St Teresas Academy - Avila Yearbook (Kansas City, MO)

Text from Pages 1 - 184 of the 1982 volume:

Saint Teresa Academy — Kansas City, Missouri Our Present Reflects the Past The grounds at 56th Main were bleak and windy — the lower campus was a swamp. The site did not look like a prom- ising school location, nevertheless, plans were designed for three buildings. The Music and Arts building was the first to be completed. On September 12, 1910, St. Teresa Academy opened its doors for admittance. Numerous additions were planned for the next few years. Little did they know that the campus would not be completed for seventy years. In 1942, Donnelly Hall was completed. Forty years later, in 1982, the crowning touch, the multi-purpose facility, brings the construction of St. Teresa Academy to a finish for the time being. A new building — “What’s in it for me?” We all know this question echoed through the minds of each member of the student body at one point or another this year. Selfish as the answers may sound, they varied from home games to concession stands. Those involved in sports were most excited by the idea of a “real rectangular gym without beams that practically touch the floor.” Tennis stars were delighted by the prospect of indoor tennis. Showers with running water and decent lockers would be a pleasant addition to gym classes. No longer would embarrassment arise at WPA when we would show our dates with one point of the finger the dance floor, gym, and cafeteria. If none of the aforementioned rea- sons suffice, list your own in the box below and in doing do, this yearbook will become personally yours. 1. “Let us out!” 2.

The structure of the school itself has also been changing and improving to meet the high standards of quality education at the Academy. The tradition is continued by the addition of the new building, which will be enjoyed by many generations of smiling STA’crs to come. I. Good attitude student. 2. Matthew, Mark. Luke and John. 3.

Singing in the rain.” WALKATHON On October 15,1981, the STA students and faculty sat in a candle-lit auditorium reflecting on the history and traditions of our school. This was done in honor of St. Teresa, whose feast day we were celebrating. This day was also important in another way. It was the first STA walkathon. This was or- ganized by Ms. Pat Gallagher and Sr. Barbara Vcrhcyen. The SCO sponsored the activity in which the students could do their own part in raising money for the multi-purpose facility. The faculty and students, outfitted in STA visors, t-shirts, shorts, and even STA balloons were cheered along the way by T.V. crewmen and cameras. Ninety-seven percent of the school participated in the event. Over SI 0,000 was raised for the building. The activity not only brought about financial benefits, but it also initiated great school spirit and unity. The walk started on campus and proceeded to St. Elizabeth grade school and finally wound up back at STA. The walk was followed by a volleyball match between faculty and students. All three matches showed great sportsmanship, but the faculty was victorious in the end. This is most likely due to the fact that they practiced until the wee hours of the morning every night of the prior week. At the end of the day, a balloon monogramed with the name of our alma mater could be seen ascending into the air. Its destination was unknown. As we saw that balloon climbing toward its goal, a glance could be made toward the north end of the campus where we were climbing toward our goal... The dream of generations was becoming a reality. 1. Sorry, I already have a date Saturday night. 2. Maria was born to boogie. 3. Lori studies for Anatomy. 4.

The President of St. Teresa’s SCO was Rosie Sullivan; Vice-President Janet McAuliffe; Treasurer Susan Sterner; and Secretary Ann Spachman. Throughout the year the SCO participated in and sponsored many fund-raising and volunteer activities. The SCO led the annual Spirit Month handing over the victory to the Freshmen Class. They also sponsored the Country Westcrn Mixer on September 26, 1981, as well as “adopt-a-grandparent” during the month of December. The girls at ST A took presents to nursing homes and visited with the elderly people there. Other activities included the WPA Valentine Dance, Construction Mixer, Walkathon, and the faculty student volleyball game. 1 to rrcsnman rc.eprcseniauves, ironi row 110 r: sophomore Representatives, tront row Ann Kcicnert, i ivicgan Kaync, Katie bax, r: Mary Blando, Jenny Wood.

