Not only did they listen to past stories, but they also p articipated in playing old games such as jacks, Chinese checkers, and horseshoes. In the cafeteria, all of the studen ts and staff finally got to rest after a long, fun day by eating their choice of different flavors of ice cream. Everyone had the p rivilege of signing their names on each other's 15Qth Celebration T-shirt. All of the joyful memories made, will bea partofISD's histo ry.

F.ach day of Spirit Week is dedicated to a particular theme, and the students take full advantage of the opportunity to break the normal dress code. "On Western Day, Dan Gulden was hilarious," said senior Justin Toole. "He dressed up as Gus Chiggens from Saturday Night Live, and it was the funniest thing all week. The week's festivities didn't end with the sound of the 6th hour bell. On Thursday, the excitement continued well into the night with the annual Homecoming Coronation. There the classes battled it out for bragging rights by way of a pie eating contest and a heated tugof-warbattle. DaniMescherandSeth Jackson were crowned Queen and King. "The funniest thing I remember was when Scooter Davis took his sbirtoffanddidpush-upsanda victozy lap even though he didn't win the pie eating contest," said senior Kyle Zaloudek. Thursday night ended with the musical stylings of the LC staff. I will never be Little Miss School Spirit again." - Dani Mescher Throughout their skit, they paid tribute to Ou~ played by Mr. FISCUS, Jessica Simpson, played by Mrs. McComas, and most notably, Christina Aguilera, played by Mr. Huth. They proved to the students that they, too, had school spirit. ''I loved it when the male teachers came out and did their dance. The whole skit was great," said senior Sara Gundlach. ''It was a fun night." Life's better here at LC, because students and staff aren't afraid to show their Titan spirit. They let everyone know that they are proud to be a part of the blue and white tradition.

Each person has memories that they will cherish for years to come. These memories all begin with spirit week and end with the "Big Dance." Spirit week starts off Homecoming week. This is the one time in school when everyone dresses in blue and white to show off their school spirit. It all leads up to the football game to start off Homecoming weekend. Everything is in anticipation of the "Big Dance". The day begins with everyone thinking how much he or she has to do in the little time in the day they have left. The girls have to get their hair, nails, and makeup done before they can put on the special dress they bought to wear only one night for the dance. The boys are much less complex. Although they still want to look good, they don't have to do so much to get ready. The night begins with a few upbeat songs to get the party started, followed by a few slow songs. After a while of dancing, a break dancing circle forms. Junior Kyle Penney, sophomore Sam Colpitts, and senior Johnny Kocourek show off their breakdancing skills while the entire school cheers them on. After the dance everyone goes home after a fun and enjoyable evening, dreaming of the next year when they can come back and do it all over again. Getting his groove on, sophomore Danny Hall shows off his unique style on the dance floor.

It's Dice at Lewis Central to not have to wear Hot Spots The Places You Want to Be Y:ou know you're in a hot spot when you have to circle the parking lot three times to find a parking space.You know you 're in a hot spot when you have to wait in line for a half hour. You know you're in a hot spot when you go to a fast food restaurant and they are all out of french fries. A hot spot is a place everyone has heard of and wants to be. How does a specific place become a hot spot? First, someone has to discover it. Then it gets spread by 'word of the mouth. They then become interested and go to that particular place. Afterwards, that person tells other people and the process continues, increasing the place's popularity. For a hot spot to be discovered, it must have distinctive traits that make it stand out from other places, such as its environment. The environment is based upon the friendly people, great food, fresh fashions, and events that take place there. For example, Aeropostale is a hot spot because of their trendy clothes and their great deals. Other things that make a blazing hot spot are the music, prices, and the conversations. The 79 cent tacos from Taco Bell are what make it a hot spot to eat out at. Life's better here at Lewis Central because we have ea:i.y access to all of the sizzling hot spots. Tastee Treat, Goodwill, and the movie theater, are all examples of hot spots close to our school. Having these quick routes not only makes that place more common, but also makes it a typical hot spot for Lewis Central students and faculty. After circling the parking lot three times, waiting in line for a half hour, and standing patiently while they make another batch of french fries, you finally realize: This is a hot spot.

"Our Town is anything but dated, it is timeless, it is simple, but also profound; it is full of genuine sentiment, which is not the same as its being sentimental; and, as far as its being uneventful, well, the event of the play is huge, it's life itself." says Donald Margulies in his forward to the script. The characters from this play are much more ordinary than characters in other plays. They are nice. They are plain. They are family. Thanks to their home style costumes, they have more of a conventional look. "The characters seemed a lot more real. They stood out and were very realistic. I think they seemed to hit it off better," said senior John Hansen. The play, as a whole, was extremely different than other plays, just as the characters were. Other plays didn't have a narrator throughout the whole play explaining all of the action. 'Our Town' was just simple and minimal. '1 think that people could relate to this play more. It had a very strong message to it," said junior Kellie Daffin. The production team got a big break because the set was completely stationary, so they didn't have to change scenes every time something took place on the set. But they still faced tough work behind the scenes. "Doing this play was a lot easier. But because it was so simple, we had to work even harder to meet our audience's expectations," said senior Alicia Mose. The play was successful due to the hard work and determination of the students, which is why life is better here.

Throughout the year they have done many fundraisers. Selling candy canes, Read Across America, and organizating the Tsunami Relief Dodge Ball Tournament taught students, 'to do the right thing when no one is looking.' Students in NHS have shown a great deal of leadership and character. "NHS has helped me to give what I can to others, which in return helps me to be a good student and role model," said junior Kaela Croushorn. The National Honor Society has done a great job in preparing students for the future in showing them some of the important aspects in life. "Since NHS sponsored the dodge ball tournament and I participated in it, it has shown me what, 'dodge balls' will be thrown at me in life," said senior treasurer Joel Edwards. The National Honor Society members worked vigorously to make life better at Lewis Central by bettering their school, their community, and themselves.

The Student Council at Lewis Central is involved in many different activities. Their most difficult challenge; however, is representing their class. Thirty-seven Student Council members were elected in May of 2004. They attend meetings and begin to plan out the new year. One of their first events is registration. Showing around the new freshmen students and parents is Student Council's first task. It is a ni opportunity to meet upcoming students and make them feel welcome. Throughout the year, Student Council works hard to organize two dances. Before the dance arrives, the members make and sell tickets advertise the dance with posters throughout the halls. The morning of the dance, Student Council wakes up early to begin decorating at 7 a.m. The · finish around 1 p.m., just in time to get ready for the big night. Both Homecoming and SnoBall were suc~ful events for Student Council this year Looking to become more than a "dance committee," Lewis Central reached out to other Student Councils. They sent letters to the Hawke 10 conference schools. They also visited Harlan and Abraham Lincoln to observe their meetings andget ideas for the future. It was a good experience for the members because they had the chance to find new ideas and activities. Again this year, Student Council organized Mr. LC, an entertaining show full of crazy talent. With high scores in the formal wear, interview and talent, Seth Jackson was chosen as the new 2005 Mr. LC. As the result of the earnings from Mr. LC, two scholarships are awarded They are selected by the members of Student Council. A $500 scholarship is awarded to a student that isn't involved in Student Council. The second scholarship of $250 is awarded to a Student Council senior. This year's recipients were Heath Epperson and Ellen Nuss. A new, exciting and popular event was the LC Dodgeball Tournament. The recent movie "Dodgeball" left many students wanting to participate. The tournament raised money for the Tsunami relief fund Even after the purchase of new dodgeballs, the Student Council with the help of NHS raised more than $1,000. Based on all of their accomplishments this year, the Student Council was very su~.

''Working with everyone almost everyday gave me a lot of trust in my teammates," said freshman Lindsey Toole. ''I became better friends with everyone and it made me want to work harder." The main hardships the team faced were people out with injuries and disciplinary problems. The Titans didn'tlet those challenges hold them back. The team had two shut out games against Hamburg and Woodbine. "We didn't kill teams that often, so it was a blast when we did. It felt so good and boosted our confidence," said freshman Sarah Williams. By working hard and striving for excellence, the Titans kept improving.

The squad was lead by co-captains Abby Feller and Lyndsey Howell. The captains took charge and brought the girls closer as a team. Coach Tracey Mc Vey said, ''It was a huge impact on the squad to lost nine seniors last year. The four seniors we have this year, stepped up and worked well together. Since we had good leadership, the team made it through difficult times and the girls backed each other up as a team." This year the cheerleaders got a chance to cheer at two state competitions, girls basketball and wrestling. "My most memorable moment was when the girls got to cheer at Vet 's. We haven't cheeredatstatebasketballforsomanyyears,so itwasveryexciting,"saidcoachTraceyMcVey. The Lewis Central cheerleading squad had a successful year and grew very close. Even though the season's over, the girls still, and always will, cheer for the Titans. Wor ki ng the crowd, the squad gives the cheer t hei r all.

They brought back four starting seniors, who added strength and confidence, and led the team to a 29-7 season. The boys wrestled at ten duals tournaments, placing in all of them. They placed first at districts. Placing first at state was junior Mike Stamp and sophomore Jimmy Waters. Third place fnishers included senior Tobyn Ward, and juniors Luke Stamp and Jeff Rau. Not far behind placing fourth was senior Scooter Davis. Other state qualifiers were seniors Kyle Zaloudek, Nate Vanderloo, and :freshman Joey J erkovich. This season Davis and Ward had the most wips, both accumulating 49 wins each. Waters had the most takedowns ending the season with168 and Jerkovich had the most reversals.

I enjoy the fair t achera Sprinting into the season, the Titan boys track team has taken care of many goals for the year. The boys have placed mostly first and second at their meets, and the 4 x 100 relay team qualified for the Drake Relays. "Track this year has been really fun because we have been performing awesome," said junior Alex Smith. Senior leadership has also played an important role in the Titans success this year. Ten seniors will be leaving the team after this season and it will be very difficult to replace them. "The seniors this year showed us all great leadership and were great role models," said freshman Curtis Dreager. The 4x100 team of Jordan Besco, Damon Coyle, Brad South, and Jeremy Yates got a time of 4~.16 to qualify for the Drake Relays. Trent Coyle, Jackson Dick, and Andy Edison were alternates. "I was really happy to be able to attend Drake because I knew I was one of the fastest in the state. The greatest part was staying in the hotel and meeting other athletes and rockin' the frisbee at Drake stadium," said sophomore Jordan Besco. At districts this year, the boys placed second overall. This was the best finish in 1 7 years. They qualified for state in the long jump, shot put, 3200 meter run, 4 x 400, 4 x 200, distance medley, and 200 meter dash.

Everyone performed better than expected and it was a great way for seniors to end their last season. Life's better here because the Titan boys' track team will continue to strive for higher goals. "Next year we 're going to miss the seniors, but I think the juniors are ready to step up and take their places. We should be just as successful next season," said junior Adam Cooney.

Whether it is an argument or an explanantion, people always say to listen to both sides. That is the same with this past school year. Whether in the classroom, on the playing field, or even out on the town, there are two sides to every story. Even each person has two different sides to their personality; to what makes them who they are. Especially the Class of 2005. More often than not, our class was seen as the "goody-goodies," the ones who will not get in trouble, and always do their work. Well, we are focused, but we also know how to have fun, in our Freedom time. 2A Op e ni ng Being focused is the first part of the story.

How we are involved, what we do, and why it affects us. We are focused in our classes using our Brains, we are focused on the field as Athletes, and we are focused in our organizations, Involvement. I cannot even count how many times I heard "please focus" in class, or "you're not focusing!" on the field. It is hard for anyone to focus on something they do not desire. Which is why this year came as a huge surprise. From the start, we were all focused. School was not as easy to focus on, but we managed. The success of the very well-focused football team led the school and city to its first-ever football state championship. The dance team has always been focused, but this year they reached a new height bringing home all three first-place trophies. Being focused means knowing what you want, and going for it. It means not being afraid to take new chances and daring to dream. Being focused means being who you are and loving every minute of it. This year was a year we saw how being focused could change the future and we were able to grab hold of that and take it for all it could be. So, to the teachers, faculty, students, graduates, mY fellow classmates, here's to the focus we pulled together, and to the future we are ma Cara Loveya, Cool ~ Yearbook Edito team's focus.

In Brit Lit I learned about alliterations, sonnets, read Shakespeare and other British authors, all the while enjoying Mrs. Idella Spann's quirky sense of humor. I was lucky and was able to learn from a great teacher in two classes, the other being Creative Writing. My favorite project was when we got to make our "mushy" valentine love poem. Who knew cliches could be so fun? Some people think that when you're a senior you should take easy classes, but I'm glad I didn't do that. If you don't want to learn anything, it is easy to achieve that, but you also don't experience anything, and that is a big part of being a senior. I learned many things, and really enjoyed my senior year. Along with making great memories with my friends, I had some good experiences at school to make my final year really worthwhile. - senior Kyla Kenkel •••••••••••••• • Mrs. Barb Schmidt helps CJ.

In one respect, they're right, it IS just a high school newspaper. But in every other way, they're dead wr~ng. For me, working on the newspaper was an obvious choice. I want to be a journalist when I grow up. What better way to see what I was made of than to be a part of the journalism staff? I learned how to build and design pages. Catie (O'Malley) and I are the headline and caption queens. As assistant editor, I had to work on the paper late nights and long hours. One of the perks, though, was using my trademark blue pen to tear up the unsuspecting J-1 's rough drafts. Hey, I never said I was nice. I learned how to be a leader, how to handle a crisis, and how to be confident in my decisions. I will miss all of the people I got to work with, and I will especially miss journalism.

All of us were overwhelmed by the load of papers and numbers of trees that were cut down in order for all them to all be made. Later on, we were doing labs and senior Alan Wickersham spilled a chemical all over the lab table. Mr. Randy Schmitz had to actually put on his lab coat, gloves, and goggles to clean it up, because safety comes first. In order to clean up he had to cause a reaction by using baking soda to neutralize the area where Alan had spilled. After it was all cleaned up and Mr. Schmitz had put all his supplies away, Alan spilled again. This time cleaning it up was on his own with the technique he had learned by watching Mr. Schmitz.

But every year, there is one class I looked forward to taking again; it is art. This is one class that was filled with good times and laughter. A relaxing time where I could enjoy drawing, painting, and listenting to music with all the students who have taken the same stepping stones as I have to reach Art 4. These seniors have piled up a lot of great memories: Aaron Romano drawing Super Mario Bros. or some cartoon, Phil Koch always making Ms. Deb McGuire's day that much more of a task, Marty Burke sitting in the window drawing me a picture, Lindsay Schnitker always asking, "Bom, will you help me draw this?", Brandon Fischer and his obsession with tractors and cows, Emily Propst showing me up with her fun and creative ideas, Danielle Grudle alwaY5 striving for perfection, Danielle Pogge and her amazing paintings, Betsey Mooney's colorful creativity and of course, Ms. McGuire's care and guidance. These are just a few of the things I will never forget. Art is a time to really find true character in yourself and in others.

