Reach for the You may be a Dreams: Being the next Katherine Hepburn or Henry Fonda lurked in a thespian ' s heart.

Before rushing off to be discovered, students took the time to learn the be- ginning aspects of the theater. They practiced applying correct stage ma- keup; they studied the history and the literature of the theater. Drama students do play reports, which are just like book reports that are done in an English class, said Mrs. sky; lucky star Claryn Myers, drama teacher. Upon completing the beginning classes, students advanced to the the- ater arts. There they helped Mrs. Myers maintain the auditorium for the drama productions. They were responsible for all play and musical prop setups. When we help out with the play se- tups, we get a better knowledge of how the technical aspects operate, said Bill Gibbs, sophomore.

Students escape through art An escape through which students vented their feelings: Art. From clay to photography there were ways to retreat from the world. The art curriculum had many ways for students to express themselves. With the beginning art classes they over- viewed all types of art. After learning the basic steps and following them through, they chose which kind of art they wished to pursue and took more advanced courses. Broad selections ranged from painting to photography. Art was not only an outlet for emo- tions, but it also provided the student self-confidence. Art is very important. It gives a stu- dent a chance to excel in something non-verbal. Also, art shows a student they can do something, that is hand- made, in their spare time other than watching television, said Mrs. Vicki Reed, art teacher. Art offered students a chance to for- get other things with a piece of paper or clay. They had the freedom to create anything they wished.