The annual event, sponsored by the TERESIAN staff, brought to a vitalic life the Grand Ballroom of the Radisson Muehlebach Hotel in downtown Kansas City. Those who attended the happening danced to the music of FIELDS, a well-known local band. At ten o’clock, the queen and her attendants were crowned. Toyanne Buckman held the honor of being voted Teresian queen by her classmates. Beth Kempf was named the junior attendant. Kristine Zondca held that title for the sophomore class. After the crowning, everyone danced to the theme song, “Here, There, and Everywhere” by Kenny Loggins. The dance and an eventful evening ended for some at midnight, while others proceeded with their dates to after-parties and breakfasts. Whether it was the sophomore’s first Teresian or the senior’s last, the night was one of glamour and excitement. 34 Heart to Heart The traditional W.P.A. of St. Teresa’s was transformed this year into a more formal Valentine Dance. A skit, a take-off from a television series “Hart to Hart”, introduced the dance to the students. The guidelines concerning dress were more strict than last year, while the decorations were more elaborate. The theme, Heart to Heart, was reflected in these decorations. “She’s Got a Way” by Billy Joel was the theme song. Those in attendance danced to the music of the band OSSIAN. Liz Ortega and Marty Liara were crowned queen and king of the Valentine Dance. This Valentine Dance was especially note- worthy, because it is the last to be celebrated in the M A gym. 1. “Will Beth's real date please stand up? 2.

The Prom began with dinner and dancing at the Stadium Inn. The EXTREMES provided entertainment. After-Prom followed at King Louie West. 39 1 he annual Father-Daughter Dinner Dance was held on January 26. STA students and their fathers donned cowboy hats and headed for the big round-up held at the Gold Buffet. The enthusiastic crowd was delighted by the country-western music of the band, THREE’S COUNTRY. This band is composed of Mr. Thomas Effertz, Ms. D'Ann Dreiling, and Mr. Michael Pistone. All arc parents of STA students. The band was accompanied by Mr. Jerry Merker on the drums. The crowd was also dazzled by several guest soloists. Maria Dreiling, junior, played the guitar and sang. Her sister, Michelle, a freshman, also sang. Chris Effertz, junior, played the guitar and sang a song dedicated to her father. Dan Torres, a religion teacher at STA, sang and also accompanied the song on the guitar. Each received tremendous applause. A highlight ot the evening was the senior dance contest. Three finalists were chosen by the judges: Sr. Mary Ducey, Sr. Barbara Vcrheyen, and Sr. Jean Iadevito. The couples were Mary Dolan and Mr. Pat Donnelly, Jill McDonald and Mr. William McDonald, and Denise Straub and her cousin, Ernie. The couple emerging victorious was Mary Dolan and Mr. Pat Donnelly. They demonstrated the best country-western dancing, although Mary did not have her teet on the ground most of the time. The evening turned out to be a huge success enjoyed by all of those present. 1.

