The process of choosing was long, and started November with the senior class nominating ne girl and one boy. Those nominees were then iven an application to fill out. lt was then nar- owed down, by a committee, to four girls and our boys based on scholarship, leadership, ac- ivities, and awards. A 5.00 minimum grade point average was equired, however, grades were the last thing ooked at. Involvement was a major priority. You only get out of it what you put it. If ou give one-hundred percent you'll get it Lack, said Mike Moses. Mike was student 'ouncil president, and in addition to being ionor society historian, won the National Teachers Association Writing Award. Ann Horne, another candidate for Pirateer, was the pep club sergeant-at-arms, honor society secretary, and math club president. I was really surprised when they told me I was a finalist. It's nice to know your peers sup- port you, said Ann. Being honor society president, national foren- sic league vice-president, and having her class rank one, kept Mei-Ling Fong busy. You have to be very disciplined to devote enough time to your activities and your school work, said Mei-Ling Fong. Another candidate was Ronald Dennis. He was secretary of DECA, and lettered every year in basketball. Ronald also served as Latin dub historian. It takes a lot of time, but the rewards that you get for being active in school are worth it, said Matthew Hawley. Matthew was student council treasurer, math club treasurer, and a junior rorarian. Other candidates included Stan Hubbard, who was student council vice-president, honor society vice-president, with a class rank of one, and Diana Katilus, greatly involved in DECA, and honor society. Even though l enjoy being active in school, my main priority is still my grades, said Mei- Lai Fong, who was student council correspon- ding secretary and math club vice-president. The fact that enough people respected me and my achievements was most important. Not winning, said Mike Moses.

Vocal music started planning, and practicing weeks in advance in order to put on assemblies for the students such as the Christmas assembly where they sang, danced, and made people realize exactly what Christmas was all about. The long hours of practice and perserverarice paid off. Both drama and chorus won numerous awards throughout the year to show for their work. Many long hours go into the making of an assembly, or play, or anything we do. It really makes it all worthwhile when we actually get up in front of our audience and perform, said Ruke Banashek.
