-v -: ■ ■ m m ' .- ' ■ PROMINENCE - It’s only a big word that sounds important, and rightly so — one of its many meanings is “importance.” What better word could sum up, not only the utility of the high school yearbook, but also the passage of time which allowed the individuals in the school to grow in knowledge, skills, and maturity? The larg¬ est growth spurt takes place during the high school years — the years that students ex¬ perience their first real love, and maybe their first real heartbreak. These are the years during which students wrestle with anticipatory thoughts about trying out for a team or run¬ ning for an office. These are the years that students are put to test after test, not only in class, but in the halls and be¬ tween classes when the test is that of integrity and charac¬ ter. Many intangibles and im¬ measurable facets of each in¬ dividual are tested day after day, and whether the results are pass or fail are only ac¬ cording to the criteria by which the individual measures himself. Whatever the results, the testing time is prominent, the events that occur during the time are memorable, and the results are important because they will project far beyond the NOW, and will be influen¬ tial in the future. Prominence is a matter of perspective and a matter of in¬ terpretation. It can be what¬ ever the reader wants it to be, as long as it is important! Tim Goad’s prominence in size is overshadowed only by his accom¬ plishments. Next year he plays foot¬ ball for Sub-freshmen Beverly Bullington and Tina Pendleton use time prior to the health exam to review notes. Well spent moments in high school make a marked difference in grades. PROMINENCE - A Matter of Perspective and Interpretation 2 Opening
