Pawnee High School students continued to “Bring Home the Gold” during the ’84-’85 school year. Students reached out and obtained both scholastic success as well as success in extra curricular events. Nothing stood in their way. Football Indians became 4th in the State the Baseball Indians were victorious to win the MSM Title. Students succeeded to gain knowledge, understanding, experience, and maturity as they strived to be the best that they can be in all they do. TABLE OF CONTENTS This year was an exciting year for our country because of the Summer Olympics at Los Angeles. Our athletes gave us a reason to be proud. Once again, the Indians gave Pawnee a reason to shout and be proud. Even though our school was faced with many hardships, we overcame them and brought home the gold in every event. Coach Dixon helps to organize a successful Helping Sports Boosters raise Homecoming. money for sports programs. Is Dedicated A remembrance of another great football season. Coach Dixon continues to make the best popcorn In Pawnee. As time passes memories fade, people who influenced our lives tend to grow larger in our minds. They grow not for what they taught, for that in time is lost, and not for what they said, for those things also fade, but for what they did; for those things are said to be the true measure of a man. If one’s deeds are the true measure, then Coach Dixon will indeed loom large in our memories. He is not only a teacher, coach, sponsor, advisor, and advocate; but also a friend. His dedication to influence on Pawnee High School will long be felt remembered. His spirit will be kept alive in the hearts and minds of the students co-workers he touched. For what you have done, and for who you are, we salute you, Coach Dixon. “Variety Is the Spice of Life” Every kind of event from the Olympics, to the Presidential election, to the gas leak in India marked 1984 as a year of horrendous tragedies and immense successes. P.H.S., too, had its highs and lows. We cried a lot, we laughed a lot, and we realized that the world will be a better place because of our experiences here. 1984: Year of the Olympics Michael Jordan led U.S.A. to Gold.

Pawnee School District School Board Members and Superintendent This has been a challenging year for our Pawnee School Board. The board has accomplished much, and the school and community appreciate their efforts. Jill Hamilton serves as the secretary to both Mr. Schmink and the school board. Mr. Marvin Mathis, Board President Pawnee School Board Members: Mike Williams, Debbie Marks. Vern Mundhenke, Lawrence Boarman, Ludwig Schober, Steve Cregurich, and Marvin Mathis Achievements: 1. First year since 80-81 to run a balanced budget. 2. Have completed all health, life safety work to bring buildings into compliance. 3. Have seen a renewed emphasis on employee evaluation for everyone. 4. Has seen achievement test scores where 47% of the tested population are at least a % grade above expected level. Mr. Schmink’s Summary of ’84-’85 This has been a year of transition and turmoil caused by new leadership and continued financial problems resulting in program cuts and changes. Hopefully next year some stability will be evident along with a more positive attitude and the functions it serves by all members of the school community—students, staff, parents and citizens. 12 Board members discuss an issue facing the board. Mr. Sandstrom is dedicated to his job as our principal. Mr. Sandstrom Returns to Classroom For eighteen years Mr. Sandstrom has coordinated the activities of P.H.S., a job that is as multi-faceted as is the school’s educational program, activities, and students. Hundreds of students have passed through P.H.S. during that time and each had an opportunity to receive a well-rounded education from the programs they pursued, and also from the involvement they had with other students, from athletics, and from extracurricular activities. The office has been the center around which all of these events took place. Dozens of decisions were made every day, some small ones, and some very consequential ones that would impact heavily on students, teachers, and programs, for years to come. After eighteen demanding and rewarding years, Mr. Sandstrom decided to leave the principal’s position and turn the decision making process and leadership role over to others, and to return to the teaching of history classes. Mrs. Thomas, after 15Vz years as secretary in the high school office, decided to retire. The student body and staff of P.H.S. will miss these two people next year and the office will seem like a different place without them. The office workers are: Dawn Swain. Karla Root. Stephanie Maupin, Maria Bethel, Jan Ward, Leesa Russell, Joanie Patton, and Amy Jenkins. Mrs. Thomas is always ready to help serve you. Mrs. Thomas appreciates ail the help she receives from her student office workers. Many of her workers have been working for more than one year. Their job is to pick up absentee slips, run errands, and answer the telephone. Diane Morgan and Jan Ward load Zerox machine. 13 P.H.S.

Although Aug. 23 found school with a drop in enrollment and staff, many new and exciting changes had taken place over the summer. Our temporary superintendent, Mr. Tepatti had been replaced by our new superintendent, Mr. Schmink, who helped students and teachers “get into the swing of things.” Mr. Tepatti interim Supt. Mrs. Pape does the final touching-up of lockers for the new school year. aa Mr. Schmink assumes helm. School Improvements Are Plentiful '• tv New roofing helped those ceiling leaks. Here are a few comments from students about coming back to school: “I couldn’t wait! Without school there are no sports.” “I’m hyper to be back. I'm glad this is my last year. “I’m happy to be back. Summer was becoming boring, but school is fun.” “It’s good to be back with friends.” “Rejuvenated” I’m ready for some excitement!” “I dread homework!” “I’m sad summer is over, but school is fun and exciting.” New ceiling tiles replaced ones ruined by leaky roof. New phone system further saves money. The new black top smooths away the bumps and cracks.

Pawnee Athletic Sports Boosters Raise $16,000 to Reinstate 11 Sports Programs The Pawnee Athletic Boosters were an integral part of the ’84-’85 school year. In April 1984, after the school board approved their request to be allowed to fund the 11 sports that had been cut, the boosters went into action. Facing the monumental task of raising $16,000, they began coordinating fund raising activities. Concessions at baseball softball games, track meets, REX cleaner sales, raffle tickets on the red 1957 Chevrolet, selling pork sandwiches during the Pawnee Picnic, and sponsoring a 10K run were activities held to raise money. Mary Kay Smargiassl prepares donated sandwiches drink served to home visiting sports teams after every game. At half-time of the home basketball games a shoot-out sponsored by the PAB In conjunction with Max Klemm Chrysler-Plymouth was held. A new 1985 automobile could be won by making a lay-up, free throw, jump shot, and a half-court shot. Curt Clark Marilyn Salzeider, as well as other sports boosters, donated their time to selling tickets. All things considered, Pawnee Athletic Boosters contributed much more than their time, effort, and money.

These men finished the season with the best record of any Pawnee football team in the school’s history, 10-1. They won the MSM conference trophy for the fifth time since 1970. However they will not win another as the MSM has split and the Indians will be members of the new Prairie State Conference in 1985.

Pawnee went on to beat Williamsvilie and Kincaid, and becoming ranked in the state polls 9TH. After beating Mt. Olive, Auburn, and Northwestern, the Indians moved to 5TH in the polls.

The students were anxious to receive their 1983-1984 Indian Echoes. When the football players entered they were met with high praise and applause. A good time was had by all whether they were dancing, singing, talking, or just sitting around signing yearbooks. The dance was a start of Indian Spirit that will last through the year!

A strong possibility is a 2 year program called CAMEL (Calculator Assisted Algebra I class. Math for Everyday Life). This program is set up to be an individualized class where students work at their own pace (within reason) and achieve their grade by doing so much work and achieving satisfactory scores. The grading scale and class will be team taught (one teacher giving individual help; one teacher grading tests and work). During second semester, we also hope to be attending and participating in Math contests. This will be an extra-curricular activity open to all math students (though tryouts may be necessary). Mrs. Burcham held an ACT review class before school last year and together we hope to supply this same sort of class if enough interest is shown. The few. The Proud, The Senior Calculus students.
