Hard rock music blasts through the air. A sleepy student reaches over to turn off the radio alarm clock—another school day to prepare for. The student looks forward to seeing all of his friends, but that English term paper that is due today will have to be finished. What is a student’s ordinary school day like? A day usually goes “smoothly” when a student passes all of his tests, gets a winning smile from a member of the opposite sex and makes it to all of his classes before the tardy bell rings. A day that passes “roughly” is when a student gets soaked walking in the rain to his classes, leaves his algebra book at home with his homework in it and gets served fried chicken (which he detests) in the lunchroom. Not all days can be perfect. It is true that a high school student has plenty of work to do, but high school is not all work and no play. Farmer's Day and the Junior Senior Prom help relieve the pressures of a stu- dent’s life. Assemblies and pep rallies give students a break from their studies and a chance to show how much pride they have in their school. All students need a boost from ordinary school days and the student life at Dorman proves to be out of the ordinary. Given a chance to show their country spirit, seniors Teresa Tracy. Tammy Mason and Nancy Carter prove that country time’ is more than just lemonade. People going to see Coming At Ya are met with a pretty smile from Missy Haithcock STUDENT LIFE DIVISION 9

This was a way to show their appre- ciation to Dorman for helping them learn and grow. On the night of May 28 at the Spartanburg Memorial Audito- rium, the big day finally arrived. The 525 seniors received their diplomas and were now ready to step out on their own. Some thought of going off to college while others were thinking of moving into the business world. All in all. thoughts were cen- tered on what the future would hold. But. memories of twelve long years would always be pleasantly implanted in their minds. Trustees and board members chat away while waiting to make their entrance on the stage at graduation. Mr. Ralph Cannon proudly shakes the hand of a 1981 senior. GRADUATION HONORS 11
