As the last senior, Dana Bingman, crosses the stage, everyone seems glad to be “fin- ished.'' “The Past Holds Our Memories, the Future Our Dreams’’ On Sunday, May 25, 1980, the combined baccalaureate and com- mencement exercises were held in the high school gymnasium. The senior class was dressed in the traditional red caps and gowns. The invocation and baccalaureate addresses were given by Reverend Phil- lip Malone of Thornville and Hopewell United Methodist Churches. Valedictorian Carol Louise Sterner and Salutatorian Lisa Gail McGlone gave speeches concerning the school and their class. The senior class song Lean on the Wind” was sung by seniors under the direc- tion of Mrs. Eloise Mechling. After the presentation of the Valedicto- rian and Salutatorian awards by Superintendent Bert Severance, the Alma Mater was sung by all seniors. As Mr. Richard Fisher presented the 1980 senior class, Charles Boring and Thomas Hill presented dip- lomas.
