Pep rallies displayed the student spirit and working, playing and field trips represented other 4 aspects of student life. Winners were every where even though itwas the first year to be in 4A. Overall, it was a good year and we all displayed an A+ attitude . J School in the making Teachers, students reform old habits Teaching, Studying, Grading. These are not the familar activities of summer, but these phrases often enter students minds when they hear Back to School . Students and teachers are all back not by popular demand from a three month vacation. And now that they're back, they plan to make the school year better and go by faster. Being a senior helps my year go by faster. I'm really excited about graduation, Alicia Taylor, senior, said. Summer time is when most students sleep late, but now that school has begun if one is not up on time they are usually late for school which, as we know, makes them tardy. The time I get up has changed now that school is here again and my curfew now has changed on weeknightsj' Michelle Kingsley, senior, said. School seemed to be changing a majority of students social activities. l was kind of ready to go back to school.

My social life changed a lot after school started. I didn't get to go out that much on weeknights and my parents were beginning to come down hard on weekends also, Shelia Fifield, sophomore, said. After students and teachers settled into the new school year some improvements were noticed. When I went back to school, I was really impressed with the changes. Our football stadium was bigger and our sports program, coaches and equipment had really improved, Michelle said. Becoming 4A and all the improvements were things most students were excited about. But there were still the things students dreaded about school. There was waking up early, homework and weekday curfew changes. Everyone had their own way of dealing with the school year but they all seemed to want to make the best of it. 4' 'L Ii, XXX l!4','kl '1255k- rw S6ho6T H We s - I T J , D if 2 at . li ' wi J , Q Wa e m TV f W' lnmat f EE s my -Trace s 1 1 'i 53 .J T E?

Most of the excitement started on Thursday. There was a parade that went through Red Oak and ended at the high school, where a bonfire was ready to begin. The floats for the parade had the theme That Was Then, This is Now. The winning float was from the senior class. HOMECOMING QUEEN Winning the position of queen is Kerri Smith, senior. She was junior princess last year. Following this was the game and the halftime activities. Chosen for queen was Kerri Smith, senior. The princesses were Karena Miller, seniorg Angie Ray, juniorg Jennifer Logan, sophomore and Leslie Prestidge, freshman. To end the week long fun, a dance was held in the gym Saturday night The queen and her court were introduced and the dance began. lt was a fun evening which ended an exciting week. PARADE The Home- coming parade was held on Thursday before the game. The winning float came from the senior class. STUDENT LIFE 1 1 Z Q O A Emiplh sus ein cdltrulllls Practicing for perfection If you walked into' any classroom, you would probably find students doing drills. These students are engaging in the old phrase practice makes perfect. There are a wide variety of drills. There are both academic drills and extracurricular drills. Typing and shorthand are two of the academic courses that do drills. Every day, the first five minutes of class we did warm-up drills. We did these drills to help increase speed and type at a steadier pace, James Garza, junior,-said. Extracurricular drills included drill team, band and basketball. The dance class did strectching exercises to warm up and loosen up their muscles, Sandy Morton, instructor, said. To leam to control movement of specific body parts, body isolations were used. Tums were also a necessary portion of dance combinations. It was important that students leamed spatial awareness through the completion of turns. We did tondu exercises with our feet for coordination drills, Mrs. Morton said. Basketball drills were also important. Some of the drills helped the quickness of the hands and feetg others emphasized ball handling skills and eye-hand coordination, Joel Miller, senior, said. All of the drills were vital for basketball competition. Drills were an essential part of many activities. Whether it was academic or extracurricular, they all helped to improve skills and abilities. Realizing that practice makes perfect, each individual drilled hard to strive for perfection in the activities. DANCE CLASS Working on a combination dance routine is Marivel Flores, freshman. This was the first year a dance class was offered. SALUTING TO THE AUD- IENCE at a football game are Jennifer Walker, fresh- mang Letitia King, sopho- moreg Kelli Koonsman, jun- iorg Rhonda Robertson, first lieutenant and senior, and LeslieWebster, sophomore and second lieutenant. The drill team practiced every morning before school. 12 STUDENT LIFE - -Lx 7 5. 7, TPITHT2 - - 5415, UJII. fvrapmcTzg?Q 5. 1 W- fe 1S.lLQ'ina 'T'- Dj W- 1 4-- pi n.. .1 ,Q ff,-1 X.. av is I' ' .15 'Qi 'filt- rx y TB B G, IL 1 ,.J T-,J .J L T N TYPING to keep up speed is ' ' Natalie Duggins, senior.

Bebe Montgomery, Spanish teacher, stood with a look of distress as she watched Dominic Cuellar, senior, walk toward her with a pie in his hand. As the crowd cheered Dominic on, he threw the pie in her face. At this pep rally, teachers who lived in Lancaster- - the home city of the opposition that Friday night- - received a pie in the face by the class that won the spirit contest. Each teacher picked one student from the senior section to throw their pie. The senior section won the spirit contest. Other than participating in the pie throwing, teachers showed their spirit by performing skits that defeated out opponents. They also performed a rap cheer to encourage the Hawks to win. Teachers set examples for students to increase school pride and spirit. Teachers liked to have fun at pep rallies, but most of the team and the student body deserved teachers who were willing to participate in activ- ities, Don Powers, science teacher, said. Many costumes were worn in pep rallies. Freshmen wore balloon hats while seniors wore paper sack hats. Some students even painted their faces maroon and white. lf students did not have costumes, they always had signs and confetti. Every pep rally, I saw someone wearing something different. It really made a class look spirited when they all had on the same costumes, Roxie Luna, junior, said. The last pep rally was the traditional senior pep rally. After the senior dance, the seniors acted out a skit of their school years and then gathered to sing the school song. I'm glad we got to have a pep rally for every game. It really helped boost enthusiasms, Stacey Hayner, senior, said. WITH PAINTED FACES, the juniors won many spirit awards in pep rallies. Seniors wore paper hats and freshmen wore ballooms. 14 STUDENT LIFE CHEERING Performing a cheer at a pep rally is Stephan Hayner, sophomore. She was a .IV cheerleader. This was her first year.

They scuba dived off the Koma Coast in July. 16 STUDENT LIFE if i ummer acation A time to relax, to travel, to enjoy From Califomia to New York, students and teachers went on vacations. Summer was for relaxing and being entertained. Each brought something new. Last summer in New Braunfels, while tubing down the river-- along with losing a shoe and my sunglasses--we nearly drowned, Lori Simpkins, senior, said. Some teachers had unique experiences on vacations. One coach went to Virginia. Driving across the I A 'S if-Skiiif ff , Chesapeake Bay bridge tunnel, seeing nothing but water, I felt a tremendous impulse to remain on the bridge, Hugh Shapiro, trainer, said. Sometimes we find out interesting things about the people we meet on vacations. While visiting Cozumel, Mexico, last summer, I was the co-pilot on an 18 passenger plane. Later, the pilot turned out to be the maitre d' at the restaurant, Judy Roy, psycho- logylsociology teacher, said. Some students encountered trouble while traveling out of the country. One student went to Australia to visit and explain the Red Oak Ag program. WhenI got to Australia, my baggage was left in Los Angeles. I had to buy my clothes and I got my luggage two days later, Ronald Morris, sophomore, said. All in all, summer vacations were relaxing and fun. They provided a real break from regular school year routines. R ' 44... REPRESENTING RED OAK at Belair Agriculture High school ln Adelaide, Australia ls Ronald Morris, sophomore.

