SENIORS HAVE AN EVENT-FILLED YEAR The Senior Class of 1983 started their last year in high school as a busy one. They elected as their officers Kathy Lessmann, President; Tina Foote. Vice President; Sharon Pullen, Secretary; and Lorie White, Treasurer. Foreign exchange students weren't hard to find this year. The class enjoyed the presence and experience of having three exchanges. Maria Carlquist came from Sweden, Heike Gresens from Germany and Andrea Sichero from Brazil. During Homecoming, Butch Neal and Michele Caputo were chosen King and Queen by the school. The class finally received a first place rating on their Homecoming float; a goal that took them only six years. On May 12, the seniors traveled to Cedar Park in Union City for their annual skip day. While there, the class ate a lot of food and laid in the sun. They came back a little tired, but happy that they got a free day away from school. Senior Exit Day was held on May 19. The Honor Students read wills, gave the class prophesy and presented the mock election winners with gag prizes. The next day was to be their last as high school students. King's Island was the destination in which the Senior Class was headed as they boarded a Greyhound bus at 4:00 AM on May 31. This was to be the last time the class was to be together as a whole — except, that is, for graduation and they had the time of their lives! SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS AND ADVISOR: Kathy Lessmann.

ONE GOAL MET . . . ANOTHER AHEAD! GRADUATION On May 29, the Tekonsha High School Seniors marched anxiously down the gymnasium aisle. They chose as their colors navy blue and light blue. The class song was Through the Years by Kenny Rogers. The invocation was given by Lorie White who was followed by Kathy Lessmann welcoming parents, friends and underclassmen. Kathy also gave the Salutatorian's speech. Everyone then heard from the Tekonsha High School Band playing Classics, Classics, Classics! From there, Loren Phillips took over the ceremony by giving the class motto and speech; The great thing in this world is not where you stand, as in what direction you are moving by Oliver Wendell Holmes. Sharon Pullen and Tina Foote reflected on the past thirteen years of their lives. The band once again played. The number was Africa. DeAnn Johnson gave the Valedictorian's speech followed by Dr. Serra recognizing and presenting awards. Lillian I.aFond then recognized the class advisor, Mrs. Rinette Tyckoski, who will be missed. Superintendent, Mr. Roger Carlson, then presented the class for graduation to School Board President Mr. Edwin Shumway who then handed out the diplomas. Brian Beam then gave the benediction and the recessional followed. (Above) Todd Brown receives his diploma. (Above) The excited graduates congratulate each other on their accomplishments.