It should have been filled with joy, excitement, and easy classes, so what was I doing in Calculus? Sometimes, I still ask myself this question. As I took my seat in the Mr. Robinson Luke's frigid classroom, I froze not only from the cold seat, but also from the fear of the unknown. I mean, this was Calculus. Why did I put this class on my schedule? Did I have a death wish? I'll blame it on temporary insanity. However, my fears melted away when Mr. Luke enthusiasticly bounced into the room with a smile on his face. After the first week of Cale, it became my favorite class. Yeah, the work was hard and the concepts were confusing, but Mr. Luke made everything fun, and even better, not impassible. Mr. Luke taught me about limits, derivatives, and chain rule, but more impartantly, he taught me how to enioy mY5elf, even if I was in Calculus class. My best memory isn't learning a difficult math problem or even acing a test, but it was listening to Mr. Luke's stories and getting to know him and my classmates better. I learned about his van's sound system, Thanksgiving traditions, and first job experience. I was lucky to have Mr. Luke for Calculus because of his great teaching skills, but also because of his interesting personality. - senior Abby Jares Mr. Robinson Luke teaches derivatives to his Calculus students.

I have not only improved myself vocally, but I have also learned an important concept. I have learned how to be a part of a team. You might ask, "Why is choir a team?" The reason is because the people within it work together to achieve a goal. For example, I have learned that voices in a choir should blend together into one voice. This can only occur if everyone contributes and works together. If a person is removed, so is some of the sound. One person cannot make a choir; it takes many people to form a choir. Every person in choir has had a privilege to be a part of something great this year. We have all come together to form the best choir that I have been a part of thus far. We have improved in the past few years, and I am sure that we will continue to do so in the future. - junior Ross Caniglia ---------------------- ..... Senior Luke Shanno loves to toot his own horn.

I was blessed to have two classes with Mr. Easterling: World History and Economics. In World History, it was my first time in Mr. Easterling's class. Being a scared sophomore, I was still worried about my GPA. Therefore, I was highly attentive and did all my homework. By having World History for a full year, I learned how his classes worked and took my newly attained knowledge to Economics. In Econ, I secretly knew that Mr. Easterling wasn't as tough as he tried to make everyone think. He actually had a (gasp) kind side. I learned in Econ that you either understand it or you do not. Unfortunately for me, I did not understand it. However, Mr. Easterling was alwaY5 there to help me, which happened to be a lot. I was in there after school so much that it began to feel like my second home. However, I managed to survive both World History and Econ with a "B" average. Besides just learning about Rome and surpluses, there are things I will never forget about his class. I will never forget how he let Emily Propst hit him with a role of Scotch tape, or how he tried so hard not to smile and act tough, and of course, I will never forget all the valuable material we discussed in class. - senior Jessica Goeser By : Abby Jares Mr. Drew Kruzich helps freshman Carly Pfeffer by filling in the assignments she will miss.

(photo by Jen Anderson} RELIGION/ p • E • Religion is one of the required courses at school each semester, yet it is the subject that separates St. Albert from the public schools. The best part about religion, besides learning about God, is making group videos. I will always remember the Passion of Christ in New Testament and the historical videos in Church HistorY. Throughout high school it seems like religion teachers come and go more than any other subject. Still, Fr. Phil Hobt and Mr. Tom Heithoff have been teaching religion at St. Albert for as long as I can remember, and their classes are enjoyable year after year because of the variety of group work we do. Besides doing group videos, there is also group discussion, speeches, presentations, and posters. Now that my Catholic education is over, I will look back at what I have learned in religion at St. Albert. - senior Jonathan Kramer Junior Matt Herrington goes up and asks Mr. Michael Sullivan for help on a test in Prayer and Liturgy.

(photo by Steve Theu/en) In April 2003, when my wife and I were living in Melrose, Mass., iust outside Boston, she finished her dodorate in theology and accepted a tenure-track position at Creighton University. I accepted this development with bittersweet feelings, as I wanted her to be able to follow her dream, but I also wanted to stay at Austin Preparatol'Y School in Reading, Mass., where I had taught during our years in the Boston area and where I had tenure as a history teacher. We moved to Omaha in July 2003. The first year here I substituted at some schools in Omaha and looked for a high school teaching position. Since I am certified in history, I looked for a history slot. That did not open up for me. As the By: Steve Theulen next school year approached, I experienced a sort of "dark night of the soul," in which I felt old and unemployable. Then I saw an advertisement for a religion teacher at St. Albert Jr./Sr. High School in Council Bluffs. I received an invitation to interview, and a few days later Mrs. Andersen called to offer me theiob. I had never experted to move back to the Midwest. I had never experted to have such a hard time finding a teaching position. I had never experted to teach religion. I found through this experience that God speaks in enigmatic ways, but I feel His love for me in direding me to this wonderful place. Indeed, it is a school where the students are friendly and hilarious, where the teachers are welcoming and helpful, and where the administration is supportive of the contributions I can make to the school community. This was certainly God's will for me, and I thank Him for it. - Mr. Michael Sullivan Sullivan teaches eighth-grade religion.

As they acted and reacted, so did the rest of the school. These seniors were best known because they could get together and function as a group. The State Championship football was one example; World Mission was another. Nobody wanted to mess up, because no one wanted to miss a game. Most of my study halls started with large groups, but after the first day of hearing Mr. Vogel's "Guides to Happiness in the Cafeteria," as a group, a lot of them left and took real classes, except for a few stragglers. I also had some new duties this year, like the lunch money and expanded attendance duties. The seniors helped me by mainly making the study halls easy to control. These seniors were known for volunteering to wander the halls and visit people for verY strange reasons. I am only glad I had the opportunity to deny them so many of these visits. - Mr. Tim Vogel Senior Shawn Moran proudly receives his diploma at graduation.

Some, on the other hand, feel as though they contribute through their attendance record. Which works, for them. However, for the ones who see extracurriculars as a positive place to spend time, St. Albert has some of the finest. The NHS always grabs attention with the ceremony they put on to indud new members of service, charader, scholarship, and leadership. The Student Council is always throwing out new and fun ideas for our school. And as always campus/peer ministry does a wonderful job of making Mass an exciting place and happening event for the school. The different clubs and extras St. Albert has offer strong opportunities for students to focus on being involved in school and the future. - senior Cara Cool on Senior Jonathan Kramer escorts sophomore Katie Gilliand at the NHS induction.

This year, the Student Council accomplished a lot of things, from all of the dances to Homecomfog Week, Red Ribbon Week and Catholic Schools Week. We donated money for the new painting in the gym and the new atrium planter dirt for the biology department. We sold bracelets in honor of Alex Morrow to give to the Class of2013 Scholarship Fund. It was a fun filled year that I will never forget. I couldn 't have done it without the rest of the St11dent Body, Kristin, Steve, Bra11don and Gina . Everyone was dedicated to working hard, coming early for meetings, most of the time, even if it was just for the doughnuts. Ms. Mooney and Ms. Oatman took the reigns of the Student Cmmcil this year and helped us along, we couldn't have done it without them. Now, as I am writing this, the day after Mr. SA, I know that we pulled off another great even, even if things weren't looking so great. I also have come to realize that Mr. SA was that last event that the council was in charge of. Part of me is relieved that it is almost over, it has been a busy year, but the other part is saddened, because never again will this same group of leaders be gathered in one group to pull off another Mr. SA, or another Homecoming Pep Rally. Hopefully everyone enjoyed this year as much as I did, even though it was a lot of work. I can't begin to thank everyone enough for all their hard work and dedication. It was a great journey.

Ever since I was younger, I have alwaY5 wanted to be in Campus/Peer Ministry. There is so much to be involved in. From setting up Masses, to reading morning prayer, to having the lunch with the kindergarten through third grade, ministry at school is appealing. It is a way for me to express my faith and a way to be involved in Mass at school. Going to St. Albert has given me that advantage.

This caused for a lot of new faces on the varsity field and a lot of changes. The season was full of ups and downs. Also a lot of freshmen (recently graduated eighth.graders at the time) had to step up and take key positions in the outfield and other spots. Throughout the season a lot of positions were switched and many starters were young. The Saintes inexperience and youth sometimes showed. The beginning of the season was very rocky, but everyone always tried their best. As the season went on the Saintes' hard work showed in a couple of close games to big schools like LC. Then in the first distrid game against Underwood the Saintes lost by only three and held Underwood to zero for most of the game. Underwood then went on to state. The Saintes worked hard this season. They played with heart and built up skills for next year.

The Falcons were expeding a close game with Underwood. The rivalry game quickly turned into a spanking with SA experiencing the new continuous clock rule. This was a change to the old 50 point rule. Each game other than the finale against Riverside had continuous clock at some point in the game. SA entered the playoffs as the No. 1 team in the state in the polls. The polls didn't lie. The first two games of the playoffs were walks in the park for the Falcons. SA shut out Akron Westfield 35-0, then went on to dominate Underwood 45-14. The Falcons advanced to the Dome for a second year in a row. At the Dome, SA faced a tough AWGSR team, but Brandon Fischer ran past them, running for over 300 yards and 5 TDs.

Both teams had great seasons and really improved throughout the season. Neither team had a losing record and look to set the foundation for the future of Falcon football.

"My favorite game was Blair because we were supposed to lose but we killed them by 20 points," said freshman Steve Jensen. With two succesful teams playing hard all season it's clear there won't be a letdown in effort from the championship varsity team. These two teams played a key role in pradice against the varsity who won the 1 A State Championship, and look to carry on the Falcon football tradition in the years to come.

(photo by Ky/a Kenkel) The first quarter was a defensive struggle, with neither team able to put together a sustained drive. At the beginning of the second quarter, St. Albert appeared to be gaining momentum, but things went sour. A holding penalty negated a touchdown and a fumbled snap gave the ball right back to GladbrookReinbeck. The Falcons forced a punt and started moving forward once again. On third down at the 18-yard line, senior Justin Belt gave an amazing effort to dive and catch the pass from sophomore quarterback Nolan Batten. The initial signal from the side iudge was a touchdown, but the back iudge overruled and called it an incompletion. The Falcons settled for a field goal and took a 3-0 lead. The Rebels ran back the ensuing kickoff to midfield and kicked a field goal to tie it at halftime. The defensive struggle continued into the third quarter. After G-R picked off a Batten pass, they seemed poised to score. The defense held and forced a field goal attempt, but an offsides penalty gave the Rebels a first down. G-R took the ball inside the 1-yard line, but the Falcons defense stymied two plays up the middle, and took over on downs. After the teams traded possessions to start the fourth quarter, the Falcons finally got what they were looking for. A 33-yard option play to senior Brandon Fischer with just less than four minutes left gave the Falcons the lead for good, but not without a fight. Fischer finished with 178 yards and a 1A championship game record 33 carries. G-R took the ball down to the Falcons 8-yard line with a little under a minute to go. The Rebels ran to inside the 1-yard line, and overtime appeared imminent. The Falcons defense disagreed. The Rebels tried a quarterback sneak but were short. G-R tried to line up fast and catch SA off guard, but their plan backfired. Not all their men were set, and the penalty drove the Rebels back 5 yards. G-R threw an out pass, but senior cornerback Shane Bendgen tackled the receiver before the end zone and inbounds. The Rebels hurried to the line, but the seconds ticked off, and the title was won.

Thirty-one student athletes participated in bowling. Under a fourth-year veteran coach in Mr. Ken Mehsling, the Falcons and Saintes put together their most productive year to date. The JV girls won every duel that they bowled in, which was a great accomplishment considering this was the first year the girls were able to fill a JV roster. Mehsling is looking forward to next year already. He said, "The girls are looking forward to qualifying for state next season, and with the exception of one junior, all the Saintes are underclassmen." The varsity girls team was led by freshman Val LeMaster. The boys team recorded a three-win season, which tripled their count from the previous year. The Falcons also reached a major goal in qualifying for the state bowling tournament. The boys posted a second-place finish at the sub-state meet to punch their ticket to the state toumament.

The Falcons ended the regular season with a 9-4 record. After losing two heartbreaking games to Elkhorn Mount Michael and Skutt at the beginning of the season, the Falcons bounced back by rattling off five straight wins. The Falcons then lost a hard· fought game against the Class 1-A No. 1-ranked Glenwood Rams. The Falcons then won four of their last five games to conclude the regular season. These wins consisted of victories over Sioux City East (5-0), ADM (1-0), Tri-Center (5-0), and crosstown rival Lewis Central (3-2). Before the Lewis Central game, the Falcons lost another hard-fought game to Thomas Jefferson at City Field. Regardless of this loss, the Falcons still ended up city champions. The Falcons had some highlight games from the 2005 season. These games included hanging tough with eventual state champion Elkhorn Mount Michael and also playing a good game against No. 2-ranked Skutt.

The offense was led by senior Laura Bomgaars with help from fellow senior Kristin McGlade and junior Gina Assmann. The midfield proved strong, including senior Abby Jares and newcomer sophomore Mollee Collins. On the other end of the field, junior Meghan Crowley started in the goal for her third consecutive year and was aided by senior sweeper Cara Cool and senior stopper Catie O'Malley. The girls always believed in themselves, and that is what led them to the games of their lives. In the first round of districts, the Saintes flew past Riverside 6-0. They then were to face longtime rivals Glenwood. In a hectic and crazy fight through overtime, Assmann finally punched the ball in for a 3-2 victory. Never making things easy on themselves, the girls had to go into a shootout after going scoreless through two overtimes against Waukee. Behind a stellar performance from keeper Crowley and scores from Bomgaars and Collins, the Saintes won the shootout 2-1. For only the second time in school history, the Saintes reached state. A first-round loss of 6-0 to Cedar Rapids Xavier was a sad way to end, but Muscatine was the final destination. Even though state came to an abrupt end, the season was one to make a mark.

The boys team will miss its key players next year, but the Falcons look as though they will still be good. The girls won't be losing seniors, so they will all have a good start for next year's season. The boys golf team consisted of seniors Shane Bendgen, Jonathan Kramer and Luke Shanno, junior John O'Malley, and sophomores Shawn Daley and Chris McKenzie. The boys golf team had a good roll winning meets. At the L.C. Invite the boYS got in the top 10, finishing with a seventh-place medal. The girls golf team had many new members, all being underclassmen. The team included juniors Kellie McGruder and Mackenzie Schnitker. The new members were sophomores Katie Gilliland and Heather Beaman, and freshman LeMaster. The girls struggled with the loss of 2004 graduate Katie McGruder, so they were off to a slow start at the beginning. Soon they started to get closer to a first-place finish. The girls were led by Kellie McGruder in the city meet. She got eighth place with a 108. The team placed fourth during the city meet, ending the tw~year winning streak.

Sophomore Michelle Farrage received first at No. 3 singles. Seniors Kama Bergeron and Hayley O'Hara finished second at No. 1, and Beckman and Farrage got first at No. 3 doubles. The team lost a few players throughout the season but still continued to improve and win meets. Their season started with a meet won against Thomas Jefferson. The season ended at regionals in Shenandoah where Farrage placed third. The tennis team had fun riding in Coach Phyllis Damgaard's van, on the court winning or losing, and had fun at pradice.

For the first time in school history, the team placed three firsts at the Iowa Dance/Drill Team Compeition in December: first in Class IV Pom, first in Class II Jan, and first in Class I Novelty. Although the team seemed to be together a talented group of dancers, this team's success came from hard work, time, and dedication. Starting from the beginning of the summer, the team pradiced five daY5 a week starting at 6:30 a.m. The dance team's season lasts from June to mid March, which makes a very busy schedule for the girls. Dedication is having to be mentally tough through the whole season and loving dance with Your whole heart. "Even though our team was bigger, younger, and less experienced, we unexpededly came home from state with a triple crown!" said junior Katelyn Crouch. Although the team believed in the quote, "Work hard and good things will happen," they also strove for one thing: perfedion. Coach Kathie Guinan was there to stress that pradice does not make perfed, however, perfed pradice does make perfed. Living by this statement made pradices a heck of a lot harder. Striving for perfection meant 16 girls dancing the ex.ad same way at the ex.ad same time. As well as being talented dancers, the dance team became a strong group of friends and a strong team. Focusing on team and not individual glory has augmented the team's success. Senior Kyla Kenkel (wolf), sophomore Mary Weidman, junior Rachael Showers, and senior Catie O'Malley perform "Wolf Mix."

