Early Years September 6, 1985, marked our first day of high school, the first day of being freshmen at Quincy High. The most intimi- dating moment was when we were assigned to homerooms, not necessarily with our old friends. The next hurdle we had to overcome was finding our way to classes. We found it especially difficult to reach the Art wing, where many of us had classes. As the years passed, we had to adjust to new experiences. We became more mature, get- ting used to more classes and more homework. The disci- pline at Quincy High was stron- ger than our Middle Schools, and some of us had to learn the hard way. Quincy High wasn ' t just new to us in school work, it was dif- ferent in social aspects as well. The small cliques found at Middle School were dissolved, and our groups grew larger by the minute. We found it easier to make friends, and this helped us have a more relaxed atmosphere. Activities were plentiful at Quincy High, and there was something for everyone. Whether it was sports, clubs, or committees, we all found our place. If you didn ' t neces- sarily belong to something, you could still go to rallies, dances, and athletic events to socialize. High school has been a growing experience for us. Mow that we ' re seniors we can appreciate it all the more. Col- lege is our next obstacle, and we ' ll succeed there also.

Amy Kufert and Jason MacKay took orders from Sharon Goodman on where to put the streamers. Last year Deanne DeSantis considered becoming a bridge designer, but changed her mind because it broke.

Junior Prom Michelle Tardeu:Mas she matured a bit, or is that just the shadow of her pen? Probably the most exciting evening for the Juniors at Quincy High School is Prom night. When we look back at our prom, we will have fond memories of our exhilerating evening. There are many memorable moments of our evening at Braintree Sheraton Tara. Jen- nifer Laplume and Robin LaR- aia will never forget being stuck on the highway due to limousine problems for almost five hours in fear of missing the prom. Karin Picarski and Rich Protasowicki were dates for the prom, but they spent most of the evening arguing. Lisa Mel- chione went to the prom with Hugh Crawford, which you would never guess by the way they avoided each other. Who was that girl linked to Dave Chu? It is rumored that she goes to north Quincy High. Who was the first couple out on the dance floor? You guessed it! It was Sharon Goodman and date Dan Duffy, dancing the night away. In a nearby ballroom, Eric Mar- sters, Scott Kradolfer and Joe DeAngelo graced some post- retirement polka party animals with the pleasure of their com- pany. During one of the many slow songs, Eileen Sullivan and boyfriend, Craig, were un- expectedly interrupted by his mother ' s camera flash. The slow songs may have been in- appropriate for Tracey McDon- ough and Nichele Fidler, who went with each other to the prom. The most annoying people at the prom had to be Sean Gannon, David nie and Mr. Charles Gliniewicz, who took pictures and live action film shots of every person. These pictures could be in- criminating to many of the cou- ples, who were caught doing some rather unmentionable acts. Some even said the night be- gan after the prom was over and the parties began. A wide- ly attended one was at Kim Zupkofska ' s house, where the last guest didn ' t leave until the next day. Others who didn ' t at- tend went out for Chinese food or cruised to Boston in their limos. All in all, the Junior Prom was a great success thanks to the prom committee and all those who attended! The Class of ' 89 will remember the Ju- nior Prom ' Always and Forev- er ! Corrinne Fitchner, Todd Kimmell, and Scott O ' Brien wait expectantly for the Prom feast. Bon Appetit!
