How’s it going?” H “Oh, okay, I guess. How bout you?” “Pretty good.” “Good grief! The hallways sure are crowded these days.” “Yeah, I know what you mean. You just about have to push your way through.” “By the way, Suzi, are you gonna go see the registrar about your schedule?” “You bet! I’m gonna slip in there tomorrow morning before first period unless my bus is late . . . again.” “Girl, you’re lucky. When your bus is late it’s no sweat. When my boyfriend makes me late, I get into big trouble. In fact, if I’m late one more time, I'll get sent home . . . for three days! You eating lunch today?” “No! I hate waiting in that awful line. Besides, by the time I get to the serving line, there’s nothin’ left but dry ‘soyburgers’ and cold, clammy French fries.” “Aw, come on, girl. Maybe we can ‘stick’ in front of LaShawn or somebody. If we get caught, all they’ll do is put us at the end of the line and we’d be no worse off than we are now .. . Hey, Mike! Where’re you going in such a hurry?” “Yo! Didn’t you hear the P.A., Mattie?

Repairs on the lightning-plagued intercom continued into the new school year. Fe Baltouw GETTING LONGER BY THE MINUTE, the first half Lasseter lunch line snakes its way down the main hall. Mrs. Kathleen Wheeler, teacher on lunch duty, keeps order. Faculty members are assigned duty respon- sibilities in hallways, outside, or in the lunchroom areas for at least twenty minutes of their lunch period. We te MASS CONFUSION SEEMS NOR- MAL in Lasseter hallways as students scatter in every direction on their way from supervision to second period. Mrs. Gladys Barnes, a custodian, waits for the halls to clear. A school enroll- ment of nearly 1,300 sometimes made class break chaotic. MS. ELEANOR TAYLOR, ad- ministrative intern, searches the com- puter memory for the number of times senior Joe Trigger (center) has been late to school as two buddies, senior Leonard Pitts and sophomore Greg Fields, look on. The computer record of tardies and disciplinary notices made ‘sliding by’ a little tougher. 7 BANNERS TO BOOST SCHOOL SPIRIT are just one aspect of the Spirit Club’s responsibilities. Adviser Kathi Tyson puts the last bit of tape on the Therrell banner. SHOWING THAT RAIDER TEAM SPIRIT, Ikiea Battle, DeWayne Gray, William DeShazer, Michael Towles, and Lorenzo Anderson remind us that Northeast is tops with them. MASTERING PHYSICAL SCIENCE sometimes takes some extra work one- on-one. Mrs. Gail Lewis, science in- structor, re-explains a concept to junior LaShonda Taylor in a quick mo- ment after class. Students find that most faculty members welcome ques- tions when students aren’t sure they understand. CONCENTRATING ON THE CADENCE, drummer Dexter Miller sweats out the final moments of the sneak preview show for family, facul- ty, and friends, which capped off sum- mer band camp. Band members lived in tents for a week at Camp Benjamin Hawkins. m so mad, Patti, I can hardly see straight!” “What in the world is the matter with you, Eric?” “You didn’t see the paper this morning?” “Nope, sure didn’t. Why? What was in it?” “Oh, there was just another article in there that put Northeast down... again!” “That’s just great! What now?” “One of our rowdies got harassed for loitering. As usual, the reporter went out of his way to connect him with Northeast — even though he hasn’t been in school in over a year and the incident had nothing to do with school!” “Oh, man. That just makes me sick! There really aren ’t that many teen hangouts around here.” “Yeah, Patti — we’re never gonna break that bad image no matter what we do.” “Why don‘t they write about the good things over here — the blood drives and all the community pro- jects the vocational clubs do! We can’t be all bad!” “And what about groups like DECA, the Academic Bowl team, the band, the publications that win all kinds of competitions! The Telegraph does a decent job on covering Northeast sports, I guess, as long as you are just talking about the boys’ teams. They never give our girls’ basketball or track teams the coverage they deserve. Usually, the stuff on them is at the end of the story on the boys. With as many championships as they’ve won, they deserve more than that! “Another thing — Patti. Everybody puts us down because we’re the smallest public school. That just means we know each other better.” “That’s straight! I love Northeast. I think we’ve got a great student body and a faculty that cares about us as people.” “Good times at Northeast — that’s the best kept secret in town! We can’t wait for Macon to discover the truth, because most people have already made up their minds without knowing the facts.

Held during sixth period for Central football game, the pep rally climaxed with the announce- ment that the seniors had won the spirit chain contest sponsored by DECA. ¥ LINED UP ALONG THE BREEZEWAY, the long yellow line of school buses begins to fill as students spill from the buildings. Some eighty percent of the students ride the twenty-five buses which serve the senior high campus, several of them carrying multiple loads. IN THE WARMTH OF THE SUN of late September, two seniors, Jackie Brown and Rick Cornelius, enjoy a relaxed moment under the breezeway during lunchbreak. STUDENT LIFE “Make the best out of it. You'll live this time only once.”’ Basil Freeman Senior “High school could be a lit- tle more fun if students made it that way.”’ Shanel Bobo unior “High school is a good place to start seeing the reality of the world.”’ Kenneth Wilder Sophomore “TI love high school. Just to hear that I’m finally in high school gives me a chill.’’ Ann Solomon Freshman “High school is great. But we have some 30% of the stu- dent body who are immature and have no idea what they come to school for. They think that this is only a place to play, dance, and socialize.” Mr. Fred Persley Science teacher Student Life ———— The coming of August meant it was Back to the routine Ring, ring! It’s time to get back to the ol’ school routine. For returning students, it wasn’t too hard. Junior Lisa Flagg said, “I had no trouble at all finding my classes, because I’ve been here for three years.” For some others, it might not be so easy. Sophomore Kim Watkins said, “I had trouble finding my P.E. class because my schedule had a room number for it instead of ‘the gym.” Students coming back to school found a new emphasis on tar- diness. After being late to school three times, students were assigned major detention. That meant no more lame excuses like oversleep- ing, being bus-left, having a flat FRESHMAN CARLENE WILSON HURRIES TO CLASS while three other freshman--Scott Tisdale, Kelly Marsh, and Clay Connell — take time to cut the fool. tire, etc. Also, beginning with this year, students must pass five classes to remain eligible for interscholastic sports. Students got a big scare about the grading scale as well. For ap- proximately the first nine weeks, the grade scale was A=94-100, B=85-93, C=75-84, D=70-74, and F=69 and under. This was the result of both a state ruling and a local decision. The state decision was that all school systems must use 70 as the passing score. The redistribution of the grades above 70 was up to the local boards of education. — continued on page 11 ie.

Back to the routine — — Continued from page 8 In the September board meeting, there was enough pressure from parents and students to cause board members to reject the plan in operation since the beginning of school. In the October meeting, a new plan was ap- proved which simply dropped the D, and returned A, B, and C to their original numerical values. Bus schedules had also changed since last year. Students new to the senior high weren’t the only ones getting up earlier. Junior Pamela Turner said, “‘I used to ride the bus at 7:25, but now it comes earlier and at a different place. I don’t like that because I may not be able to make it to the bus stop.” Freshman Tanya Goolsby said, ‘‘My bus came on time the first day but after that it started coming ten minutes later, but I don’t mind that.” Getting back into the routine also means the opportunity of making special friends and participating in school clubs and sports, but some students E SOPHOMORE JEFF FOWLER and junior Randy Gillis monkey around during lunch. : i 4 ” and faculty members gave up summer time, too. Senior Talitha Sherman said, “I gave up some of my time for band practice and camp.” Sophomore Chris Peavy said, “I play golf for the school, so I had to practice all summer.”’ The general impression was that the juniors and seniors were back into the groove by the end of the second week, but for the sophomores, and especially the freshmen, it took a little longer. g@ | A S “i a, DOING A DOUBLETAKE, senior Der- rick Nash checks out the mini’s on juniors Tanzy Hughes and Yartease Davis. a ae School Begins MARSHA BOOKER, TERRENCE JENKINS, Roy Pitts, Consuela Alex- ander, and Alfred Bailey strike a casual pose in their oversized sweaters and shirts. TODD DEAN AND WINDY JENKINS show that denim is always in style. Felecia Cornelius wears a jumper with the overalls look, while Sean Walker wears the real thing. WEARING THE SEASON’S BRIGHTEST primary colors are Felecia Cornelius, Charlene Smith, — Greg Milner, Tanya Brown, and Helen Harden. Students go to great lengths to Step out in fashionable style There are a number of different f ashion styles at Northeast, some copied from others, some originally created, but most are a mix of original ideas with what others are doing. Namebrands are still hot, but there is a difference in how they are being worn. Gucci shirts, for example. It used to be that people would buy several of them in dif- ferent colors and wear them in ex- actly the same way. Now students buy one and exert their creativity in finding as many ways to wear it as possible. Other hot names are I.0.U., Guess, Union Bay, Levi, Badge 58, Jordache, Sassoon, and Reebok. To most people, namebrands are important. Sop homore Helen Harden said, ‘““Namebrands make a CONSERVATIVELY CASUAL OR SUNDAY FANCY, Todd Dean, Tyrone and Daniel Zeigler show that blazers can be worn with just about anything. difference because the clothing lasts longer and fit better than no- name clothes.” Ms. Pamela Brown, English teacher, said, “The name tells me that the general quality of the out- fit and fabric is pretty good.” Junior Tammy Palmer doesn’t think the namebrand clothing is worth the extra money. She said, “The only difference in clothes is the name. If there wasn’t the name, all clothes would be the same.” Do students compete in what they wear? Why not? They com- pete in athletics and academics, why not in appearance? Junior Cathy Smith said, “My best friend is Heather Land, and she is my best competition.” “T find the most competition with other girls who have jobs and ONE OF THE SEASON’S HOTTEST LOOKS is plaids, the bolder the better. — Ross, Reginald Jones, Alfred Bailey, = Calvin Watkins, DeWayne Gray, and Daniel Zeigler show a variety of plaid looks. dress nice,” said senior Chiquita Reid. Where do Northeast students shop? The majority of the girls say they shop at Body Shop, Contem- po Casuals, the Limited, Ups ’n’ Downs, and Macy’s — all found in the Macon Mall and the Crate on Riverside Drive. The guys shop at Chess King, County Seat, Macy’s and J. Riggins at the Mall, and at Rich’s in Atlanta. Sophomore Chris Veal said, “Where you shop does matter because different department stores have a different quality of clothes.” Mrs. Judy Fultz, an English teacher, said, “If a store sells what I like and I can afford it, I’ll buy it, even if it’s at a small store.” Fashion SOPHOMORE CHARLIE ROOKS and freshman William Blevins temporarily ignore their friends to share a personal joke. al ) MAKING WEEKEND PLANS during class change are sophomore LaRisa Hollins and senior Mark Mitcham. iT Dating alone or in a crowd is just Being with someone Dating — that important part of a teenager’s life in which he looks for characteristics he might want in a life partner — has changed much in the last few years, accor- ding to an informal poll. Yesterday, it was meeting a bunch of friends at the drive-in. Today it’s going with the person you like to a park or just somewhere to be alone. More couples today prefer being together alone than being in a crowd. Junior Aimee Spires said, “I just want to be with my boyfriend and talk about the things that are im- portant to both of us.” Senior Mark Cook said, “Going out and having a good time with the person I love is the perfect date for me.” More couples are talking and entertaining each other rather than, say, going to a movie and be- ing entertained. Steady dating appears to be the rule at Northeast these days. Sophomore Tina Pitts said, “Steady dating is the only way to have a relationship.” Special Junior Tammy Rudin said, “Dating is sharing my feelings with someone I love.” Sophomore James Manson has even bigger goals for dating. He said, “Dating is the process of beginning to be married.” Of course, some students said they didn’t want to be tied down, and for them, going steady was out of the question. Sophomore Lisa Glover explain- ed, “You're only young once and should live it up while you can.” JUNIOR KELVIN HAMMONDS TELLS junior Yartease Davis why she should go to the game with him this weekend. | | MEETING AT THEIR LOCKER, junior Henry Payne and sophomore Tracie Dixon take a little time for themselves as they prepare for class.