The cheerleading squad also does the locker signs, the run-through signs for the football team, the pep rallies, and the valentines. "Valentine's Day was fun getting everything ready and handing them out to all of the high schoolers and little kids," said freshman Danielle Cain. The cheerleaders also had the opportunity to cheer on the state championship football team, which was a great experience for them, and they led the student body well at the UNI-Dome. Senior captain Danielle Pogge said, "The Dome was awesome becuase we won and it's so much fun cheering." The cheerleading squad has expanded for a couple of months the past few years with the addition of the Stunt Men. The Stunt Men helped the cheerleaders pull off challenging stunts at the pep rally. "Stunt Men was awesome," said Pogge. The cheerleaders do a lot to make the student body better and are always doing the jobs that people overlook. They help lead the pep rallies and keep the crowd pumped up. "Cheerleading's fun and everyone should do it, .. said Cain.

As you flip through this book you can see the many differences, and the contrast of sides. However, coming to the end of this side, it is more apparent what the focused drive this year has brought. Everything in life has opposites and similarities; just as each person. So what better way to make the book than to have two sides to our story? The Focus side played out to its name, as we pushed ourselves to the limits, and broke through those boundaries. The classroom always brings forth the striving for knowledge and the yearning to learn. Athletics are an activity where people want to focus; this year, we soared to many new heights. The championship in football was an extreme success for the guys who played and also for the community around it. Many students are always involved in the school system and put their time and effort into bettering the school and year. Now that we see how being focused can lead to successful times, we hope that this year was only the beginning of great things to come. To the underclassmen, live every second of high school to the fullest moment you have here. It should be an exciting time, thrilling time, moving time. Just do not let high school run your life. Make sure you live for you and strive for the goals you desire. To the teachers, thank you. We may not have always been listening in your class, but we learned so much from you. You set examples for us and have made high school, school. To the new seniors, whom we truly call friends: Good luck! Enjoy all of the few days you have left. You have made our experiences at school more crazy because of who you are. Be good, be crazy, be excited, come to school to spend what little time you have left with one another. And finally to our fellow graduates, the class of 2005 (the greatest group of people to graduate with), we just want to say this has been the ride of a lifetime. From the little days in elementary, to the pointless days where we left school like running out the doors, to the exciting days where 22 or so of us skipped, to the day of where all our focus paid off, graduation, we have been with each other. Some have come and gone but forever have changed our lives. We have shared with each other our thoughts, dreams, tears, fears, laughs, screams, and every other emotion. Now, as we go our separate ways, we hope this book will be with you for always, just as we hope all of our memories will be in your hearts always. We thank each of you individually for being the person you are, and the person you will become. You are all truly gifts to the world. Now go, smile always, laugh often, love greatly, and live big as an example for your peers beneath you. Hope you enjoyed it, • • • • • • Cara Cool and Kyla Kenkel • • : s· : • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • u c c E E D • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • 100A Oosing Yearbook Editors s K I L L Seniors Joey Knuth, Brandon Fischer, and Gable Andrews stretch before track practice.

If you have the good fortune to be a student at St. Albert Junior/Senior Catholic High School, that's one more year than it takes to complete seventh through 12th grade. If you are one of the people pictured on this page, even though you are now away (or across town) at college or out in the real world of work as you read this for the first time in the fa ll of 2005, seven years ago you had not spent so much as one day as a student on the campus at 400 Gleason. (For those of you with short memories, you were the last class to complete sixth grade at the old intermediate school on the west end of town. For those of you on this page who attended public school through sixth grade, yes, there used to be a St. Albert Intermediate School on the west end of town.) Anyway, if you are the person writing this letter, you did arrive at 400 Gleason in the fall of 1998. (Wow! Look at all the fo rmer Math Club members on this page doing the subtraction in their heads to confirm that that was seven years ago.) Which means you (me?) were already a wily veteran of the SA school system when the Class of 2005 arrived on campus all bright-eyed and eager to learn in the fa ll of 1999. And as a special t1·eat, the Class of 2005 were seventh-graders the only year 1 was assigned a seventh-grade study hall. As a result, one or two of you on this page are the only students lucky enough (?) to spend parts of fi ve of your six junior high and high school years in my classroom. By eighth grade, all of you got to spend one quarter taking Exploratory Newspaper in Room I 02. (Added bonus: That year, I started teaching eighth-grade study hall, so some of you were in the room twice a day.) And what a marve lous Exploratory year that was, as you continued to amaze me quarter after quarter with your ability, your creativity and your strong work ethic. Heck, you even invented Baloney. As I pondered your potenti al as eventual members of the high school journalism program, my heart soared. The future indeed looked bright. And t11 ere were so many of you in that eighth-grade class. How would the journalism program hold so much talent? Well, whether you were in Math Club or not, you probably can count to 14, t11e number of people pictured on this page. Eleven of the 14 are seniors who completed their second year of high school journalism in 2005 . The three others - Catie, Abby, Luke - are the first group to take Journalism 3 from me, meaning they spent three of their high school years in the program. (Coincidence that I asked the principal whether sophomores could start taking J-1 right before the Class of 2005 became sophomores? I think not.) So where's everyone else? Well, the mass exodus at the end of eighth grade to such exotic locales as Tri-Center, Duchesne and A.L. took away chunks of the talent. And some members of the Class of 2005 never quite found a way to fit the class into their schedules. Others showed up for J-1 but left after a semester or two, or even three. (Hi, Aubrey !) A special shout-out seems appropriate here for the two members of the Class of 2005 - Aaron R. and Beth - who did spend their entire sophomore and junior years in the program, and for the one member who fin ally took J-1 as a senior. (Jimmy, we could have put you to good use if you'd shown up a little sooner.) So in the end, the 14 seniors on this page (along with nine J-2 juniors) ran the show for the 10 issues of the 2004-05 Accipiter and for the two sides of this yearbook. The girl who took charge in Exploratory without an offici al leadership titl e now had one: newspaper editor. (Thanks for not moving to Texas.) The gi:I who sat way in the back corner of eighth-grade study hall , some days exulting about making dance team, other days moping about not making Student Council, now was editor of the yearbook. (Thanks for staying on top of the ball.) With plenty of help from the rest of the staff, including those boys who sang that indec ipherable song back in junior high, they managed not to fall. And I think that I will miss them.

Love, Mom, Dad, Josh, and Tyler Once you were a little girl all dressed in pink, Who used a chair to reach the sink. Then you grew up and pink was no more, Any other color is what you wore. Friends, movies, and clothes were cool, But how would you attord them, what about school? You got a job and made your own money. Your life was busy, plus now you had a honey. Schools, sports, and volunteering were in check It seems like now we were losing our Beck Pink is again cool and so is a certain boy. Looking ahead to the future brings you much joy. Sioux City you're bound to get a nursing degree, We bet you are thinking "I'm finally free!" When you finally leave, we'll probably be a wreck, but we want you to know, you'll always be our little "Beck"! We love you so much, Mom and Dad It seems like only yesterday We watched you leave for school For the very first time. Now it is twelve short years later And we're watching a young woman, Ready to challenge life for the first time . In a few short weeks You' U be going off to college And it will be another first time. Life is made up of many first times. The first time you ride a bike, The first time you fall in Jove, The first time you see your baby's face And the first time you realize your little girl has become a young woman Of whom you can be extremely proud. We love you and wish for you a life of many exciting first times. Seize them all and enjoy your future. Love, Mom, Dad, Alexis, and Abbey Congratulations! We are so very proud of you, now and always.

These impressions of the past year are captured in pictures that fill these pages. Every picture tells a story whether it was a winning touchdown, a big performance at a band competition, or just a group of friends who took time out at a dance to pose. As you turn the pages, you will remember memories that have left impressions on your life. Some of which were good and some were bad, but above all, they left an impression that will stay with you for the rest of your life. This book isn't just a bunch of stories and pictures thrown together, but a collection of memories that should be held dear .. Some people say that once they are out of high school, they will not look back but those words will soon haunt them. Even though you might have had bad times in high school, the impressions have left their mark on you and they cannot be erased . So enjoy the book which is in front of you and don't forget the impressions that have made you who you are. 2 Division Right. Students fill the hall on second floor before the bell rings.

These activities are what you do on the weekends and at school dances.This section is dedicated to you and your friends and all the impressions that have been made. The war left an impression on many students and teachers. In some way or another, everyone is affected by it whether you know someone overseas or are training to go overseas. What would school be without dances? Sure, barely anyone dances, but it's a great way to hang out with friends, pose for pictures, dress up, and listen to a variety of music. Some people can say the dances are fun while others say it's a waste of time, either way they left an impression. One dance that stands out in everyone's mind is Prom. This is the dance everyone looks forward to, even students who hate dances. Students spend hundreds of dollars to look their best and enjoy a night on the town. Senior Honor Day and Graduation follow soon after Prom. Honor Day is a day filled with speaker upon speaker, honoring the seniors for their hard work and dedication. Graduation may be the most anticipated event of the year. 4 Division Right. Senior Cory Leslie looks at pictures of his cousin who is a Marine and was deployed in February of 2004.

Most students like to spend their summer living on the beach, hanging out with friends or on a get-a-way vacation. However, this pair of seniors decided to spend their summer differently; at boot camp. Seniors Nate Jastorff and Brandie Bittenbender spent their summer in Fort Jackson, South Carolina. " You don't really notice how much you have unti l it's taken from you and you are nothing," Jastorff said. This pair spent the summer training and becoming all they could be. They learned many things such as self-defense, discipline and respect for others and themselves. Jastorff spent his first few days adjusting to the change, 6 Student Life such as limited sleep, and using the phone just three times for a time span of three months. Being alone with no one you know is harder than anyone can imagine. "I wasn't home sick, I didn't miss much of anything," Bittenbender said. Bittenbender saw this experience in a different way than Jastorff. "At first I doubted myself, thinking I wouldn't be able to make it through, but after a few weeks it wasn't that hard for me , anyone can do it," Bittenbender said. Her first few days were spent sleeping, "I just couldn't stay awake, I tried so hard but I couldn't," she said. "I've wanted to be in the army sirce I was in the 8th grade. My mom and dad were both in the army and quit. I wanted to show them I could do it." Jastorff at first didn't really know why he was going. "I didn't know why I decided to do this at first, but when it was done, I knew I had done something right, I felt good," he said. These two plan on staying a part of the army. "I will stay a reserve for six years, but I do not plan on being active until later on," Bittenbender said . Jastorff has other plans. "I'm going on active duty for four years right after high school, I'm going to Virginia and could possibly be moved to Afghanistan. I want to use the money to go to college, get a business degree and then I want to live my life!" Can . you survive Boot Camp? Facing Page.

These aren't the normal sounds of a home, but to a soldier they are. Since the war in Iraq broke out, many soldiers have had a new place they call home. It could be Afghanistan , Iraq or even a boot camp here in the states. Everyone has been affected by the soldiers deployment; family, friends, and even coworkers. Junior Nick Gunzenhauser has a family member overseas. "My dad is in the National Guard and was deployed to Afghanistan. His main job over there is to make sure the people have what they need. This isn't his first time over there," he said. Fathers aren 't the only 8 Student life family members overseas, but also boyfriends and cousins. "My fiance (Mike Chanley) is overseas and also my friend (Mike Johnston) . It was shocking to hear he was being deployed. Not just someone that I loved was going away but also a friend," senior Megan Pender said . "It hurts knowing that everyday you wake up , you aren't going to see him." "My cousin is in the Marines and was deployed in February of this year. When I heard he was deployed, I was sad and proud at the same time," senior Cory Leslie said. "I was sad because I didn't want anything bad to happen to him and I was proud because someone in my family fighting for our country." Many people support the army in many different ways; give money, wear patriotic clothing, and even have the yellow ribbon stickers on their cars . Even though they support the army, it doesn't mean they would join. "I am the last Leslie in my family so I can't go over there and risk it," Leslie said. "Personally, I wouldn 't join the military just because of the things they say they will do or will help you with, never seems to work out for the better," Pender said. As the soldiers are overseas protecting the freedom of the people and are thousands of miles away, there will always be a place here that they can call home. ... 10,000 Miles Away ·- Facing page.

Family at War 9 Was there a noticeable change from this years homecoming week than in the past homecomings? Many students would say yes. There was no carnival, the football game was on a Thursday night, and there was a bonfire and powder puff football game on Sunday night to get the students in the mood for Homecoming Week. "I th ink there should be a carnival every other year that way the kids will want to come and they won't get bored with it," Deb Goodman said. This year the girls got to have a little game of their own. Athletic Director Cyle Forney decided it would be better to keep the game with different grades from the 1 0 Student Life same school. "I liked playing in the game, I think it made everyone get in the mood for the week, and we got to show the boys that girls can play football too," senior Abby Hunt said. Sometimes the girls had there own minds on things and they didn't want help from the boys. "I liked helping the girls out with the football game, but some of the girls had their own ideas on things and they didn't want to listen to us ," junior Jake Brown said. The school finally got to put the new bonfire pit to use. On Sunday night there was a bonfire to get everyone in the mood for the big week ahead of them, and to introduce the homecoming court. Homecoming week also had the traditional days like college day and twin day, and mix match day. Each student had his/her own favorite day. "I liked college day the best, because I got to wear a hat that day," senior Jon McMullen said. Overall, Homecoming week went well. It helped the student get ready for the big game on Thursday, and the only bad thing about having a game on a Thursday is everyone had to get up and go to school on Friday or they couldn't go to the dance on Saturday. "The only thing that I want to change for next year and that is to have the carnival back," Brown said. ... You wore what to school? Facing page.

Homecoming Week 11 If someone were to walk into the Homecoming dance, they probably would have asked themselves if it was Halloween instead of Homecoming. With the theme "Jukebox Jive," it allowed people to dress a little differently than any other Homecoming. "Jukebox Jive" was based on the fifties. A lot of people dressed according to the characters in the 1978 movie "Grease." Girls wore poodle skirts whi le guys wore tight jeans and t-shirts. "My friends and I dressed up like the T-Birds from 'Grease,' which was reall y cool," junior Marc Colvin said. Many people enjoyed being able to dress so informally. t 2 Student life Having the theme what it was, there were many different outfits to choose to wear. Homecoming King, Dane Christensen said, "I thought it was really funny how everyone dressed up in different 50 's clothes. It wasn't the best dance ever, but I still had a blast." Radio station 94.1 provided the DJ for the dance, but didn't play 50's music at all, which disappointed some people . Nevertheless, it was still very enjoyable. 'There could have been at least some 50's music, but it was still a blast,'' sophomore Cambria Brannan said. The turnout of S'tudents that attended the dance wasn't very high. Even with the people who did attend, not very many people danced. "I didn't like how barely anyone danced, but it was still fun," sophomore Kristi Dow said. For the most part, the homecoming dance was a hit. Everyone seemed to enjoy almost everything about it. "I liked the dance all around. It was a really fun theme and the outfits were totally groovy," junior Nicole Kramer said. Despite the fact that the music wasn't what people had expected , the outfits were great, the decorations were fabulous , and the excitement of the. whole night won't be easy to forget. ~ Dance the night away Facing page.

