JANUARY The new year of 1977 began with the first cold spell of the winter season. The first snow and ice of the year brought about an unexpected two days vacation from school. To dampen spirits, the semester tests were taken and grade cards dispersed. Several band students auditioned for and performed with the Green Country Honor Band. Monica Squires and Tim Brown performed with the All-State Band and Chorus. LaDonna Harper was chosen for Basketball Queen as the team beat Tulsa Kelly. On a national scale, Jimmy Carter was inaugurated. Above left: Donita Boom receives an unexpected gift. Above right: LaDonna Harper is crowned Basketball Queen.