Balancing school, social life, and jobs worth it for Making the big bucks Balancing a parttime job with your social life and school life is like going without Reeboks and pizza for a year, but Northeast students can handle it. From McDonald’s to an army surplus store, students are making the bucks. For what, you may ask? Well, ac- cording to an informal poll, most juniors and seniors are putting their money towards college and cars, while sophomores and freshmen who work are spending their money on clothes and entertainment. Choosing a job can be a difficult situation. Most people try to find a job that they like, but sometimes it isn’t that easy. Sometimes RODERICK SOLOMON, A SENIOR, packs Chicken McNuggets at McDonald’s. teenagers have to take the job that will take them. Junior Henry Payne, who works at Shoney’s, said, “I chose my job because they were the only ones who would hire me.” While most students have jobs in fast food restaurants or as clerks in department stores, some find unusual jobs. Senior Kim McDowell works at the Shurling Library “because it’s pleasant, and I can learn a lot.” Senior Kim Williams, who works at the Eastview Nursing Home, said, “I enjoy working with old people.” Sometimes there is an effect of the different days and hours of work on the student’s school and SENIOR LISA DIXON RINGS up the groceries at Piggly Wiggly. so cial life. Junior Lisa Flagg, who works with Shellvins, said, “My hours haven’t affected my schoolwork because I get off at a sensible time.” Senior Al Scott, who works at Little Caesar’s, has more of a pro- blem. He said, “I sometimes only get two or three hours of sleep because of my late hours.” Starting a new job is a new ex- perience for many. Sophomore Marsha Booker said, “I thought that it would be hard but I enjoy my work which makes it easier.” Junior Tonya Drewry, who works at the Army Surplus Store, said, “Working to me is more than a job; it’s an adventure.” SY ¥ £4.422-4 ISRAEL ORR, A SENIOR, prices a new shipment of eggs at Piggly Wiggly.

The lunchrooms start cooking at 8 a.m., and it takes two and a half to three hours to prepare the nor- mal lunch for an average of 760- 800 students per day. With so much food to prepare, it takes ten fulltime cafeteria workers.

To give each of 276 students half an orange takes 138 oranges. To feed 480 students a slice, it takes five huge boxes of pizza.

Difficulty in ex- pressing what’s happening within them translates into difficulty in communicating with others, especially parents. The most common parent teen problem is what teenagers perceive as overprotectiveness. “What really bothers me is the way she keeps asking so many questions ab out everything — like when I am on the phone or talking to one of my sisters,” said LaTrice Riggins, a freshman. “What really bothers me about parents is that they don’t trust me. They feel insecure about me going out with friends. They always ask who they are and where we’re go- ing,” said Scherryl Miller, a sophomore. Sophomore Chernise Hoges said, “Their attitude . oe il | ib ’ SOPHOMORE ARIS LUCAS TRIES TO COME UP with a new excuse to keep from getting into big trouble with her parents. bothers me. They never listen long enough to understand. They always have to answer without having heard me out.” “It’s not that they are strict and overprotective. They want the best for me, and they don’t want me to get hurt. All they are trying to do is show their undying love for me,” said Alicia Rhodes, a junior. Teenagers are generally predic- table about what they would change in their relationship to their parents. “Td have them give me more money,” said freshman Clay Connell. “Quit treating me like a baby,” said senior Walter Solomon. “What I want is fairness, no punishment, my own telephone line, an allowance, and my curfew extended,” said freshman Tina Hazel.

Handling Parents Sharing the best and the worst takes Avery best friend A best friend is someone special. Junior Audrey Watson said, “A best friend is someone who listens and tries to encourage you to do right. Best friends are very impor- tant because they let you in when everybody else puts you out.” Audrey found kindness and understanding, what she considers the two most important qualities, four years ago in Tijuana Hillman, another junior. Freshman Priscilla Howard’s best friend is senior Cathy Rogel. They met at the Lakeview Club Apartments. Priscilla said, “A best friend is a person you trust more than all of your other friends. You can tell her anything, and it will be kept between the two of you.” “My best friend, Bonnie Tribble, is someone I can rely on at all times. I can talk to her about anything,” said senior Summer Best Friends Bledsoe. “To make sure the rela- tionship survives tough moments, you just have to take one step at a time to work things out. Our toughest time was when a certain person came to Macon to live and tried to come between us.” Freshman Donna Tisdale’s best friend is Mandy Ward, another freshman. Donna said, “We get along great, but when we do fight or fuss, it makes us stronger for harder times and makes our love for each other grow.” Jeff Fowler has been best friends with fellow sophomore Chris Peavy for two years. He said, “We talk things out, and we make them work. When Chris’s aunt died, I was there for him because I knew how it felt. When I had problems with my girlfriend, he helped me with them. I love Chris as a brother.” SHARING THE DIFFICULTIES OF THE FRESHMAN YEAR, Denise Sem- melink and Michelle Durden find it— some trick they pulled on another—— easier to cope.

Secrets that we know and share, never to be spoken again, just to show that we care. If you ever need a guide, to help you see the light, I'll be there by your side, just to make things right, and you the same for me. Here for each other, through the good and bad. Whether you're smiling or crying, I'll try to make you happy instead of sad, for friends like you are hard to find. If your world falls apart, and there’s nothing left, but the breaking of your heart, And if you’re feeling blue just remember that I love you. Yes, friends forever, that’s what we'll be.

Monday was Kiddie Day and Hair Roller Day. Tuesday, easily the most popular day, was Nerd Day and Hobo Day. Wednesday was Dress-up Day. Thursday, originally scheduled as Opposite Sex Day and Toga Day, at the last moment became Backwards Day and Celebrity Day. Friday, the day of the game, was Jersey Day and School Color Day. Senior Harold Johnson said, “It was fun dressing up in something that is comfortable so that you don’t have to be concerned about your appearance.

Sophomore Aris Lucas said, “I opened up this Homecoming and so did my friends. I never thought I would go to the game, but I did. I’ve never had so much fun.” “Hey, I wasn’t gonna dress,” said Jerel Washington, a sophomore, “but I was going to enjoy myself, so I went.” The final score of the game did little to warm up the crowd as the Raiders fell 6-27.

The blood drive was co-sponsored by the local chapter of the American Red Cross and eighteen student volunteers. Mrs. Gwynneth Lamon, faculty adviser, said, “I think it was a good team effort. We had a lot of success with the students donating. The drive was a lot more successful than last year’s.” Students and faculty members involved had varied reactions. Junior Randy Gillis said, “The part I liked best was drinking the Kool-Aid and eating the cookies. Taking the blood wasn’t anything.” Mrs. Mary Landrum, art teacher, said, “I feel like I am help- ing somebody because blood can be used in so many ways. Mine is O- positive, which is most needed.

Four seniors are planning medical careers. Jacqueline Hill wants to go to medical school after attending Auburn or Emory, as does Andre Bobo, after attending Clemson or USC. Audrey Harris wants a career in nursing, although she is undecided on the college. Andrea McCarthy will major in physical therapy at Georgia State University. Four more have science in their future. Alvin Harmon plans to ma- jor in chemistry at Morehouse; Angela Spann, in computer science at Mercer University; Rosalyn Wiley, in chemical engineering at Tuskegee University; and Joel Jenkins, in electrical engineering at MIT, Harvard, or Georgia Tech. Joel is also considering a career in law. Windy Jenkins is headed for a career in broadcast journalism after attending the University of Georgia. Jacquita White and Brian Smith are considering their options in the military. Jacquita wants to be a career Air Force pilot; Brian is in- terested in the Army or the Air Force, and ultimately a doctorate in business administration.

