HALL OF FAME Charles Bridges Barbara Broaddus David Brooker Teresa Brooks Angela Brown Angelene Brown Ieffrey Brown Marty Brown Selwyn Brown Teresa Brown A ivacious model Perseverance is the key to success! This was one philosophy of Lowella Esperanza's. During her four years of high school, she had plenty of successes. Lowella took the opportunity to get in- volved in numerous extracurricular ac- tivities, that involvement ranging from participation in service clubs to leader- ship positions in organizations. In her senior year, she was on the Executive Board of Rojans, served as secretary of the National Honor Society, treasurer of the Spanish Club, and was active in the Science and Engineering Club. Com- menting on her membership in the Spanish Honor Society, she said, It is a real asset to know a second language. Lowella plans to enter the field of medicine, and Northeast has prepared her academically for her future in this area. Along with preparing her for the future, NEHI has given her the chance to meet many terrific people. She con- cluded by stating, I would definitely have to say that my senior year was the best and the busiest year I had at North- east. I managed to survive it with the help of my friends.

These were not uncom- mon words heard by members of the Iveyis and Burdine's Teen Boards as they hurriedly prepared for their fashion shows last summer. Among ten Ivey's Teen Board members, four were seniors from Northeast: Robin Banks, Lowella Esperanza, Dorothy Rhodes, and Tracy Stuebs. On the Burdine's board were three seniors: Latricia Clin- ton, Tammy Kling, and Brenda Peoples. Starting as early as the end of their junior years, the girls had to complete their applications for the boards. The first of two interviews was with the store manager and the fashion coordinator. After that interview, the girls, in suspense, awaited a letter that let them know whether they had become finalists. The second interview, a per- sonal talk, was held in front of three judges. According to Dorothy Rhodes, At this interview, they fthe judgesj con- centrated more on why I wanted to be on the Teen Board and the qualities that I had to offer. The only difference between Ivey's and Burdine's interviews was that when the girls became finalists, the Burdine's judges asked the candidates to dance in front of five judges. Brenda, Tammy, and Latricia all agreed that the inter- view was nerve-wracking but fun. Along with modeling the new fashion looks for 1983, the girls also had the op- portunity to work in the stores and become familiar with the world of retail fashion merchandising. Lowella en- thusiastically said, I've learned so much about myself and others and have met many interesting people. These op- portunities make being a Teen Board member worthwhile and rewarding! Taking a break from modeling at the Dunedin Middle School PTA Back to School fashion show are Robin Banks, Tracy Stuebs, Lowella Esperan- za, and Dorothy Rhodes. About her experiences as a Teen Board member, Lowella commented, On Teen Board, we not only help ourselves, but others as well. Ch-CIXSENIORS 197
