1 BD § I 0 w hat makes Parkland so special? What separates us from the rest of the area schools? Personality. We have lots of it and the student life shows it. All that personality creates some great memories that add a personal touch to everything. Senior Greg Osburn remembers the closeness of the wrestling team the most. He said, “The unity of all the wrestlers working together, through win or loss, really made the season memorable. Another part of the PHS personlity is the spirit. It shows in every event. At the football games, at the prom, or even in class we have fun. Spirit and fun go together. Junior Danelle Bacon explains why, To have fun, you have to have a positive outlook, and basically, having fun is spirit. It makes you feel good about school. I'm proud to show my spirit by being a cheerleader. Types of spirit vary from person to person. Some enjoy simply passing notes in study hall; others like the loud cheering at sporting events. A group of students like this always band together to form the Weenies. The Weenies, led by the basketball mascot, David Ufberg, added life to the games. They got the crowd fired-up, and helped the team play its best. PHS has style too. When things look bad, do we give up? No, we show winning personality to make things better. And it’s done with a style that is unique to Parkland. Senior Karen Roth said, style “We have a basically because we’re like one big family. We become close through different activities and everyone seems to care. That’s what makes it fun! So, no matter what your sense of fun is, you can find it at PHS because we have The Personal Touch. dancesoldcokevs.newcokespringmusicalfunnightfac There are many things which make high school enjoyable and each has a different meaning to different students.