The best we all can do is live by our own values and strive to be the best we can be.” — Barbara Billingslea. “Continue to work hard through your senior year. Don’t relax just because you are a senior.” — Andre Bobo. “Strive for the best, but don’t mix play with work. Realize that a small amount of studying can give you better-than-average grades.” — Alvin Harmon. “Believe in yourself. Strive to be the best that you know you can be. Remember, nothing good comes easy.” — Audrey Har- ris. “Never think of failure as defeat. Think of it more as knowledge acquired and as an experience in life that will make you a stronger and wiser person.” — Tracey Hawkins. “Never say never. No matter what kind of NEE Superlatives predicament you find yourself in, never give up. Never assume anything; for who knows what tomorrow will bring.” — Jacqueline Hill. “Never give up the struggle to become the best that you can be. Always remember what your priorities are.” — Joel Jenkins. “Keep on track. In the end, you'll be glad you did.” — Windy Jenkins. “Make God the focal point of your life, and success will follow.” — Andrea Mc- Carthy. “Strive for the very best. I can tell you from experience that hard work and study- ing does pay off. Who knows? When you're a senior. you may be a Senior Superlative.” — Geraldine McGirt. “Get involved, work hard, and try to be the best person you can be, giving 110 per- cent. Most of all, put God first. He is all it takes.” — Chiquita Roberts. “I would like to advise the upcoming seniors first to realize that they are seniors, and they should act accordingly. The se- cond thing is that being a senior is not inex- ing to the business world. Kim Williams and Barbara Billingslea want to major in accounting, as does Geraldine McGirt, who plans to be a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) after attending either the University of Georgia or Georgia College. Sabrina Wright wants to major in busi ness administration at Howard University. Tracey Hawkins plans to major in business at Georgia State to prepare to be a marketing expert or a business merchandiser. Chiquita Roberts is undecided between Valdosta State College and Fort Valley State College and between career choices of educa- tion and business. pensive, so they should have a job or else a lot of money. Seriously, they should really be prepared for what lies ahead, and they should take everything seriously from the start.” — Brian Smith. “Work hard and take your schoolwork seriously because, in the end, it will pay off.” — Angela Spann. “Have faith in yourself and in God. Obey your parents, because without them, you wouldn’t exist. Don’t get involved in drugs because they will hamper your develop- ment.” — Jacquita White. “Strive for excellence in your every endeavor. Don’t let anything stand in the way of your education or your new success. Never say that ‘you can’t.’ Carry yourself as far as you can in life. Most importantly, believe in God.” — Rosalyn Wiley. “Do your best in all your subjects. In the end, all your hard work will pay off.” — Kimberly Williams. “Decide upon a career goal and take courses which apply or will be helpful to your career.” — Sabrina Wright. WEE Superlatives INE , Honoring Martin Luther King, Jr. means Living the dream au joined and uplifted hands, singing “We Shall Overcome,” the faculty, staff, and student body dramatically symbolized the very spirit of keeping alive the dream of the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The special assembly program titled “Living the Dream,” organiz- ed by the Student Council, featured the talents of the band, the chorus, the show choir, and a number of Student Council members. Individuals on the program in- cluded Jacqueline Hill, Andre Bobo, Carla Fults, Nathaniel Snead, Windy Jenkins, Cynthia Brown, and Delphia Boynton. Although students, in general, were disappointed that the first national holiday in honor of the late Dr. King was not a school holi- day, at least the commemoration of the holiday with an assembly pro- gram made the day special. Sophomore Charlena Williams said, “The program was very touching. It really was a very emo- tional event.” Junior John Wiggins said, “The program was full of warm feelings and increased my beliefs.” The 1987-88 school calendar for Bibb County Schools will include a school holiday in honor of the late Dr. King.

They’re wrong. Cheerleading is more athletic than most people guess. With- out hours and hours of practice time, they couldn’t perform strenuous, difficult, and dan- gerous stunts and pyramids. They practice during the sum- mer; and they train and prac- tice through two athletic sea- sons. “There’s more to cheerlead- ing than just looking good out there,” said Mrs. Billy Allen, ninth grade and B-team cheer- leading sponsor. “This is a sport, and we work like the oth- er athletes.” There’s more to cheerleading than the specific skills, howev- er. “It’s hard to keep the crowd’s spirit level high and keep on cheering when the team has a losing record. Junior co-captain Shanel Bobo said, “It’s not easy to keep cheering when the team is losing, but if we don’t try to spark the crowd to back the players, who will? It’s very frus- trating at times.” How important are the c heerleaders? Other students see a need for them. Senior Kenneth Sanders said, “The cheerleaders inspire the teams to win and help build up the momentum for the crowd.” Even though the state’s QBE ruling is that all athletes must pass five of six classes, Mrs. Clara Hollins, the adviser, in- sists that her cheerleaders pass all six classes to cheer. Sophomore Cynthia Cruz said. “That rule is hard, but it also makes our cheerleaders work harder. I believe if you work hard and study more, you can pass all six classes.” Because there are games eve- ry Friday, and on Tuesdays and Saturdays during basketball , and because when there isn’t a game, they still practice for 2-3 hours, getting the lessons done isn’t that easy. Junior Kim Williams said, “We stay up late hours at night doing homework and studying for tests. I myself don’t get very much sleep, but it’s worth it.” Chiquita Roberts, varsity captain, said, ““This year’s team seems to be more spirited than ever.” ANOTHER RESPONSIBILI- TY FOR CHEERLEADERS is to create spirit banners for the stadium or in the gym.

Since the crowds are small to non-existent, the subvarsity team members participate less for the roar of the crowd than for the love of the game and for a spot on the varsity in the future. B-team, Ninth Grade Foot- ball Head B-team Coach Charlie Simmons praised the defense as the principal factor in the 3-1 sea- son finish for the Raiders. Junior Antonia Davis and sophomore Jeff Wiggins were named the most valuable players. Davis is a quarterback and de- fensive back; Wiggins, a running back and defensive back. The ninth graders suffered through a disastrous season in which they lost all six of their games. B-team Basketball The B-teams had mediocre sea- sons in which they lost about as many games as they won. While they weren't happy about the sea- sons, some had personal satisfac- tion and hopes for the future. Guard Roderick Finney said, oe : a = RAIDERETTES REACH FOR THE REBOUND in a B- team game against Southwest in the Macon Coliseum. B-TEAM FOOTBALL PLAY- ERS LISTEN as Coach Char- lie Simmons explains what they need to do against War- ner Robins. “To start, you have to be good. Since I want to play varsity, I have to do my best. It’s a goal I’ve set for myself that I hope to achieve.” Forward Katrina Thomas said, “T know I tried hard, and that is important to me. Coach Daniely is something special. It’s not eve- ry day that you find an under- standing coach willing to push you a step forward. It was fun.” Elvin Stewart was named most valuable player for the boys’ B- team; Michael Bond, best offen- sive player; Rodney Moore, best defensive player. Monita O’Neal was named most valuable player for the girls’ B-team; Yolanda Chester, coach- es’ award; Linda Jackson, best de- fensive player. Ninth Grade Basketball Boys’ Coach Festus Edoimioya said, “There’s a lot ot talent and potential on this team, but we were taken right out of our of- fense and we lacked a few skills on defense.” The coach named Alvin Clyde as the best offensive player and Nickey Zellner, best defensive player. Coach Edoimioya said, “It’s important to have students sup- porting our basketball teams. This would enable the players to play better.” Girls’ Coach Judy Whitaker named Sabrina Brown and Ka- tina Shannon as best offensive players, and Kim Brezial and LaTanya Guyton, best defensive players. Of the lack of spectators, Coach Whitaker said, ‘““We need support. We would like to see more in- volvement. We go to the other schools and their students show up. When we don’t have a crowd at home, it looks bad for North east.” B-team Wrestling B-team wrestlers were unde- feated. Fred Brown, who went 10-1 in the 155-lb. weight class, said, “B- team wrestling prepares you for the varsity. It improves your quickness and your physical health. It gives you a feeling of being on the mat for a good time.” (Please see SUBVARSITY, page 36) MICHAEL BOND (22) IS TOO LATE TO BLOCK A SHOT from a Southwest play- er in a B-team game. 1457 a 50 26 - eur B-TEAM FOOTBALL Front Row: Greg Milner, Jeff Wiggins, Ramon Gordon, Stu- art Nelson, Darrell Brown, Dewayne Williams, Earnest Lowe; Row 2: Alfred Hazel, NINTH GRADE FOOTBALL — Front Row: Kemonii Pol- lock, Larry Morgan, Wade Marks, James Sims, Jimmy Bowers, Dontia White, David Flagg, Harold Crafter; Row 2: B-TEAM BOYS’ BASKET- BALL — Front Row: Chris Linder, Rodney Moore, Quen- tin Jackson, Jamie Thomas, + 31 oe z need Reeves, Alex Burkett, Ron Pitts, David Clowers, George Wilson, Shayne Pace, David Taylor; Back Row: Coach Charlie Simmons, Antonia Davis, Ty- Carlton Willie Evans, Roberto Wash- ington, Royce Brown, Andre Davis, Stacey Baldwin, Jerry Butler, Augustus Fuller, Mi- chael Cleveland, Michael Poole; Back Row: Coach Wal- Chris Veal; Row 2: Roderick Finney, Alfred Hazel, Jerome Alexander, Ernest McCrary, Michael Bond, Frank Ross, rone Hill, Stoney Johnson, Lorren Harris, Fredrick Brown, Dexter Street, Frank Howard. ter Daniely, Roy Pitts, Marlon Fair, Keith Pitts, Der- rick Griswald, Keith Martin, Vernon Jordan, Paul Gibson, Terry Butler, Sebastian Jack- son, Coach Willie Street.

We really seem like a big family.

