It’s a Jungle Out There For many students, high school life revolved around more than classrooms and social activities. Some found themselves dividing their time between school and work. The motivation to work was as varied as the workers themselves. Earning money for college, entertainment, clothing, cars, and family expenses all gave students a reason to look forward to picking up paychecks. Restaurants and retail stores proved to be the most popular avenues to earn an income, but some students found other kinds of work equally rewarding. Junior Craig Hulcy had his own lawn maintenance service which gave him the means to buy a car. '•It's a lot of hard work, and you have to be willing to take responsibility, he said. Senior Sokrum Huy worked in the personnel offices of Lakewood Bank. Like many students, she was in the work program and left school early to go to her job. I took the job so I would have experience for later. she said. Some students found themselves taking jobs they didn't really enjoy, but the hours and pay scale made them worthwhile. Until I have time to get a job I really like, I have to work at one that is less enjoyable, said junior Melinda Wales, a cashier at Popeyes.

HOMECOMING ’86 A Wild Night at Winfrey Dinner, dates, and dancing took place once again at Winfrey Point for the 1986 Homecoming Dance. Earning a football victory over Hillcrest the night before added to the excitement of the dance. Many hours were devoted to decorating and preparing for the dance by the Student Council. On Saturday night, girls busied themselves with fixing hair and makeup while guys hurried with last minute dinner plans and counting their money. At the dance, music was cranked up as loudly as possible, and loud chatter echoed through the room while students socialized with their friends. At the end of the dance, the homecoming court was announced with Erin Drury as the Countess, JoAnn Jurica as the Duchess, and Melissa Anderson as the Princess. Kelly Barginear was crowned Queen.
