15: i W 117' :Z 1 Seneca Valley is a varitable melting pot of teenagers. Youths from different backgrounds, and even different coun- trys, come to school sporting outfits that show eaches individ- ual style. One of these variations is the country style. People wearing soft, comfortable jeans, flannel shirts and casual T-shirts. Groups such as Alabama, Hank Williams, lr., and Statler Bros., can be heard in common conversation among the country teens and their friends. Next are the new wavers. The new wavers and punks have often been confused, but they are very different. New wave teens wear bright electric colors and sports tails hanging form their heads. popular bands among new wavers are Frankie goes to Hollywood, Tears for Fears, Cyndi Lauper, etc. The punks in Seneca are few but closely knit. Punks wear Black and grey. Costume jewelery can be seen on punk girls arms. Spiked and colored hair is a trademark among punks also. Groups heard of in punk circles are Iron Cross, Violent Femmes, Exploited, anm a new up and coming band called Phlegm. 1. Shanti Parikh and Courtney Billups show their Class of '86 smiles 2.

juniors ,.,.A Someone famous once wrote that your youth was supposed to be the best time of your life. I think that our class of 86 has got the right idea. Many juniors are making their high school days the best time of their life by getting into some of the var- ious activities or groups here at Seneca Valley and outside of school. Many Juniors have a good time by joining a sports team or cheerleading while even more just like the excite- ment while watching those teams play. Those juniors that are not athletically inclined still find that Seneca Valley is an ex- citing place to be and that there is more to Seneca than sports. They join groups like the news- paper staff or one of the foreign language clubs. Outside of school we juniors spend a lot of our time at parties where we have good, clean fun. Since music is a major interest of many students here at Seneca, we also enjoy going to concerts like Bruce Springsteen Prince, or U2. Whatever they do for a good time the juniors are mak- ing their stay at Seneca Valley one of the best times of their e. As we all know, as juniors, our social life revolves around Seneca Valley and its halls. For many, coming to school is not a task but more like a time to see place to have a little fun. But for others, Seneca Valley is just an- other school. With more has- sles, and more work. As always the good out does the bad and we all know that Seneca is Pride of the Valley.

ITTOFGS ,v Sopho The First Year Of School As A Sophomore On Sept. 4, 1984 many sopho- mores picked up their new note- books and sharpened pencils ready to go and start their first day in a new high school. After a deep breath fand of course at least an hour of' primpingl they are ready to enter the huge high school. What a change Seneca Valley would be for them. With a de- tailed map in one hand and a wor- ried look on their faces they patrol the school and all of their classes. The sophomores soon got their act together as shown during spirit week . Many sophomores had fun decorating the sopho- more hall and float. During spirit week the class of 87 cheered along with the rest of the eagle crowd at the homecoming pep rally. They also held up their school spirit by dressing up for each theme day. To finish up spirit week, the sophomores had fun riding in their decorated float at the football game. Many sopho- mores commented that if every- body had not worked together, our spirit week would not have been a success.
