VIT High School - Vitorian Yearbook (Table Grove, IL)

Text from Pages 1 - 112 of the 1986 volume:

Presenting the 1986 annual “Off the Wall” — a yearbook created by the '85-86 annual staff with the leadership of Karen Palmer, Teresa Sorrells, and Lori Bent. Our “unique” title was first initiated as we returned to school in August of '85 and were greeted with freshly painted classrooms and hallways. Other new splashes” we encountered were a new administration, new faculty members, and a once-again found school spirit, which was greatly welcomed by all. These factors plus many others have contributed to the contents of this annual. We hope that you enjoy this yearbook as much as we've enjoyed creating and assembling the memories bound in our version of “Off the Wall.” By Michelle Fawcett CONTENTS seniors 3-28 hall snaps l°i news 30-31 school life 33 underclassmen 31-3 staff classes H 1-50 dances 52 57 clubs 5 -ioS sports b 8 jr.high 83-87 elementary 8VI5 ads 7-104-i As we compare our baby pictures to our senior photographs, we realize how much we’ve changed and all that we've been through, and we wonder what is in store for us in the next 18 years. We look at our future with both skepticism and aspiration. Certainly the class of '86 will be remembered. Never has the senior class of 1986 been better described as when they were referred to as being “a class act. Connie studying hard before school. John S. imitating Mr Begley as he guards the hallway. John L. loafing at noon hour. Lori and Robin making plans for the big week-end. In Home Ec.. Amy works hard! Jacki at B.B. practice, Where am I? As we, the seniors of 1986, look back upon the past years at VIT we can recall many memories, both good and bad. From the people we’ve met, the places we’ve seen, and the experiences we've shared, we can definitely say that VIT has placed a lasting impression on each one of our lives. If the many academic and athletic achievements of the Class of 86 serve as any indication of future success, then undoubtedly the seniors will have bright and rewarding lives to look forward to. By Donna Butcher Connie at B.B. practice, ''Where'd the ball go?” Angie B. after P.E., holds up the wall! Rick trying to sneak in the girls R.R. at lunch hour! fsnior ufaf Russ, at lunch. Say what?! Ben, enthusiastically, dribbles ball during noon hour. Karen at cheerleading practice Are you lookin' at me? Correne, Smilin' Pretty.” afte class.

Now is the time when society and reality will weed out the weak and the strong will survive. Looking back on our class many strong and willing students will be proud to tell of their accomplishments in the future. Time can only tell who will be a preditor, and seek their dreams to the fullest, or who will be prey and only want their dreams to come true but are not willing to go forth and put out the effort. The future holds for us what we want and work for so we should never give up. We should always keep that one special dream tucked away with in us because that will make the work easier.

Finally, only one more step before the big leap into life; but first things first. The beginning of the 85-86 year had us worried. How were we ever going to raise enough money to pay for Prom?? The solution to our problem came through our successful cheese sales and later, our orange and grapefruit sales campaign. With the money predicament taken care of, we put our heads together to organize Prom. The end result was a very memorable event that represented our efforts. With the combined forces of each class member, the class of 87 managed to have a fun and productive year. We wish to extend a very special thanks to our sponsors, Mrs. Knowles and Mr. Looman for being so supportive of us this year. — Bobette Boggs, Pres. JUNIOR5 We love English!! — Nick R., Casey P-.

They were country and western day and dress up day, slob and inside out day. Disney day and kiddy day. punk rock and favorite star day. and green and white day. Each high school grade decorated their hall section. The halls were judged with the senior class taking first place. The seniors also sponsored their annual chili supper before the homecoming game.

Adrea, Russ, Joe Steve and Joe — Nedpurdy!” The 85-86 members of the Student Council supported several activities of significance this year. First, in September, our hurried and disorganized crew managed to produce a successful Homecoming.” Then, in December, the First Annual Student Council Christmas Party overtook the school. Clubs and classes competed for “trophies” by singing and performing skits. In March, the Student Council revived the “Sadie Hawkins Dance” — improvising iust a little to come up with a mini-festival. In April, the major purchase of the year, a popcorn maker, was chosen. Finally, in May, we sponsored a “Stay Alive — Don't Drink and Drive” week. Although only one student participated in our poster contest, everyone benefitted from the powerful message police officer Jim Owens presented. We hope you’ve enjoyed our activities, and we plan to continue bringing them to you in the future. Adrea and Becky Penny Drop Suzy Green, Jenifer Jones. Stacy Noe. Bill Wates. Becky Inman.

Skip Begley, we won the conference with a 5-0 mark and also defeated Lewistown. Mendon Unity and PORTA. Our first loss came from Havana after coming off of a big conference win over Pleasant Hill. Our next and last loss came in the playoffs against Monmouth Yorkwood. Although we did lose the game 20-7, we scored in the first minute of the game and went ahead 7-0. It was then, the enormously talented Yorkwood wore us out and scored three consecutive times. The team had a great time with Coach Begley and appreciated the fan’s support at the ball games.

Adrea Craft These last two snap pages show an overview of what VIT is all about. This “Off the Wall” view is shown from class room studies to assembly programs, from people like Merle Tingly to the crowds at the sports events, from planting trees in memory of Paul Connour to beginning band in fifth grade, from dances to waiting for the bell and taking part in extracurricular activities and finally to the wall. Enjoy the memories. Todd Conner Lee Coulter Johnny Dennis Joe Dutton Paula Flickenger Bethany Griffith Scott Haney Jay Hendricks Greg Hollenback Brad Hopping Stacy Hopping Jenny Johnson B.J.