A father in such a position would have to stay in shape just to keep from collapsing on the dance floor at Father-Daughter Dance. That happens to be the situation this year with the Donohue sisters: Patty, Susie, Nancy and Jean. There seems to be a kind of tradition in this case. The girls’ great-grandmother, Mrs. Katherine Dierks, grandmother, Mrs. Krosie Hodes, and mother, Mrs. Mar- garet Donohue, all attended St. Teresa’s. Out of the eleven Donohue children, all eight girls are attending or have attended STA. Mary Jo graduated in ’73, Kitty in ’75, Ellen in ’77, and Peggy in ’80. Mrs. Dierks probably did not realize when she chose STA for herself that she was choosing it for many others to follow. This year St. Teresa’s Academy presented BLITHE SPIRIT, a comedy by Noel Coward. The cast began practicing soon after Christmas and a great deal of hard work was evidenced by actors, actresses, and production staff alike. Under the direction of Ms. Fitch, Speech and Drama teacher, the cast and crew provided delightful entertainment for STA audiences. 42 BLITHE SPIRIT CAST Colleen Dorrian Kelly Hogan John Cheeney Chris Doering Laura Duchardt Liz Shortino Amy McLiney PRODUCTION Cheryl Fitch Angela Comiskey Donna Snead Diana Judah Leisa Akins Angela Hoskins Kim Joyce Julie McBride Rozena Johnson Polly Donnelly Mignon Barrett Daneen Blackmon Lisa Finley Rozena Johnson Elvira Ruth Dr. Bradman Charles Mrs. Bradman Madame Arcati Edith STAFF Director Student Director Stage Manager Sets Technical Director Light Operator Sound Operator Properties Make-up Costumes 43 I GAUDEAMUS IGITUR . . . was heard ringing through the halls of STA on the night of the annual Latin Banquet. Roughly translated, this phrase means “Therefore we rejoice!” The banquet, celebrated in April, commemorated the arrival of Spring and near completion of another year of Latin class. Each Latin student arrived clad in a toga and bearing a dish. A buffet was set consisting of salad, lasagna, spaghetti, garlic bread, grapes, and various desserts. Although the Romans ate while reclining, the Latin students opted for chairs. Each Latin II, III, and IV student had a serva (slave) from the Latin I class. This serva had to serve the upperclassmen before she could serve herself. After dinner, the freshmen presented a fashion show featuring bathing Romans, a Roman housewife, gladiators, and more. A contest for the best outfit was won by Latin III students, Mary Beth Rice, Jeannie Latenser, and Allison Scholes. These were dressed as punk Romans. Pewter statuettes were given to the graduating Latin IV class by the Latin club. In turn, they presented Sister Alma with a silver vase engraved with her initials. A grape stuffing contest was the highlight of the evening for many. This was won by Jill McDonald who held over forty grapes in her mouth. This event was followed by a Latin quiz administered by Sister Alma. All four levels competed against each other in the quiz. The Latin IV students emerged victorious. This banquet was only one of the many products of the Latin club this year. The ST A Latin club is a member of the Ju- nior Classical League. A JCL convention at MU was attended by many members of the club. A Saturnalia was celebrated in December during the club time. A Latin newspaper, TUBA ROMANA, was initiated this year. The National Latin Exam was taken by most of the Latin I, II, and III students. Of the Latin III class, Aimee Alderman re- ceived a magna cum laude award. Suzy Loeffelholz and Lora Anderson received cum laude awards. Sara Goodwin was awarded a silver medal as she received the highest honor maxima cum laude for her performance on the Latin II exam. Michelle Odell, Katie Zanin, and Heidi Hood, also of the Latin II class, received cum laude awards. Lynn Brady, Robin Winston, and Jenny Curry were awarded cum laudes for the Latin I class. Congratulations to all of these and to the Lat- in club for a prosperous year. 44 Choral Groups i 46 1. Freshmen Chorus. 2. Chamber Choir at the Alameda. 3. Director Mrs. Colette Dennihan. 4.

This year the tennis team did no less than was expected of a team of our experience. There were five returning varsity players and fourteen returning players in all. The empty varsity spots were quickly filled by capable athletes. Due to a surplus of skillful players, a third team, in addition to the varsity and junior varsity teams, was initiated during the 1982 season. This team competed against third teams of other schools. This kept them in practice and prepared them to take on the legacy of a winning tennis team. The varsity tennis team emerged triumphantly from the District Tournament. First place was awarded to St. Teresa’s. Karen Curry and Ann Schleicher proceeded to the state tournament as a doubles team. St. Teresa’s did not place in state, but experience and higher hopes for next year were gained. VARSITY TEAM: Ann Schleicher, Karen Curry, Ann Goodwin, Suzy Locffelholz, Jamie Schrocr, Katie Kostoryz, and Laura Borscrinc. JUNIOR VARSITY: Jeanne Blomstcr, Maureen Aylward, Teresa Schrocr, Kelly Smith, Amy McLiney, Lauren Coleman, Barbara Sterner, and Susan Sterner. TEAM THREE: Julie Miller. Jeanne Olt, Ann Tierney, Maria Dunn, Sarah Goodwin, Chris Effcrtz, Gina Marietti. Carol Martin, Jenny Wittman, Erin Connor, and Nancy Tiojanco. VOLLEYBALL ’81 The 1981 Volleyball season for all three teams. Freshman, JV, and Varsity, was most successful not only in the amount of games skillfully won, but also in the noted improvement each team underwent as ture with returning experienced players. BASKETBALL TEAM EARNS TOURNAMENT TITLES The basketball teams coached by Sue Christenson brought the season to a close with a 6-10 varsity record and 4-6 junior varsity record. The varsity team participated in the Notre Dame de Sion tournament emerging with the second place prize. In the Sunset Hill tournament, the team received the consolation award. Districts were approached enthusiasti- cally, but the team was defeated in the first round. Nevertheless, they were supported faithfully by student cheering, es- pecially that of those loyal fans in the junior class who rarely missed a game. The teams are looking forward to home games next year which should incite more team enthusiasm, more student attendance at games, and hopefully bring about a superior season next year.

