JUNIOR YEAR: 1983-1984 The Class of ’85 had finally advanced to the ranks of upperclassmen! It was unbe- lievably evident in many ways — some were driving or soon would get licenses, and PSAT’s were on the way. College talk was going on we were growing up. Now we could talk, act, associate and even feel like the big guys, and we did it up in very big ways! The first big event was the PSAT test. (Where did those foreign words come from???). We were warned of its difficulty but lets not get ridiculous! After receiving our scores most of us opted to take a spe- cial SAT preparation course to strengthen our skill in verbal and math abilities. (I can’t wait for the SAT’s) Quickly Spirit Week activities arrived. This year we were out for blood — namely Sophomore blood! We were determined to not let those little underclassmen defeat us. It was a race through and through as our disguises as accident victims and athletes went over well. The judges decided that we had the most spirit, but, the silly-silly- sophomores came from behind to win the games. Our defeat became even more painful when it was announced that we lost by a paltry five points! The holidays came and went quickly and work began to pile up. The mid-year blues caught up with us. Some took up winter sports such as sledding and iceskating to alleviate the boredom. Others just prayed A-8 for spring. Soon enough the snow melted and spring fever was in the air. Outdoor sports began to practice and athletes could be seen wearing premature shorts in order to get tan for — yes — our Junior Prom. May 11, 1984 — the date seemed so far away, but quickly it came and everyone was pre- pared. The guys looked great in their rented tuxes as we all arrived at the King Phillip Dining Hall in Wrentham. The night air made us feel romantic — well almost all of us (some of us were just plain irritable). We danced to the music of the Entertainer as Chris Candeias was nominated Queen of the Prom. The great success of our prom was yet another illustration of our great ability to cooperate as a class. Exam time came quickly. We scrambled to find information given to us first quarter and complained about the new rule mak- ing us stay in school for full days during exams. The heat was again upon us, sig- nifying the coming of summer and causing new problems. The administration now re- fused to let us wear anything revealing skin above the knee. This brought our various methods of protest, ranging from petitions to hoards of boys wearing miniskirts. The administration reconsidered, however, and we were allowed to wear shorts, pro- viding they were “acceptable.”
