I Class of ' 86 how your spirit 1 . During his ceramics class, John Kendall works on his own clay creation. Kendall was on the RHS Varsity Soccer team. I regret not being as in- volved in RHS activities as I could have been. I keep tell- ing myself next year I ' ll make time, said Yvonne Durham, voicing the opin- ion shared by many other RHS students. Being involved in school activities was an important part of a student ' s daily life. Whether the club was the Associated Student Body, or Future Farmers of America, students experienced the feeling of belonging. I love being involved with my school because it gives me the feeling that I ' m helping RHS, stated Laura Boucher. Although these clubs ob- viously had their advan- tages, perhaps one disavan- tage was the sacrifice of var- ious lunch periods, and after some school time that stu- dents normally spent relax- ing. Some students felt club activities weren ' t important enough to give up their re- laxation time. e 2. Delia Enriquez listens to her government teacher. She was also an advanced drawing student.

v $ As seniors lined up anxiously awaiting to order their caps, gowns, and announce- ments for graduation in June, they began to contemplate the final day . . . the day they would be free . . . the day of high school graduation. When I saw the tas- sels, I got excited thinking about gradu- ation. I felt like an official senior and I could almost taste the freedom, stated Laura Boucher. Although it was exciting to imagine the freedom they would soon have, many sen- iors felt very apprehensive and jittery. Leaving their friends that they acguired over the past twelve years and entering a real world, one full of responsibilities and opportunities was for some, a difficult tran- sition. I am really nervous. Once you look at all the caps and gowns for graduation, you begin to feel the anticipation of gradu- ation. I ' m kind of shaky about the whole thing. Once graduation is over hopefully the things I want to happen will fall into place, stated Sherri Pendleton. Others felt they had no need to worry about graduation or the future until the very last minute in June. I won ' t start wor- rying until June, then I ' ll get really ner- vous. I want to enjoy my senior year with- out too many worries, exclaimed Danny Fierro. As the thought entered their minds they knew the day of graduation was frightfully near, maybe nearer than they really want- ed. Some were unprepared for the future, and undecided about what they wanted to do after high school. I almost felt like cry- ing because I realized the end was near. I don ' t know if I ' m ready to go out on my own, explained Kim Richmond. Some didn ' t have the funds, or the courage to go through with what they had dreams of do- ing. While some were anticipating the excit- ing vacations they would take after gradu- ation, others were intimidated by the fear of making it in our world. I was thinking to myself, I hope it isn ' t a waste of money, know it won ' t be because it ' s a once in a lifetime thing. I can ' t wait. I ' m ready, stat- ed Darren Proulx. Still, others were sure of their future plans. The senior class felt they had the power to attain their goals, and to be suc- cessful in life. e 1 .