TRACK SPRINTING TO SUCCESS The track team jumped the gun this season winning an outstanding third place in the Miege Relays on April 7. STA’s wide range of talent was evident in leaps and bounds as they placed the following events: 220 sprint, 330 hurdles, 440 sprint, 440 relay, mile run, two mile run, mile relay, high jump, and shot put. In the Blue Springs Re- lays, the team took third in the two mile relay. In the same relays Jackie O’Brien won first in the mile run. A spe- cial congratulations is in order for Sherri White who set a new meet record in the 330 hurdles during the meet against Aquinas. In this meet STA came in first. Success was evident in the meet against Belton and Center. Juliana Brown placed first in the 100 yd. dash. First place in the 800 meter run was won by Karin Gardner as was third in the mile. Jackie O’Brien placed second in the 800 meter run and in the mile. Anne Fritzlen won third in the 440 dash. Diane Sullivan leapt to fourth place in the 200 meter hurdles. Jackie O’Brien and Karin Gardner both excelled at district, qualifying for sectionals. I rack I cam: Jackie O Brian, Karin Gardner. Kristine Maclean. Yolanda Smith. Sherri White, Julie Brown.

The thought of a new beginning was exciting and yet, a little frightening. The joy of new friendships will linger in my mind. The first day was mass confusion with account- abilities, modular scheduling, and exchange of nervous hellos between classmates and teachers. The insecurity was soon settled with the appreci- ated help of the older students and the excellent faculty. The spirit of STA helped welcome the new class. The fun began with the first Rockhurst mixer and the Blue-White game. Accompanied by a group of new friends, we ventured to find the well known “Rock Jocks.” The freshman initiations were not much to look forward to, so we thought. They turned out to be fun, and meeting our big sisters made us feel as if we were finally a part of the community of “Tessies.” Let us not forget the big buddies, too. After a year full of new experiences, we have fallen in love with STA. Through the losing of accountabilities and schedules. Locking oneself out of her locker, new friends, class officers, get- ting lost in the buildings, first dances. Academy Girl, and the rest of the traditions, we have be- come part of the life of STA. This year went so quickly, it will be hard imagin- ing that we will not be freshmen anymore. The friendships made among all of the girls, and even the teachers, will be with us constantly. This year of growing to know ourselves and others is a wonderful experience. Thinking of senior gradu- ation reminds us all that we will not be here long. We must take advantage of the fantastic things that go on at STA and treasure them in our memories. — Michelle Houston 61 FRESHMEN Michele Adamson Elizabeth Lisa Aguirre P. Behrens C.

Goppert family and the Goppert Foundation assured the completion of the $1.65 million capital improvement project at St. Teresa’s. Namely, the completion of the multi-purpose building was brought about by this generous gift This fact was revealed to the student body at an assembly on March 24, 1982. Tom Goppert, the grandson of C.H. Goppert, was present at this assembly representing his family. He announced to students and faculty the intentions of his grandparents. $100,000 of the donation would be a personal gift from Mr. and Mrs. Goppert and the remaining $150,000 would be donated by the Goppert Foundation over a period of three years. Officials at S.T.A. started becoming frightened as the March payment deadline for construction drew near. St with the Goppert brought donations to $1.7 million The convocation center, power plant, and offices will be in use beginning with the 1982-1983 school year. This will complete the first phase of a three part improvement plan. The other two buildings will be renovated and connecting corridors between campus buildings will be built over the next several years. Many thanks are owed to the Goppert family and Foundation along with the other benefactors. Below: Sr. Barbara Vcrhcycn and Mr. Tom Goppert of the Goppert Foundation. SOPHOMORE YEAR Sophomore Year a year of preparing preparing for the future a year of studying studying for your advancements in life a year of hardship the struggle towards your goals to better your intellectual being a year of extensive friendship finding out who your true friends are a year of tears, and disappointment but also a year of dedication to yourself.

