Tokay High School - Tokay Yearbook (Lodi, CA)

Dimensions add up to quality staff lt's impossible to describe what the last nine months have been like at Tokay. lt seemed as if the year just flew by. Problems change from year to year but one that seemed to stick around was missed deadlines. The only difference was that instead of just missing one or two we decided to go to the extreme and miss them all. Once everyone on staff got down to work though, their determination showed through. When times were bad and it felt like it was time to give up, staff members really pulled through, supplying the needed energy to get the job done. Early Saturday mornings brought out the true workers. ln the mists of disaster we were able to grow together and become the family we needed to make a good yearbook. Competitions came and went and we realized the pay-offs of hard work. lfWthin the boundaries of room IA-7 we learned respon- sibility, useful skills like lypesetting and writing, fun skills like photo- graphy and friendship. The most important though was self conhdence and a belief in our- selves given to us by Adviser Roger Woo. There were times when we let him down but he always hung in with us. by Sabrina M.

Because of late schedul- ing, upper classmen leave for home at 2:30 p.m. while freshmen leave at 4:30 in the evening. Year ends up in full dimensions As the year comes to an end, we look upon it as a strained yet eventful one. We have faced the threat of year round school to site changes for graduation. But the year also offered us a chance at the Victory Cup. With Tokay's population near- ing 2,900, it brought about dis- cussions between administration and the Lodi Board of Trustees on the issue of year round school. The decision to start year round school at Tolfay next fall was later tabled during the January meet- ings. Of course, Tokay administrators had other problems too. Because of the improper deportment of last year's graduating class, admini- strators believed there was a need to change the traditional Friday night ceremonies at the Grape Bowl to either a Saturday or early Friday morning ceremony. Tokay's proudest accomplish- ment though, was its chance as the Victory Cup. For Tokay's sports programs, the season 's greatest high was knowing that the Victory Cup was right outside the door. These and many more added dimensions were what made To- kay a variable collage of people and their activities. They were what formed the foundation for Tokay's community. by Melanie Mabalot