There's a couple of parties and a dance at school. Beverly Greenwood, junior, said. How about going to the dance on Friday night then on Saturday go to a party? Jennifer Simmons, junior, said. Yeah, that would be fun! Students got together both socially and academically. They got together with friends and classmates to do things they wanted to do or just to study. Getting together at a dance allowed me to talk to friends about my dates. It also let me jump around, dance and just have fun. Sometimes it helped me just to get out of the house, Shelly Moore, sophomore, said. There were more than just social activities on weekends. Some of the high school students felt that their curricular activities were a time to get together. Getting into groups in Ag helped us to learn more and also helped to make the time go by a lot faster. When we worked together we could learn from each other's mistakes artd it helped us to better understand our own mistakes, Theresa Fifield, freshman, said. Pressure helped people get together to learn what improve- ments needed to be made. Getting together for a journalism deadline helped us to see the things that needed to be improved. Instead of the normal one hour class period, we had four or five hours to work on meeting the deadline. During this time it helped us to work, create and make many improvements we ordinarily would not have had time for, Kellie Cole, senior, said. No matter where they were, students got together. They socialized or studied or just came together for fun. STUDYING together are Ann Kostak and Kenny Williams, juniors. They used their lunch period to catch up on their school work. 18 STUDENT LIFE -. VALENTINE'S DANCE Students dance to their favorite tunes at the Valentine's dance held by the juniors.

She was getting ready to go hang out, but where does one go in Red Oak? There was no place in Red Oak to hang out.l went toa friend 's house and partied, Alisha Pritchard, sophomore, said. What altematives were there when there was no place to hang out? Many people went to Mazzio's every Sunday night. Usually after church every Sunday I went out with a bunch of kids to Mazzio's just for the fun of it, Jennie Oliver, junior, said. The Hard Rock Cafe in Dallas was another place many teenagers hung out. It included music, food and an exciting at- mosphere. It was like a trip down a musical memory lane where one could see outfits wom by John Lennon or a guitar by Bryan Adams, Kellie Cole, senior, said. They served outrageous food, like the swordfish, but it was the real fun atmosphere that brought a lot of the people there. Restaurants or fast food joints were social places where people hung out. My life was uneventful before I started going to Cheddar's. Now you would find me there every weekend eating cheese- sticks, James Scott, senior, said Whenever my friends and I went out on weekends, we usually always ended up at Taco Bell. They knew us by name, lVlichelle Kingsley, senior, said. Many people hung out at places just to meet interesting people. Some went to various places depending on what type of people they wanted to hang around with. Speeds was where the action was at. Lots of rockers went there to swing it. Sticks, on the other hand, was pretty slow and mellow and mostly hicks go to Sticks, Margaret Arruda, senior, said. It seems there was only certain places freshmen gathered. Freshmen generally hung out in the bathroom because that's the only place freshmen had rights, Paula Lindstrom, freshtnan, said The lake was a fun place teenagers gathered. One could enjoy the water and sun while scoping the area for looking girls or guys. good About every two weeks, I went to Possom Kingdom Lake to meet interesting people and catch some rays. I enjoyed riding jet skies, going boating and diving off cliffs. The nights were even better because I went to watch the submarine races, Steve Donica, senior, said. Many teenagers went for adventure and cruising up and down the DeSoto strip. Cmising the strip was a way to meet new people and get away from the house. Every weekend I found different places to cn1ise, Traci Eberle, sophomore, said. Different hair styles and funky dances drew people to new places. The Theater Gallery was one of those places in which many people enjoyed going to. Going to the Theater Gallery was a really different experi- ence, Penny Carr, junior, said. Everyone there was punk so there was a lot of people with Mohawks and stuff. It was fun to watch them slam-dance! It was just wild! Hangouts were what added adventure and fun to life. They were places where teenagers met new peole while enjoying different atmospheres. ONE-ACT PLAY students hang out in the drama room. Some are Charla Little, drama teacherg Cheri Ran- som, Margaret Arruda, sen- lorsg Jennie Ollver, junlorg Trudy Pearce, Mary Murphy and Rhonda Poteet, seniors.

She looked like she was from outerspace, but she was really in fashion. Bows and banana clips could be seen in almost every girl's hair and handmade collars adorned their sweatshirts or denim dresses. Karen Schafer, sophomore, even made and sold bows to students as part of her own home business. Guys were wearing suspenders, but not to hold up their pants. Wearing suspenders hanging off their pants was one of the fashion statements made by all of the sharpest dressers. Not one guy would have been seen wearing spandex pants, last year's fad. On a weekend night at midnight, students went to The Rocky Horror Picture Show. In this show the audience threw rice and toast while yelling lines of the movie like, Janet, Rocky, Bullwinkle! SUSPENDERS Showing off his fashionable suspenders is Jacob Carr, senior. He talks to Susie Ruard, freshman, between classes. ROCKY HORROR Showing off their Rocky Horror T-shirts are Jason Dodd and Mike Sullivan, seniors. They have seen the show numerous times. 22 STUDENT LIFE Rocky Horror is a good way to relieve your tensions. You can behave there like you can't anywhere else, Jason Dodd, senior, said. We all go, have a good time and be as crude as possible. Students who attended concerts purchased T-shirts of the Monkeys, Bon Jovi or the Beastie Boys. It was 'in.' No one listened to Prince, Sheila E., Motley Crue or the Bangles anymore. These once popular artists are out because they don't have new albums. I like the Beastie Boys' follow-up songs, said junior James Holt. The most popular television stars were Bruce Willis, Michael J. Fox and Cybill Shepherd of Moonlighting, Most students watched The Cosby Show, Family Ties, Perfect Strangers and Moonlighting. Still popular was Miami Vice with Don Johnson. Max Headroom was watched along with the singing raisins. Only the outcrowd stayed in the room to watch the Frontier Ford commercials with people dressed up like elves, leprechauns and flowers. Scantron was popular with the teachers. By making multiple choice questions, teachers could feed answer sheets into the machine and have the papers graded in a matter of minutes. Scantron was unpopular with students who had to fill in little tiny circles for each question answered. Not only did students have to fill in these circles, but they had to have a number two pencil to answer the questions. Scantron is out with me. It takes me more time to fill in the tiny circles than to answer the questions, Lori Simpkins, senior, said. Most students will do the 'in' thing just to feel comfortable, even if it means looking like they're from outer space. I probably would have never picked up some of the things I wore or did if I didn't see other people doing them. I guess that is the way it goes. What is 'in' one year, will be out the next, Kara Kolthoff, junior, said. f. . .. V . ok. 1 K g? .

Not all are going home, however. This is a regular routine that many students go through every day to get to work on time after a long day of school. Attending school and working at a part-time job can put the pressure on, but some students have no choice. All of the students who work have different reasons for doing so. Some students work to save money. l'm saving up the money I make by working for college, Kara Kolthoff, junior, said. She works as a cashier at Minyards. Kara usually works five or six days a week.

I work to pay my entry fees for rodcos, Don Fullerton, junior, said. He also works at Stanford's. Working can prove to be a rewarding and beneficial experience that can help a person throughout his life. ' I'm glad in a way that my parents are making me work for my money. If I didn't, l would always expect people to give me money all my life and I would never learn to earn it, Scott Duerr, junior, said.

