Many were astounded by the size of the building, others were afraid of Freshman Kill Day. Their first year as Big Reds, they built the fourth place float, Winnie- the-Pooh. They did so un- der the direction of class sponsor Mr. Murphy. In their sophomore year, they went on to another fourth place finish with the French Fry Guy under new class sponsor, Mrs. Wojtas. During their junior year, as they readied their float for Homecoming, they got a second advisor to help out. Mr. Vandenbergh helped them splash into second place with Grover in a speedboat. As seniors, the class of 87 took another second place with their version of a steamboat, and. before they knew it. that long four years was over, much too soon for some. Shown here in front of the MOC. the senior class of 1987 stands proudly for their traditional photograph. Senior Picture

Big Red Country was invaded. The raiders started their attack on the building. The transfiguration had begun. Walls crumbled, doors were unhinged, windows were veiled with thick insulated coverings. Rooms began to disappear and amazingly reappear in new locations. Floors were cloaked; the clamorous sounds were muffled. Even some of the faces changed. Students returned to witness the metamorphasis and spied the transforma- tion with furtive glances. Hesitantly they went their separate ways to discover yet another school year. Among their discoveries, students found repainted lockers and new locker poli- cies. The school store, formerly known as the Arrow, was moved to the cafeteria and christened The Trading Post. It’s vacancy on the north side of the main hall provided needed space for the media center which had previously been divided by the main hall. Students in search of P.O.D. no longer headed to room 415, but found their grail in room 110. Working in the library i$ easier now thanks to it being all on one side. The sides were combined to facilitate the new P.O.D. room in room I 10, where the former non- fiction portion used to be. School Changes