Homecoming Dance 1 3 Many different tasks are included in being a journalist. One must be able to look at things from any point of view and refrain from being biased. To start off the year the editors of the Hodgepodge/ Signal and the Monticello (yearbook) went to a conference at Midland Lutheran College called J-Day. The editors learned many things to help improve both publications. Then both staffs went to Sioux City for the Missouri River Conference Journalism Day that included sessions on writing style, photography, different career opportunities, and others. "J-D ay was a real eye opener. I walked away with tons 14 Student life of great ideas and information," senior Brandy Pierson said. Besides just writing stories, taking pictures and interviewing, the yearbook staff helped the school out. When the homecoming carnival was cancelled the staff stepped up and put their own on. Along with handing out yearbooks, there were games such as the bean bag toss, pie throwing, free throws and much more. "Businesses stepped up and helped us to put the carnival on. Without them, it would have been a struggle to have it," Pierson said. Altogether about $1,000 was raised to help out with the yearbook. The Hodgepodge/Signal staff had a busy year with a total of eight issues. The only thing people see is the final result of all the hard work of both staffs. Being on either one of the staffs isn't so easy afterall. There are constant deadlines for publications to get done. It is similar to having a job; when things don't get done, worknights are in order. Staying late after school to finish things is a routine for both staffs. Work got very frustrating and difficult at times , but sticking together and working as a team helped both the Hodgepodge/ Signal and the Monticello staff to complete the tasks they were meant to do. .....

Journalism 15 The Snoball theme "Winter Wonderland" only stood for the theme itself, it did not feel like winter at all, not one flake of snow. It was the nicest day of the winter season all year with the weather holding at 50 degrees and sunny. Snoball was held on December 11 , from 7:30 p.m. till 10:30 p.m. The theme "Winter Wonderland " was beautifully decorated thanks to Mark and Lori Neill and the help of Student Council. "I loved the decorations , they were pretty and looked like they took a long time to do," freshman Alyssa Rae said . Student Council was up at 8:00 a.m decorating for this ritual 16 Student Life held here every year. "I didn't like waking up at 8 a.m but decorating was fun and I really liked the turnout," freshman Liz Daniels said. The decorations were obviously a big part of the dance but what about the DJ? Most students were not very happy about the way the DJ presented his music. ''The DJ was a lot better at Homecoming, you couldn't really hear the music or when they announced court because the speaker system was all messed up," sophomore Phillip Lanegan said. Besides the dance , most couples enjoyed QOing out to eat with their friends and enjoying a time that only comes a few times each year. "We went to Perkins before the dance because we didn't make reservations, and the line was so long in Applebee's but my friends and I had a blast and probably had more fun there than we would of atApplebee's," junior Amanda Pierce said. Going out to eat before the dance and hanging out with friends afterwards is probably better than attending the dance all together. A lot of people were not very satisfied with the dance. All in all, the dance did not have a very good turnout, but students still enjoyed the dance and found some ways to make their nights worth while. +Better or worse than before? Facing page.

Many students decide to get tattoos in their younger years because they want to be wild and crazy. In high school students tend to rebel against their parents and get a tattoo even though their parents sa y no . But, many parents see no problem with their children having a tattoo. Some students get tattoos of their favorite bands, flowers , cartoon characters , etc. "My tattoo is a star because they're my favorite," sophomore Curtis 1 8 Student Life Moreno said. Sophomore Rikki Wright has Tinkerbell on her shoulder blade. Depending on the size of the tattoo, or how difficult it was to draw, the prices vary. "My soccer ball on my lower back cost $100," sophomore Rebbecca Scislowicz said. Sometimes by knowing a lot of people you can get a bargain. "I didn't have to pay a dime, it was free," sophomore Jessica Ziegler said. As many people know tattoos aren't the easiest thing to get. Some students agree that tattoos are painful, yet many others disagree. It just depends on that person pain tolerance. Senior Emili Bockert said, "My tattoo hurt!" Along with many others, sophomore Jessica Ziegler adds that her tattoo was far from painful. Some people have several tattoos. Senior Justin Peck has four tattoos on both of his arms, his calf, and also on his shoulder blade. In this new era it is a trend to have many tattoos on young teens bodies. Year by year trends in the world change and different styles fade away, but getting a tattoo will permanently stay with students. Think about the future, will business' want employees with tattoos or will these tattoos influence the next generation of kids? No Turning Back! Facing page.

Tattoos 19 Tradition is no more. For the first time since the TWIRP dance was started in 1963, the dance was cancelled. Due to a lack of ticket sales, the school had no other choice but to call the dance off. The estimated total amount of tickets sold was between 40- 50 out of approximately 1, 180 students. "It's a shame that a tradition got cancelled, but females are cheap. The meaning of TWIRP is 'the woman is required to pay' and the girls didn't buy tickets," senior Nick Barth said. There were many rumors as to why the dance was cancelled. Some said it was the cheerleaders' fault, because they were organizing the dance. Others said it isn't a big dance 20 Student Life like the others, so no one really cares to go. "I never went to TWIRP because I heard from people that it is the worst dance of the year," sophomore Desiree Johnson said. Whatever the reason was, the cancellation of the dance didn 't bother most students. TWIRP court was never announced, because over half of the students on court had some type of fine, and wouldn't have been able to purchase a ticket without paying their fine first. Many students did complain about not liking the Hawaiian theme. It was either 'too boring' or 'already has been a theme for a dance.' "I didn't care if the dance was cancelled, because I didn't like the theme," sophomore Andrew Boutin said. Many other school activities were going on the same day of the dance . Some had Show Choir concerts, others had the state bowling tournament and this affected the students ability to go. "I really wasn't planning on going, because I had state bowling that day, so it didn 't bother me that it was cancelled," junior Katie Beaver said . TWIRP might never ex ist again , but in the end , nobody complained too much about the dance being cancelled. It ended up saving the school a lot of time and money and no one can complain about that! ..... so long TWIRP Facing page.

CD :::J .-+ TWIRP 21 Before all of the new, fancier buildings were added to Council Bluffs and Omaha , teenagers were undecided on what to do during the weekends. Now teens have options to fill up their days. The communities gained the Star Cinema, Qwest Center and the Mid America Center. Some students believe that having more things to do on the weekends cou ld keep teenagers out of trouble. The Star Cinema was a hit right away, more up to date, newer movie selections and a cleaner facility. "The Star Cinema keeps people happy with all of the selections and it gives my 22 Student life friends and I somewhere to hangout," sophomore Norma Castillo said. Last year Council Bluffs was talking about getting a water park. Many students say that it would be great to get the park because they wouldn't have to go far for vacation, but others say that the park would be pointless because there is one so close to them in Kansas City. "I think they should build the park but after a while it will get boring," junior Jake Brown said. Now that the Mid America Center has been built it gives people the cbance to experience in tense hockey games and jamming concerts . "The Mid-America Center provides us with more excitement and something to actually look forward to during the week ," Castillo said. The Qwest Center was just another masterpiece after it was built. "The Qwest Center has brought many good things to Omaha and gives teens a chance to experience what the big cities are like, since we live in such a little town," junior Jalayna Franks said. These attractions made the communities more entertaining and gave people more options. These new places have made teens able to be more open - minded when it comes to something different. ~ New Teen Hangouts .... Facing page.

There are obvious preparations that must be made to make prom the most memorable night for all of those who attend. Prom was held May 7, 2005 at the Mid America Center from 8-11 p.m. "A Midsummer Nights Dream" was the theme and the colors were teal , black, and silver. Like every other year the juniors had lots of preparations to do for the dance. "We started planning about a month before prom, we had to get the decorations and of course pick out a theme," junior class Vice President Sean Johnson said. At the dance there was a 24 Student life chocolate fountain that students could dip foods into. This was a neat idea for the students, since there hasn't been one in the past. Candles were given to the girls and mints were given to the guys. The music the DJ played was controversial. Some thought he was good , others thought there could have been better music to dance to. "I thought the DJ played a good mix of music. He didn't just play rap the whole night, there was country too. It made my night when he played 'Holla Back Girl,"' junior Ashtyn Neill said. Announcing court was a very exhausting moment because of the wait for those who made court. Those who were on court were very excited to see who won.The prom royalty was announced at 10 p.m. , and the king was Derek Townsend and the queen was Jo Ann Carlson . The prince and princess were Martin Rounds and Alyssa Hedrick. "I think I'm the first queen to wear jeans and tennis shoes. I also think I'm the first with a 2nd degree black belt," Carlson said." Throughout the years Mike and Nancy Hale, and Deb Goodman have helped out the junior officers with organizing prom. This was their last year sponsoring the dance and they did a great job of making the 2004- 2005 prom a night to remember. ~A memory that lasts forever Facing page.

"I thought the hypnotist was better than the mind reader last year, but I liked bowling better because you didn't just have to si t around if you don 't like anything going on ," sophomore Jamie Walling said. There were many different activities to do like the hypnotist making senior Nick Barth go into labor and stu dents racing through and shooting hoops on the inflatables. The post prom committee tried the ir hardest to make "Midnight at the Oasis" a fun time. 26 Student life 'The hypnotist was the best. It was so funny seeing people that usually wouldn 't be so outgoing blowing on their own feet because they thought it was that hot. I had a lot of fun that night," sophomore Rikki Wright said. There has always been free food and drinks at post prom, but it was the first time that there was casino games available to play. Students got tickets when they came in the door to use to bet on the games that they played. Then they could use the tickets they won to put into a drawing for prizes. "A while back when the casinos were new it was considered wrong for students to play any kind of casino games. Now that it has calmed down we decided it was a good and fun idea to have popular casino games at post prom," Athletic Director Cyle Forney said . Blackjack, craps and roulette were some of the games available. Another fun activity was the limbo competition. A large line of students started the limbo, but by the end , senior Amy Stevens went the lowest without falling and won the game. "I loved how I beat most of the girls in limbo beings that I'm a lot taller than they are. I can 't believe I came in third. I was only trying to beat out Matt Boucher, just if I were a bit more flexible like Amy I could have won," senior Brandon Evans said. Post Prom offers many choices Facing page.

Post Prom 27 When Senior Honor Day comes around, it finally kicks in to every senior that their high school career is almost over. Dreaded by most underclassmen, Honor Day, to some, is the one day in their senior year they've been waiting for. "I worked four years for a two hou r assembly and it was definitely worth it. Now that all the pressure is off, I can look back and say it's all over," valedictorian John Crummer said. The purpose of Senior Honor Day is to recognize all the hard work and accompl ishments made by seniors through scholarships and awards. One of the bigger awards 28 Student life was a $20,000 scholarship from the Iowa West Foundation given to both Crummer and Justin Hannon. "Basically I wouldn't be able to go to school if it wasn't for getting the scholarships. All the hard work was worth it," Hannon said. Many seniors that received awards had no idea they were getting the award until their name was called. "I didn't know that I was getting the Admiral Ron Narmi Award for $2,000, and it was a huge shock to my family," Dane Christensen said. Without all the support from the community and organizations Honor Day wouldn't be possible. "I was extremely appreciative of all the people who acknowledged all our hard work," Christy Childers said. Many students may not be able to pursue their college dreams without the scholarships they received . "It was nice getting as many scholarships as I did, because now I don't have to worry about paying for college," Ellie Oswald said. One important part of Honor Day was having all the parents in attendance. "I love the look on the parent's faces when their child receives an award, because it will defray the cost for college," School-to-Career Coordinator Deb Goodman said. ...,..

Honor Day 29 It can happen to anyone at any time, a fire in their house, and unfortunately it happened to senior Jason Cooney. The fire was caused when the family's water cooler caught fire in the kitchen. It caught fire late Sunday, January 23. Nobody was injured in the accident, but the family lost most of their valuable items that can never be replaced, such as pictures and heirlooms, but they will always have the memories they shared in the house, those can not ever be destroyed. "One of the hardest parts for me was going back the next day to get whatever wasn't ruined ," Cooney said. It was very sad what 30 Student Life happened to the Cooney's, but the school came together to help their fellow classmate. The girls basketball team was nice enough to put something together to raise money for him. When the boys and girls varsity had a doubleheader against Omaha Northwest, they had a Hawaiian night, they had a raffle and sold leis, the people who were picked from the raffle participated in a hula-hoop contest during halftime of the boys game. Cooney is an only child with his parents Ron and Kris. The family had a fire shower at The Eagles Club, but Jason was not there because he had to work. There was a very good turnout, a lot of friends and family of the Cooney's showed up with gifts to show their support for the family. A lot of organizations contributed to the cause such as ASTRA, girls basketball, NHS, DECA, and the Iowa West Foundation. Jason and his family are very thankful to all of the people that did something to help him and his family get through the tough times. It is unfortunate what happened to them, but thanks to many giving people in the community him and his family will get through the hard times and get on with their lives. "It was really nice to see how many people really cared," Cooney said. Community helps Cooney's Facing page. Senior Jason Cooney's house after the fire.

It's finishing 13 years of schooling to receive a piece of paper and a hand shake. But it's more than just that. It's a moment for memories, friendship, the end of homework, and the start of college. Graduating is the end of one chapter of life and the beginning of many, more. Time and time again students said how they couldn't wait to leave high school . However, with in a two hour period many seniors were crying because they didn't want to leave the friendships and teachers behind. Now the seniors take what they have learned throughout school and apply it to the world 32 Student life around them. These seniors now get their opportunity to make an impact on people just as their teachers and friends have done for them. The 81 st class graduated at 7:00 PM on Sunday, May 22, 2005. The commencement was held at the Mid-America Center for the third year. The co-valedictorians were John Crummer and Elizabeth Oswald. Salutatorian was Shelly Rutz and the moderator was Christina Childers. The symposium speaker was Brandy Pierson . "It was great to congratulate everyone I have grown up with," Pierson said. The class flower was the tiger lily, the class song was "Dare You to Move" by Switchfoot, and the class motto was "Dream what you dare to dream, go where you want to go, be who you want to be- Live." Although this senior class was considered the 'guinea pigs' with all the higher requirements for validations, focus, credits and so on; most seniors would agree that it was well worth the wait, time and effort. From September 11 freshman year to sophomore mock interviews, to getting your first car, to your senior term paper, graduation finally came! It was a long bumpy road, but a road that paid off in the end . Congratulations seniors! ~A New Beginning Facing page.

AthletA' I nlPressions By Brandy Pierson How can high school be high school without sports? Impressions are made at every sporting event. These lasting impressions might be the winning touchdown at the last home game or the first homerun at a softball game. These impressions will always stick with us. Not only the extraordinary events that happen at games or meets leave memories but also the coaches. The coaches teach us not only to be better athletes, but better people. They push us to our limits, make us show our weaknesses so we can defeat them, and strive for excellence. Their motivation will stay with us throughout our lives and we will hold their advice dear throughout our days. Coaches push you to make you better, but your teammates do too. They cheer you on and help you improve. Your teammates become your friends, then that friendship grows and becomes a strong bond. Sports bring so many people together, even if they are complete opposites, they become friends. On the court, field, or mat, these teammates will always encourage you. Some people may say sports are overrated but they do actually serve a good purpose. They help students improve their ability to handle stress and all the twists and turns life may throw at them.

