“Lady in Red” Jackie McKeighen, walks straight into Mrs. Reiff’s camera flash when exiting the tropical scenes of paradise. Actually, several ladies in red appeared prom night, along with a few Scarlets. SENIORS r Vhe Whitko class of 1987, just like other zraduating classes, had meetings to decide colors, flowers, and most of all to be persuaded by salesmen from mug companies, pho- tography studios, an- nouncement companies, cap and gown agencies, and senior key companies. Mainly, each one asked for your (or your parent’s) money. Then, in the end, try to receive money from announcements to cover Senior class officers—Treasurer Nancy Huston, President Ron Betts, Vice-President Stacey Duggins, Secretary Donna Love. na HOME WILDCATS HITKO 1 SCHOOL OF THE iain ¥ on he. = . te a . : MA sgl Fe a] ea y APR as The Money and Times the senior debt. This may sound depress- ing, but it’s true. Being a senior is expensive, not to mention confusing, frus- trating, but the best time ever had in high school. But, money isn’t every- thing. To be asenior means to be influential to under- classmen and greatly influ- enced by decisions for the future. It’s a time when senioritis kicks in, and high school becomes somewhat trivial but more fun. To be a senior also means to get more ornery because you know you're out in a few weeks (the days are count- ed down in senior hall.)

Pregnancies this year will re- sult in faculty being gone partially or permanently next year. Such faculty members are business in- structors Mrs. Coats and Mrs. Beagley and guidance counselor Mrs. Imhoff. JAREERS CONCLUDE V This year will be easi- er to prove than next, that it has been more than just an- other school year. It was not so much because of the events but by those who made them possible. It was not because of where or when but because of whom. This year was special be- cause of the people. The list of those who made this year special was long, unfortunately that list shall be smaller as of next year. For one reason or an- other some of our faculty shall not return. First we have our “for one reason or another” people, who won’t be with us next year. These faculty mem- bers are English instruc- tors Mrs. Reiff and Mrs. Zogagi, Choir director Mrs. Wion, French instructor Mrs. Graham, PE instruc- tor Ms. Argerbright, and Athletic Director Mr. Hathaway. 12 FACULTY We also had a would-be hasta luego faculty mem- ber, who in her first year as Spanish teacher here at Whitko was even given a After sixteen years of dedi- cated work as a Librarian for this school system, Mrs. Kessie is re- tiring. She came here in 1970 farewell party under the impression she was leaving us. That was not the case, so Ms. Virgil will be return- ing next year. when Whitko was still known as the South Whitley High School. We wish her a very wonderful life. Bon Voyage!