Athletes face tougher requirements The Texas “no pass, no play” law made its influence felt in Georgia as Quality Basic Education (QBE) reforms continued to dominate the education scene in Georgia. With the beginning of the 1986-87 school year, all athletes were required to pass five of their six classes each grading period to remain eligible for interscho- lastic sports. Stronger local grade system rejected Strong protest from parents and stu- dents led the Bibb County Board of Ed- ucation to reject a grade scale proposed by the school superintendent and his staff. Originally, Dr. Thomas Hagler had proposed that the Bibb County grading scale be distributed as follows: A=94-100; B=85-93; C=75-84; D=70-74; F=69 and under. The change came about when the state mandated last spring that a state passing score be set at 70. Parents and students who objected to the new scale did so for a variety of reasons. Some felt that it was unfair to the seniors to change the scale on them just when they were competing to be admitted into college. Others felt that the cut-off score to make an A was sim- ply too high. In any case, the school board voted to reject the proposed scale. In a later meeting, the board accepted a revised scale which returned the top three grades to 1985-86 point values (A=90- 100; B=80-89; C=70-79) and simply dropped the D altogether. Ex-Appling teacher wins board seat Dr. Doris Adams, Democratic victor in the Post 7 School Board race, became the newest member of the Bibb County Board of Education. Dr. Adams defeated Republican can- didate Ben Hinson in the November election. Dr. Adams was on the original faculty of Appling High School. Her son, Chador L. Adams, is a graduate of Mark Smith High School. Dr. Adams is originally from North Carolina where she attended high school and college and received her degrees (a bachelor’s and master’s degree in Eng- lish, and a doctorate in education). One of Dr. Adams’ dreams for Bibb County Schools is more parental in- volvement. She said, “I would like to see more parents getting involved in their child’s education.” Board president retires in December Bibb County Schools said goodbye in December to a trusted leader when Mr. William S. Hutchings retired from the Board of Education after 17 years of service. Mr. Hutchings, father of seven chil- dren (all of whom graduated from Northeast), was originally appointed to the board in 1969 by then Mayor Ronnie Thompson. At that time, the only other black member on the self-perpetuating board was Dr. D. T. Watson. When the board became an elected body in 1974, Mr. Hutchings was elected to a countywide seat in the first of what would be the maximum three terms. He served as president in his final term. His leadership was characterized by an intense desire to provide the very best for every child in the county and by an IN¢ 3 County Administration amazing ability to accomplish remark- able things. A quiet and thoughtful man by nature, Mr. Hutchings was a valuable friend to Bibb County education. Southwest High to be split in half The Board of Education approved a plan to create a fourth county high school by splitting the 3000+ Southwest student body. The plan specified that the new Southeast High School would be housed (after renovation) in the building cur- rently known as Ballard B Middle School, and that it would be scheduled to open in the fall of 1988-89. During that first year, only students in grades 9-11 in the new district would attend Southeast; seniors would continue to attend South- west. Despite the lack of a senior class, the school will provide a full curriculum and offer all interscholastic sports in its first year. The board later announced that Ms. Anne Hadarits would be the complex principal. Faculty members from South- west will be given the opportunity to request transfers to the new school. Fifth high school possible Following a statement by the Greater Macon Chamber of Commerce of their support for an additional high school in rapidly-growing northwest Bibb County, the Bibb County Board of Education voted to include the option in a five-year feasibility study. While the idea obviously appealed to some board members, others indicated reluctance. The local leadership of the NAACP voiced concern that the action would be discriminatory and favor a spe- cific group. The discussion was expected to con- tinue when the feasibility study was completed. WEARING FULL ACADEMIC GARB, Dr. Thomas Hagler speaks during the Northeast graduation exercises. DR. HAGLER LISTENS TO THE CON- CERNS of the Northeast faculty during his traditional question and answer meeting with the teachers. OF PARTICULAR INTEREST TO NORTH- EAST were the election of Dr. Doris Adams to and the retirement of Mr. William S. Hutchings from the Bibb County Board of Education.

Nic a2 County Administration INGE: ONE OF THE FIRST GROUP of adminis- trative assistants in a special countywide program, Ms. Eleanor Taylor came to North- east from Southwest. KEEPING UP WITH PROFESSIONAL LIT- ERATURE helps an administrator find new ideas and strategies. Mr. Raymond Hughes, assistant principal for the Mark Smith build- ing, catches up on his reading. MANAGING THE FACULTIES IN THREE BUILDINGS takes a good administrator. Mrs. L. W. Wimberly, Lasseter building prin- cipal, fulfilled that additional responsibility for most of the school year. Northeast Administ PAPERWORK IS A BIG PART of being the complex principal. Dr. G. Milton Dunaway was reinstated to the top administrative post at Northeast in late spring. CREATING A SYSTEM FOR MANAGING “TARDIES” was one of the duties of the Las. seter administrators. Ms. Lucile Hunter, assis. tant principal, rolls off a pass from the printer while Ms. Eleanor Taylor, administrative in- tern, enters data on the next student. GREETING VISITORS TO THE SCHOOL is one of the pleasant tasks of being an ad- ministrator for Mr. William Grant, vocation- al supervisor. . o po 4 ODLMF A new way of looking at things Administrative changes, countywide pilot programs, new schoolwide programs Changes in administrative staff, par- ticipation in a countywide pilot pro- gram, and creation of several at school made the school year distinctive. Mrs. Wimberly, acting complex principal until spring Mrs. L. W. Wimberly, Lasseter build- ing principal, began the year as acting complex principal due to the absence of Dr. G. Milton Dunaway. Dr. Dunaway, who was removed as principal the year before in an eligibility fracas, was pur- suing appeals to that decision. Mr. Raymond Hughes, assistant prin- cipal for the Smith building, became act- ing principal for that building, pending the final decision concerning Dr. Dunaway’s case. When Dr. Dunaway finally won the case, he resumed his title as the North- east complex principal, and all other ad- ministrators went back to their original positions. Ms. Taylor member of pilot program Ms. Eleanor Taylor, administrative intern assigned to the Lasseter building, Was a sort of split personality. She spent half her day at Northeast as an admin- istrative intern, then hurried across town to Southwest where she taught tenth grade English classes for half a day. Ms. Taylor was a member of the pilot program designed to train teachers in administrative skills to create a pool of qualified personnel to be available when administrative vacancies occur. A teacher of 15 years experience, Ms. Taylor said, “I wouldn’t change any- thing about Northeast. The teachers and students are good, and they respond. That pleases me. I do wish everyone would wear school colors on game days.” When not at school, Ms. Taylor spends her time reading, snow skiing, and exercising. Student tutorial program begins Based on the knowledge that students sometimes learn better from other stu- dents, Mrs. Wimberly initiated the Suc- cess Express tutorial system. Each academic department was in- structed to organize a peer tutoring framework in which the more able stu- dents in each class were given the op- portunity to work with classmates who were having difficulty. Student peers were supposed to work with their part- ners during classtime and any other time they could get together, such as before school, at lunch, or after school. Parents pick up report cards At the end of winter quarter, North- east experimented with a new system of distributing report cards. Parents were requested to come to the school, pick up the report card from the supervision teacher, and talk with the subject matter teachers. Mrs. Wimberly even arranged for school buses to ride regular routes and pick up parents who had no transportation. Parents of nearly two thirds of the student body complied with the request on the specified night. Still more parents who were unable to come that night filtered in gradually over the next few days. Student apprehension about parents and teachers getting together generally proved unfounded. The administration and faculty were pleased by the response and planned to include the system in the future. Northeast Adminstration MRS. GLORIA AARON: SED. MRS.

It all started with a little spirit button sale by the Spirit Club. The button read, “T’m a teacher at Northeast and proud of SPORTING THEIR NEW GAME-DAY LOOK, faculty members like Mrs. Kathi Tyson, Ms. Rita Long, and Mr. Thurnell Johnson, all math teachers, enjoy boosting school spirit. it!” Soon, administrators, secretaries, counselors, and other classifications that weren’t really “teachers” clamored for buttons of their own. The buttons were so successful that a T-shirt drive fol- lowed. Faculty members wore their buttons — } IN¢4E2 Faculty and Staff (Aa and shirts to school, to athletic events, and in the community.

