Mrs. Sharon Hindman, Senior sponsor, remarked that early arrivals saw administrators and their wives frantically setting up chairs, speaking systems, etc., while Senior class sponsors were busily arranging diplomas, driving all over Paris looking for sheet music to 'Pomp and Circumstancef and trying to line up graduates for the procession. Tracy Brown and Michael McFrazier sang at Commencement Exercises. Liskin Swint, Valedictorian, and Melissa Jensen, Salutatorian, spoke on the class motto, A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Life O' the Party Life O' the Party was performed by the Senior Class. As in any theatrical performance, there were problems. Because there were more girls interested in the play than parts, Wilbur Maxwell was changed to Wilhelmina, and Tina Dollins was cast in the part. According to Mrs. Sharon Hindman, This brilliant move, however, posed some problems, especialy since Tina, who was portraying a ten-year-old, was taller than her considerably older sisters. However, the play was a great success. Once again, the Junior-Senior Prom was held in the Junior High Gym. The theme was These Dreams.