A sophomore illegally slops to use her locker during Hidden Talent Among Tessies When sophomore Kim Shope isn’t working on her geome- try or biology, you can usually find her dancing. Since she was ten, Kim has had a special love for dance, especially ballet. Starting in Mississippi, she has studied ballet at several different schools, including the Jackson Ballet School, the Memphis Ballet School, American Dance Center, and the Kansas City Ballet School. Kim received dance scholarships to some of these schools because of her exceptional talent and also won a scholarship to the School of American Ballet in New York City for a summer of study. Besides natural talent, ballet takes much discipline, en- durance, and plain hard work. Kim spends numerous hours a week practicing and improving her technique. In addition to ballet, she attends modern dance and charac- ter classes to broaden her dancing ability. This hard work has paid off for Kim and she has been in many perfor- mances including the Nutcracker, Pas de Quatre, Tchai- kovsky Suite, and the leading role in Sleeping Beauty. When asked about her future, Kim never hesitates. Her enthusiastic answer is always the same — Professional Dance!!

Sophomores Emerge Helpful and Enthusiastic As Sophomore year comes to a close, it is difficult to recall a specific event which is outstanding above the rest. A combination of activities involving extracurricular activities, school work, and the weekends proved to produce an exciting year. The Sophomores led by their class officers exhibited their ability to learn, lead, and have fun. One of the first activities of the year involved the incoming Freshmen Class. The Sophomores had the responsibility of helping the f reshmen feel welcome and become accustomed to the new environment. Each Sophomore chose one Freshmen to be her “Little Buddy”. The “Big Buddies” were there to help the Freshmen get involved in school happenings. A “Big Buddy” and “Little Buddy” picnic was organized by the Sophomores in order that everyone might become acquainted. “Little Buddies” were kept throughout the year. Other class activities included a bake sale and a raffle to raise dollars for the Class Treasury. The prize for the raffle was a fifty dollar Plaza Gift Bond. In addition to money matters, class meetings included guest speakers on such subjects as alcoholism and rape. Sophomore year proved to be a lot harder than the past year. It was important educationally. Teachers assigned essays and research papers along with tests, final exams and the traditional homework. Sophomores excelled in sports on various varsity and junior varsity teams. The big dances of the year were Teresian, Rockhurst Homecoming, and St. Teresa’s Valentine Dance. Teresian was the most exciting of all, since this was the first dance which Sophomores could attend that was not held in a school gym. It is hard to believe that the year went by so quickly. Next year as Juniors, the class will have more responsibilities and new activities such as Prom and Ring Night. Even with these things still in the future, Sophomore year will rank highly in the memories of all.

Extra preparations such as a band and a moon walk had been made in order that this year’s picnic might top all others. But due to rain, the activities had to be moved into the M A gym. It was rather stuffy, and it took a long while before everyone could purchase a ticket and get out of the rain. Despite the weather, there were water balloon fights and frisbee games. The moon walk was also put back into operation, although the band never made its debut. Everyone present enjoyed the picnic, but all left with hopes for better weather next year.