He answered student's questions about politics. Good evening... .. nd on the local scene And in the local news tonight, we tune in to Red Oak, Texas. Estimated population of Red Oak at this time is 3,000. The city of Red Oak put up the first traffic light this year. The light slowed traffic and probably many wrecks that might have occurred at this four way inter- section. Red Oak also added many new businesses such as Delightful Donuts, Munchics Deli and Cards and More. These became popular places for students. Along with the city of Red Oak, Red Oak High School was making the news. The school has grown a great deal in the past few years. The enrollment was 450 four years ago and it was as high as 810 this year, pushing them up to 4A. John Sullivan, principal, was named Administrator of the Year by the Association .of Texas Professional Educators. He was selected on the basis of a scrapbook, applications and an interview concerning his philosophy of education. Also, the high school received their first bomb threat. Students had to sit in the football stadium' for over an hour. NHS students sold candy during this crisis. Congressman Joe Barton spoke to students in an assembly about past and present politics in April. He spoke of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Students asked him questions about .3 3 spolitics. The high school also had foreign visitors. Joerg Pfluger senior and Birgitte Hansen, junior, were exchange students. Joerg was from Germany and he stayed with English teacher Sandy Morton. Birgitte, from Denmark, stayed with the Worley family in Red Oak. Many clubs took field trips. The Science Club went to NASA in Houston. The Spanish Club visited museums and went to Spanish plays. Drama also went to see a play in Dallas at Dallas Baptist University and FT A went to a convention in Fort Worth. That's all for the local news tonight and that's how it was. Thank you and have a good year. BOMB THREAT Receiving a call from Wynona Hayncy ls John Sullivan, principal. Mrs. Hayncy called hlm after she received the bomb threat ln thc Administration bulldlng. STUDENT LIFE 29 1 0 0 , lee will pla 3, Students play when teacher is away fe.: S 'I When the cat's away, the mice will play. This phrase has been shown too often to be true. In one study hall, the students enjoyed playing with paper footballs when the teacher was not paying attention. In one case, a student would climb the shelves when the teacher wasn't looking, so the other class members would cough to get her attention. One time we took the liberty of re-arranging the room by turning the desks around. Needless to say, the teacher got slightly irked, Carey Fitzgerald, sophomore, said. The mice also played in Coach Ken Wheaton's and Don Power's room. Jason Aydelott, sopho- more, reported that, when Coach Wheaton and Mr. Powers leave their iceboxes, we usually pleased the crowd by raising the temperature to about 85 degrees. The mice played when the cat was away in Coach Teresa Ken- ney's fourth period Health class. We got bored and obnoxious and made gestures behind the sub's back. We also changed seats and sometimes names, SITTING ON THE DESK talking is Ann Hage, senior. She gossips with Tammy Pierce, Sherina Thompson, seniors and Amy Wilson, junior, while the teacher is gone. 30 STUDENT LIFE Michael Fogle, sophomore, said. Maude Sartor's special mouse played behind her back, too. I remember once Corbett Guest was in our fifth period chemistry class and Mrs. Sartor was delivering a meaningful lecture. It was hard to pay attention to her because Corbett was entertaining us by making faces and gestures behind her back, Karen Schafer, sopho- more, said. Marcia Haugarth said that she left her room one day when she had a small class and they hid in the closets. l krtew they were in there so I just played along with them, she said. A lady from the ofliee came in so I told her, 'I can't believe my whole class is sick today.' I let them stay in the closet for about 45 minutes. then I Hnally called them out. That time the cat caught the mouse. COMPARING homework an- swers with Jeff Bailey while the teacher is out is Lori Simpkins.

No more TV, phone, ear or fun Go straight home. Do not stop to talk to Stanley. Do not use the phone. Don't even think about touching the TV dial. And above all, weekends are out completely. When I was grounded you could usually find me sitting at home watching 'Webster' on Friday night, said Michelle Kingsley, senior. I just stayed in my room and listened to the radio while I was grounded, Roy Rogers, sophomore, said. Although listening to the radio and watching television often relieved Ctemporarilyj the boredom of being grounded, sometimes that didn't really help matters. Most students say the longest they had ever been grounded was one month, but there was always an exception to the rule. Chris Miller, sophomore, was grounded for three months. I had a curfew of 10 p.m. but I didn't get home until 2 a.m. and I was driving my parent's car, which at age 14 is not per- missable, Chris said. The agony of being grounded was sometimes relieved early for good behavior. I got off from being grounded because I sweet talked my dad and my mom just forgot, said Stacy Stephens, senior. John Culpepper, senior said at his house a month is a month, no time off! This was the feeling of many parents. There was a large number of parents who used this method of punishment because it was effective and most students took it seriously. I sat at home for four weekends. It was horrible and I began getting desperate. I began cleaning house! said Michelle. Some students found things to catch up on in their extra time. But others sat around thinking of all the fun they could be out having with their friends. Grounding. It was a not-so-much fun part of growing up. - LOUNGING AROUND is Michelle Kingsley, senior, who found in her spare time many articles to read. She kept company with her Gund bear.

The junior- senior prom was held at the Plaza of the Americas in downtown Dallas. The prom began at 8 p.m. followed by a btffet at 8:30 p.m. The buffet ucnsisted of an assortment oi' fiuitf., vegetables and meats. A colorful desert sat at the place of each guest. The attendees sat at tables covered with white table cloths. At each setting was a glass mug with the theme Stand by Me and the date of the prom. Beside each mug was a memory scroll which had the names of the junior and senior class officers plus a poem dedicated to the senior class. These scrolls were a special souvenir added to the memory of the evening. Looking above, the students saw the arches of green and silver balloons as they seemed to be floating in mid-air. The balloons were being held up by the rising excitement in everyone's thoughts as the evening carried on. With the prom came a new tradition, a prom king and queen. The eye-catching couple chosen was Mike Geeslin and Darby Williams, both seniors. After being crowned they danced to That's What Friends are For. Kerri Smith, senior, sang a memorable song, Family of Love, for the senior class. The song brought out teary eyes and many hugs. The prom ended with a flicker of lights and a few waves good bye to bring to a close another year and another memorable prom. X X I 16 was 36 STUDENT LIFE STAND BY ME was the theme of the 1987 prom.

What neat little unusual junk are we selling this week? the members said in unision. We are selling thumb tacks. Students in different clubs and classes are involved in a variety of fund raisers. For example, the freshmen class held a car wash in order to raise money. It was a clean job, said Pat Kirby, president of the freshmen class, but somebody had to do 1t. OEA members had more strenuous tasks as fund-raisers than the freshmen class. We sold raffle tickets for a dinner at Baby Doe's, Kathy Smith, sophomore, said. We also had a car wash and a walk-a- then. The drill team used school spirit as a fund-raiser. We sold stickers for car windows that supported the Hawks, Leslie Webster, sophomore, said. lt was special because we were supportive of the school. FFA sold Valentines carnations for their money-making project. The task took a great amount of time and energy. If you love running into people and wrapping wet carnations, you would have loved this job, but it was worth it, DeAnne Krupinski, freshman, said. The senior class was involved in numerous fund-raisers in order to raise money for the prom and other activites. One of those fund raisers was an Hawaiian dance. It's pretty funny seeing everbody in their hula skirts doing the limbo, said Jacob Carr, senior. The joumalism class did the computer match-up surveys for a fund raiser. It's always fun to watch the studcnt's reactions, said Kathy Scattergood, joumalism teacher. Sometimes they're happy, but most of the time they say things like, 'Oh yuk! Look who I got as number one.' As a result of these and many more money-making projects, members of different clubs were able to go on trips, have parties or just save the money for future members. The benefits were worth the time spent to sell the items. HAWAIIN DANCE The senior class gave an Hawaiian dance for a fund-raiser. It was held in the cafeteria after the first football game.

We all got to get together and talk about what we had been doing this summer, Kendra ll SIX FLAGS Waiting for the Roto Disco to start is Pam Denney. This was one of the many rides riden at Six Flags Senior Night. Kerly said. To raise money for the prom, the seniors had various fund- raisers. A Hawaian dance was held to raise money. Students danced to favorite tunes and parti- cipated in a limbo contest. Seniors were sold to under- classmen and teahcers in the annual slave auction. Seniors also held a car wash and garage sale to help raise more money. At the end of the football season, seniors participated in the senior pep rally. A skit was done by seniors commemorating the past ll years. My favorite school tradition was the senior pep rally. It was a time when we could remember the past years, Brad Perry said. The senior class made reser- vations at the Traildust Steak House in Mesquite. Here, they ate, danced and slid down the slide. The next senior activity was the juniorlsenior prom which was held at the Plaza of the Americas on May 9. The Senior Class rented Cedar Canyon on May 13. They ate a barbeque dinner, swam, played baseball and played volleyball. On May 15, seniors went to the Six Flags senior night where they also got to see the Fabulous Thunderbirds in concert. After the Honors assembly on May 21 that recognized out- standing students, the seniors attended the PTA Luncheon presented by the PTA. They served the seniors dinner and anounced the baby king and queen. After the luncheon, the seniors got to go home instead of going back to school. The luncheon was really nice and l'm glad Mr. Clohnj Sullivan Qprincipalj didn't make us go back to school after the luncheon, Angie Lundy said. Senior parents sponsored a Luau and swim party at Darby's house. Parents provided Hawaiian food and games to entertain the seniors. Eventhough the seniors were busy with many activities they made an exeception for two more activities. Baeculareate was held at the Red Oak Baptist Church and the year ended with Graduation on June 5. t KING AND QUEEN A luncheon was given to the seniors by the PTA.