There were, as always, a few new fac- es. In addition, some new faculty mem- bers were not really new at all; one was returning to Northeast after being as- signed to another school in the mean- time; two others had simply come up from the middle school with this year’s ninth graders. Most confusing of all, four familiar faces were in unfami liar places, due mostly to the loss of some vocational courses. Teachers brand new to Northeast in- cluded Mr. Gregory Williams, Ms. Tonia Schofield, Mrs. Dawn Garand, Mrs. Di- ane Dempsey, Mr. Samuel Antwi, Mrs. Georgann Reaves, and Mr. Samuel Rountree. Mr. Williams taught industrial arts. He said, “What surprises me is how well students act and how nice this school is.” Mr. Williams had been teaching for four years and came to Northeast from Re- becca Comer Middle School. His hobbies were sports, reading, and woodworking. Ms. Schofield taught pre-technical in- dustrial arts. A graduate of Tuskegee Institute, Ms. Schofield had taught one year. Her hobbies were painting, trav- eling, and sports. Mrs. Garand came to Northeast as a first-year teacher. Last year she was a student teacher at Central. She com- pleted her college work at Mercer Uni- versity. She said, “I am impressed that everyone is so well behaved.” Her hob- bies were singing, taking care of chil- dren, and reading. Mrs. Dempsey, who came from Barden Elementary School, taught spe- cial education. This was her third year in Bibb County. “I like Northeast very Faculty and Staff much. Its students and teachers are working hard to make it an even better school. What surprises me is how well everyone gets along together.” she said. Mrs. Demspey’s hobbies were reading, golf, and sports. Mr. Antwi was the new transportation class teacher. Formerly a teacher in the Bahamas, Mr. Antwi had fourteen years of experience and a degree from South London Technical College. His hobbies were football, soccer, and reading. Mr. Antwi said that the thing that most sur- prised him was how clean the school was. With 19 years of experience at schools in Georgia and Mississippi, including Southwest and most recently Stratford Academy, Mrs. Reaves enjoyed reading, needlework and square dancing. She said, “I think I will like teaching at Northeast. The students and teachers have been very friendly and helpful dur- ing my first few days. Most of my stu- dents are cooperative.” “T am very proud to be a member of the faculty,” said Mr. Rountree, a sci- ence teacher who had taught previously at Douglas High in Macon County and Rumble Junior High in Houston Coun- ty. His hobbies included hunting, fish- ing, and other sports. A staff member new to Northeast was Mrs. Fae Montsdeoca, the complex sec- retary. Her hobbies were children, sing- ing, and church activities. She said, “We have a bunch of crazy kids here. I would like to change some student activities, and I wish I had a paddle of my own.” Returning to Northeast was Mrs. Berdia Felder, a counselor. She said, “Now that I’m back, it’s great to be here, because it’s like a home to me. There is only thing I would like to change: I would like to wave a magic wand that would allow every student to understand each sequence. I like Northeast because we have the prettiest campus in Macon. | The teachers and students and admin- | istration are warm and sensitive.” Mrs. | Felder was assigned to the Appling Mid- dle School last year. Also moving to the senior high cam- pus from the middle school were two math teachers, Mr. Dan Jolley and Mrs. | Kathi Tyson. Mr. Jolley said, “Northeast is the best school in Bibb County because of the student body, but we need more school spirit.” Mr. Jolley, who had taught for 19 years, enjoyed fishing, jazz, and reading. Mrs. Tyson said, “I feel like I’ve been a part of Northeast for many years be- | cause the Spirit Club has worked closely © with Appling. I really thought that it © would not be that much of a change for | me coming from Appling, but I forgot | that the students that I had previously would grow up so much. It has been interesting to see what kind of ‘young adults’ those ‘children’ I taught had be- | come.” Mrs. Tyson, who had taught nine © years, enjoyed reading and tennis. Familiar faces in new places included | Mrs. Gloria Aaron, Ms. Marilyn Sikes, Mrs. Gwendolyn Crafter, and Mrs. Ber- nice Williams. Mrs. Aaron, a band par- ent who had substituted often, now served as an aide in the special education | classes. Ms. Sikes, who had taught health and physical education, was now teaching science. Mrs. Crafter, who last | year had been teaching food service, was now the CVAE coordinator. Mrs. Wil- liams moved back to home economics from child care.

Not just a matter of knowledge Teachers, students agree that personality, methods are also important What, exactly, is a good teacher? Is it just knowing more about the subject than the students in the class? Or is there more to it than that? While every teacher who responded to the “good teaching” survey did indeed list subject matter knowledge as one of five most important characteristics, it wasn’t always listed first. Other characteristics listed by these teachers included factors relating to presentation style and personality traits, but nearly all of them also said that, above all else, teachers really want to teach. Mr. Thurnell Johnson, math teacher, listed command of the English language, a positive attitude, a love for people, and a big sense of humor in addition to knowledge of the subject as essential qualities of a good teacher. Mrs. Mary Alice Newberry, pre-tech instructor, included fairness, respect, concern, and love. Competence, tolerance, compassion, fairness, and a sense of humor are the most important qualities in good teach- ing to Mr. Riley Brown, Spanish teach- er. Mrs. Yvonne Gee, social studies teach- er, said that the characteristics she thought essential included caring about children, understanding, creativity, and never giving up. To really like young people and be unprejudiced; to believe in the potential of each student; to be able to laugh at yourself; and to be faithful, present, and punctual — these were the other major factors important to Mrs. Mary Lan- drum, art teacher. Students who responded to the survey also indicated that knowledge of the sub- ject was important to them, but they thought of a good teacher as a person, not just a dispenser of knowledge. Patience with students who are having trouble understanding and with those who are difficult to control seemed im- portant to a number of students. Junior Gary McCloud added under- standing, considerate, and thoughtful. Monica Sampson, a sophomore, stressed the importance of being interested in students, maintaining a friendly envi- ronment for students. Good teachers listed by the students in the survey included Mr. Leonard Searcy, Coach Walter Johnson, Mrs. Joyce Robinson, Coach Lamarr Sarter, Ms. Rita Long, Mrs. Kathleen Wheeler, Mrs. Maitland Hudson, Ms. Pam Brown, Mrs. Judy Fultz, Mrs. Juanita Floyd, Mrs. Gwendolyn Booker, Mrs. Gail Lewis, Mrs. Claudia Hutchings, Mrs. Carole Ford, Mrs. Kathi Tyson, Mr. Lewis Wright, Coach Fred Persley, Mrs. Tempest Turner, and Mrs. Joyce Simonton (a former Northeast teacher who substitutes often).

Occasionally, the habit is internal in nature. Sophomore Stacy Battle said, “My worst habit is letting people get on my nerves. This is a problem because it usually ends up in a fight.” Most of the time the habit is external and irritates others, like drumming TALKING WITH HER HANDS, freshman Kathy Clance tells her friend, Tammy Baker, also a freshman, the latest news. fingers on the desk.

Here at Northeast, whether one’s choice is “the fade,” “curls,” “tails,” or “waves,” getting a new hairstyle is the latest craze. Junior Gary McCloud described his hairstyle as “a semi-fade where there is nothing on the sides and hair on the top.” Junior Mychal Mills said, “My hairstyle is known as a high right, which is high on one side and low on the While sophomore Candida Finney had a different outlook on her hairstyle, she described it as being “an outrageous jeri-curl.”” Chernise Hoges, a sophomore, called her style a “mushroom.” There are several reasons why people choose their hairstyles. Sophomore Cynthia M. Brown said, “T chose my hairstyle because it was different.” SOPHOMORE JOANNA ROBINSON MODELS THE “TAIL” so popular with hairstyles of both races. Junior Arenella Flagg said, “My sister chose my hairstyle for me. She keeps it up for me because she is a beautician.” Most students weren’t planning an immediate change in their hairstyle since they hadn’t had their current style very long. A few others, however, were different. Junior Neil Adams said, “I have had my current style for two years.” Johnny Sapp, a junior, said, “I have had my hairstyle for a lifetime!” DEMONSTRATING A VARIETY OF HAIRSTYLES are Kara Hill, Ronald Green, Chanda Gordon, William Young, Tanya Brown, Reggie Jones, Lynn Veal, and Leonard Pitts.

Falling, public scoldings, loud arguments are tough to live down Although nearly everyone has been terribly embarrassed at one time or another sometime in his life, many students are reluctant to share the event, and most of them would rather forget it. An informal poll uncovered a few brave souls who were willing to tell the world about the time they “could have just died.” One common embarrassing moment has to do with public speaking. LaDaphne Glasco, a freshman, said, “At school I was to say a poem, but when I got in front of the class, I forgot the whole thing.” Another trouble spot had to do with conversations that got out of hand. Freshman Eugene Mahone said he was embarrassed by a teacher who “loud- talked me about my schoolwork.” Junior Chiquita McNair said she was embar- rassed by an argument with her ex- boyfriend in the Mall. Freshman Paul Gibson had the same experience with a girlfriend. Sometimes a person can be done in by not being aware of what’s going on around him. Junior Aimee Spires was at the skating rink and was singing to the music that was playing. “Suddenly,” she said, “this guy threw a quarter at me.” Dawn Parker, a freshman, said, “One day I was in Ms. Sikes’ classroom and went to sleep. When I woke up, everybody was looking at me. They said I was snoring real loud.” Dawn also talk- ed about a bad day at the recreation center. She said, “I was swimming and I had on a strapless swimming suit. When I jumped in the water, it came down, and a lot of people saw me too. It was kind of funny — after it happened.” Tania Reynolds, a freshman, tells a story that sounds like the typical welcome to freshmen on a senior high campus. She said, “Someone put me in the trash can outside the gym. I got stuck. Then everyone came out of the gym and laughed at me, because the only thing you could see was my feet sticking ”� up. The most common embarrasing mo- ment that turned up in the poll was fall- ing down. Freshman Antonio Baldwin said, “I was riding my bike and tried to do a jump. I landed on my head, and everyone was laughing.” “One day I was racing with my father at Central City Park, and I saw a good- looking guy,” said Dawn Gillis, another freshman. “ I fell. The good-looking guy laughed.” Australia Williams, a ninth grader, said, “I fell running into the classroom after the bell had sounded.” “T fell out of my desk,” said freshman Lisa Williams. The best “falling” stories, though, belong to two juniors. Junior Greg Blount said, “Once in the marathon I was looking behind me and ran into a van along the side. I had to get 14 stit- ches in my head, but I had to laugh.” Jimmie Duncan said, “I fell down the spiral steps at the Mall and almost knocked a lady into the fountain.” Sophomores (Holland-King) FRESHMAN NICOLE COOK AND SOPHOMORE CHRYSTALE WILSON try to decide what would be best to buy for their guys from the Chess King at the Mall. LOOKING FOR HER FAVORITE SONG, sophomore Aris Lucas thumbs through the disc section at the Record Bar. TAKING A BREAK FROM WALKING THE MALL, sophomore John Simmons chows down with a good friend, senior Lorenzo Dunlap, in the food court. Going their different ways: Kids head in many directions to amuse themselves after school on weekends. On the weekdays when the bell rings ar 2:15 p.m., Northeast students explode from their classes. Where do they go? Destinations differ, but most students are headed for after-school respon- sibilities or to catch the bus. Senior Katrina Bryant said, “I go to cheerleader practice after sixth period.” Sophomore Crystal Evans said, “I take the bus, go home, and do my homework.” “I go to work after school,” said junior Brian Moore. At least one other place to go is represented by sophomore Ronald Blackmon, who said, “I hang on the street corner with the bums.” Not very exciting? On the weekends it is a different story. Students jump into their cars and con- quer the Mall, the bowling alley, and practically every food joint in town. Sophomore John P. Dennis said, “I go to the games, and I’m usually with my friend Polo and crowds of people.” Angel Henry, a sophomore, said, “I hang out at Guido’s or at my boyfriend’s house.” “T like to go to parties and go dancing on weekends,” said senior Tony Hollimon. Nee Sophomores (Weekends After School) “T like to go to dances and the movies on the weekends,” said sophomore Felicia Butts. Senior April Basley struck a common chord with a number of other students when she said she would prefer to go anywhere “away from Macon.” Latonja Hill, a sophomore, said the best place to go on the weekends was one of the malls in Atlanta. Sophomore Artiffaney Mosley longs to go “to Minneapolis, Minn. to see Prince, or if not that, to the mall in Canada, or L.A., or the mall in Minneapolis.” Amy Christine Kitchens Edward Kitchens Lisa Diane Koch Dexter Benard Lamar Heather Elizabeth Land Tris Subina Lavant Rosetta Angelina Lester Christopher B.

