PROM IN GYM HAS STYLE The 1989 Junior-Senior Prom was definitely a beau¬ tiful one. The Junior’s put all their ideas together and de¬ cided to have the Prom in the Gymnasium. Working hard all week and early Sat¬ urday morning they finished the decorating and turned the gym into a Chinese pal¬ ace. The theme this year was an Oriental setting with Red, Gold, and Black for the col¬ ors. As students filled the gym with joy they went to their table and grabbed their dates to dance the night away. The highlight of the evening was when Brian Sharp was announced King and Carrie Cunningham was crowned Queen. While they danced the D.J. played the prom song which was “In the Air Tonight, by Phil Col¬ lins.” The evening came to an end, everyone said their good byes, and met up again at the After Prom All Night Party. This was a new idea by the parents and teachers. Having this party at the YMCA in Waynesboro was a terrific idea. Students went swimming, played basket¬ ball, watched movies, played Casino games, and ate as much food and drinks as they wanted. Starting at 8:00 p.m. on Saturday night and ending at 6:00 a.m. Sunday morning was definitely a memorable Prom weekend. While dirty dancing, Lee Tutwiler whispers sweet nothing in Shannon Biser’s ear. Holding each other tight¬ ly, Michelle and Bruce Mays dance their last prom dance. 24

REMEMBER OUR FREEDOM Speaking at graduation, former SDHS principal John Avoli chose to talk to the Class of ’89 about China. During his speech Mr. Avoli brought out the fact that only in America can we enjoy our freedom. He re¬ minded the graduates not to take that free¬ dom for granted and to be thankful for that freedom. Salutatorian, Susan Calder, wel¬ comed the class by saying that the memories we hold at SDHS are unique to each one of us. Co-valedictorian, Stephanie Hudson re¬ lated to the problems of the Chinese students and reminded us that our generation will be faced with new problems and challenges. Stressing that what each individual makes out of their own life is entirely up to them, Lynn Hering co-valedictorian stated that our options are limitless. At the end of the ceremony, the adminis¬ tration presented three special awards: the Nick Wilk Award presented to Jolie Eves, the Faculty Scholarship awarded to Lynn Hering, and the School Service Award given to Daphne Almarode. BY: DAPHNE ALMARODE Graduating seniors sit and listen closely as Mr. John Avoli addresses the class on our freedoms in America.