It was 6:30 a.m. and I felt as if I could sleep for another day. I knew I'd be tired from staying up all night to finish my notecards for my term paper, but I never dreamed I would be that tired. Since it took me so long to dress, I rushed to school so I wouldn't be late to Algebra again. As soon as I opened my car door, all my papers and notecards blew away. Oh, the pain of it all. I frantically chased them across the parking lot. Finally, I caught all the papers and ran to class. Just as I reached the room, the tardy bell rang and, of course, the teacher gave me a detention. This meant I had to get up even earlier the next day. Oh, the pain! The bell rang and I found myself making my way to anatomy. In anatomy I had the privilege of sawing my cat's head open to look at its brain. Pain! All I could think of was that I hoped we weren't having spaghetti for lunch. In my 3rd period English class, I was called to the office. As I walked down the hall, I wondered what I could have done, but I was glad to get out of English. In the office I was informed by my principal that my mini-skirt was too short and I would have to go home and change during lunch. Great! More pain. When I got home, I remembered that I didn't have a house key, but I luckily found an open window. I crawled in and ripped my skin. After lunch, which I didn't get to eat, I raced back to school only to get a speeding ticket A friend spilled water all over me and another teacher griped at me. I gave up. The pain of it all! BREAKING UP In one way or another, students had to endure the pain of broken relationships. Some friends moved away, some boy- friends and girlfriends separated and some graduated leaving special friends behind. l-...M 42 STUDENT LIFE Na+-.Z 7-Trzday.

A Fourth of July festival given by the city of New York was filled with songs, celebrities and fireworks, all honoring the first 100 years of the Statue of Liberty. This was just one of the many events that highlighted the year. In addition to the Fourth of July festival, the people of the Phillipines were also cele- brating. After 20 years of corruptionandscandal,Ferdinand E. Marcos was forced from office by Corazon Aquino, the new president. Aquino was dedicated enough to the people that she faced the political and economic turmoil left by Marcos with SWEET VICTORY New York Mets' Gary Carter is lil'ted ln the air by relief pitcher Hesse Orosco.

The two were married at Westminster Abbey which mustered the pomp and glory of Britain's 920-year old monarchy. Everything has good points as well as bad points. This year was no exception. Unfor- tunately, there were as many bad as there were good. This was a very big time for terrorists. Delivering a response to what President Reagan called the monstrous brutality of Libyan- backed terrorism, the U.S. Air Force and Navy jets attacked tive targets inside Libya under cover of darkness in April. Among the targets was the Libyan Naval Academy located in a suburb of Tripole. In the Soviet Union, American joumalist Nicholas Danniloff was arrested in the streets of Moscow and accused of spying. This incident occured just one week following the arrest 'of Gennady Zakharov, -a Soviet U.N. employee, for spying. Both men were released within weeks and the entire affair set the stage for a superpower Summit meeting in Iceland. In our own country, there is still a growing problem with drugs. On the East Coast, it was called crack. On the West Coast, it was called rock. Whatever its name, it was a refmed, smokable form of cocaine. It may have been the most addictivce narcotic ever sold on the streets of America. Even though there were problems such as terrorism and drug addiction, the happy times, such as the Fourth of July festival and the marriage of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, helped to ease the pain and together they distinguished this year from all the others.

Paper! Paper! Tenn pa- pers, homework. fluency Working with all kinds of paper in the Gilbert Tamez, junior, said. writings. What would be library was an everyday thing for me. Making lists were ways in which students done with all that paper? Shelving books, making copies, writing and organized their activities. Lists also helped Some point during the year came the dreaded tenn paper which included bibliographies, note cards and outlines. It wasn't a big deal like I had built it up to be in my mind, but since I waited to the last minute to finish, it was tough getting everything together, Jennie Oliver, junior, said. Published annually was the literary magazine. It was a collection of student writings from English and Spanish classes chosen by a committee and made into a magazine. This year we had more material submitted and the material was of better quality, Gwynne Gilliam, English teacher, said. Along with shelving books, the library aides had a lot of paper work. Library aides could easily find any information needed for tenn papers and reports. taking library passes, checking books in and out and keeping up with everyone's fines was pan of it, Dana Slay, senior, said. The teacher dictates the beginning of a sentence and the students must write a paragraph without picking up their pens for a four minute period. These were called fluency writings that Englis' teachers gave to help students organize their thoughts in a limited time period. When writing, I needed time to gather my thoughts in a sensible form and not be pressed for time to elaborate on my true thoughts and feelings, Paul Rice, senior, said. Students had many ways of keeping up with their papers. I found it easier to just cram my papers in my book because I did not carry folders. But I also found out I lost several of my papers, in keeping up with homework assignments. Would those students be able to function without them? I had to make lists every once in a while. Sometimes I had about 30 things going on at once. If I didn't write them all down I know that I would have forgotten them. Laurie Haake, junior and class president, said. Dealing with paper was a part of every students' daily routine. It was called the paperchase. CATCHING UP ON HOMEWORK! Doing het' English homework during her spare time is Cathy Grlgsby, junlor.'

K routine consisted of sitting in the chair, listening to a lecture, doing homework, and then taking a test over the material. But then there were several classes that were very different from the regular. Say farewell to norms. l One of these classes was architecture. The students drew houseplans and other drawings. tfhey never had a test. Architectural drawing was different from he regular classes because everyone's project ,vas different. Bill Miller, science and drafting teacher, said. Another unusual class was drama. Student f t , groups were up practicing in different parts of the room or performing on the stage. lt was definitley not a 'structered classroom.' It was fun and not that hard. Some people thought it was a 'blow oft' class. It was not. We did short scenes, we picked the ones we liked, we memorized, and practiced. We were always doing something, Nichoal Berryman, freshman, said. , , Another unique and sometimes nerve-racking class was Journalism. Everyone did a different job: paste up, typesetting, printing pictures.

A class which was extremely different from the normal math or Englih class was art. In what other class did one draw ? lt was more creative and you were able to make up things, Brandon Fridge, freshman, said. Choir was also a class which was away from the normal routine. Choir was unique because in what other class could one sing? We went to many different competitions and we also performed in concerts for the public, Angie Craig, senior, said. None' of these classes had anything in common with the normal, everyday courses. In these classes, students truley said farewell to norms.

