Logan Terry Many sophomores still feel insecure about their futures. Often sophomores, like the freshmen, feel inferior to their upperclassmen i l peers. For this reason many sophomores lean towards vocations in which they would feel superior and respected. J l l d Disc Jockey: Many juniors take advantage of the opportunity to inform people of their maturity through jobs where they will be heard by many. Chuck Smith Seniors, the rulers of the school, become power-hungry as they strive to be a success before they enter college. These students set very high goals for themselves, and will do anything to achieve them. Power is a key word in the lives of these students. President of the United States: Seniors have no problems feeling superior, therefore being elected President would probably be no big deal. Tamara Avery What Do You Want to Be? When You Grow Up s students start high school, they begin to consider their futures more seriously. They begin to define their goals, and analyze their capabilities. Once their values have been defined, they begin to see the various careers available to them. With their goals and capacities in mind, each student begins to prepare mentally and physically to train and orient himself for the vocation that would most satisfy his particular requirements. Underclassmen often have difficulty realizing their true desires. When freshmen are asked what they would like to be when they grow up many have absolutely no idea. While other freshmen have set very high goals for themselves, and decide to begin high school and attend one of the vocational schools. At these schools, underclassmen learn the necessary skills required for their pursued job. School Crossing Guard: This sophomore enjoys the respect she receives when helping young children cross the street. Angela Hobbs Juniors, finally able to call themselves up- perclassmen, relax and enjoy their superiority. These students begin to feel carefree, and ready to take on the world. Many times juniors choose careers where they will be able to let the world see their new found notoriety. Growing Up f 11

College Style Registration Successful Two Years in a Row egistration, college style, was once more successful, as students went through the process of signing up for classes. The students first went to the auditorium to plan their schedules and then ventured on to the student center to have their schedules approved by the counselors. Then, the race began. Students rushed to the different departments to sign up for their classes before they were full. Through all the excitement and confusion, registration at Rider went well for the students.

August Apparently Pays Off n August, while most people are lounging around the pool soaking up some of the last rays of summer, others are at school preparing for the new school year. This preparation includes everything from punting footballs to high kicks, learning new music to practicing new cheers, and, let us not forget the ever- precious air conditioning system. The Raider football team comes out two weeks before school starts to sharpen their techniques and practice their many drills. These drills, known as two-a-days, are held in the morning and again in the afternoon. The Rider Ranglers also begin practicing in August. They work on their precision timing and on their choreographed routines. The Pride of the Raiders Marching Band begins rehearsing in August to insure a terrific per- formance for the first football game. The cheerleaders prepare by practicing building pyramids and learning new cheers, They also practice twice each day. The school ad- ministration also planned ahead for the com- ing year by installing an air conditioning system. lt is obvious by the Raider's suc- cessful year that preparing for the future pays off.