Summer Improvement by Cory Green Although somewhat the year was disappointing the team showed improvment. The softball team had a somewhat disappointing year as they went 12-17 and weren't able to compete in their conference. "The year didn't go as well as we hoped. We lost a lot of close games and we didn't have a lot of momentum at the beginning of the year," coach Kelly Duffek said. The team lost three, two-run games and five, one-run games. They had a lot of close games but they just couldn't pull them out at the end. The close losses were quite a disappointment, but the team learned from each one. They figured out that they needed to play a full seven innings and play them well. Although they didn't win many games, there were good things from the pitching department. Junior Ashtyn Neill was a huge part of the team, pitching her first year of varsity very well, with an ERA of 2.32. Neill also improvemed at the plate. With her hard work in the off season, she improved so much and helped the team in many ways. "I improved from never pitching a varsity game to pitching a majority of them," Neill said. "My hitting improved also." Graduate Sarah Walck will be a big loss to the team. Along with all of Walck's achievments, she was also named the Council Bluffs Softball Player of the Year. Walck hit an amazing .461 with six home runs, breaking the school record. Graduate Sarah Martin added to the team by hitting the first home run of her career. The other graduates showed a lot of leadership and contributed a strong drive. Without the graduates, the team will be looking for underclassmen to fill the empty positions. Next season there will be a lot to look forward to in filling up these open spots. "Walck has definitely been a main contributor to softball the past five years and the team is going to miss her leadership. How we do without her or the other seniors will be determined on how hard we work in the off season. I will be looking for some girls to take on more responsibility," Duffek said. Junior Jessica Kannedy is willing to take the challenge of becoming the next catcher. "I am going to work hard in the off season so I can help the team out," Kannedy said. All of the juniors are going to have to step up to fill the shoes of the seniors. The team does have some positives, they had quite a few girls make all city. They included Neill, Walck, junior Valerie Robinson, junior Alisha Kuhl , and Martin. They aslo had a very solid middle infield with Robinson at shortstop and Kuhl at second base. The team lost a lot of good players and leadership. It will be hard to replace them but it is possible. Robinson and Neill are both good leaders. They know when to step it up. Not only are they good leaders because of what they say, but they also lead by their actions. Far Left. Junior Ashtyn Neill delivers the ball to home plate . Ph oto by Brand y Pierson. Left.

Educational ea son by Matt Cliif!J:l{; The baseball team had a rough season adjusting to the loss of a number of talented graduates. The baseball team had a disappointing season, as they were only able to get three wins in their first 10 games, and only able to snag five the whole season. They had a great season opener blowing away Shenendoah 8-2, with an easy walk away win. Graduate Shane Hollenbach led the Jackets on the mound. Another graduate, Brian James, and juniors Kai and Kyle Bartholomew were just a few of the "big hitters" that led the team. The upside to the season was beating Harlan every time they played them. "Losing 22 games was a definite heart breaker for the team," senior Derek Kessler said. "We had a nine game losing streak before picking up another victory against Harlan." The team had a few other great games including the game against Denison winning 2-1 in a hard fought game going all the way to the ninth inning. They had a complete blowout of the Atlantic baseball team 13-4. They also had three games with crosstown rival A.L. The first of their th'ree games was a close call but resulted in a 5-4 loss, going all the way to the ninth inning. The other two games were not as close coming out with T.J. on the losing end 7-2 and 5-2. Losing some of the key players from the last years team was a hard thing to try and overcome. Graduates Aaron McFarland , Dustin Griffith, Scott Mcintosh , Levi Kannedy, Kyle Webster, Matt Naylor, and Nick Heider were some of the big players from the previous year. Many of the players went to other places to hone their skills. Some went to the Strike Zone in Omaha. Others played on fall leagues, on COBRA, or different associations. " Character was a very good theme for the baseball team," head coach Todd Barnett said. Barnett emphasized that the important thing over the season was that the players had fun and pulled together as a team when they needed the strength to keep going through the hard times. Though it will be the last year for head coach Barnett, the team looks forward to improving next year. Former Tri-Center coach will be the new coach in the 2005 season. ''This year's team was a very close team. No one was excluded from any activities and the seniors also made sure that everyone had a good time," Barnett said . "They had fun and became better friends and that's all that counts." At the end of the season, the players felt that they had a good season of play, but felt as if they really didn't try as hard as they could have. Finishing the season with a losing record is never fun , but is a learning experience on what not to do," added Barnett. Far left.

By Matt Clark The team started off to a rocky start going 0-5 to start off the season, but did have a glimmer of hope at the end of the season. The football team got off to a very rough start, being beaten 42-0 in their first game with Urbandale and their second game with Ottumwa, 62-0. The team had a tough time finding those first points yet were able to muster up some courage and take some chances to score in the third game. Though making their first score in the third game of the season, the game still ended in a loss, Des Moines Roosevelt 42-28. "One of the reasons I think we didn't do as well as we could was that, some of the kids were intimidated to start on varsity, those Friday night lights can get very bright," head coach Dan Strutzenberg said . "After the first two losses, the players had learned what it takes to score, and you could tell what that we got better every game," Strutzenberg said . The team had more penalties than normal this year. But, so did the teams . they played so it balanced out. Also, they will be losing some very key players this year. Next year almost all spots are up for grabs. " We run a very wide and open offense," Strutzenberg said. "One of the big concerns this year was the offensive and defensive lines. Arguably losing the best lines we've ever had last year, it was hard to replace them but we did it," senior Joe Anderson said. Anderson said , "I think we played more as a team this year than any other, and that's why we progressived and got better, also next year, they are going to have a tough time replacing all the seniors leaving after this year." After a five game losing streak the Jackets went on a winning spree rolling over Sioux City North, East and West. Combining the score they outscored their opponents 108-80. At the end of the year the stats didn't look too hot for the team. The team rushed for only 1,915 yards and 20 touchdowns, and passed for only 685 yards, and only six touchdowns. The usual leading rusher over the last four years is Senior James Smith, but actually, the leading rusher this year was Senior Derek Townsend. Though Smith was out one game, he had more attempts but, Townsend ended the season with 966 yards rushing and Smith ended with 836. The equalizer? Smith rushed for 12 td's and Townsend with eight. Senior Mike Neville led the receiving with 16 completions worth 371 yards. That averages out to about 23.19 yards per catch, and three for touchdowns . Far left.

Starting ver ' ' By Missy Boo.ton · .. • 1 Having lost many talented seniors, the girls would have to prove that a young team, could still make a good team. Bump, set, spike! The volleyball team had a tough year, but with everyone pulling their weight they ended with a better season than years past, going 14-23. With a younger team than usual, the girls had a lot of work to do to show that they could replace some very talented seniors from the previous year. Another challenge the team would have to overcome was adjusting to a new coach. This also meant new expectations and standards . Being their fourth new coach in four years, Holly Demarque had her work cut out for her. Having lost many seniors, and such a young team to work with, this season would be a challenge. Though it would be a hard season, coach Demarque kept a relaxed and casual attitude with the team. "I thought the season was really fun this year. Holly joked around with us like she was one of us," junior Jenny Shadden said. To start out the season coach Demarque had the girls focus more on setting and serving than anything else. To get the players in shape, they would have to run , and play intra-squad scrimmages. Yet serving and setting would not be the only thing the girls would have to work on. In the beginning, the girls had a tough time with team unity. Coach Demarque tried to improve this by gathering the players together at the end of practices for a small pep-talk and breakdown. Coach Demarque told the girls many times that they were one team, not six girls. Demarque's expectations were like any other coaches or sponsors. She expected the players to always work their hardest, come prepared for practice and to be willing to try new things. At first the girls were a little apprehensive about having a new coach and getting used to new standards. But the players soon adjusted to coach Demarque's style of coaching and improved their team work. The team did great in serving and setting the ball. However, their serve reception and defense were a couple of their weaknesses. But according to coach Demarque, as the season went on, the players improved their defense. "This year's best game was Sioux City West," Demarque said. The team was down 0-2 · and came back to win in five . With such a young team , the girls did a lot better than anticipated. For their last game the players dressed in the colors of the opposing team the day before. This was a strategy to keep the players focused on their upcoming game with Abraham Lincoln, the school's long time rival. All in all the season was a good one. According to coach Demarque, throughout the season, the team improved and accomplished their goals. "All of the girls contributed," coach Demarque said. Left.

Running miles upon miles, all summer long, sounds fun doesn't it? Not unless you're on the cross country team. The team trained hard all summer running through neighborhoods, down streets, and on the track. Junior Brittany May said, "We trained all summer by either running sometimes by ourselves or in groups." Running wasn't the only training the team endured but also weight training. Some of the girls lifted all summer to stay in shape and strong to handle the long distance. "Besides running , I lifted and worked out all summer," junior Katie Mann said. The team's hard work paid off because they had the best times ever since coach Doug Muehlig became head coach. "In my 20 years of coaching, this has been the best team ever. We had a large turnout of girls and we set school records," Muehlig said. Junior Alyssa Hedrick was the leader setting a new school record of ranking 14th place at the Missouri River Conference. "Alyssa is a great runner. She's up there in my list of best runners I've ever coached," Muehlig said . A highlight for the team was ranking third out of 16 at the Southern Cal Meet. "It was a pleasant surprise for us to place third . We had to reschedule our meet due to Homecoming being on a Thursday," Muehlig said. Another highlight of the season was the turnout of girls. Many volleyball players switched to either try something different or join their friends in the fun. "We had a few girls come from different sports. (Sophomore) Kiersten Ruff switched from volleyball to cross country and after a few meets, she was moved to varsity. She contributed a lot to the team," Muehlig said. Other runners that contributed to the team were sophomore Charis Oswald, juniors Jenny Neu, Sarah King, Mann, May, and senior Lindsie Beranek. Muehlig wasn't only proud of the team for their hard work, improvements, and dedication but also their GPA as a team. "We had the highest team GPA since I started coaching. The team had a GPA of 3.65 and that is impressive. They won an award from state because of it," Muehlig said. As the girls pulled together as a team and ran to their fullest potential, they improved more and became a better team. "The past two years have been the best teams ever. They are all great," Muehlig said. Far Left. Junior Jenny Neu pushes herself to overcome her tiredness and pain . Photo by Matt Clark. Left.

Photo by Mike Hale. Oh So ose by Cory ·Green Throughout the hardships the team has faced, they still and always will believe they can win. "No one ever says running looks fun." This was motto for the season and the team continued to follow it. Running is one of the biggest challenges to do when one has nothing left, but when one finishes the rate, it can be a great feeling, or it could be the worst feeling of their life. That is, if one ran their guts out. "The best feeling as a coach is when you know someone ran their guts out," coach Doug Muehlig said. Junior Chris Tamayo had an excellent year. He was only eight spots away from making it to the state meet at Fort Dodge. He also tied a few records, including the record for the most Top 20 finishes and Top 25 finishes. He was also one of the great leaders of the team. "This year was a lot of fun . I ended up being a big help to the team and I liked being ranked seventh in Southwest Iowa," Tamayo said. The team will only be losing one senior, Matt Nurton. He was one of the most influential leaders the team had. 'Believe' is the word from coach Muehlig. He likes his team to work hard , and if one does believe, he will let them know with tears, hugs, and head-butts. Muehlig was not the only one that kept the team in line, the team also had two very good assistant coaches that spent their spare time helping the team. The two coaches that assisted the team were Physical Education teacher John Kinsel and Math teacher Pat Nepple. Coach Nepple is looked up to by many of the runners on the team along with coach Kinsel. Kinsel will be retiring after 31 years of teaching and coaching. He devoted a lot of his time to going to meets and practices. He thought of quotes for the team to go by like "get 'er done," and "hell bent for leather." After decades of being an excellent coach and teacher, he will be moving on to a great future. "I've reached the requirements to retire, I figure that I will be 55 in March and I'll have 10 good years to continue on with my lawn service in the fall, and next winter I will get some kind of job," Kinsel said. . The conference meet at Westfair was the best meet for the team. The team ranked second out of six teams, and they had two boys make all-conference, Tamayo who placed fifth , and freshman Joe Rodriguez placed eighth. Junior Ole Olsen worked hard as he ran to place twelfth place. The team will be running in the summer to prepare for the next season. The team has come a long way in their journey to stardom. Next year will be a year to look forward to for the returning runners and new runners to fill the empty voids. Left. Junior Chris Tamayo leads the pack at the Lewis Cental Invitational. Right.

For some it is always about winning, but for the girls basketball team it was about more than that. Yeah, just like every other team winning is always good, but for these girls it was about improving. Throughout the season the girls looked to improve and learn one anothers strengths and weaknesses. In November the team traveled to camp Okoboji, where they learned how important team unity and closeness are. At Okoboji they met several challenges, not only as team but also as individuals. There were many team challenges where the whole team had to cooperate or the whole thing was ruined . If one person was off the whole team ~s~ . "The season was a lot of fun because everyone was so close and we didn't have the drama that most girls have when they spend a lot of time together," junior Marjory Christensen said. The unity is really what kept them going. At the beginning of the season junior Allysa Hedrick went out with a broken hand, and half way through the season senior Jenny Pettit broke her foot and was not be able to participate the rest of the season . Losing those two players knocked the varsity squad to only eight players. After that, the other girls really came together. They had to adjust to the changes and not let the frustration show. The team started the season off with a win but struggled from there. Their schedule was really difficult, however the girls stepped up to the challenge. At one point in the season they lost three close games to very good teams, including a loss in overtime at Sioux City Heelan. At the start of the season they had a hard time putting together a full 32-minute game. They always came out flat in the first half and dug themselves a whole. As the season progressed they started being able to pull out a whole game. When the team came out fired up, they really showed the opponents what they were capable of. The record was not the best, but no one could challenge how much heart the girls had. Not many teams could dig themselves out of a 20 point deficit, but this was a team that could. There wasn't a fairy tale ending in the eyes of most people. However, in the eyes of the girls it was pretty close to being one. Playing there best game in second round of districts versus Lewis Central really made them proud. They stayed with them, and they believed they could play. Belief was the key word throughout the entire season. "I have high expectations for the returning players," said coach Nicole Vetter. Adding to that, junior Sarah King said that she thinks all of the hard work and dedication is going to show next year. Left.

Photo by Sa rah Fredrickson. ne Ste a by Cory Green The team had big goals for making it to state but was one win away. Despite their loss the team still had a very good year. The team had a great year setting a school record for most wins in a season going 15-8. They had a very talented group of juniors and seniors which helped them to their great record . The team also earned a first round bye in substate. It wasn't all talent that won their games, they practiced hard for hours at a time everyday to improve their basketball skills. The team also did something that no team in the schools history did, they were once ranked 12th in Southwestern Iowa. The fans were very supportive all season. After the team beat Sioux City West in the first round of substate they traveled up to Sioux City to play Sioux City East. The fans were offered a free ride up to Sioux City and the fans were so supportive that they filled up two buses. The students tried their hardest to pump up the players but the team fell one win short of making it to Des Moines for the state tournament, losing to East 80-51 . The team will be returning three junior starters. The two key senior starters that they will be losing are Derek Townsend and James Smith, who were the leaders on and off the court. During practice their work ethic was outstanding, during practice they wouldn't be easy on their friends, they would challenge their teammates to try and make them better. Townsend was a special player, he was the team's emotional leader. He made first team All City, All Conference, All Southwest Iowa for the World Herald, and was also the Nonpareil City Player of the Year. "It feels good, all my hard work during games and practices paid off. I'm proud of my four years," Townsend said. The three junior starters that will be returning are Tom Cannon, Sean Johnson and Ole Olsen. They contributed during the season and they were also leaders on the court. The great thing about the team this year was that no matter what, they always showed up ready to play. The team worked very hard in practice to have a very defensive minded team, and it definitely showed during games when their opponents didn't put up a very high number of points. Their best win was probably against Sioux City Heelan on senior night when they beat them at T.J . by 13. The crowd was really into that game which got the players pumped up and led them to victory. The team had key wins against Lewis Central, Abraham Lincoln and St. Albert which earned them the city title. "Thanks to the student section for all of their support this year. I always liked the home games when we had our band," Townsend said. Left. Senior Troy Taylor tries to get junior Sean Johnson fired up during starting lineups . Photo by Sarah Fredrickson. Below.