Its kind of scary when we went to the graduation party the next year Quite a lesson learned abig mistake. Whether xii ff NJA L,y, it is just giving up on a small project or quitting something as important as high school, not accomplishing anything can affect a person's life in a negative way. The following are three accounts from students who have had to deal with quitting. Dawn Klein I was a junior classified as a sophomore in the first of my second semester: when I decided to quit. I wanted to stay in school, but there was no way I could pass I was failing just about all of my classes. My parents, friends and brother all told me to stay in school. They said that I would need an education in the future. I thought by being out of school I would get to do what I wanted to, but I didn't. With all my extra spare time I was getting in more trouble than before. So my parents told me I had to get a job. I decided to come back to school because I figured I needed an education. I'm going to summer school so I'll be a junior next year. The most important thing that I've learned from this is to stick with things that are hard to me. Kevin Phelps I thought it was the thing to do. A lot of my friends were doing it and making lots of money. So about a year ago I quit school and I got a good job making 88.50 an hour. I was a I7 year old kid trying to make it on my own. I had to match what my father paid on the bills. It was tough. So, for practically a year I was living on my own. It was about two years ago when I catne back. I made a promise to my mother before she passed away that I would go back to school...and so I did. To anyone wanting or thinking about quitting school I would say stay in. It does not matter how good quitting school looks at the time, it is tough, really tough. Not finishing school also narrows your job opportunities. With a .diploma you can get into just about any field you want. Without one, you're stuck in only the ones that will take you and theyre usually little jobs. Finishing school is the only way to go. Sean Campbell I almost made the biggest mistake of my life near t.he end of my junior year in 85-86. I started partying way too much and my grades 56 ACADEMICS you re passing with a 70 average and when you turn around two weeks late, you have a 35 average and laugh about it. I actually thought it was funny that I had a O for a grade in Algebra. I hung the report card on my wall. It was not that hard to figure out that I was not going to pass. I quit. Quitting was the easy part. Finding a job was a different story. I wanted a decent paying job since I had the chance to work all day. Who wants to tum over grease-burgers and scrub asphalt with a little yellow plastic brush for 83.35 an hour? Not me. That is basically when I found out how important it was to have a diploma. When 66 A person has to set and accomplish his goals to be an adult. When he quits, he loses. He can- not be an adult then. ---Sean Campbell, junior 93 you are looking for a job, there is more discrimination against non-high school graduates than minorities. I looked at my options carefully. I thought about the G.E.D., but it is just not the same. A lot of people say that they are going to get their G.E.D. and then go on to junior college. That is not likely. If they can't make it through high school, what is going to give them the drive to go through college? If a person is thinking about quitting school, he needs to stop for a minute and think some more. He needs to do what I did and take a long look at his options, evaluate his thoughts and, most of all, take a good hard look at the consequences. I have noticed from my friends, my acquaintances and myself that one of the reasons we quit was to grow up, get a job and be independent. It does not work like that. The 16, 17 or 18 years we teenagers have been alive, few of us have had the chance to accomplish something on our own, without any help from Mom or Dad. When I graduate I will have that under my belt. A person has to set and accomplish his goals to be an adult. When he quits, he loses, right? He can not be an adult then. My best friend quit during his junior year also. It had never really bothered him until and he saw everyone he went to school with. Some of them he had been to school with since kindergarten. He got so depressed that we ended up leaving. We were talking the next day and he said the disappointment was unbearable. He knew how he had screwed up. Seeing and hearing his depressing story really made me think about what I was doing in quitting myself. I I know I can not stop anyone from doingi something they want to do. The only people who can do that are themselves. All I ask is that some thinking is done before they make such a drastic decision. In all sincerity, I would bet my life that in 10 years any highi school dropouts will be looking back and regretting their mistakes. y A WAY OUT Too many students think that quitting school and getting at job is a way out of trouble. It usually turns out to be only the beginning. rw easy. - . 1 ' - ,.... r ..,...,.., 'wwf '51 il' -Qu I A -. 9 ' '58- fm-sqm I Photo by Chris Miller ACADEMICS 57 I omework, tests...it never ends In math, we took a simple problem and asked lots of - questions about it. ow not to study f ti Thf0U8h0Ul hls' problem on the board.

Different students had different ways of doing it. Some manipulated the teacher. All I had to do was look like I was half way paying attention. If the teacher asked me a question, I told herI didn't understand what she was talking about so that she would explain it more thoroughly, Rusty Bray, junior, said. Just make sure and study a little before the test. Books are too heavy to take home. Some students used similar methods. Some were sneakier. In math, we took a simple problem that everybody knew and asked lots of questions about it, Felicia Hitt, junior, said. A great deal of the period was spent working that their personal life. I asked them something personal and they started talking about their families and they just kept talking, Rebecca Young, junior, said. Other similiar methods worked, too. In govemment, if we didn't like the lecture, we just asked the teacher about a current event we heard on the news and there went the majority of the period, Ann Marie Hage, senior, said. Study hall, which was at class that should be used for studying, was hardly ever used for that purpose. In study hall, I played paper football, talked, slept and coughed loud so the teacher wouldn't hear the video game I was playing, a real drag, said Theresa Kennard, sophomore. Other- students had activities that they enjoyed that could take the place of studying. I enjoyed playing my instrument much more than studying. It was fun and a lot easier than studying, Gilbert Tamiz, junior, said. There were always ways to get out of the grueling task of studying. And there will always be students that invent new ones.

The drama class was always busy working on their one-act during part of the year. Many students were rewarded for their work. I really enjoyed being on the one-act. I loved working with Ms. CCharlaj Little and I even won an award, Amber King, sopho- more, said. During the year most English classes had to read at least two novels.

During marching season, the band went to U.I.L. where they did not receive a perfect rating, but rated well for their first year at 4A. Our marching band was small, but we tried our best and we hope to do even better next year, Kim Fleeman, sophomore, said. The band also marched in Founder's Day and the Homecoming Parade. During solo and ensemble contest more than half of the members participated. Almost everyone who went made an excellent rating, said band director Steve Van Winkle. Several of the soloists went to State. There were three ensembles and one of them made a perfect rating. Working after school and practicing for over three months, the perfect rating was well deserved, added Mr. Van Winkle. The ensemble with the highest rating featured Dan Murphy, Brent Edwards, seniors, Birgitte Hansen, junior and Kristina Rutledge, freshman. Then on May 30 they went to State. During concert season, the band got an excellent rating at UIL. They -started preparing for their contest in January. No one was into practicing as long and as hard as we did, but all of our hard work paid off, Gilbert Tamez, junior, said. Band members also performed three conceit contest songs for the band boosters and sold desserts to help pay for their 1988 summer trip. The concert included a special surprise. Dan Murphy got a pie thrown into his face for selling the most tickets to the concert. Our band has grown over the years in both quality and quantity. I am very proud of our band. They have worked very hard this year, Mr. Van Winkle commented. Mr. Van Winkle has been teaching at Red Oak for five years.

The FTA club sold carnations for Valentine's Day to raise money. The members had to be at school at 6 a.m. to prepare camations. The carnations were sold for S2 each. Each color had a different significance. Red meant 'I love you,' pink meant 'I like you,' yellow meant 'secret admirer' and white meant 'friendship.' The money raised helped pay for the state convention held Feb. 20-21. FTA members also selected secret pals who were teachers. Members sent small gifts and cards to their secret pals at special occasions all year. At the end of the year, FTA elected new officers. They also had an end-of-the-year party. This party was held at junior Tammy Senter's house. Tammy was the president of the FTA. The sponsors were Donna Grimm, Gwynne Gilliam, English teachers and LexAnn Dodson, registrar. FT A was a valuable asset to the school, Miss Grimm said. CARNATION SALES Wrapping carnations for Valentlne's Day takes time.

You put the money in this Penny Campaign jar. The money goes to help the funds for the different activites the council is planning this year. Wow! That sounds pretty awesome! I've got a couple of dollars, so let's go put 'em in! The Penny Campaign was successful. The Council raised more than S700. Some of this money paid for the Homecoming parade, which started at the junior high and wound around through Red Oak to the high school. This year was the first time the Student Council was responsible for the parade, Natalie Duggins, senior said. Some of the council's money went to pay for the crowns and flowers also, Judy Hemker, Student Council sponsor and English teacher, said. Other projects unrelated to Homecoming were also held.

