Seniors ' 7 Debbie McMullen Debbie McNichols Dave Mello Eric Michael Kathy Miller Joe Misasi Spirited Seniors Anna Misko Joseph Mistrata Ben Modica In August 1975, the Class of 79 made its debut in the halls of West Leyden. Looking back four years later, the seniors saw what a major role high school has played in their lives. Freshman year brought hundreds of new faces and unfamiliar surround- ings into each members ' life, resulting in a confused and unsure class, willing to start out new and establish the Class of 79. Taking second place with their sophomore float and reigning as hall decorating champions, spirit spread throughout the class as the Sophomore Advisory Council got underway, with fund-raising as the major plan of action. In spite of the busy tasks they had ahead of them, the Advisory Council found time to concern themselves with the community by collecting for muscular distrophy and bringing cookies to the elderly. Junior year found the council finalizing the plans for the 1978 Prom, You Make Me Feel Brand New. The third year was a year of many questions about the future: College? Which one? Work? Where? Plans and decisions would soon have to be made. Their final year began with being awarded the spirit stick; the Class of 79 had come a long way from their totally silent response to the spirit cheer their freshman year. The uncertainty of the future became a growing concern for many seniors. It seemed that it would all lead up to the beginning of a new kind of life, starting out confused and unsure once again. 136