The underclassmen were swamped with their own problems. Before students had been in school very long, they were faced with worrying about paying for school pictures, club dues and jerseys, and yearbook deposits. Freshman JaTonya Riley said, “It has been expensive for me, but thanks to my parents I got through it. I’m not old enough to work yet, so they helped me out.” Junior Art Wright said, “You bet it’s been expensive! I’ve had every kind of expense there is. If I didn’t have a job, I’d be in big trouble.” Freshman Nickey Zellner said, “I’m not old enough to really work so I do odd jobs. It’s not steady work, but I get a lit- tle money.” Another junior, Butch Koch, said, Juniors (Mathis-Rowland) “My expenses are everywhere. I’ve got school expenses plus a truck payment and insurance to worry about. My job is very important to me.” Of the three underclassmen years, the junior year, of course, is the worst. Juniors finance the junior-senior prom with $20 prom dues, and order senior rings, the least expensive of which starts at about $150. Unfortunately, the junior year is only a taste of things to come. JUNIOR HENRY PAYNE HAS A TOYOTA that has been fitted with custom pedals to enable him to drive. Getting ‘wheels:’ Having a car seems more necessity than luxury A variety of cars and trucks filled the student parking lot this year — some old, some new; some sporty, and some economical. While most of the students have worked very hard to afford their cars, a few were lucky because parents helped them or bought them a car to drive. The primary reason to have a car, of course, is to have more convenient and comfortable transportation. Junior Felicia Tufts says, “Driving is an advan- tage because you don’t have to get up so early to catch the bus on rainy days.” The next most important reason to own a car is independence. Senior Steve Sims said, “Driving your own car makes you less dependent on your parents and friends.” WILLIAM “‘PORKY’ WALLACE WAITS PATIENTLY IN LINE in his mud buggy to leave the parking lot after school. Ad BUTCH KOCH, WHO WOULD RATHER WORK ON HIS TRUCK THAN EAT, enjoys a Coke as he waits for his younger sister Lisa to come out of the building. BEHIND THE WHEEL OF HER FIERO, senior Kim Jarrell heads off campus for her weekend of cruising town with friends. Juniors (Cars) Some teenagers find additional uses for their cars. Junior William Wallace, better known as “Porky,” likes to take his souped-up Volkswagon “mud bogg- ing.” Senior Kim Jarrell likes to cruise around town on the weekends in her sporty Fiero. Then there is the old argument bet- ween Ford and Chevrolet owners. Geary Pinnell, a junior, says, “There are too many Fords in the parking lot and not enough Chevys.” However, according to Debbie Vickers, a junior, there’s more to a car than just four wheels that take you where you want to go. She says, “A car isn’t a car unless it has a jam system in Charles Eugene Sanders Johnny Lamar Sapp Debra Karina Searcy Pamela Renee Shannon Richard Troy Shelven Alvin Lee Shines Greselda LaTrease Shines Raquel Simmons KaPrina Lashun Singleton Kristy Lynn Singleton Cathy Lynn Smith Keita Benae Smith Aimee L.

SIGNING MEMORY BOOKS IS FUN, as senior Tracey Eason discovers with junior Aaron Darrisaw. - Say Once again it is time for yet another senior class to say goodbye. No more lockers, old ragged books, insistent bells, running for lunch, and familiar hallways. Ready or not, it’s time for the Class of 1987 to go out into the real world to assume adult responsibilities. That thought can be a little scary. Senior Katranka Huston said, “The thing that scares me most about leaving Northeast is whether I'll have a good career that I will enjoy doing and whether I'll be successful in whatever I go out to do.” Mona Tyler, another senior, said, “I hope I will find a good job, and I wonder how old I'll be before I own my own business.” Senior Tracey Eason has something else on her mind. She said, “I’m worried about meeting new people and knowing which ones to trust and which not to trust.” Other seniors are worried about being on their own. Audrey Hill said, “I’m really worried about getting out there on my own and depending on myself.” Lorenzo Anderson, another senior, said, “I’m scared, knowing I’m going to have to accept the responsibility of be- ing on my own.” Although seniors seem to be looking ahead with some uncertainty, they are also looking back with fondness at their time at Northeast. Kenneth Sanders said, “The thing I'll miss the most is the Mark Smith food and the laughter of the kids.” Senior Jo Anne Caines said, “I will certainly miss all of my teachers.” Al Scott, another senior, said, “T’ll miss all of the good times that accom- Seniors (Leaving Northeast) ying goodbye to high school: Seniors reflect on past, anticipate future as graduation ceremony nears pany high school life. During the 2-1 years that I’ve been in Macon, I’ve ac quired some very good friends, and no} we will have to go our separate way: But the one I'll miss the most is m girlfriend, Cynthia M. Brown.” There are, of course, a few things the the seniors will not miss. For exampk senior Basil Freeman said, “The thin I'll miss the least is detention.” “Final exams — I won’t miss them ¢ all,” said senior Octavia Clowers. Senior Merri Jo Morgan said, “I wi miss the work that these teachers love t give us.” The members of the Class of 198 seem determined to avoid losing touc with each other and Northeast.

Fults Seniors (DeShazer-Fults) Choosing a college is difficult: Cost, majors available, location, size are four factors to be considered A number of seniors are serious about continuing their education. Of the 55 seniors responding to an_ informal survey, roughly 84 percent plan to at- tend a four-year college, while nine per- cent are opting for a junior college and the remaining seven percent have selected a vocational-technical school. College-bound seniors agreed concer- ning the major factors they considered in selecting a specific school. The over- whelming majority said that cost and majors available were the top two fac- tors. The location and size of the school, while important to many of those responding, rated third and fourth, respectively. Extracurricular oppor- tunities rated a distant fifth. Senior Audrey Harris, for example, plans to attend Georgia College in Milledgeville. She said, “It has an ex- cellent nursing program, and it’s close to home.” Senior Windy Jenkins plans to attend the University of Georgia where she will major in journalism. She said she chose Georgia “because it has a good English department, is economically affordable, and is not too far away from home.” In addition to the general trends, there were some personal reasons for the specific selections. Alvin Harmon, a senior, said, “I’m going to Morehouse College in Atlanta. It appeals to me the most. A junior college or a technical school really wouldn’t give me the same feelings of college life.” Senior Geraldine McGirt plans to at- tend Georgia College because it seemed to be a “calm and peaceful environment in which to learn and study.” Senior Sabrina Wright chose her SENIORS TAWANA GRAY AND STEPHANIE TURNER talk financing strategies with a representative from the Educational Talent Search agency. COLLEGE ADMISSIONS OFFICIALS come to campus often during the school year. LeArnecia Epps and Angela Brown examine brochures and talk with someone from the University of Georgia. school because it is simply a family tradition. In all cases, however, there is general agreement with senior Walter Hoskins, who said, “Choosing a college is a giant step in life.” WARRICK GEORGE: JROTC 10, 11, Co Com 12; FHA 9; Rifle tm 10; 9th gr bskb; wrest 9; v bsbl 9, 10, 11.

There’s good news, bad news Senioritis, senior pranks are fun, but final year of high school is expensive To most seniors, their final year follows the old cliche of good news and bad news. Enjoying senioritis and pulling senior pranks fall into the category of “good” news, while the cost of the senior year definitely belongs in the “bad” news column. “T honestly believe that seniors should get first choice at everything because we have definitely earned the privilege,” said Senior Class Presi- dent Jacqueline Hill. Senior Jacquita White “Senioritis is the feeling that all seniors have that they should be treated special.” Senior April Basley said, “It feels great to be a senior, because I feel I have arrived at just one of the many milestones I must endure.” Senior Alvin Harmon said, “I believe that many seniors, if not all of them, suffer from senioritis. I am en- joying every minute of it.” According to an informal poll of seniors, senior mischief has been mild this year. The chief motive has been to have fun, not to be mean or get said, | back at someone. In fact, most pranks have been played on other sen iors or at least underclassmen who are good friends. Typical pranks have included loose tops on the salt shakers at lunch, and shoving students into the wrong class. “My best prank was talking out loud and getting someone assigned deten- tion for me, but then I howled and she (the teacher) caught me, too,” said senior Benita Parker. The senior year is not all fun and games. Along with the very real pressure of passing the necessary courses to graduate (and doing well in them, if planning to go to college), seniors find that the final year of school is quite expensive. From an in- formal poll, seniors estimated that the average senior will spend close to $200, but many will spend far more than that. First, there is the excitement of tak- ing senior pictures, heightened this year by the move to Southeastern Por- traits, Inc. For seniors trying to save money for ficial photographers for Central and Southwest for years. The least expensive portrait package is around $40. Then the yearbook staff requests $10 more to defray the cost of printing the senior section in color, which is not in- cluded in the $24 it costs to buy the yearbook itself. Because they are proud of being seniors, they then want to pay $14 or more for the official senior jersey. For those who take the SAT to qualify for college, there’s another $11.50, and most of them take it twice! Most seniors expect to spend a small fortune on the prom for formal wear, flowers, and dinner. Even more seniors expect to spend about $40 or so on in- vitations, senior cards, and a memory book. Seniors are usually surprised to find they must pay $13 for the cap and gown. A senior who hopes to go on the senior trip better have about $200 more squirreled away, just for that! For seniors trying to save money for college, the senior year is a constant drain on those plans. Many wish they were independently wealthy. Belinda Faye Robinson Merrick Robinson Catherine L.

