Below left: l FEEL MORE INDEPENDENT BECAUSE I SKATEBOARD. NOT MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE INTO THIS SPORT, remarks Keith Platt, an avid skaleboarder often seen behind Sprayberry jumping home-built ramps and practicing difficult stunts. When not spending up to three hours a day skateboarding in his neighborhood, Keith often heads down to the skateboard parks In South Atlanta where he admires all the really good professional guys . They give me something to reach for, says Keith, who hopes to someday to build a concrete bowl in his back yard just like the ones in the parks. Below middle: THE MORE I DANCE, THE MORE I SEE WHAT I HAVE TO ACCOMPLISHQ' states this devoted and awarded dancer of tapp, jazz, and ballet. Gwyn Morgan has been into dance for more than a decade now, ever since she was three, and has been appropriately rewarded for all the time she put in. Gwyn has won four Regency Dance Titles, a 4-H State Contest, a Kiwanis Capers contest, and most recently she achieved the alternate position in dance for the Governor's Honors Program. She says ballet is fairly different compared to other activities and it is a lot of hard work. Stressing this fact she replies, '-if my Q' .NA heart wasn't into it. I wouIdn't devote so much of my time to dancing. Below right: EVEN THOUGH l'M ACTIVE IN OTHER THINGS, SINGING IS MOST IMPORTANT TO ME, remarks Bess Fenley, who spends about an hour and a half a day learning and practicing ways to better her talent. Besides taking chorus lessons here at Sprayberry, Bess trudges over to Kennesaw Junior College once every week to take lessons from Dr. Wayne Gibson, her teacher who also serves as a sort of influence to Bess, being her idol. All of her time and practice has paid off, as she won first place in the South Eastern Champions Competition, second in the National Association of Teachers of Singing competition, second in the GMTA competition, and varied scholarships from several colleges. Bess sings classical music in five different languages and says she enjoys it. She concludes, My singing will help with my college tuition because of the scholarships and it also makes my Mom happy. Bottom left: I COMPETE IN SPELLING MOSTLY FOR MY TEACHERS. I HOPE MY ABILITY TO SPELL WELL IS A REFLECTION OF THEM, states the second best speller in the state of Georgia, Lyta Shadburn. Lyta has been competing in spelling bees since eighth grade when she won the school spelling bee at J.J. Daniell Middle School, and ever since then she has been racking up titles and awards from every competition she has been to. Last year Lyta placed third in state and confides that her ability mostly comes from reading and learning vocabulary. 4,-,x r 36 in us' D.

Mardette Coleman, and Sandy Case. Lyta Says 'haf competing in spelling bees has helped her memory of how words are spelled and has also helped her in writing compositions: she really does not need to constantly turn pages of a dictionary. Lyt PI'0udIy states that she is glad to have suc academic ability and feels it will reward her aft graduation while studying in college. Bottom right: BEING AN EAGLE SCOUT HELPS ME IN HAVING SELF-CONFIDENCE AND PRIDE IN MYSELF, replies Junior Jeff Moore, who has achieved the highest possible rank in scouting after six long years of skillful, tedious work. Jeff, like other fellow scouts, got started through his own personal ambition in wanting to become an Eagle Scout: they all put in long busy hours on projects and services needed to achieve this honored position. Brad Henson is another one of many Sprayberry boys who has earned the title Eagle Scout. Sitting with Jeff Moore, he attends their weekly scout meetings. Earning the title of Eagle Scout not only has brought both boys the recognition they deserve, but it will help them tremendously in the future when applying to colleges and seeking jobs, because most people realize and respect the self-discipline and determin- ation it takes to achieve a high goal such as becoming an Eagle Scout.
