It was Mr. Zerkel's first attempt at directing a seriou play and it went over splendidly. The highlight of the year was the school’s first musical. The Music Man combined the talents of the orchestra, choir and drama students.

First semester the National Honor Society held their semi-annual induction and the drama club presented a one-act Christmas play. The Life Action Singers and Free Fare both provided musical entertainment and conveyed a valuable message. Wawasee students had a chance to display their talents at the annual talent contest. Kathy Koenigshof placed first in the individual category with an original piano solo and Mary Clark placed second with a humorous interpretation from PLAZA SUITE. The Wawasee Swing Choir placed first in the group category with the contemporary song Life is a Song Worth Singing” and Kathi Replogle and Sherry Young placed second.

Sandwiches and punch were served. 21 Starting above clockwise: Craig Sorensen walked to his seat: Dennis Spearman, Larry Allen and Steve Kroh seemed glad to have the whole ordeal over; Mr. Smith presented Steve Hoopingamer with his diploma: Kris Prickett and Eric Stewart shared a happy moment. 22 America is our future, and we are the future Wawasee's eighth annual commencement exercises brought an air of seriousness to the seniors of the class of '76. On Sunday afternoon, May 23, 232 seniors received their diplomas. The graduates chose the theme ”America is our future, and we are the future of America.” Jane Helvey and Dan Martin led the procession of seniors. Starting above clockwise: the seniors became Wawasee graduates: Kay Rowe and Harlan Hursey marched out after graduation: Mr. Kesler announced the names of the seniors as they received their diplomas.

Everyone knew the remarkable condition our school was kept in and was proud of it. Many students wouldn't readily admit this fact, but there was modesty in all of us. Keeping our school shining were the custodians. In safely transporting the Wawasee elements, the bus drivers played an important role. The food prepared in the cafeteria did an excellent job of keeping with our fine school standards. 32 Our staff works diligently!

Ball State; Joy Warner, B.F.A. Syracuse Univ., M.A. St. Frances; Nancy Glon, Ball State. 36 Art, like life, should be free. There were over 100 students grooving with the tunes this past year! A few of the songs played were Joi, Vaquero, ” Jesus Christ Superstar,” Sounds of Simon and Garfunkle, and William Tell Overature. The instructor was David Blackwell, B.M.E., M.S.

A stranger from a foreign country?; Steve Payne contributed to the lesson. Foreign Language served to acquaint students with worlds otherwise inaccessible.

Iowa State, M.A. Univ. of Neuchatel; Linda Kehoe, B.A., M.A. Ball State; Norma Rush, B.A. Manchester. 46 The accent is on Foreign Language.

Not only did the Home Economics Department offer cooking and sewing, but Bachelor Living, Child Care and Interior Decorating were also among other courses offered.

Sue Loetz and Dee Collins, into hysterics. The Language Arts department used its facilities to contribute to The Spirit of Freedom. Abstract as it may have seemed, through a broadened understanding and a deepened appreciation of our English language, we could discover a method of self-expression of our own, free from limitations. Among the many provocative programs were Advanced Speech, Contemporary Lit., Creative Writing, Theater Arts, College Prep, and Search for Identity. The Language Arts instructors were Sharon Hahnlen, B.S.

In strolling down the halls of Wawasee, taking in the various sights and smells, we could never ignore that distinctive fragrance emanating from the science rooms. Either the physical scientists were generating carbon disulfides, the chemists were igniting butane or the physiologists were dissecting pigs.
