From Shakespeare to Politics After four inactive years, the Model U.N. club, sponsored by Mrs. Bobbie Sue Henry, was successfully revived and the program achieved one of its most productive years. Representing a country of the world, each student had to debate an issue, following the point of view of the country they chose. The student par- ticipants acquired much skill in writing resolutions. The club also sponsored a Model U.N. session at Rockbridge High School which was attended by other schools. While Model U.N. students debated, the RHS Drama Club, spon- sored by Mrs. Diller, practiced stagecraft somewhere between Shakespeare and Moliere. The talented students accomplished their best performance when they staged ““Mugsey’s Merry Christmas.”’ In May, Pep Band — Front Row — Cindy Smedley, Missy Hartless, Karen Dedrick, Melanie Mc- Cabe. Second Row — Blake Ogle, Holly McBride, Amy Shumate. Third Row — Mike Thornton, John Hostetter, sponsor Audrey Johnston. 58 Clubs several members of the club modeled clothes from various periods of American history during the intermis- sion ofthe FHA fashion show. Two other clubs fostered interest in another fine art, music. The Pep Band, sponsored by Mrs. Johnston, performed at football and basketball games throughout the year. Their musical support at the Homecoming football game was a source of en- couragement for the players. Choral music was also evident at RHS in the form of the Melodics, spon- sored by Mrs. Jane Merrill. The Melodics helped the cheerleaders per- form ‘“‘The Star-Spangled Banner”’ at each of the home basketball games. During the Drama Club’s presentation of ‘“‘Mugsey’s Merry Christmas,” the Melodics sang carols. - Dennis May, Eric Clark, and Andrew® Johnson, representing Japan at the Model U.N. | Security Council, always have their words to say.

Contrary to the myth that a student’s life should be based on academics only, many other activities at Rockbridge High School helped to enrich and educate students in ways that academics did not. Field trips, sports, club activities, and pep rallies were important aspects of stu- dent life at Rockbridge High School. Pro- viding a much-needed release from academic pressure, these activities challenged students to excel. While some students attended club meetings in the morning before the school day began, others rushed out of class at the 2:58 bell to attend sports practice or to travel to an after-school job. These ac- tivities helped students develop a sense of MAKING BELIEVE STUDENT LIFE responsibility and leadership. Dances and sports events, whether on weekends or during the week, gave students the chance to develop socially. Fans at athletic competition, as they cheered their team to victory, gained a sense of pride and learned to express themselves in a positive way. Sockhops and holiday dances allowed students to interact together in a more relaxed atmosphere. : Through engaging in these various ac- tivities, students learned lessons that would be essential to their individual growth and development. Thus, the interaction stimulated the students into ‘“‘Making Believe’’ in themselves and their surroundings. 60 Student Life Divider Taking a break for refreshment, these students enjoy the Homecoming’ Dance.