She knew her grades were good enough to get in, but she was still worried. The suspense was killing her. Finally, her name was called. She proudly walked down to stand with the other inductees. This year NHS inducted 13 new members. The National Honor Society is an organization in which students have to maintain an 85 average. NHS is based on how much input a student puts in school. These students must be cooperative with the teachers and participate in school activities. I believe the students that are inducted into NHS like to be a part of something that values so much honor and I also believe they are a competitive group, Maude Sartor, Chemistry teacher and NHS sponsor, said. All NHS members sold candy to raise money for scholarships. A total of 33,000 was raised. To receive a scholarship, students had to be seniors. They filled out an application and were examined by a 82 oRGAN1zAr1oNs to earn mone committee. This committee was made up of two juniors that were members of NHS one teacher and two Red Oak residents. S1,000 was given away to one two-year student, two two-year students recieved S500 and four one-year students received S250. NHS was honored on June 2 with an end-of-school party given by Deann Cockerham and her family.

FFA went from Vocational Agriculture to Agricultural Science. And among the new faces was Rodney Finch, the new Agricultural Science instructor. I try to teach students things they need to know in order to be productive citizens, Mr. Finch said. The new changes in technology force the every day farmer and the agri- businessman to look to us, today's agriculture students, for the answers of tomorrow. The FFA had an extremely busy year. Class work entailed varying degrees of animal science, plant and soil science and a very detailed course in horticultural landscape and design. SODDING GRASS for the new junior high ls the AG I class. This was one of the many volunteer projects that the club did. 84 ORGANIZATIONS ln fact, the agriculture classes completely landscaped the new junior high and administration buildings, Mr. Finch said. The FFA was represented in the stock show winner's circle. Exhibitors showed at Ft. Worth, Houston and numerous local shows. Students also participated in leadership contests and on livestock judging teams. All of these activities helped to build self-confidence and self esteem. We hope that the courses offered in Agricultural Science offered a variety of interest to many students. This year we had a of FFA members at 112 record number members strong, Mr. Finch said.

With this in mind, the stage was set for good natured campaigning for selection of officers and friendly hazing for initiation which included anything from painted faces to designer trashbag modeling. Having begun on a happy note, the year continued with fund-raising activities to raise money to fund the year's activities. The FUND-RAISERS, a big part of every year in OEA, consisted of selling nachos and many other projects. Ready to serve are Kim Asheraft and Leanna Ross, seniors and Gail Zander, sponsor, as Jeff Borders, sophomore, contributes to the OEA cause. OEA INITIATION this year consisted of everything from wearing garbage bags to having their faces painted. Rebecca Gonzalez, sophomore, was one of the lucky inductccs. activity-packed year money was raised by a car wash, nacho sales, a ten mile walk-a-thon and ended with a successful raffle of a dinner for two to Baby Doe's. Having fun and raising money was essential, but OEA students learned valuable skills for persuing vocations in office related jobs. These skills were sharpened by competing in UIL competition. The students successfully competed at area, state and national levels. The officers of OEA were Leanna Ross, senior and president, Amy McMillen, sophomore and vice-presidentg Kim Armstrong, secretary, Amy Alexander, treasurer, Renee Wells, historian, all seniors and Deanna Carpenter, junior and sergeant at arms. . 1-V - . .--.-s.-f:,',-,.,m.:- nz.-sv sea-vue.

The team had to overcome many disadvantages. The Hawks faced larger teams with faster and more experienced players. While facing larger teams, they cooperated and had a good attitude on and off the field. Attitude, confidence, work habits and desire to win were basically what we improved on, senior quarterback Mike Hinton said. Physical strength of the team didn't really change much. The new coaching staff is the Setting goalsg startwmtmm, reason we improved. In pre-season they showed that they could strive successfully with their wins over Quinlan, Justin Norhtwest and Alvarado. During the game against Waxahachie the Hawks realized that they could compete with a 4A team. A play that was effective against the Indians was the outside 77. The Hawks were able to stop the offense by getting into the backfield quickly. Waxahachie was a tough team because it was the first game we played in 4A game. When we realized we could beat them we ran out of time, John Culpepper, senior defensive tackle, said. While trying to compensate for their small numbers, the coaches had the players learn more than one position. Also during the season the players worked on goals with the new coaching staff. Some of their goals were working on attitude, confidence, trusting each other and building character which lead to their new motto, We Believe. AFTER RECEIVING the play, Hinton huddles the players. Hinton passed for about 900 yards as quarter- hack. BLOCKING ON the line Chawn Liles, senior, 13533, takes an Indian lineman out while Mike Hinton, senior, Gill, hands the ball to Jimmy Brooks, junior, 111333. Waxahachie won.

They had been a great deal of help to the JV team, although the team still had a lot of taient. The Hawks tinished the season with a 2-5 district record. Due to the Boss of players by injuries and by the promotion of players to the Varsity team, we failed to have a winning season, center Jason Aydelott, sopho- more, said. The Freshman team also had a competitive season. As the guys became more familiar with new offense, they began to put more points on the scoreboard. The offenseaveraged 18.2 points per game for the season and 28 points per game in the last tive games. The defense consistently did a good job throughout the season with three shut-outs and only giving up an average of 11.6 points a game, Coach Jim Ledford said. This year was a good year, but if we all stick together next year we do even better, Preston Smith, freshman, said. iiffiT'.fam.,..' .a'L.sewM' .K 4 A ' I ' f I gt. I-H .

Flrsts S.:5LStfta'tett'.'z,':,.':s.:'e The girls and boys Varsity basketball teams began their seasons with some changes. The changes included both teams getting new coaches and changing the girl's pen name Mojo Hawks to the Lady Hawks. The girls team had the best season of the past seven years. The highlight of the season was when the Lady Hawks played better in the second game against Ennis and only lost by 4 points. At the beginning of the year, the team was weak in two areas. Their weaknesses were passing and basketball thinking, but with hustle and hard work they were able to overcome these problems. The toughest competitors were Wilmer-Hutchins, Ennis and Corsicana. They were tough competitors because they had straight basketball programs, more athletes, a larger number of students and more facilities for the kids, Coach Mike Leidecker Said. The most improved players of the season were Suzanne Evans and Kristin Ashley, juniors.

The highest scoring players were Ricky Eubank, junior, with 305 points and Mike Sullivan, senior, with 315 points.

We had a well balanced attack from both the inside game and the outside game. That was our biggest strength, Coach Kwapil, said. We improved at the middle of the season and Coach Kwapil has helped us a great deal along the way, Kim McMi1lian, sophomore and guard, said. There were several players that improved on the boys freshmen team through the season. They were Jason Sneed, Mark Ryer, Bill Miller and Mark James, freshmen. The best rebounders were Joey Brindell, Mike Gardner, Jay Autrey, Chad Forbes, Barry Bourassa, freshmen. The highest scorers were David Sullivan, freshman, Forbes, Autrey and Miller.

We had several personal bests. Overall the team competed very well, Coach Ken Wheaton said. Some of the strong runners for Red Oak were Tobey Morey and Jacob Carr, both seniors. Morey was a regional qualifier in the sprints. Some of his times were 10.43 in the 100 meter dash and 21.6 in the 200 meter. Carr qualified for regionals in high jump with a jump of 6 feet 7 inches.