Growing up, children always dream of being a champion of some kind . Three T.J. wrestlers had the chance to make that dream come true. Unfortunately that dream fell short in the first rounds for all three wrestlers. Junior Darren Billam and sophomore Hunter Carruthers got beat in their first match. Junior Levi Gates made it to the third match but fell short in the end getting beat in the second round. "I was very nervous going into my first match, but after that I got a better feeling of what it was like and all my nerves were gone," Gates said. With all three wrestlers being underclassmen, they still have another chance of going back to state. As for seniors Dane Christensen and Jake McGlade it was their last chance for state. Though they did not make it to state they lead the team throughout the season. "Jake and Dane were good leaders throughout the season they were great role models for the younger guys, I was proud of them and they will be missed on the team," coach Todd McGinnis said. Wrestling is a sport that takes mental and physical strength. Wrestlers not only have to have the strength to wrestle but also be smart about what they eat and how much they eat, so they don't make themselves weak by eating the wrong foods. Some wrestlers starve themselves and make themselves too weak to even ::::-:::.::......t1~ wrestle in the meet. .. • • "Some people think that if you just don't eat then you won't gain weight, but I think that is the worst thing to do, you just make it harder on yourself," junior Martin Rounds said. On some days people would see wrestlers walking around in heavy clothing because they needed to drop a pound or two for the meet that night. Most wrestlers would do anything to drop pounds because they didn't want to let their team down. "I remember days when I walked around school spiting in a cup so I could make weight," Gates said. Unlike some teams T.J. didn't have enough wrestlers out to fill up all the weight classes. "I think we did a good job considering that most of the other teams we wrestled had five or more guys than we did," McGinnis said. With most of the team returning next year they look to send more guys to state next year. "Hopefully we can get a few more kids up next year.

Saying 00 The retirement of coach John Kinsel doesn't only affect his students but also the athletes who participate in lronman. How many sports are there that form around the participant's own pace and strength? Not many, but Iron man is just that sport. Iron man is a great sport for any athlete, who may compete in any other sport. Anyone can join and no one is better than anyone else because most of the competition is against yourself. "I have been in lronman for four years and I like lifting. This is a leisure activity. You can go when you want to and do what you want. You work and improve on your own," senior Bryce Harris said. Senior Joe Anderson said, "I agree with Bryce, you build yourself up on your own but there is a lot of help from your friends ." One downside to lronman is the students who drop it. "We started this year with 30 and within a week many dropped it. I think I might have 20 or so still active," Physical Education teacher, and lronman coach John Kinsel said. Harris said people should think before they do something because it's stupid ' to start something and not finish it. Anderson said, "It's an easy sport and it doesn't take up a lot of time just dedication. We already had seven empty spots from the seniors last year leaving and we don't need more empty spots." Another downside to lronman was losing a great coach . Mr. Kinsel retired at the end of the year and this will have a great impact on lronman. "I feel sorry (for the students) next year because they won't have a great coach ," Harris said. Anderson said, "It's going to be bad because they are going to lose a great coach. lronman just wont be the same without Kinsel." Mr. Kinsel said, "I'm sad because when you've been some place for 32 years, you get attached to the people and you will miss them." So if there is no Mr. Kinsel to coach lronman, who will replace him? Rumor has it that Assistant Football coach Tom Watts will step up and take Kinsel's place. "I had Watts for football for three years and he's an okay guy. I just can't picture him or anyone else taking Kinsel's spot. When you think about lronman, you picture Kinsel," Anderson said. An upside to Iron man was the meets. Senior Jeff Schanuth broke a school record in dead lift. "We were all really excited and proud of Jeff when he broke the record . It was my first meet of the year and there were a lot of kids from different schools breaking their school records too," Anderson said . It doesn't matter if one is an athlete or not, lifting teaches one strength , physically and mentally. Far Left. Senior Joe Anderson does his firs t squat while senior Bryce Harris spots him.

Getting oser by Jill Kammrad Starting over and over again is hard, but the cheerleaders succeeded and became even better than before. Change: to undergo transformation or substitution . That is what th e cheerleading squad went through. Starting off the year on the wrong foot with the old cheerleading coach, Stacy Hill, led the Jacket cheer squad to their second year of a new sponsor. Many of the cheerleaders were a lot more happy with a more dedicated, organized coach, Nikki Mcintosh. "When we had Stacy it was bad and unorganized, but now that we have Nikki, it's organized and a lot more fun!" freshman Chelsey Stotts said . Throughout the transformation of a new coach, the cheer team gradually came together. The cheerleaders were not use to having someone there to guide them, and give them boundaries, but somehow Mcintosh pulled a great team out of the little time she had. "I think it was a smooth transition for all of us. It wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be, coming in 1/2 way through the year. The cheerleaders responded very nicely to a new sponsor and have proven to be hard workers and dedicated to making cheerleading a fun and rewarding experience," she said. Overall the girls were a lot happier with the way things turned out. The team itself improved and came together. After they accomplished that, they tried and succeeded in making themselves better cheerleaders, along with improving their ideas in promoting school spirit. "I think things are a lot better in the ways we cheer and do things at games to get the crowd involved," senior Amy Stevens said. The cheerleaders came up with ideas like buying candy, t-shirts, and colored bottles to throw in the crowd. More cheers to have the crowd yell back with was also another thing the girls worked on. The cheerleaders teamed up with the girls basketball team to put on a Hawaiian night at one of the girls and boys basketball games, including raffles, prizes, and also a hula hoop contest which was a great turnout. The fundraising that night was to help raise money for Jason Cooney's family, who lost their home in a fire. Cheerleading is a lot more than stunting and showing off their uniform , and the girls experienced the fun and hard work of what being a "real" cheerleader was. Although the girls are very good at stunting and improving their ability each day to do so, the girls have slowly faded out of stunting so much and working more on the enthusiasm of the crowd. The cheer team found the real meaning of being cheerleaders and came together better than anyone ever expected, and they say they owe it all to Nikki. Left.

' b Andrea Gnadet:· . .,~·- ._· The dance team had a pretty rough year, but after all was said and done, they proved that they were a good dance squad. It was a year of tough love, fun times, attitudes, meeting new teammates and hard work for the dance team. The year started out good for the team. They went to camp at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln during the summer. When they performed their dance at camp they were awarded with a bid to go to nationals. "Camp was really fun , we had a little trouble, but we all figured it out. I was excited when we got ready to perform our dance that we worked so hard on ," freshman Frankie Hughes said. When the school year started the dance team, like always, performed at football and basketball games with attitude and energy. " At first, before I go out and perform I'm scared but once I start to dance all of my fears just go away," sophomore Rikki Wright said. The dance team also had a tough year between learning new and harder dances, new teammates that have to be taught everything, and having all of the members of the dance squad act as a unified team. "Last year was a lot better, this year we fought a lot more and it gets in the way of our dancing and becoming a team," sophomore Michaela Hotz said. The year was a little easier and less stressful for most of the dance team because they already knew their sponsor, Lisa Fidone. They knew what she expected and tried hard to get it done. "Lisa and I have became so close these past two years. She's a great sponsor and I couldn't ask for more from her," junior Missy Booton said. A lot of the dance team members have said they enjoy the look on Fidone's face when they know they have nailed the routine and all their hard work has paid off. "I am proud of the girls all of the time. Sometimes they do things that upset me, but I know I can count on most of them in the end. I have bonded a lot with the upperclassmen and those girls are the reason that I love sponsoring so much," Fidone said. The dance team had their ups and downs, but through it all they still came together to do what they do best as squad ... dance. The dance team performed more hip hop and free dances than years past. "The girls have a different style than I do with music and moves. They were a big help this year when we needed stuff choreographed," Fidone said . After all the drama and attitude the dance team had a pretty successful year . Left. Junior Missy Booton and sophomores Michaela Hotz and Alyssia Waugh practice their routine. Submitted photo.

Levels of uccess by Jill Kammrad Swim team takes time to teach three new swimmers, while bowling squads relish in success of making it to state again. Backstroke: This is where the swim team started off with three new swimmers, all three had never swam before, at least on a team, which led coach Mike Hale to focus on the fundamentals. "I was practically teaching swim lessons the first few weeks," Hale said . Junior foreign exchange student Firnas Boutrous, and sophomores Sean Sahl and Matt Coziahr made up the team which joined Al 's nine member team. Three was about the average number of swimmers T J has had in the past. "I really wish more people would come out for the team, it is such a good experience and you meet plenty of new people," Sahl said. T J and AL have be en combining teams for about 10 years and even though rivals unite as one they put out a good team. "At first I thought the AL swimmers were going to be mean , but they ended up being pretty nice and I made many new friend s," Boutrous said. The T J swimmers started out new but progressed quickly and improved times more and more each time they swam. Although there were no state qualifiers, the team got an academic award with the cumulative GPA of 3 .5. It is a great achievement and well earned by the boys. Overall, the swim team is new and fresh each yea r. It is an opportunity to try new things, get involved and make new friends during the fall and winter seasons . Being part of a team is coming together to make things happen, and that is exactly what the boys and girls bowling team did. Both started out slow, but it just took some time before the teams got roll ing. "At first everybody was rusty, but we progressed more and more each practice and we ended up doing very well ," junior Brian Snodgrass said . The teams both made it to state, which is a great achievement. The girls ended up 6th in state and the boys finished 14th. "I enjoy bowling and especially this year when we went to state, [twas a great experience," senior Raeshell Pauly said. Although the boys did not end up where they would have liked they performed well and are reaching for more next season . 'This year we were a good team, but we will be even better next year. There are a few seniors leaving but we will have young ones to fill their shoes", sophomore Shawn St. John said. Both boys and girls did well this year and enjoyed the experience tremendously, and are ready for more next season. Far Left.

Medals and honors were earned by many members of the team. Running, throwing, hurdling, jumping, and being the best out on the field. The girls track team had a great year. With Drake Relays champion sophomore Tiffanie Synacek and other quality performers, the next few years of the team will be something to look forward to. Synacek won the Drake Relays title with a high jump of 5'9" which was also a school record. She won every meet she was in, until state where she placed second. She also broke the school record for the 200 at the state meet with a time of 26.61 . ''I'm really proud of Tiffanie, she did a great job and I just can't believe she did so well, we've been making her jump shorter and when it comes time to go big, she does," said head Coach Pat Nepple said. Synacek admitted her school record of 5'9" was intimidating. "It gets very scary at eye level. I attempted 5-8 at Lewis Central though, and I knew I had it, it was very close," Synacek said. ' Not only was Synacek surprised but coach Pat Nepple was as well . "She won at 5-7, which was the best and then she got 5-8 and 5-9 and that was great. It wasn't all about setting records, but what she did was unbelievable," said Nepple. To make practices fun the girls played games inside. One thing they did to have fun was scavenger hunts. They would run around the school inside looking for certain objects. The girls worked hard the entire season and stepped up when they needed to. When districts rolled around, they worked even harder to make it to state. The track team also had two seniors that were leaders and helped out a lot with the team. These two, Jean Carlson and Ellie Oswald , were great at keeping the team motivated and made sure everyone had fun . 'They are great kids, if you know them great, if you don't, you should," Nepple joked . The relay teams had a great season, as many earned medals at all the meets. The hard practice everyday paid off and they earned numerous medals and honors. "We did a great job with the relays, we almost always won at each meet, the practices really helped in the end," Ellie Oswald said. The girls track team had a great year, with the girls returning next year, there will be more to see . Left.

Rising ove by jiff kammrad Broken records, new times to beat, and a well established team are just some characteristics of the boys track team's phenomenal ending to a great season! The boys track team had many highlights during the year. Senior James Smith sets new records, Coach Bob Neilsen was inducted into the C.B. Relays Hall of Fame, and coach John Kinsel finished his final year as a coach . "We are really going to miss coach Kinsel next year, he was a really big part of the success the boys track team has had," coach Doug Muehlig said . The squad consisted of 68 boys with dedication from all including the coaches. Seniors were positive leaders and set the pace for the rest of the team. "We had outstanding people on the team this year that worked hard and it all paid off in the end," Smith said . Smith broke his own 100 meter school record with a 10.29 at the Missouri River Conference track meet held in Sioux City. Following that, Smith broke the 200 meter the same day with a 21 .19. He wasn't the only breaking records for the squad, Mike Neville tied Jhe high jump record at 5'1 O", Brian Clark breaking the freshman high jump record with 5'1 O", and the 4x100 team consisting of, Smith, junior Mike Moore, junior Marty Rounds, and senior Cory Leslie broke the record with a 43.29. It was an awesome season for the boys and a lot of compliments were given out to the well-rounded squad, not only for their great ability, but for the character they show. "After many track meets, other coaches would come up to us and tell us how classy our group of boys are, how appreciative they are for them helping out with the meet, and how each individual boy has shown such great character. We --~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~---~~~~~~~~~~~---- were very proud of them," Muehlig said. State was the goal this year for the team and they had a lot of surprises getting there. Smith led the team in the 100 meter and the 200 meter, Mike Neville at high jump, Chris Tamayo in the 1600 meters, Rounds in the 110 high hurdles, Jeff Schanuth throwing the shot put, and the 4x100 team all headed to Des Moines. "We had a variety of boys going this year and it was nice to see different people there this time," Tamayo said. It wasn't the best at state, but the guys put as much as they could into the meet. Smith finished 4th in the 100, and 5th in the 200, Rounds finished 3rd in the 110 meter highs, Schanuth got 24th place in the shot put, 4x100 team ending at 14th, Tamayo was 15th in the 1600, and Mike Neville was 15th with a 5'10" jump. "It was a wonderful season for the team, although we are losing great leaders this year, I have faith that the team will remain well with the upcoming boys next season," Muehlig said. Boys track is well respected by the school, community, and others thanks in large part to Nielsen. Neilsen was honored during the season by being inducted into the C.B Relays Hall of Fame. Far Left.

