Once again the editorial staff said. We want the book bigger. Well lo and behold, we added 64 new pages to bring the largest book in south Texas to 400 pages. However out of the 32 color pages. 16 were out in order to add the introduction, more features, and the closing pages. The book included the traditional three page foldout of the senior class. A new attraction has been added at the end of the Senior section that no other valley yearbook has created; a tour page panoramic foldout of the Senior class taken in February. Senior pictures are bigger than ever. Nearly every section of the yearbook was enlarged. Why. you might ask? P.S.J.A. High School is growing. Therefore, u r must grow with it. Memorable events took place throughout the year and our photographers managed to capture those moments. How can you forget the total chaos during the first weeks ' of school when over 500 students wandered around without schedules. The overcrowding condition was one hectic and continuous problem. During homecoming, a big Halloween costume party was thrown by the Senior class. Drama put on three shows for over 4000 people and the sophomore class officer elections were delayed. The Belle and Beau Dance that the sophomores hold was once in jeopardy because of lack of interest. Then the Prom, as the last dance was one of the most expensive goals to be put forth. Whatever the event, students here at P.S.J.A made history. For the Senior class, this is the year to remember and the moment to hold on to forever.
