Nineteen hundred and eighty-seven TIME TO REMEMBER In spite of a local and statewide economic crisis, many factors con- tributed to. making, the l986-8 7 school year The Best of Times at SHS. Many firsts played a vital role in making this a good year. Some of these changes were in the physical structure. An obvious transforma- tion was the freshly painted Chief- tain, not army, green lockers. For the first time ever, we began the year with air conditioning. This did at affect the school board's deci- ion to relax the dress code, and students responded by .lams in the winter months. asked about what motivated to dress in such a way, James said, l just did it for the fun of it.

Finally, SHS saw two new faces in the faculty ranks. Mr. Clinton came to Seminole from Coalgate to lead the band. Ms. Roether, our new art instructor, returned to Seminole after being away .three years. She said, lt was nice to come back to a place where the community and faculty support my art program. We're glad they joined our family and hope they're around for many years to come.
