Taking Final Glance Back What a year, sighed Junior Suzi Fink on June 17th, the last day of the 1986-87 school year. As the underclassmen finished up their last final exam and cleaned out their lockers, the seniors calmed their nerves for the 7:30 pm graduation ceremony. And through all of this, the events and memories of the school year passed through everyone's mind. I still remember the excitement and thrill of victory when we beat Granite Hills at our first real home game! stated Cindy Brundige. All of Poway High's sports continued their trend of success. Girls volleyball and tennis made the CIF playoffs, and helped contribute to the definition of the MIGHTY TITANS! Overall, the entire athle- tic department boosted the tremendous school spirit and pride that kept the student fi. body interested. I'll always remember the dances that I With the geeky-attire MORP dance, the semifor- mal Winterball, and the most formal Prom, most every extreme of dance was held. Academics and classes hopefully stuck in the minds of the students as an important part of the school year. Freshmen adjusted and struggled through their first year in high school. The sopho- mores enjoyed a seemingly less difficult year while the juniors had to delve deeper into their brains to keep up with their demanding schedule. My junior year taught me how to cram! stated Phil Lalock. And the seniors sweated it out, waiting for hopeful college acceptances. I felt my whole high school career become worthwhile when I got into the col- lege of my first choice, stated Paul Mortaloni. So, the seniors anxiously walked away from PHS, entering into a whole new world while the under- class walked away to yet another fun-filled summer attended over the year, especially the vacation.

Students Voice Gpinion The significant amount of change over the school year brought upon many negative comments from the students. They openly expressed their feelings about the transformation of PHS, and offered their opinions on what they would like to change. Overpopulation of the campus aroused much dislike from the stu- dents. No one could understand the procrastination in building a new high school. One senior commented, lt would be great if they made the classes with only fifteen people. Crowded parking lots enraged a gen- erous portion of the students. Why don't they make enough parking for everyone? asked Brian Korgel. Over- crowding, also hindered the faculty interaction with the students. Tami Marko said, I wish that we could hire someone to do the paper work so the counselors could have more of a chance to counsel us students! The strengthened security caused quite an uproar with the students also. Kathy Stewart said, The yard duties make us feel like we're part of the Poway Penitentiary. The strict hall pass system assured the detention population would rise. The addition of the black fences also caused some argument. Richard Haggerty firmly slated, The fences should be re- moved. We're not animals, we are the future! ln spite of all of the negative feel- ings about certain issues on the cam- pus, one student summed up many feelings. We should all be happy to attend such a great school!!l Nicole Goudy stumbles across a difficult ques tion on her Spanish final exam. 1...