Kilmeny Waterman Kilmany Waterman, a 15-year-old junior, is one of America's up and coming tennis stars. Last year she was ranked 29th in the nation for 14-year-old girls. She is currently ranked 4th in the 16 and under division of Missouri Valley, which includes Missou- ri, Kansas, Illinois, Nebraska, Iowa and Oklahoma. Kilmany started playing tennis when she was six years old. Her mother was a club pro, which contrib- utes to Kilmcny’s early interest in the game. Kil- meny began competing in the tournaments when she was eight. She has played on the National Circuit since she was twelve. She has played in the Interna- tional Orange Bowl in Florida, and the National Hard Courts, National Clay Courts, and the Na- tional Indoors. Kilmeny works long, hard hours on her game. Dur- ing the summer, she plays all day long, while during the school year, she plays at least two hours every night. She has a weekly session with her Australian coach, Bob Muir. Kilmeny seems to have a hard time finding people to play her. “I like to play men, because they’re good, strong, and fast. But after a while, they become intimidated by having a 15-year-old girl beat them.” Kilmeny was not allowed this year, nor will she next year, to be a member of STA’s tennis team. She transferred to STA from Barstow so she was ineligi- ble last season because of a rule stating that any high school student may not participate in sports until one year after transferring to that new school. The next season she will be ineligible again because of the rule: “a high school student cannot play high school sports until 365 days after competing in a National Tournament.” Kilmeny’s goals are looking toward turning pro. She hopes to play at Wimbledon and in the U.S. Open. “I keep playing tennis because it’s gratifying to see how much I can improve year after year. 1 .enjoy working myself harder and harder so 1 get better and better.” Maria Dreiling Maria Dreiling, junior at STA, was chosen this year to display her talents, as singer and dancer, at Worlds of Fun’s COUNTRY JUNCTION. Maria was selected as one of thirty-four performers from all across the Midwest. Maria has been singing and playing the guitar for many years. She is also active in the choruses here at STA and in a country western band called THREE’S COUNTRY. She has taken five years of extensive dance lessons in an attempt to perfect her talents and has participated in many musical productions throughout the Kansas City area. Maria will be spending nearly every hour of her summer this year performing at Worlds of Fun. We might not see her too much, but in the future ... Who knows? Maria might become a super-star of country music! I. Kaihy Worland steals a dance with Mr. Effertz. 2. Chris Effertz and Tom Denzel at Teresian. 3. Ann admires her photo- genic date. 4. What’s in the bag. Kathy? 86 With the opening of the school year 1981-1982,1 think that all of the juniors thought that we would take the school by surprise. We were upper-classmen now. Not only did we have priority over the Freshmen, but the Sophomores, loo. We had chosen our classes carefully steering away from certain teachers and right toward the ones which we believed that we could manipulate. Knowing that we would receive our class rings and attend prom convinced us even more of our newly earned, but well deserved position of superiority. Then came the ego crash followed by pure depression. To say the least, that pompous attitude did not remain with us any longer then a killer would at the scene of the crime. The Algebra II book seemed to be written in hieroglyphics. Its theorems were extremely similar to those league long ones seen written on the blackboards of mad scientists. In chemistry that mystical design referred to as the periodic table had to be memorized. Sr. Harriet even expected us to determine some unknown solution which was handed to us. One couldn’t even cheat because each of us was given something different. After Humanities, the Hapsburgs, Bourbons, Romanovs, etc. will be ingrained in my memory forever. I was filled with pity for those who took British Novel. I think they read more books than the government has agencies. At this time, Mrs. Clark had the gall to begin informing us as to when our ACT's and SAT’s were to be taken. “I take enough tests during the week. Do you mean I have to take them on the week- end, too? Despite all of this I think a great number ot us held true to the saying “the harder you study, the harder you party. There were always dances and parties to attend. Weekdays were spent in pursuit of grades while weekends were spent in pursuit of guys. Good friends became even closer, while acquaintances became friends. Junior year certainly was an experience. I wouldn’t want to do it again, but 1 wouldn’t trade it for the world.

