With this new status also came many other priviledges. Seniors were now able to pick on anyone they wanted. They were looked up to as the leading class. There were also the traditional privileges such as graduation practices that got seniors out of school. Senior cut day and senior portraits were among the other traditional requirements of seniordom.. The Class of '88 also had to deal with the red tape involved in graduating. There were the applications to fill out, and forms for diplomas. All in all though, the senior year for the Class of i988 proved to be a fruitful year with many happy memories. vs: it 'V W A.

Colleges began to look at grades, so juniors had to cut back on fun and keep on the homework. Juniors faced a year of new traditions as the Junior Senior prom was split, and called the Junior prom. But, juniors walked around with their head in the clouds knowing that in less than one year, they would be in charge of the bullying of freshmen and the ruling of the school. Senioritis was something they looked forward to, along with graduation. Horses, pigs, sheep, and goats were all seen at the Future Farmer of America's lFFAj petting zoo. The members charged S2 to allow students to walk around and see the baby animals roaming around in their barriers. A few people were allowed to ride the horse. But high school students weren't the only one's seen in the zoo, elementary kids were there also.

They had the dances and rallies and various fundraisers to attend now that they were accepted also as a true part of the school and spent much of their time blending in. For many sophomores this was the year to start participating in school activities and planning for the future. Overall, sophomore year proved to be one of preparation and fun. New beginnings Fresh man Ifresh' manj n. l. a beginner 2. first year student in high school or college Finally feeling like teenagers, freshmen welcomed, with open arms, high school. Little did they realize that the upperclassmen wouldn't welcome freshmen with the same open arms. But, as the year went on, people left the underclassmen alone, and the freshmen learned the highlights Tokay could offer. Clubs and sports gave them a wide variety of after school activities. The hard process of high school began and the underclassmen started the long climbing process. Although freshmen had to face a long day starting from 9:30 a.m. and ending at 4:30 p.m., they made it through and moved up the ladder a step higher. Allin all, freshmen felt proud of finally making it to high school, and involved themselves as much as possible. How do you avoid doing homework? 1. Sleep 2. Watch television 3. Leave it in locker 4.
