The Junior Class of 1984 turned the final day of school for the seniors into a grand finale. When students arrived at school Friday morning, they found that the entire courtyard was covered with white toilet paper. Thanks to the Class of ’84, it looked like snow in the spring. The ‘‘paper caper” was Called a “going-away” present for the sen- iors. When Friday ended, the seniors were re- leased a week earlier than the underclassmen. Most seniors left very excited, but some left feel- ing they would miss ‘good old SHS.” The next time the seniors were together again was at the first marching practice. It has been a tradition that the Millers put much pride into their graduation ceremony; Principal Bill O’Neal said, “It has to be perfect.” After practice a sen- ior luncheon was served by the school cooks. They put a lot of extra effort into the luncheon and the seniors were very grateful. Next on the agenda was the senior breakfast. Parents were invited with their seniors for a big Elks’ Lodge breakfast, awards presentation, and slide show. Later in the afternoon the seniors were back at Miller Pavilion practicing once again. Then that evening graduates and parents attended Baccalaureate. The Baccalaureate ad- dress was given by senior Robert Conrad’s father, Pastor Gerald Conrad, whose remarks encour- aged many graduates to reflect. Now comes the realization, the ending of a long chapter, and the beginning of another large, and wondrous chapter in the 1983 graduates’ lives.