Senior Class on top. . . at last! Reaching the twelfth grade means they're ‘in charge;’ they ‘rule’ After school, the average high school student completing eleven years of goes through a change, a sort of metamorphosis. As rising seniors emerge from the end of their junior year, there is a new con- fidence. Initially sure of themselves, they enjoy a year of lording it over everyone else. They play endless pranks and suffer from senioritis, but as the year moves along one sobering thought intrudes on all that fun. Soon — very soon, indeed — they will be face to face with the real world. As graduation gets closer and closer, the mood becomes more serious and reflective as students ponder their readiness to be completely responsible for their own actions and their own lives. Senior Jacquita White explains what it means to be a senior. She said, “We rule! It also means that we as seniors should have a little more privileges than the underclassmen.” “Tt means a lot to me,” said senior Trenisicia Stephens. “It means I have accomplished something. I’m proud of myself, but I also realize it’s only the beginning.” All through those first eleven years, members of the Class of 1987 have been picked on and laughed at by older classes which preceded them. Since they surviv- ed that gauntlet, the seniors feel that they deserve whatever senior privileges might come their way. Because they en- dured what previous classes dished out, it’s only fair that they now get to play the fun side of the game. “I know that the underclassmen get jealous and think we’re a bunch of ‘stuck-up’ young adults, but they have to look at it from our point of view,” said senior Tony Ridgeway. ‘“We were underclassmen just like they are now, and we got picked on and pushed around a lot. When we became seniors, it releas- ed a lot of anxiety and hostility. The underclassmen are the only ones we can take it out on. So you shouldn’t get of- fended, underclassmen; it’s only a tradi- tion that’s been passed down from graduating class to graduating class. Don’t worry! You'll get your chance to be seniors, but for now, the Class of ’87 is on top at last!” Wie! Seniors (On Top at Last) INF 1a; “Tony, please answer number five.”’ “Uh... What page?

COACH WALTER DANIELY, SOCIAL STUDIES INSTRUC- TOR, explains to sophomore Chris Linder the importance of keeping grades up. With point values for top three grades the same, students still found they had to STUDY HARDER TO PASS Strong protest from parents and students led the Bibb County Board of Education to reject a grade scale proposed by the school superintendent and his staff. The tougher grade scale had only been in force for about nine weeks. The change came about when the state mandated last spring that a state passing score be set at 70. Originally, Dr. Thomas Hagler had pro- posed that the Bibb County grading scale be distributed as follows: A=94-100; B=85-93; C=75-84; D=70-74; F=69 and under. Parents and students who objected to the new scale did so for a variety of reasons. Some felt that it was unfair to the seniors to change the scale on them just when they were competing to be admit- ted into college. Others felt that the cut-off score to make an A was simply too high. “T feel that if they want to change the grade system, they should do it to the in- coming ninth graders, not the students who are ready to graduate,” said senior Merri Jo Morgan. “T didn’t like the proposed grade scale because if you took a test with ten questions and missed just one, that’s a B instead of having a chance LUNCHTIME IS A GOOD TIME to get some help from a friend, junior David Moore and freshman Maryjane Whisby discover, as they exchange ideas on some algebra problems. New Grade Scale to make an A,” said sophomore Willie Mitchell. Some students thought that the higher passing mark was a good idea. “ People should attempt to do more than just get by. This way students strive more for their grades and take more pride in their work,” said freshman Shannon Stanton. In any case, the school board voted to reject the pro- posed scale. In a later meeting, the board accepted a revised scale which returned the top three grades to 1985- 86 point values (A=90-100; B=80-89; C=70-79), and simp- ly dropped the D altogether. - 8Y = 70-14 AIM. FOR AN INDICATING THE TOUGHER GRADING SYSTEM in force at the beginning of the year, Mrs. Sydney Chalfa, English teacher, encourages her students to study vavsoie INES Solidifying their own skills along the way, peer tutors help others to BOARD ‘SUCCESS EXPRESS’ Students helping students. That was the idea behind Success Express, a peer tutoring project initiated in October by Mrs. L. W. Wimberly, Northeast principal. Each academic department was instructed to organize a student tutoring system in which the more able students in each class were given the opportunity to work with classmates who were having difficulty. Student peers were supposed to work with their partners during classtime and any other times they could get together, such as before school, at lunch, or after school. es a � WITH A LITTLE AFTER- SCHOOL HELP from Mrs. Kathi Tyson, her teacher, freshman Cristel Bell begins to catch on to a new mathematics concept. he program seemed wads successful in the math department. Mrs. Gwynneth Lamon, math teacher, found the pro- gram most useful in her con- sumer math and pre-algebra classes. “It gives slower students an assist. Students talk the same language. The program has even helped in several cases in behavior pat- terns. Students really do want to learn,” said Mrs. Lamon. “Students who participate are serious about improving their work.

Lunch and after school were the times selected by Mr. Thurnell Johnson’s math tutors. What evidence was there of the effectiveness of the program? “Grades have improved,” said Mr. Johnson. An extra benefit to the tutoring was the effect on the student tutors. Having to know the subject well enough to help a classmate “gives the students a chance to practice and enhance their own skills while helping others,” said Mr. Johnson. _— ... rr eee SOPHOMORES JACLENE PARHAM AND DEANNA ROWLAND put their heads together to conjugate some Spanish verbs.

Dr. Combs, who is a writing consultant from the University of Georgia, said that the state has predicted that as many as 30 percent of the state’s sophomores will fail the writing sample on the GBST in the fall, 1987, test. However, Dr. Combs is op- timistic about Northeast students who will face the DR. COMBS GLANCES THROUGH HIS WRITING FOLDER FOR A SAMPLE of his work to read to the students. writing sample next year. He said, ‘““With the work I’m do- ing here, the percentage does not have to be that high at Northeast. These students could be the first ones to pass the writing test added to the reading and math tests already required statewide for graduation.” Freshmen involved in the program called “Writing to Win” were those in classes taught by Mrs. LaMerle Loveland, Mrs. Sydney Chalfa, Mrs. Erma Stevens, Ms. Pam Brown, Mr. Reece Morrison, and Mrs. Juanita Floyd. Mrs. Chalfa was very en- thusiastic about the program. FRESHMEN LINDA JACKSON, FELICIA KEATON, AND DAPHNE ANDERSON swap drafts with Mrs. Sandra Cox, Language Arts Curriculum Director for Bibb County, during peer evaluation. “T now have a better idea of how to prepare students to write and how they can learn from each other’s writing. Not only do the students understand the writing pro- cess better, but they seem to enjoy it more. Dr. Comb’s procedures are easy to follow. They are very ‘teachable’ in that students see the logical steps involved.” A West Coast native, Dr. Combs was educated in Min- nesota and has a doctorate in linguistics. He said, “I taught in Minnesota for four years and Georgia for seven more before I got to own my own company.” TA ae Ninth Grade Writing Project INGE; Students enjoy club activities and make some spending money while acquiring skills to PREPARE FOR FUTURE JOBS Getting students ready for the ‘real’ world — that’s the goal of the vocational classes. Entry level job skills in areas as varied as office training, construction, transportation, retail merchandising, and in- dustrial arts were available to students. Not only did students accumulate Carnegie units and hours toward graduation, they got paid for using those skills in parttime jobs. The experience of voca- tional classes provided an op- portunity to sample various career possibilities, especially for those students who already had _ vocational- technical school training in mind.

Offered for the last three years, Advanced PE is an elec- tive originally designed for those students involved in in- terscholastic competition. Coach Alvin Copeland ex- plained the reason for the class. ‘‘The Advanced Physical Health Education class, my sixth period, was in- tended to be a class for the school athletes. They could be together and do things they couldn’t do in other classes, such as review game films, workout, aid injuries, and WITH LOOKS OF DETER- MINATION, THREE VARSITY CHEERLEADERS, junior Shanel Bobo, sophomore Cynthia Cruz, and senior Debra Adderly, paint a ‘“‘Raiders’’ booster poster for the game.

Because of other course requirements or schedule conflicts, all of the athletes are not in the class. In addition, almost half of the students in the class aren’t in- volved in after-school athletics. The aversion of the typical student to the required PE class is not shared by members of the Advanced PE class, known to the rest of the stu- dent body as “the sixth period jocks.” Junior Ann Brooks said, “I like it better than regular PE.” Tage 24 INE?

It enhances physical education at North- east, without taking away from other classes.

