F; MONEY! That's what it takes to be a senior Being a Senior takes many things, among them, mon- eyl! And a great deal at that. All the costs begin in the summer when pictures are taken. Throughout the year, the cost builds. Caps, gowns, testing, announcements, prom, graduation gifts for friends, grad-night at Worlds of Fun, skip-day, and college applications are all included inthis cost. . Senior pictures are the first major cost in being a Sen- ior. Besides the mere cost of-the pictures themselves, many Seniors go out and buy new clothes to take the pictures in. The pictures come in various packets, but even if Seniors choose the least expensive packet, they usually want to buy the best for friends and relatives. Another essential is the cap and gown. Along with the prices of the cap and gowns, girls must usually buy new white dresses and shoes. This year's Seniors choose to go with the rentals again. When asked about the decision, one Senior commented, I like the rental because it's Debbie Hofmann, Terri Bennett, and Don Lininger show their spirit on overall day during Homecoming Spirit week. cheaper, looks nicer, and what would you do with the cap and gown anyway? For most college-bound Seniors, testing is another fac- tor that comes up during the year. The average cost for taking these tests is $10. These tests are supposed to benefit the Senior in getting admitted to college. One of the more expensive things a Senior must face is that of announcements, Senior keys, cards,,and memory books. At .26t an announcement, and $6.25 per box of cards, even a small amount doesn't come cheap. When you add this to keys, memory books, and necklaces, it can add up quickly. Along with all the mentioned expenses, therelare many other costs to figure in such as prom, grad-night at Worlds of Fun, and graduation gifts. This list could go on and on. The cost of being a Senior is indeed great, but worth it. Afterall, you're only a Senior once! ..