Making history and having fun playing golf with friends; could life get any better? For the boy's golf team, life was bliss. Sports usually are physical and fast paced but one sport that is calm, at one's own pace and relaxing is golf. The boys on the golf team know that first hand. "It's fun to go out there and play with my friends . Plus I get to golf for free," sophomore Cory Green said. The boys started the season well by placing fourth out of 20 teams in the Abraham Lincoln-Tee Jay Invite. "I did well this year. We performed good as a team," senior Jake Bridge said. Not only did they place highly, they also achieved a new school record. "We have had the best season in Tee Jay history. Everyone's proud of it," Bridge said. So how did they do so well and make history? The turnout of the players would be the answer. Many young new faces were placed in the lineup. "We had a lot of younger classmen join and varsity consisted of seniors," Bridge said. The boys played at 15 meets throughout the season and raked in some ' wins. With so many meets, all the boys learned and improved more after each one. The only downfall to the season was some of the seniors not returning. Coach Wayne Mains said he was disappointed in not seeing some seniors return either due to work or injuries but was overall happy about the season . Mr. Mains also said he was very proud of the seniors who did return as well as the other returning members and new faces. So if anyone is looking to join a sport that's not too physical, is relaxing and fun , as well as being able to hang out with friends all afternoon and play at their own pace, then golf is just the sport.

Many people believe that golf is a completely boring and easy sport but golfers disagree. Golf takes much coordination and skill. Golfers take time to learn techniques for hitting the ball long distances and putting. With all of the time put into golfing and the practice they have had, the girl's golf team has earned what they've wanted. "This year has been the best because we are 11-0," sophomore Sarah Paulsen said. The girl's golf team had one its most successful seasons in history, winning a majority of the events they were entered in. Many new faces joined the golf team this year and helped the team to victory. The team received many awards and medals. "This season we added one freshman , who made varsity, one sophomore and two new juniors," Paulsen added. The season started off very well and many golfers made a big improvement. "There really isn't just one most improved golfer but a couple, Kiersten Ruff and Jessica White," assistant Kelly Duffek said. There are millions of great golfers in the world and many attend Thomas Jefferson. The top 5 golfers were: #1 Ashtyn Neill, #2 Sarah Paulsen, #3 Jessica White, #4 Kiersten Ruff, and #5 Allison Chadwick. The girl's golf team said they wouldn't change anything about the season or the way they practiced except they wanted more people to recognize them for their accomplishments. "I wish more people knew about our team's accomplishments and we were more recognized," sophomore Kiersten Ruff said. Right. Junior Ashlyn Neill tries to save par by chipping for the gree n.

The girl's tennis team struggled at the beginning of the season but they improved as the year went on. "The season started off pretty bad, but it got better," sophomore Brittany Hiers said. The season was not all about wins and losses, a lot of girls go out for tennis to spend time with friends and have a good time. The girls are treated very well and they have fun meeting new people. "I became friends with everybody, and everyone was real nice," sophomore Cambria Brannan said. Hiers did well for the team. She got first in the city tournament and she also got first in the conference meet. She was also a good leader as a sophomore, she played in the team's number two spot, and she still has two more years of tennis to ' shine. The team was very lucky to have a young athlete such as her. "It was fun getting first in city and conference," Hiers said. The team performed well considering they were mainly juniors and sophomores, but they are hoping to do better next year after getting some experience under their belts. Junior Barb Lambirth played in the number one spot. She was a very talented tennis player, and a very good leader, and she is very anxious to start playing next year. She was in her third year of playing tennis, and she came a long way to earn the team's number one spot. The tough part of the year was getting the young girls and first year players into the swing of things, but they caught on to how things were done as the season went on. "The biggest issue with the team was that we didn't have any seniors, and getting the young girls started was tough ," Conner said . Both Lambirth and Hiers were big contributors to the team. Freshman Chelsey Stotts was also a key contributor to the team , as she was thrown into the fire as a first year player and she was able to handle the heat. Stotts played in the number six spot for the team and did very well for the team. "Number one and two, Barb and Brittany, both came a long way. Freshr<nan Chelsey Stotts in her first year is making a big contribution to the team," Conner said. The varsity team consisted of four juniors, a sophomore, and a freshman. So the team will be returning all of their varsity players. The team is also hoping to improve in the off-season, but the team still feel that they had a decent year. 'We'll hope that we see some improvement, and if everybody works in the off-season, we should be pretty solid with everybody returning," Conner said. Left.

To most students the word love is supposed to mean something good. To a tennis team that's not quite the case. In tennis the word love means their score is zero at that point. During the season the boys tennis team didn't have to use the word love a lot. The boys had big wins against A.L. considering tennis was one of the few sports that beat them. They had a few pretty close matches both times, but in the end they fought and came out ahead each time they played the Lynx. "It felt good to beat A.L. The last time we played them felt the best. We came from behind in almost every match and came out ahead and won the game 8-1 . The players stepped up and considered themselves a team by the middle of the year which was something we didn't have last year," coach Dave Lutz said. When the boys went to L.C. for the city tournament they returned with five city champions who were seniors John Crummer, T.J . Walker, Sean Kruse, Troy Taylor and sophomore Kevin Tholen. They also returned with an overall city championship for the entire team. At the conference tournament the team had two players play singles, No. 1 singles player Crummer and No. 2 singles player Kruse. Crummer won all of his games at the tournament and won the conference title of No.1. Kruse won five out of six of his games and was the runner up at No. 2. "I expected it would be a good year, but I never thought it would be this good. I was surprised that I went the entire season undefeated and won as many titles as I did," Crummer said . At conference they also had two double teams. No. 1 team of Walker and Taylor, and the No. 2 team of Tholen and senior Derek Kessler. The doubles teams played well during the meet, but they just got beat. The team finished third overall. The team went to Sioux City for districts, where the team placed second. They still could have had a chance to go to state by beating the other second place winners from other districts. The team first played Sioux City North and swept the meet 5-0. They played very well and proved one again they deserved the chance to play at state. Then they went to Johnston to play Ames. Wh.en the team was ready to leave for Johnston two of their players were not there yet. The team only had four players to go to the sub state finals , but they needed six or they would have to forfeit. They had to move up j.v. player junior Eric Schnackenburg, who played No. 6. Senior Nick Barth, who was kicked off the team earlier in the season, dropped everything to be ready to go in half hour to rejoin the team and play at No. 4. Without their No. 3 and 4 players the team's line up was messed up and they lost to Ames 0-5 to end the season. Left.

Kicking roun by lacey corum Starting out on top, the girl's soccer team came out with tons of energy and was ready for any challenge headed their way. The girl's soccer season started off with a real bang.Throug hout the season the girl's soccer team had their ups and downs but yet they kept their focus on each and every game. At the beginning of the season everything seemed to be going easily but as each game came the team was pretty inconsistant. "It's hard to tell if we have improved because our schedule got harder as the season went on, so we weren't sure if we were getting worse or the other teams were getting better," junior Courtney Uhl said. With more games and less practices there wasn't much time to work on each aspect of the game. Every team has a certain weakness but this season they didn't show it. "This year we could have put more practice into shooting and passing, but all in all we can't be perfect," junior Samantha Flowers said. All of the girls have different styles as for shooting, passing, kicking and most of all talking. The team had to learn each individual players strength s and weaknesses but the only thing was trying to put together the team and the game. "The hardest thing this year was trying to put a whole game together," sophomore Jennifer Swatek said. Throughout the season the girl's soccer team had many supporters cheering their way to victory and making them want to reach for more. "Most of our fans were parents, but they helped us win by yelling for our team," sophomore Jennifer Swatek added. The team played all of its games with the attitude to win and the sportsmanship to play with each other. Even though winning isn't everything, the team was determined to make it to state. After all of their hard work, they made it to substate finals. The girl's soccer team first played A.L. in the first round of the substate tou rnament. The team beat the Lynx and moved on to a tough contest against Lewis Central, a team they had lost to earlier in the season.They beat the Titans in a shootout giving them an opportunity to play in substate finals. · The team knew they needed to step up their game before playing state-ranked Johnston. Playing Johnston wasn't an easy game, but they kept it close. The game ended with Johnston pulling out a 2-1 victory, and advancing to the state tournament. Although the girls were down in spirit after the game, they still kept their heads high. Even though they didn't make it to state, they all knew they tried their best and would wait until next year to succeed in making it to state. Left.

The Missouri River Conference title is a championship every athletic team strives to achieve. The boy's soccer team accomplished that goal. There was a three way tie between T.J., A. L., and Sioux City North for the Missouri River crown . "We had a great season, it just sucks that we have to share the title with two other schools," sophomore Dean Lantz said. The team had the chance to win the title outright when they played Abraham Lincoln at the new Creighton soccer facility. The team lost a heartbreaker in a shootout leaving the door open for a possible tie for the conference title. "If we would have won the game, it would have been the first time in history to be conference champions. It was also an inner city game, which probably would have put us in first or second place instead of last in the city," freshman Matt Evans said . The varsity team had seven graduating seniors, which were Wade Blackman, Dane Christensen, Brandon Evans, Dustin Jager, Jake McGlade, Jake Smith, and Derek Townsend, that lead the team to many victories. Back in the goal with Evans, up to Townsend at forward , the senior talent was outstanding and will be missed. "In all my four years of soccer this was my best year, not only because of the MRC title, but because of how well the team played," Smith said . A team's relationship with each other can make or break a team. They had a ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~- strong bond on and off the field, which helped them throughout the season. "We had a great year using a combination of senior leadership and new players to create a team chemistry that showed T.J. it's first conference championship in eight years," Brandon Evans said. In the first substate game, the Jackets topped Sioux City East 4-0 in the first round of substate play. But, unfortunately, all good things must come to an end, and in the next substate game, the boys fell short and lost to Lewis Central 1-0. "Things could have been better. It just sucks that we didn't make it to state and should have," junior Aaron McCloud said. The boys had a chance to experience many new things that were moments to remember. They got to play against Roncalli and A.L. on the new Creighton soccer field, and earned the MRC title for the first time. "Our season went great. We ended up playing better than I thought. I didn't like the way our season ended, but we gave it our best effort. I'm going to miss the seniors next year, but we hope to have a strong squad next year," sophomore James Driver said. Left.

Photo by Amanda Haynie. creating Impressions By Brandy Pierson One of the most overlooked departments in school is Fine Arts. They don't usually get the credit they deserve for their hours of hard work and dedication. High school is remembered for sports and athletes most of the time, but what about drama, band, choir, and their members? Shouldn't they be remembered too? They left an impression just as sports and any other group has. Drama left its impression by the plays they put on. Months and months of preparation is spent for three nights of entertainment for the student body as well as the public. Where would sporting events be without their trusty band there ready with songs to pump up the crowd as well as the game? Their impression is left by their hard work and top ratings at competitions. Orchestra is the most often forgotten Fine Art. When you think about Fine Arts, you mainly think about band, but orchestra is just as good as band and puts in just as much hard work and dedication. Last but not least, there is choir. It's the only place where beautiful voices are heard in a classroom. How many people can say they can sing and hit perfect notes? Almost half of the school can but do they get the recognition they deserve? Right. Senior Elissa Im and sophomores Brittany Turpen and Nathan Haden perform during the Fine Arts Assembly.

' • As the players run off of the field for halftime, the band gets ready to perform in front of the restless crowd. But one thing that no one thinks about as they watch the graceful moves of the flags held by the color guard, is how much work and dedication is put into the relatively short show. The band worked hard on the show that featured music from the movie "The Labyrinth." Although some work hard to make the band successful, others do not. "One of the weaknesses in the marching band is the lack of dedication," sophomore Lisa Stanfill said. Even though there are weaknesses in the Regiment there are even more strengths. One strength of the band is the band director, David Clark. Most would agree that Mr. Clark can be a little strict. "Even though Mr. Clark is strict I think that he is a good teacher," freshman Heather Sullivan said. Some people like band and others do not. During the first few weeks of school a cou I of people dropped out of the class. "I d1a like the class much, there were too ractices an it got boring doing things dover," sophomore Erin Adkins said. here are good and bad aspects of By Matt Thomas being in marching band. Some good things are getting to talk to friends and getting to compete against other people and schools at competitions. The regiment went to three different competitions. The first was the River City Round Up Parade, which was held on Sept. 25. It wasn't really a competition because they were not judged against other schools by actual judges, but they were judged by other people. The second competition was the Southwest Iowa Band Jamboree, held on Oct. 2, where they were watched and rated by judges. They got first place in the parade contest and second in the field contest. They also got the award for best Wood Wind Section. The last competition was the State Competition held at Council Bluffs Stadium Oct. 16. They were also rated by judges during this competition . They got a division one rating, the best you can get. "One of my favorite parts of marching band is getting to compete against others," Stanfill said. Some of the bad aspects of being in marching band are early morning practices and being singled out in front of the whole class. "_The practi~es ~re horrible because they are so early in the morning, Sullivan said. Compared to other schools the regiment is one of the best. E~eryone at Thomas Jefferson should be proud of Monticello's Regiment. Background. The Regiment practices outside on a hot day. Photo by Kristina Congdon. Left.

Without these organizations, volunteering would be scarce, no food drives to help those in need, students may not get the first hand experience of being responsible, students might not be putting together events, no beehive lunch, and students might not get a chance to experience what a real world job is like. I mentioned experience a few times as I listed the jobs held in organizations and that is another important impression. Not many students get the chance to experience business or marketing firsthand like they do in DECA or plan a school dance such as Homecoming, like Student Council. These organizations don't only benefit the students, but the community as well. Members of ASTRA hold food drives, collect cans, help homeless shelters, and much more. Without this group, the community would not see much teen involvement in volunteering. FEA (Future Educators of America) is a small and sometimes overlooked organization . Their main goal is to become more informed on their role as future teachers. These organizations are just a few of many impressions in high school. Right.

The ASTRA students did, they lent out their hands to help the community in different ways. ASTRA stands for ability, service , training, responsibility and achievement. ASTRA met every Wednesday. The main purpose of ASTRA was to help people around the community who were in need. ''This after school program is a good way to get community service for Life Skills, to help others and not themselves and also gain responsibility and leadership," English teacher Lizzy Busch said. ASTRA volunteered around the community in many ways, including donations to the Micah House, held a drive for the Phoenix House and raised $450 from teachers to wear jeans all Above.

ASTRA students helped serve breakfast to the faculty during a Monday morning meeting . Mrs . Busch held a Christmas party at her house for her students. "My favorite thing I've done in ASTRA is when Mrs. Busch had our Christmas party," sophomore Katrina McKeeman said. In October ASTRA members decorated the main hallway and dressed up for Halloween. The students hosted the "Haunted Hallway" and also handed out candy to trick or treaters. During Homecoming week, ASTRA got to decorate a float which was a 50's theme. ASTRA students sold holiday grams for every holiday and the money went to by Lacey Corum the ASTRA fund. Every month ASTRA went to the Ronald McDonald House to cook dinner for the families and they also held a Hoops for Heart tournament in April to raise money for the American Heart Association. "I like to go to the Ronald McDonald House to cook for everyone ," junior Firnas Boutrous said. . Altrusa International is the parent organization that sponsors ASTRA. "I think ASTRA is something you have to want to do. If you are always thinking of time you won't appreciate what you do for others ," sophomore Cambria Brannan said. Some students like to help others to feel good about themselves and know that they are doing something great and helpful. Although ASTRA takes a lot of time , many members enjoyed their time in the group. "What I like about Astra is going out with other ASTRA members and doing community service and helping others out but I have fun at the same time," junior Firnas Boutrous said. "I like being in ASTRA because you can really get involved in the community and the school. You meet new people and you can make great friends," sophomore Katrina McKeeman. ASTRA was a good way to meet people that students did not already know. Students learned many different skills in this after school activity that will benefit them later in life, and they enjoyed it very much! • Top.

