Artfully Crafted rt has many definitions. The word art is often used in a more special- ized way. Many people think that to paint a picture is all that art is. Art has such a wide scale of activities. Singing, making or playing music, molding clay, and painting a picture are all forms of art. Anyone who loves music, who falls into another world in a book, or spends hours painting a sunset, knows the satisfaction that can be found in art. Sometimes it is quite difficult to express this satisfaction in words. In some ways, works of art are high- ly valued in our lives. It is this value that makes the difference between art and en- tertainment. It may give us pleasure; but for the artist, there is a deep satisfaction. The Golden Tornadoe band has a style of their own. Rit Ces as | 10 Opening “Everything is beautiful in it’s own way.”

Never Gonna Give It Up ever gonna give it up is what many oie A. a= people say about Pompano Beach a. High School. For the past few years, the school board has been trying to close down our high school — a school that is a landmark in Pompano’s history. Parents have gathered together in a variety of places in South Florida to express their feelings about closing down the high school. Protests have been held and petitions have been signed in favor of keeping it open. What difference should it make about how old the school is. They just want to close it down and bus the students off to who knows where. If the school was unsafe as far as construction is con- cerned, it would be one thing; but it’s not unsafe. If we didn’t have enough teachers, it would be another. We have enough. We have a community that supports us highly and many concerned parents who care what happens to the high school. In fact, some teachers are teaching children of former students that they have had. Generations have graduated from Pompano; and with continued support, even more generations will graduate from P.B.H.S. Concerned parents gather in the small auditorium. A display of what’s being done to keep our school open. 12 Opening