But who can describe the stereotype high school girl lunch? Even if one were able to do so I don’t think that St. Teresa’s lunches would fit into the norm. How do six chocolate gem donuts, a pack of cheetos, and a chocolate milk grab you? If you go to STA, 1 bet that sounds like lunch. Some may believe that the reason for the mass consumption of junk food is the lack of boys. If there were guys, then we would be embarrassed to eat so generously. Others contribute the problem to the fact that we have thirty-six minutes for lunch. You can eat a lot of gems in thirty-six minutes! Still other students blame it on the machines, not that they give food away but that there is a great lack of variety of items. Of course there is the machine with soups, chili, and spaghetti. But is there a student here who was not informed when last semester worms were found in a can of spaghetti? Since then, people have seemed to shy away from that particular machine. Then, of course, there is the pizza and hamburger machine. Even though Richard Simmons doesn’t encourage these, they are not extremely unhealthy. A few people who have a slight concern for their eating habits may purchase these. But, needless to say, they don’t fill the stomach of somebody who has been awake since seven o’clock. Therefore, students resort to the other machines. Cinnamon rolls warmed in the microwave are a favorite. Cheetos, Doritos, potato chips, and peanut butter bars fall from the machine racks like flies. Odd arrangements of these items are concocted and consumed daily. More often than not, after students have polished off the lunch that mom packed, they ramble or should I say wobble up to the machines. There isn’t much left by that time, but nearly every Tessie has an insatiable appetite which is rarely particular when it comes to junk food. Finally, either when the lunch mods are over or the student is full, usually the former, the students gather their books and leave the cafeteria. It is difficult to admit, but often girls are seen stopping by the machines one more time and put- ting corn nuts in their purses. These they intend to munch on inconspicuously during class. (Although anyone successfully eating corn nuts inconspicuously, remains to be seen.) The crunch that the consumption of those roasted kernals lets forth is thunderous! Surprisingly enough, all Tessies are not obese. But if the STA students continue practicing these eating habits which they acquire at the Academy after they have left their Alma Mater, the food supply for the remaining world would be halved! What can be done about this most dreadful syndrome? There are a few solutions. First and foremost, eating habits can be changed. But this is not easy or enjoyable. Therefore, I propose that healthier food be placed in the machines. This then would leave students no other alternative except to eat this “foreign” material often referred to as health food. — Suzy Locffelholz Gluttony You wake up to donuts on the breakfast table Then you eat the whole box until moving? you’re not able You chase the ice-cream truck down Main Street It stops at a red light, you rob the back seat Ten ice-cream bars, five red and blue rockets Then off to the candy store to stuff all your pockets Later at supper when sister isn't looking You shyly reach over to sneak her rice pudding You eat like a pig, the boys aren’t pleased Your bulging thighs appear like cottage-cheese So hop on a scale and swear to a diet Gluttony makes for thieves — Oh, and if you need food, buy it. — Anne Ammatelli firs 95 ACADEMY GIRL 1982 Barbie Rogge is the 34th Academy girl at St. Teresa’s. She represents the class of 1982. Barbie has received one of the highest honors given at S.T.A. She has demonstrated the outstanding qualities for which the award stands. She has been involved in the American Red Cross throughout high school and has been a member of the youth advisory council for four years, serving last year as vice-president. Barbie has also been a delegate to a Senior High Leadership Camp for three years and plans to staff both the Junior and Senior High Leadership Camps this year. She has also worked at many first aid stations and is on the Red Cross Clown Corps. She has helped start a Red Cross Club here at S.T.A. of which she is president. She has taken an active role in putting on the Search retreats for others by giving talks and sharing her exper- iences with the participants. She has also shared her singing talent as a member of the choruses since sophomore year. Barbie is a member of the Medaille group, and she is a reporter and cartoonist on the Dart staff. She ran track her freshman year and played soccer her sophomore and junior years. Barbie attended the UMKC Saturday Seminars last year and has also been in three Rockhurst plays, “LiP Abner , “Rebel With- out A Cause”, and had the lead role in “Good News”. Besides all these extracurricular activities. Barbie has maintained an excellent academic record by receiving first honors each year. When she was asked how she felt when she won, Barbie replied, “I was astonished!” Barbie Rogge is this year’s Academy Girl ... and she is truly astonishing. STA Students Receive National Merit Scholarships Yearly, the National Merit Scholarship Corporation releases the names of over 15,000 semifinalists in the competition for 5000 merit scholarships. This choosing is based upon test performance on the standardized PSAT NMSQT test which is taken in the fall of junior year. Additional requirements must then be met in order to become a finalist. One of these is an essay which must be written by the scmifinalist. This essay must de- scribe their high academic standards along with extracurricular accomplishments. This year. Saint Teresa s is proud to have three finalists in the senior class. These are Anita Davclos, Diane Kelly, and Diane Sullivan. They will receive scholarships to various colleges due to their standing in the National Merit testing. Valedictorian Valedictorian is the highest academic honor that STA awards. The honor for the 1981-82 school year was presented to senior, Susan Keitges, at an all-school assembly. Susan maintained a number one class rank- ing over a cummulative seven semesters. Not only did Susan gain an outstanding scholastic achievement, but she has also displayed leadership and athletic abilities as well. Susan was the president of the French Club, a member of Chamber Choir, and has been involved in the Student Council Organization. Susan teaches gymnastics to children at Loretto High School and has gone to state competition for her athletic ability. Next year Susan plans to attend Georgetown Univer- sity, where she has been accepted and wants to go into medicine. Salutatorian Cheers filled the auditorium as Patty Culver was announced salutatorian. Patty anxiously accepted her medal and the title. The Salutatorian is the student ranking second in her class at the conclusion of a seven semester time span. Throughout her four years at STA, Patty has not only demonstrated outstanding academic abilities, but leadership and athletic abilities as well. During her junior year, Patty was elected president of her class and senior year was elected vice-president. She has been a member of the Latin club every year, and also participated in the career club. Her athletic abilities were proven as she played basketball during her freshman year. She was a member of the volleyball team her freshman, sophomore, and junior years. Along with her numerous involvements, Patty has been in several other extracurricular programs. Patty recently received the Alumni Special Scholarship for Rolla, where she plans to attend college and major in ceramic or chemical engineering. 97 98 These Are The Best Of Times . . .

