Paschal once again has produced a graduating class, the Seniors of '77, with a varied cast of charac- ters, the students who will go to colleges, vocational schools and others who will take jobs. All are writing their unique scripts for future productions. Although each is an individual, as a class they work together to begin America's third century with enthusiasm and pride. 0 As the school year comes to a close, the seniors look back on activities that were exclusively theirs: winning Homecoming Hall, magazines sales, the din- ner dance, Senior Day, and that final one - gradua- tion. Enthusiasm and stage fright compete, as seniors think of leaving friends and the secure familiarities of school and family. Each player is a part of the final production - commencement ceremonies. 24 I SENIORS