Teams tear up new district , P rf' it g Hlgh goals ggfflegyriirgglsgfgrsthiidon This year both golf and powerlifting went up against the odds and they were able to score well in the new district. The golf team placed third in dirtrict and the powerlifting went for indi- vidual benefits and strength. The golf team placed third in district this year out of six. This is considered a good ranking since most teams we played were experienced 4A and 5A schools, Joey Wilson, head golf coach, said. The girls golf team was more competitive this year because it consisted of more experienced players. They were Michelle Kingsley, Kellie Cole and Kristin Wyatt, seniors and Janene Mitchell and Felicia Hitt, juniors. We really improved on our putting and chipping and that really helped improve our scores, Cole said. The boys golf team did not score as high as the girls, but still maintained scores. At every tournament we were able to better our games by 10 to 15 points usually, Mark Stegcr, junior, said. The team consisted of Stegar and Scott Duerr, juniorsg Marcus Duggins and Chris Johnson, sophomores and Walt Miles and Chad Wommack, freshmen. How can l build up my strength become more agile and keep lit? asked the freshman. Simple, replied a senior, Join powerliftingf' Many students participating in this sport were looking for answers to the above question when they started out. Troy Foster, junior and powerlifter, joined powerlifting for many of those reasons. As a feshman three years ago, l was asked by a senior if I wanted to join powerlifting, kind of give it a try. I did and have been competing for three years, Foster said. Chawn Liles, senior and powerlifter, said he joined power- lifting because he liked the idea of lifting weights for sport and fun at the same time. We work with a cycling pro- cess based on weight percen- tages. There were three basic lifts we used. They were the bench press, deadlift and squat, Coach Hugh Shapiro said. But besides all of this exercise, a proper diet was needed con- taining carbohydrate and protein levels. Unfortunately though, power- lifting wasn't able to be as competitive as the previous year. The kids who participated in powerlifting last year just kind of lost interest, Liles said. Powerlifting and golf teams both hope to be even stronger next year. I5 if POWERLIFTING G ra' , .

Alright! I'll call him up and ask him if he wants to study with me tonight, she thought with a smile starting on her face. Many of the students have studied with a friend for something, whether just home- work or a major test. I have trouble with both English and Math. Last year l began to study with different friends that have the same problems and together we can work things out, Allison Risky, junior, said. When you study with a friend it's more fun than studying by yourself because you get bored studying by yourself, said Mark James, freshman. Some people might just want a good excuse to get out of the house or see that fine guy in the English class. I like it when me and Clete have time to study together because we can take breaks and go play football, Jimmy Funderburk, Gray, Tunisha Grigsby, Kathy Grigsby, Kris Gutierrez, Michelle Haake, Laurie Hage, Tony Ha.ll, Mark Hamilton, Roma 5- I 4 Asa. :CW I r ' ' qw thx .

Other people may not have any bad classes, but they want to help their friends out. I don't have trouble in many classes but I like studying with others that do have troubles in classes. It gives a good feeling inside, Debra Wall, freshman, said. Some people need to help each other. Maybe one person is good in math. and the other is good in English. English and History are the subjects I have a lot of problems in, said Kathy Brindle, junior. When I study with a friend, l can understand things better and it helps to know I'm not the only one who has trouble. I can concentrate more and understand better about what I'm studying with a friend. said Chad Whammack, freshman. Studying with a buddy can liven up an otherwise dull activity. It can also help a student's grades. ' t ' I 1 1 I A iff at 5 Q .. t ' Q 55? 1 if . 7- A J ., A . F .

She went to the kitchen and looked for food for breakfast, but noticed that it was a little late for cereal, so she looked for the lunch meat and bread instead. After tuming on the TV and watching a couple of soap operas, she plopped down into the recliner as the phone rang. It was her best friend. She wanted to go shopping. Sounded like fun so they planned their day off. Students found different ways of spending a student holiday. Most of their time was spent on fun things. I usually met my friends and went out and got in trouble, Kim Brooks, sophomore, said. Some students got together with friends or tried to sleep late. I ate at a restaurant if I could get together with my friends, Gwen Gaston, freshman, said. And some students worked on their day off. I went to work with my dad and then came FISHING is something that some stu- dents do on their day off. Rick Turner, junior, enjoys fishing in a small pond. K a da off home and played basketball, said Mark Steger, junior. I usually worked on my '55 Chevy, Brad Butler, freshman, said. Some people usually planned their day off ahead of time. And it was pleasurable. I went to play golf at Country Gold Country Club in Kemp, Texas, Chris Johnson, sophomore, said. I spent my time at the mall, Nikki Curry, junior , said. Every student did their own thing, but each one followed their own interests. OEA sponsored a car wash for a fund- raiser. Gail Zander, sponsorg Kim Armstrong, Cheri Ransom and Cindy Smith, seniors, work hard washing a car. :ii 134 JUNIOR J SKIING ON THE SLOPES Having some fun are Kellie Cole, seniorg Felicia Hitt, juniorg Pam Denney and Jorge Pflueger, seniors.

Everybody at least once in their lives have had to do chores, whether it's at home or work and the students at Red Oak are no I've been doing chores since I was 11 years old, Gwen Gaston, freshman, said.

I cleaned inside or outside, but I didn't get - an allowance for it, Scott Coarse, junior, My parents said that if I didn't do the dishes or clean the living room, I wouldn't get any money for the weekend, said Doug Parents weren't as bad as they were made out to be. They were just trying to teach I do understand why my parents have me do all the chores that I had to do and I love them for it, Stacey York, sophomore, Of course nobody liked to do chores but doing things around the house helped parents out.

Hey, Freshman, Come here and carry my tray! These were some of the first words heard by freshmen as they entered high school on Sept. 2, 1986. Hearing an upperclassman shout out these words brought out the tnie meaning of fear for some freshmen. A few upperclassmen said I had to carry their trays, but I sometimes refused even though I was kind of scared of getting beat up by a mob, Jermey Arterberry said. People carried mounds of trays ranging from two to 30 for days at a time. Tray carrying has been one of the most popular initiations of the year, Dwayne Riley said. Other freshmen got the pleasure of pushing pennies and dimes around the halls with their noses. Kelly Tulley and Brain Maitland really enjoyed this sport, even when the going got tough. Many students said their first impression of high school was that it was too small and overcrowded. Many others said their first impulse had been to run and hide. The student body size is okay, but the school complex does need to be enlarged, says Lori Simpkins, senior. MANY FRESHMEN, such as Gavin Maxwell, found themselves spending their lunch period carrying upperelassmen's trays. Some freshmen had to carry 20 trays or more. Creigl1ton, Larry L ' Davis, Stanley ' I , I . f I Denney, Dewayne Some freshmen looked at high school as a proving ground. The proving ground was used to test the new recruit's skill at avoiding the masses of upperclassmen. The groups of upperclassmen didn't bother me, but I still was cautious, said Brandon Fridge. Some upperclassmen disagreed with the initiation at high school. It could ruin a freshman's mental fix or high school, says Tim Dockins, senior. Others agreed that Red Oak had a fairly milc initiation program. One of the more appealing aspects tc becoming a freshman was... freedom! The freedom made all the initiations worthwhile. 1.

Steve who? she says calmly as if she lid not know who he is. ' Steve Johnson, you know the guy who ou have been following to class everyday. Oh yeah. I didn't expect to hear from ou. Have you called to ask me to see a iovie with you Friday night at 8 p.m.? We11, yeah, I did Will you go? I don't know. I have to think about it. I must look at my calendar. Hold on a minute. Just then, Steve hears a blood curdling scream. says Jane, I'll go. Good. I will see you then. Two weeks later, Jane and Steve were going steady. Their relationship lasted for two months. Here at Red Oak, many students had dates that ended up as long-temt relationships. On the other hand, some were disappointing and embarrassing dates. The most embarrassing date I had was the time I went out with my boyfrieud,Jeff, and we were on our way to Dallas, Y. remembered Dayna Wells, senior. We were at a red light and as he leaned over to kiss me he let his foot off of the brake. We hit the truck in front of us, which just happened to be a sheriff. For many students in order to be allowed to date a certain person they have to accomplish strange feats. I got to go out on my first date because my dad lost a pool game, said Christy Hayes, freshman. My father told me that the only way I could go out with Gregg was if he won a pool game against my father. It was a close game, but Gregg won. Many students have been on dates they they would rather forget. This guy told me we were going out to a nice restaurant after the dance, said Jennifer Walker, freshman. We ended up going to McDonalds. Dating is a pasttime that can have several different outcomes. But despite the risks, students will continue to play the dating game. SURPRISED AND AMAZED are Kristi Elleven, junior and Jeff Bailey, senior. The lunchroom is one of the main places to visit. WALKING TO CLASS are Jamie Ylortel, freshman, Rodney Hale, soph- omore, April Leizure and Eddie More, freshmen.

