Vocal music director Randal Davis sees to that. This year, the Acapella Choir, the New Tomorrows and the Mixed Chorus proved that students at Reserve are talented, Practicing every day and often many hours after school for special performances keeps the members in tip top condition. The highlight of the year was the musical Sound of Music. Christ- mas performances in community, fund raising projects and music contests consumed any extra time that the choir had available. Selling candy bars was the major fund raising activity. The New Tomorrows decked out in new costumes performed at many functions including the N.l-LS. installation and Christmas assembly. Time, talent and teamwork made for another successful year for the Vocal Music Department. Choirf71 S

She also starred in the hit musical Sound of Music at Reserve where she stopped the show with several of the hit songs sung by Maria . Randal Davis who is Susan's direc- tor at school as well as her private voice instructor classifies Susan as the best student he has ever had. The thing is her determination, drive and dedication. She has never given up and that is the difference, comment- ed Davis. Susan also credits strong support from her family, especially her moth- er, for her success. Davis alsostated that Mrs. Diane Evick, Susan's fifth grade teacher determined that Susan was serious and began working with her voice. He said that Mrs. Evich set good ground work. Susan says Mr. Davis is good for her. She has been working with him for 2 years. Susan is not just a good music stu- dent. She has a 4.0 overall average in a college prep course.
