first class meeting the seniors were given ballots to choose their favorites.
