Leaders.- In Action Although being a leader involved hon- ors and priviledges. don't understimate the position. Along with the prestige came a great deal of pressure and responsibility. For example, the officers of service clubs such as J R.A.'s, Interact, and Kcywannctcs organized a different project each month to serve the school and com- munity, in addition to planning fund rais- ing activities. Honor Society also served the school and community while raising funds; like the carnation sale at Valentines each year. School dances. Homecoming, Howdy. Christmas, and Spring, were just one of the many responsibilities of the student council. Band and Brig field officers car- ried the burden of not only leading the groups on and off the field, but of main- taining order among them and solving the various problems that occurred continu- ously. Meanwhile the other officers tended to planning activities such as the Brig Ball and the Band Banquet. Leaders of ROTC and FFA also (ended the necessary sup- port and guidance to their organizations. To be a successful leader required orga- nization and dedication, along with the de- sire and ability to cooperate and work well with others. Each of these people repre- sented the high standards and ideas of not only their respective organization, but of the school and community as well.

After years of feeling inferior, the time finally arrived for the class of ’84 to run the school. Yet, they were also suddenly faced with the responsibility of acting as the leaders of R.E.L. As officers of various groups, they gave the hard work, determination, and dedica- tion that was essential to success. In addi- tion. the seniors schedules were compiled of taking senior pictures, ordering caps, gowns, and invitations, working at the fish fry. planning impatiently for the prom, and eventually, participating together for the last time as a class at graduation. Yet. as the seniors remembered their fondest memories of high school, they also realized that there was so much more awaiting them in their future college and career.