He looks at the time. lt's 6:30 a.m. That leaves him with an hour to get to school, so he figures he can sleep another 30 minutes. Unfortunately, he sleeps 45 minutes leaving him only 15 minutes to get to school so he rushes all over the house trying go get ready, get his books together and get out the door. Running to the car he has two minutes to get to school. He rushes to get there with just 10 seconds before the bell, he makes it to his desk. This is a day- to-day routine for some students. Routines. An at-school routine for a few freshman girls may also occur on a daily basis. , Every day all my friends and I go to the restroom to fix our hair and put on our makeup. We never skip a day, stated Meridith Tilley, freshman. Sometimes students have every day duties. While doing the chores, accidents may happen. I have to go to feed my horse everyday after school. First, I have to go to the building that keeps the electricity to turn off the electrical fence. Once I forgot to turn it off and shocked myself, Kim Worrell, junior, said. An A-lunch routine for a sophomore girl includes eating the same thing every day. She is devoted to this. Since the begining of the year I've made it a habit to eat chocolate chip cookies and drink chocolate milk for lunch. If they're out of either of these, I don't eat at all, Kerri Clemans,sophomore, said. An every day routine for a girl's transportation may lead to a walk to find someone. Every time I want to start my car I have to find someone to hold the wires in my car, Kelli Carter, junior, stated. Every day routines start early for some. One has a schedule that starts early. Every moming when I first wake-up I go straight to the kitchen and drink a glass of lemonade, Christy Carter, sophomore, said. Routines also begin after school lets out. Some are a pleasure. Every day after school I talk to and feed my two kittens, Micky and Muffin, stated Jennifer Walker, freshman. If the teachers knew some of the routines they might be upset. Every Tuesday I fall asleep in Chemistry while we're taking notes, Gilbert Tamez, junior, said. Routines. They're a way of life. Some routines are more pleasant than others.

If One morning Jennifer woke up and remembered that her cousin was supposed to send her a letter, so she ran outside to check the mail and a really cute boy that she liked drove by. She looked down and realized that she still had her nightgown on. I've never been so embarrassed in my life, she said. Embarrassing moments are just, well, embarrassing. Moments are even worse in front of a lot of people, like in a restaurant. I will never forget the moment my dad and I went out to eat. I was trying to look older than I was, said Jaquelin Lovell, junior. I leaned back in my chair and it fell straight down and my dress flew up in my face. My most embarrassing moment was in the fourth grade, Charlene Wisdom, sophomore, said. I had a skirt on and under it I had a slip on.

He told her to get in the house. I will never forget that moment, Tammy said. I was at the mall one day and I got on the escalators to go upstairs. A cute guy got on behind me and before I got off I tripped and fell. The guy behind me was laughing. I will never be more embarrassed than I was that day, Sheranda Hicks, sophomore, said. Some embarrassing moments can be pretty upsetting, like dropping an arm load of books in a quiet library, grabbing the wrong person thinking it's your mom or best friend or having your little brother or sister answering the telephone -and yelling all through the house, It's a boy! OOOPS! About to enter the forbidden zone, Windy Collard, freshman, opens the door to the BOYS bathroom. The two bathrooms are rlght next to each other. I x, 1, 1 N M 3 V. I 5, ' ,yy it .

He is the man who directs traffic for the students. He is the man who gives kids guidance. He is the principal, Mr. John Sullivan. He has two assistants. John Sullivan My love for school and people determined my choice of a profession, stated Mr. Sullivan. He began teaching elementary P.E., and for fifteen years he was a sports coach. Prior to coming to the Red Oak High School as principal, he was the principal at Red Oak Junior High School. 'Born in Macomb, Illinois, he was one out of 11 children. While growing up, Mr. Sullivan worked on his family's farm. In high school, he was academically, physically and socially active. Although I did well in basketball, I always enjoyed playing football more, he said. Upon graduating from high school, he attended college on a basketball scholarship. To relieve stress, Mr. Sullivan jogs and talks to students. He also enjoys track and has an interest in automobiles. Mr. Sullivan is happily married with two sons. I enjoy Red Oak and it gets better every day because of the students, declared Mr. Sullivan. A person leaves his mark in this world by not how much money he has, but by how he treats others, Mr. Sullivan said. His advice to students is to develop in both academics and extracurricular activities. David Biggerstaff The high school would not run as smoothly if it were not for the two friendly, about students caring assistant principals, David Bi ggerstaff and Suzy Taylor. A glimpse into his background would reveal that Mr. Biggerstaff, a UTA graduate, decided during a church service to work with young people. After hearing the minister say that young people are the greatest asset to the world, I decided to work with them, Mr. Biggerstaff said. This led him to coach sports on a path from Oklahoma to the Gulf of Mexico. While growing up, my favorite sport was baseball. But when coaching, I enjoyed football and track, said Mr. Biggerstaff, Aside from sports, Mr. Biggerstaff spends time with family and listens to contemporary Christian music. My favorite artist is Dallas Holm and Praise followed by Sandi Patti and Larnelle Harris, he said. Mr. Biggerstaff also advises students to be a part of school as much as possible and know Jesus Christ personally. Suzy Taylor A love of teaching a Bible class determined my career choice, said Mrs. Taylor. After receiving a Bachelor of Science degree at MacMurray College and a Masters degree in Education Administration at Texas Tech, she entered the teaching profession which led to the position she now has. As a sports spectator, football takes first place, confirmed Mrs. Taylor. Needlework and crafts also fill up her spare time. Don't grow up too fast, advises Mrs. Taylor, and learn the skills that you will need in life.

Along with being a teacher there is much stress involved. Suzie Miller, Math teacher, likes reading, sewing and cooking. She relieves herself of stress by exercising. I chose teaching as a profession because I like working with kids, Mrs. Miller said. Marcia Haugarth, choir teacher, says she likes to sing in the church choir. Like Mrs. Miller, she says reading is strictly pleasure. l have no time for stress, Miss Haugarth said. Instead of trying to get rid of stress, Don Powers, science teacher, learns to live with rt. I enjoy my kids and keeping my yard looking very nice, Mr. Powers said. Some might be surprised to know that Donna Grimm, English teacher, enjoys going to all kinds of concerts. My reason for choosing this profession is becasue I love the kids and enjoy the vacations, Miss Grimm said. Ilene Beggs, homemaking teacher, relieves her stress differently from the others. She reads God's Word, the Bible. I love going to church. It is such a great comfort, Mrs. Beggs said. Mrs. Beggs also loves to water ski. Although teaching is a very stressful job, many of the teachers at Red Oak are happy with their profession.

Approximately 90 supportive personnel of Red Oak I.S.D., such as secretaries, bookkeepers, tax personnel, teacher aids, bus drivers and cafeteria and maintenance staff participated in the conference. The conference was designed to help participants learn how to communicate effectively, both personally and professionally. The paraprofessionals of Red Oak l.S.D. are a very important part of the district communication within the schools. Each staff member has a certain job which helps the school run smoothly and on schedule. The Red Oak High School Cafeteria is full of hard working and caring women who take time out of their day to try and fulfill the nutritional needs of the students. The bus drivers arrive early in the mornings to make sure all students have transportation available to enable them to get to school for classes on time. The maintenance and office personnel help keep our school running well inside and out. The maintenance staff keeps the school in condition to easily mantain its approximate 800 students. The office personnel organizes the school records and other necessary items to make things easier on teachers and administrators. This enables teachers to plan their daily assignments and leaming tasks. The Red Oak I.S.D.'s paraprofessionals are an important and special group of people that make things easier on everyone from adminstrators to students. CLEANING UP is Mae and John Price, custodians of Red Oak High School. Mr. and Mrs. Price have been cleaning up at Red Oak for two years.
