Senior Picnic Seniors Rock the Park! of the year as a final “aloha” before graduation. In the past, the senior picnic has always been a time that se- niors had to say goodbye to some friends and party with Derek Lu the sun certified day off! 587 ug 68 Senior Picnic outstanding turnout as in the past, but those on hand feel that the picnic was a success despite the fact that many seniors decided to head straight to Lake Tobosofkee after graduation practice. In the tradition, there were wa- tergun fights, belly-flop con- tests, and all the barbeque, hotdogs, and hamburgers that seniors could eat. To some seniors, merely getting free food was a sign of suc- cess for the picnic, but most seniors feel there was more to a full day of partying and Ayres, Patricia Luther, and Lisa Burton take a break the picnic than that. The pic- nic is a time to have fun with not only your crowd but with the entire class; it's a time to be with friends you may not see after graduation; and last- ly, it’s the end of a world that many were anxious to leave three years ago but now find hard to let go of — it’s the end of their high school life. Mr. Mantiply dishes up some good ‘ole barbeque for Tonya Boselie and all the other hungry seniors. The Senior Execu- tive Body plans the picnic.

Graduation 1989 Mother Na- ture strikes for the sec- ond year! On June 5, 1989, as the seniors gathered at Interna- tional City Stadium for gradu- ation, their hopes for a tradi- tional graduation were shat- terd when a sudden thundershower sent everyone to his car for shelter. Mr. Dyson announced that gradu- ation would be held at the ie | sear ¢ “ ; ’ Z Ave Civic Center at 7:00. Although ene nm ¢ | seniors were disappointed at . , , 4 i the change in location, gradu- = | ; . ation went as planned. The c = Civic Center was filled to ca- pacity with relatives and friends as approximately three hundred seniors were awarded their diplomas. At the beginning of the ceremo- ny school superintendent Dr. Harold Chapman spoke brief- ly to the many people gath- ered in the Civic Center. Some change in plans were necessi- tated by the change in venue. The band and chorus, who traditionally perform at grad- uation, could not perform as planned because of lack of space. Therefore the tradito- nal alma mater and various inspirational songs had to be ommitted from the program. As Mr. Dyson presented each diploma and shook the hand of each graduate, assistant principals Charlott Moore and Alton Mattox and instruction- wcrc revered Jan Melnick bles with fellow | Mr. Maine talks to the crowd as they | : x — jan Melnick assem | uate. bmp ol ognteandl seniors before the thunderstorm. enter the graduation exercises. in the handing out of diplo- Seniors rush to line up before the 70 Graduation