Few remained totally unchanged at the end of the two weeks. Our own capabilities in handling some of the situations were doubted by some. Nevertheless, all gave a little of ourselves to help others in some way. We had all heard many times over how proud the administration and school were of us for choosing to participate in Senior Christian Service Projects instead of taking the traditional senior ski trip. We all wondered if anyone had figured out that one of the primary factors in our decision was the fact that we would have two weeks off school instead of one. The projects were begun by many with a selfish attitude. This year’s senior class had been granted an opportunity no other class has had. We were given two weeks out of the school year to contribute some time to helping others in our own Kansas City community. It was also a chance to catch a brief glimpse of the real world. Perhaps the most important thing that resulted from the projects was that we learned that the two weeks was so much more than just not having classes. It was a time of concentrated effort donated to someone who was less fortunate than ourselves. We saw that we could make a significant contribution to society, and at the same time we realized that so little from us meant so much to those with whom we worked. For the brief period of two weeks, we helped ourselves by helping others. We had our own responsibilities and tasks. We had the opportunity to work with some outstanding people with whom we most likely would have never come into contact. Numerous intangible rewards were gained from our experiences. Each person had an experience unique unto herself. Each agency and each girl’s contributions were different. The agencies varied from hospitals to nursing homes to schools for the mentally and or physically handicapped to practical- ly any facet of society where service volunteers were needed. The work projects varied accordingly. Some girls developed a patience by continously working with someone. Some saw in themselves a skill in working with people which they will develop into a career. New friendships were made by all. Some drew from themselves a sensitivity and a sense of responsibility they weren’t aware they possessed. Some saw that those who are often considered “less fortunate” are those with the strongest character of spirit. We had given part of ourselves to the community in the Christian aspect of service of the school. We had taken up a Small portion of the workload for the agencies. We had been two-week visitors or playmates for the people we spent time with. We did put something into it — no matter how much or how little — and it was something from within us. What had started as a concept from selfish attitudes had changed to an intangible gain we never expected. We were very lucky to have been granted this opportunity, and appreciate all the time and effort that went into making it a success. We are truly the ones that reaped the rewards.

Held annually, the Miss TEEN competition honors high school girls in the areas of academics, volunteer services, talents, poise and personality. The pageant was held April 9, 10, and 11 in St. Louis at Stouffers Riverfront Inn. Kelly and Susan had been chosen out of 600 girls who had applied to be in the contest; they actually competed against 120 girls in the state competition. After being interviewed by six judges, each contestant performed an individual talent. Both Susan and Kelly sang. Many other social activities filled the days. Both girls deserve recognition, and special congratulations go to Susan Miller for being named runner-up in the pageant. -aA Compliments of Southside Plumbing Inc.
