Planning careers and prom With preparation for the prom, the juniors put in a hard year. Adding up the magazine sales and discussing plays were just a few of their concerns. They helped set examples for the underclassmen and had more responsibilities of their own, such as being elected Student Body President and attend- ing careers Day at Ravenna. Still, the days in high school are ones which are always cherished by everyone. 6

Clubs develop interests Organizations helped broaden the education of students through learning new ideas and techniques. They meant combining common interests and goals with friendship and fun. There were a variety of clubs offered for each person's interests. Organizations were a time for working with others, whether exhibiting animals at the State fair, giving a skit to get new members interested in an organization, going on a field trip, selling fruit, fitting a headline into the required space, or cheering your team on to a victory. The reasons for joining and rewards gained are different for each person, but everyone takes from it memories and a sense of accomplishment. 5

Activities fill seniors' days Encouragement, responsibility, and friendship were just a few words which could describe the senior class. The excitement of ordering senior announcements, or the pleasures of making a teacher feel old. As they went out on their own, they were given a taste of hard work from Mr. Hensley and Miss Bayne. Trying new adventures such as a barn dance was enjoyed by everyone, even though they disco danced instead of square danced. Also experienced by the seniors were river parties in the late spring. Although the days of their lives in high school were almost finished, the memories won't ever be changed.