Staying Eligib Facing tougher academic rules, athletes spend longer hours hitting the books to STAY ELIGIBLE TO PLAY A change in eligibilty re- quirements from the Georgia High School Association (GHSA) was greeted with mixed reviews. Teachers, coaches, and administrators were mostly in favor of the new requirement that an athlete must pass five classes out of six to remain eligible; the students, especially the athletes themselves, were less sure. Coupled with the other decision coming out of Quali- ty Basic Education (QBE) which mandated a state pass- ing score of 70, a number of athletes were worried about the increased pressure. Now, not only did athletes have to work harder to be sure to pass a fifth class, they also had to work harder to A om | AN UPCOMING FINAL EX- AMINATION IN HISTORY has sophomore Hubert Hogan spen- ding some free time hitting the books so he can do his best. continue to pass the ones they had passed before. Most teachers seemed to believe that the toughening measures had their roots in the “no pass, no play” ruling in Texas a year or two ago. Whether the new Georgia rul- ings were copycat moves in- spired by the Texas decision, or whether they would have been part of the overall QBE reforms eventually, it really didn’t matter. What mattered was that the rulings were in force, and the athletes had to deal with them. Junior Kelvin McElroy, a football player, said, “The decision wi ll help me to prepare for college. It should teach me how to improve my study habits.” “The new rule has really HEAVY HOMEWORK ASSIGN- MENTS IN HONORS COURSES have academically strong athletes like sophomore Monita O’Neal scurrying to keep up. motivated me because I really want to play basketball and get a scholarship for college. This will make me strive harder for my dream,” said sophomore Monita O’Neal. Sophomore wrestler and baseball player Ronald Blackmon spoke for the athletes who were less pleased with the rulings. He said, “I don’t think it’s fair because most of the players were bare- ly passing the required four classes last year. Since QBE and GHSA have changed the grading scale and the number of courses to pass, we may not have enough players to make a team.” Although a few students did find themselves ineligible, the athletic program survived.

Membership in honorary organizations is strictly By personal invitation only To be accepted into the honorary organizations, you have to be invited. The National Honor Soci- ety is probably the best known of the three honorary organizations. Students are invited on the basis of their leadership, scholarship, char- acter, and service. Required grade point averages are 4.00, seniors; 4.20 juniors; and 4.30 sophomores. Windy Jenkins, a member, said, “The National Honor Society represents high achievement and hard work. It is something to strive for in your academic career.” New members of the honor society inducted during the assembly for American Edu- cation Week were seniors Barbara Billingslea and Joel Jenkins; juniors Danielle Al- len, Ralph Redd, Marilyn Rhodes; and sophomores Charles Allen, Michael Bras- well, Andrea Gordon, Stuart Nelson, and Monica Samp- son. Mu Alpha Theta invites students to join who have an overall average of B in three or more academic math courses and who are currently enrolled in an academic math course. “Mu Alpha Theta was formed to engender keener interest in mathematics, to develop sound scholarship in the subject and promote enjoyment of mathe- matics among high school stu- dents,” said Ms. Rita Long, club adviser. Quill and Scroll International Honor Society for High School Journalists recognizes the spe- cial contributions of staff mem- bers on the school newspaper, magazine, and yearbook. Stu- dents who have made exception- al contributions to the student publications and who are in the upper third of their class are in- vited to join. Honoraries Academic clubs offer extra opportunities for Extending classroom knowledge In addition to the honorary organizations, other academ- ic organizations provided stu- dents with academic talents outlets for enrichment or competition. Spanish Club Membership in the Span- ish Club is open to students who are presently taking Spanish I or II, and to those who have already completed Spanish II. According to the adviser, Mr. Riley Brown, the club at- tended a performance of “Los Bailes Espanoles de Jose Molinas” in Albany in Octo- ber, learned about classical and Flamingo Spanish dances, and established a pen-pal network with stu- dents in Spanish-speaking countries.

Then they found out that hard work paid off. Salmagundi adviser, Mrs. Shirley Macklin, said, “It’s very challenging. I am con- stantly faced with the chal- lenge to foster creatuivity and the production of quality work among the students. Once you have achieved a number one magazine, you have to match you own for- mer efforts.” Windy Jenkins, Salma- gundi editor, said, “I enjoy it so much that I’m planning to continue right into college with it.” Golden Star editor, Al MEMBERS OF THE GOLDEN STAR STAFF begin to work on the design of the next issue. Scott, said, “I expected it to be very demanding. It took a lot of hard work and a lot of know how.” Valhalla editor, Kim Mc- Dowell, said, “It takes a lot of work. When all the students don’t help, it makes it a lot harder on those who are left to pick up the slack.” “We were satisfied with the critical evaluations of all three publications on state, regional, and national levels of competition,” said Mrs. Carole Ford, adviser for the newspaper and the yearbook.

Working hard on instruments, marching, and pride, the Raider band is Fstablishing a tradition of excellence A new tradition of ex- cellence that’s what the Raider band was putting together this year. Instrumentally, there were big accomplishments. Two members of the band were se lected to the dis- trict honor band Carla Fults and Precious Lind- sey, both on clarinets. In district solo and ensemble competition, Tanya Gool- sby was ranked superior on flute and Conya Reeves, excellent on clarinet. In fact, the entire band moved up a notch in con- cert competition at the Spring Music Festival. In 1985-86, the band received three excellents and a good on Level III. This year the ¥ é p mm, - 't band moved up to Level IV, a higher difficulty level, and re- ceived three goods and a fair. The marching was receiv- ing more recognition, too. Not only did the band march in the traditional Macon Christmas Parade, but they also made the short trip to Atlanta to take part in the prestigious Macy’s-Egleston Christmas Parade. According to parade offi- cials, more than 100,000 spec- tators lined the mile-and-a- quarter parade route last year, and a viewing audience of an additional 250,000 watched the live broadcast over WAGA TYV-5.

He said, “It was a great honor for the Raider Band to participate in the Macy’s Pa- rade. No band has ever been asked to participate in the event two years straight.” Drum major Jacquita White said, “Over 400 bands tried out for the Macy’s Pa- rade, but only 12 made it.” The Raider band also marched in the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Savannah, winning the Sinn Fein Award, being the first American band in the parade. Of course, the band also marched in the Macon Cher- ry Blossom Parade. The growing reputation of the Raider band is the result of lots of hard work.

Chorus members go about their many performances Once more with special feeling of Dr. Martin Luther King, Although the chorus per- formed as always for the school and the community, this year the singing was re- ally from the heart, according to Chorus President Michael Glover. “In past years, when I’ve sung during the Christmas holidays, I never felt as happy about doing it as I did this year, and the rest of the cho- ral members had the amount of spirit behind them as well. Without Mrs. Floyd, all of our singing for the community and for our school would not be possible.” Beside the assembly at school, the chorus also per- formed in community churches’ commemorations N Jr., and the district choral festival. Cynthia Brown, Rodregus Newton, Madeline Horne, Charity Cabiness, and Aquil- la Daniels participated in the solo and ensemble competi- tion at Baldwin County. Mrs. Juanita Floyd, choral instructor, said, “They do much more than just sing: they have written and oral ex- aminations, and they are graded on class particrpa- tion.” With the amount of talent represented in choral mem- bers, there are bound to be some who will find ways to succeed musically in the fu- ture. hy Choral Groups Mrs. Floyd said, “Many of my students have the poten- tial to go far in the enter- tainment business, particu- larly Michael Glover, Kenneth Sanders, Juandalynn Harris, and Delphia Boynton, just to name a few.” Michael Glover said, “As president of the chorus, I would like to say that I’ve en- joyed being in the chorus for three years. We’ve been through good times and bad times and have always been successful in the choral fes- tivals. I hope that the chorus continues to be the best of all the rest.” ‘ SENIOR MICHAEL GLOVER directs the chorus during a brief performance at Eastview Nurs- ing Home.

Cadets get a headstart on armed forces training in JROTC’s leadership program The Northeast Junior Re- serve Officers’ Training Corps (JROTC) program is a strong elective program which develops leadership, confidence, patriotism, and civic responsibility in the stu- dents in the cadet corps. Students study military history, weapons and tactics, drill, inspection, and ceremo- nies. They have physical fit- ness training which includes exercises and a confidence course. They also learn to shoot rifles, having a state-of- the-art rifle range in the JROTC wing. First aid is in- 2 i cluded as well. Freshman Errine Lester said, “It is fun. I had a great time when we went to Mercer to rappell.” Treceda Cobbs, another freshman, said, “Some people told me it wouldn’t be a good class. It isn’t. It’s a wonderful class!” Cadets in JROTC have an opportunity to compete and represent Northeast, too.

Over the years these three words have meant a variety of things to the students who have walked her halls. To the first class in 1971, Northeast High School meant change and mix- ed emotions. It meant the by-product of a county-wide desegregation upheaval which, in part, brought “three great schools of old” — Mark Smith, H. S. Lasseter, and Peter G. Appling — into a melting pot called Northeast. To the class of 1975, Nor- theast High School meant building traditions and reflecting upon a new sense of identity as the first group of “pure Raiders.” To the classes of the late 70’s and early 80's, Northeast High School meant growth with the groundbreaking, construction, and eventual dedication of the ad- ministration vocational facility — which finally made for complete coeducation among classes, as well as building departmentalization. To the more recent graduating classes, Nor- theast High School has meant grade-level restructuring and an in- creased minority enrollment as neighborhood patterns and social trends constantly change. However, sixteen years later and sixteen classes later the ideals of three grand old schools are still reflected in the high standards that Northeast so emphatically motivates. And despite misinforma- tion and distorted public opinion during the past decade, Northeast students continue to prove themselves while in school and after graduation. Just as Smith, Lasseter, and Appling produced such outstan- ding graduates as Craig Hertwig, Jag Gholson, and Charles Wells; Valeria Murphey, Lydia Mitcham, and Fran Grant; Rodney Davis, Billy Randall, and Ben Johnston, Northeast always has, too. Furthermore, she still does. Graduates from the last several classes are studying at leading in- stitutions U.S.C., Morehouse, Spelman, Vanderbilt, Auburn, and Clemson, just to name a few. Others have undertaken exciting careers in the military or in the work force. Even some members of the 1987 senior class have already accepted of- fers to attend various colleges and military academies. Yes, each year Northeast successfully sends out another group of graduates who like their predecessors shall become valuable assets to cities and com- EDUCATION — Clockwise from top right: Francile W.

This page and the next several feature a few of Northeast’s alumni from the classes of 1971 through 1981.