National Honors Society is one of the very few organizations that have around 70 students who do just that. What exactly is NHS? NHS supports nonprofit community service and helpful activities for everyone. They were sponsored by senior counselor Nancy Hale and co-sponsored by teacher, and school-to-career coordinator, Deb Goodman. Before becoming an active member in NHS the stu dents must meet all the requirements for the first year. At the end of the year, in March, they are inducted and are fully active members.

After meeting all requirements, being inducted, and maintaining all expectations the newly inducted members may run for the next years offices. Officers included Ellie Oswald , president; Jo Ann Carlson, vice president; Rochelle Larsen , secretary; and John Crummer, treasurer. NHS received a $700 grant from 7 Can Help. They decided to use the money to buy books for elementary kids , in particular, third graders. They By Kristina Congdon bought the books and went to all the elementary schools in the area to read the books to the third graders. The kids were then able to keep the books to take home over the summer for their own collection. "I'm happy about how we decided to use the money, I think we made a good choice," junior Stephanie Wade said. Other volunteer activities included things such has going to Camp Hitchcock. There the students gathered seeds for the spring planting and also cleared trails. "My favorite part of Camp Hitchcock was being outside and being able to interact with all the members," Wade said. In March NHS had a very busy month because they also organized all the Hall of Fame ceremonies and inductions. There was a large dinner planned for the Hall of Fame inductions as well as the NHS inductions. The students that were inducted into NHS were inducted in front of all the Hall of Fame members. There· was also an assembly held to inform all the students in school of the new inductees and Hall of Fame inductions. NHS is a great way to get involved not only in school activities but also within the community. It involves students volunteering, and offers many diverse opportunities for students. It is organizations like NHS that improve and help our school get the respect that it does. Top. Sponsor Nancy Hale speaks at the Hall of Fame assembly and introduces new members.

The members of DECA (Distributive Education Clubs of America) were able to apply for jobs to work in the Beehive. Members had to take certain classes to participate in DECA. They could take classes such as: Business Management, Retailing, Marketing Education, Marketing Corporation , and Sports Marketing.

Some of the DECA members went to a regional competition and a state competition, a once in a life time opportunity. Those who went to nationals were seniors Cyndi Reelfs for placing first in apparel and accessories manager level, Katie Kielty who placed first in retailing merchandise associate level , Childers also placed first but in business service management, and Ellie Oswald for getting first in full service restaurant manager level. While attending nationals in Los Angeles , those four competed and Oswald was the only student that got into one of the top ten spots. "Going up two days early was a good idea because we got to site see and get it all over before the competition. The best part was getti ng to know everyone better," Reelfs said. "I'm proud of her and how she (Ell ie) finished . We all had a great time," Kielty said. "I am very proud of those students who went to L.A. They have worked real hard this year and they deserved to go," DECA sponsor Gary Bannick said. Mr. Bannick has been the sponsor for the DECA organization for 35 years. He will be retiring this year and a new teacher will take his place. Many DECA members have said they will miss Mr. Bannick. "Mr. Bannick is very exciting and inspirational. I have learned a lot from him, so much that I am majoring in marketing at UNL. I will miss him a lot," Childers said. Business deals with almost every job graduates will work at. Many students wanted to take a business class . There were so many that Mr. Bannick didn't have enough room in his classroom for everyone to have their own desk. "I was excited when we had so many people that wanted to take a business class. I was upset when some people had to find another class to take. I know Mr. Bannick would have taught them all if he could have ," Childers said . The students in DECA that have worked hard all year and succeed at many different things wanted to say "What's missing from the fut- - e of DECA, you are ." Top.

ITS is a specific class of people who are elected into group and is run by officers. The Thespian Society is divided into Troupes. The ITS group has been part of ITS for 75 years . The school troupe number is 1015. The sponsor is Mary Theresa Green. Green is a professional actor and is highly qualified to run the troupe. "Ms. Greens a lot of fun and still knows how to get things done," senior Craig Gates said. The thing that makes ITS different from other clubs is that ITS revolves around a universal point system. Students have to earn a total of 1 O points their first year. There are a number of ways to earn points. If a student has the lead in a play it's worth three By Sean Franke points, going to a play earns one point. "ITS is mostly just run through points, kept track of by the clerk, Tom (Mawhiney)," said Gates. Officers were elected for ITS. Gates was elected President, Ian Wi lson vice president and Mawhiney was secretary. "As pres ident I get to run meetings and any postings, I'm the go to info guy, the sponsor's right hand man," said Gates. "I get to work with members a lot, keep track of points, in the go to guy," said Mawhiney. Som ethi ng that every member looks forward to is the ITS Convention. "Its the highlight of the year, take clas ses , have fun , see several good plays," said Gates. Something that Speech has over ITS is that students get to compete with other school. The competitions are held in December and March. Wilson, who was also on the speech team, made it to Allstate. Wilson had to compete against other speech team students around the area and ended up coming home with his head held high. To be part of the speech team, all one had to do is attend the meetings after school in room 143. The "Tommie Award", similar to the Academy Awards , were held by the drama department to honor both groups of students. ITS and speech team, two long held organizations where it's perfectly all right to speak freely and not be shy. Top.

"We went on the retreat to bond. There were so many new faces , I knew it would take a while to pull together as a group and get everything done this year that we wanted to," Student Council sponsor Pam Crawford said . "They ended up getting really close at the retreat and got many activities done that we wanted to accomplish." Student Council puts together two dances throughout the year, Homecoming and Snoball. They brainstorm to think of the theme and decorations, fund-raise with suckers to help pay for it, and they also get up early the day of the dance to decorate. "I really didn't know how to decorate for the Homecoming Above. Student Council members finish decorating for the Snoball dance. Photo by Andrea Gnader. Right.

I had a fun time after I learned what to decorate. It actually was sort of cool to see it done before anyone else," freshman Lizzy Daniels said. They also put a lot of work into their annual blood drives. They helped out the Red Cross by holding the blood drives in the New Fieldhouse. They promoted the blood drives by putting signs up and telling people in the community about the event. "I thought the blood drive went over okay. We didn't have as good a turnout as preview years, but a lot of students aren't 17 yet. I think our school gives blood because either they really care about helping people, or students just want to get out of class," junior Justin Henry said. FEA also does many activities around the city to help. The • Future Educators of America attended a fall and spring education conference held at UNO every year. They also participated in "Pajama Night" and National Reading Day at Rue Elementary. "My favorite thing we do is the pajama night at Rue. We go there and read to the children and hang out with them in our pj's. There's a lot of activities there for us to do and plenty for food to eat. There's also tons of things to get done that night. It's the first thing we do fo r National Reading Week ," FEA sponso r Patty Gillespie said. Everyone in FEA is interested in teaching as a profession or child care . The se future educators want to tea ch anywhere from daycare to high school classes. FEA's goal is to learn abou t the education profession from kindergarten to college professors. "I started sponsoring FEA four years ago. Before I decided to sponsor there wasn't a FEA since 1976. We have a real good group this year I think they all will be successful," Gillespie said. FEA also reads to children before school on Mondays, visits classrooms, and has different guest speakers to talk to them about their education. "My favorite thing that we have done in FEA was reading to the ' 3rd graders. It was real fun and really cool seeing their reactions when we read ," sophomore Katie Bardot said. They also have events just for fun . FEA rents or goes to the movies some nights and just spends time with each other. FEA and Student Council are both important groups that don't usually get the recognition that they deserve. ~F-E~.- Above.

Building, competing , trophies, and professionals; this doesn't make a lot of sense to most students but to the Engineering Club and Brain Bowl members it does. The Engineering Club is a club which picks a project to build then goes to competitions and gets judged. Professional engineers came before and after school to help the club better understand the city with the sewer, electricity, codes, etc. "We had two mentors come in and help us build and know the city codes. They helped us a lot. This was their last year and it was good to get a win in before they left," senior Mark Christopher said The projects they choose are places around Council Bluffs that Above.

They made a model of what it would look like tore down and a new business placed there. The city is looking into the idea," sponsor Al Hudek said. Christopher said, "We picked the Jubilee building and we replaced it with a new business and left the auto store alone." The models actually have been recognized by many people in the city. "Five years in a row, the models the club made have come true. Like the entrance to Broadway and the school board looked into the courtyard and bigger gym models," Hudek said. Once the club has picked a project and made a model, they go to competition with pamphlets for the judges. "At the competition , the students did a really good job. Out of 30 places we received a second , fourth , fifth , eighth, and ninth place medals," Hudek said. Christopher said, "We did a good job this year. We won $250 for the school." The club also won a "Best Teamwork" trophy in the Metro Peter Kiewit Center. The club consisted of captains and seniors Justin Hannon and Christopher, as well as Christy Childers, John Crummer, and junior Ian Wilson. "I became a captain because I was involved all four years and I was next in line," Christopher said. Another club that did very well this year was Brain Bowl; called Quiz Bowl at competitions. I Ill'-~ ·\' · ... -= . . . . . . - - - Throughout the year, the students performed at six competitions. Quiz enthusiasts also competed in the intra-school trivia contest, the one that wraps up the year. Overall, the club did very well and ranked high among the other schools and Brain Bowl worked hard and also ranked high. "I'm very proud of everyone for finishing and ranking so highly. I'm proud of the school," Hudek said. Both organizations did their fair share of work and it showed with trophies, medals , and honorable mentions. "Everyone worked very hard and put in a lot of time and effort. They worked very good as a team and won a trophy for it," Hudek said . Top.

You might ask, what impressions did I leave? Well let me explain. Freshmen leave their impression by their eagerness to grow up and be known as a high school student. They have left junior high and are ready to be a step closer to freedom. Sophomores leave their impression through the new responsibilities they have received. These responsibilities include driving, off campus lunch, getting a job and dating. Juniors impression is the "oh so close I can taste it" attitude. They are counting down the days until they are finally a senior. Sure each class makes an impression but during those four years each student leaves their mark for when they graduate. Their advice, best excuses, embarrassing moments, friendships, and dreams will be told and passed on for years to come. Some of the faces might be ones you know or they could be strangers, either way they have had an impression on you, even if you didn't realize it. Right.

They also may spend it being lazy on the couch or preparing for sports. The last week of summer! Gosh, that sentence can cause so much pain and/or excitement. It marks the end of freedom the ' end of sleeping in, and the end of staying up all night, every night. However, it also marks the beginning of sports and being able to see friends that one did not see all summer. Lets get the bad part out of the way. Freedom no longer rings in the house of high school students. Parents start to buckle down and lay down the laws for school. One now has an earlier curfew, and students also get the big lecture about being on time to classes and working hard to get good grades. · "During the last week of summer my dad lectures me about how I need to keep my act together and do everything I can to get good grades," junior Brad Samuelson said. There is no more sleeping in until twelve o'clock in the afternoon! That is the heartbreaker for most high school student. Close to the end of summer, some parents make their child start getting in the routine of waking up early, while others are still sleeping in until noon the day before school starts. This is the biggest change students have to adapt to. For those who get up at 6:00 a.m. to look good for school, it is a huge change. "I hate having to get up early. During the summer, I slept in until almost one o'clock in the afternoon every day," junior Marjory Christensen said. 106 Freshmen Heather Abels Jerry Adrian Jesse Albers Bradley Aldredge Jason Aldredge Joshua Aldredge Tiffa ny Allen Amy Archibald Arin Archibald Dirk Arneson Brianne Arnold Emily Arrick Andrew Arthur Kimberly Axtell Amanda Balmer Kristina Banderas Cassandra Banks Virginia Barnett Ethan Bartels Jamie Basch Bret Bazer Most students get use to staying up late and partying every night of the week during the summer. Students who stayed out until 4:00 a.m. and slept until 4:00 p.m. have to make some changes. Now those who play sports and want to do well in school have to stop having so much fun and start buckling down. However, not all is bad! The athletes get most excited about the last week of summer. Practice begins for cross-country, football, volleyball, cheerleading and dance. The week before school starts is a time when the athletes get a chance to interact with one another and a time to get in shape. "I love the last week of summer because we get to start running cross-country and I get to see all of my friends that I didn't see during the summer," sophomore Amanda Rounds said. The last week of summer also marks the beginning of a new school year and a new beginning. For some this means they have a chance to do things over and make changes in their lifestyles. It gives them a chance to get back on track. "I like the last week of summer because it makes me look forward to doing better in school," junior Alisha Kuhl said. During the last week of summer a lot of thoughts rush through students heads. They start thinking about what is to come of the upcoming year. It is their choice to decide whether those thoughts are good or bad. Left. Senior Nicole Krueger poses during the last week of summer in the Old Market while spending time with her friends.

Some freshmen give their expectation of what they thought high school would be like. Every freshman has a different view of what high school will be like. Some think it will be scary and tough, while others think it will be fun and exciting. It doesn't matter what students think it will be like, everyone is nervous about the first day. Some reasons freshmen are nervous about the first day are not knowing the teachers , worried about getting a lot of homework, and sometimes all of the freedom they have in high school can be scary. Another thing that can be scary is not knowing where all of the classes are, or getting there late. "I was a little worried about changing classes, I thought it would be tough," freshman Taylor Neumann said. Some other things that freshmen were worried about were credits and validations. To be able to graduate all students were required to have 48 credits, and to be considered a sophomore next year freshmen needed 12 or more credits. There were also 22 validations to get before the end of senior year. "I don't mind having to get 48 credits, how hard could it be," freshman Justin Garcia said, "The validations won't be bad either." There were also pluses to being in high school. Students had a lot more freedom between classes and during lunch. In junior high students were taken to lunch in lines led by the teachers. In high school that changes and students were able to walk to lunch alone. Another plus to high school was the BeeHive.

Most freshmen were happy to be out of junior high and into a new school. A new school that is bigger, offers more classes, and new faces. "I was really glad to get out of Wilson because now I'm getting older and have more privileges," sophomore Amanda Marsh said. Freshmen like being in high school because there is a lot more to do. "It seems like the day goes by quicker because there is a lot more to do in high school. Like show choir and there are a lot more sports in high school than in junior high," freshman Gracie Kiesner said . "Also we have dances and pep assemblies." Another reason people like being in high school is because most of the teachers are really nice. The teachers are also a lot less strict in high school than in junior high. "When I first came to high school, I thought my teachers were going to be mean but it turned out that they were real nice and helped me out a lot," Marsh said. When freshmen arrive for their first day of high school they are very nervous about classes , teachers, homework, and the unfamiliar. But after a wh ile they start to like coming to school everyday because of the friendly atmosphere created by the other students and the teachers. Homework also becomes easier over time and the worries become less. Left. The freshmen wait at the end of the stairs for the lunch bell to ring. Photo by Brandy Pierson. Below.

The cost to have the perfect vision and teeth can be very high, and thousands of dollars and millions of hours go into the making. Perfection doesn't always come easy but in today's society all types of people are undergoing dramatic changes to look their best. Almost every student in school has had braces, contacts, and/or glasses. Walking through the halls at school, countless students have braces or at least one can tell who has had them and who has not. The cost of having braces ranges anywhere from $2,000 up. "I've had braces twice, so that's almost seven thousand dollars," senior Nick Bigner said. Most students go to the orthodontist when they are between 13 and 14 years old to find out if they need braces. Some students are fortunate enough to get them at even a younger age, but others have to wait until they are older. The time involved with braces seems like forever. Depending on how bad your teeth are affects how long one must wear braces. Some are lucky and have to wear retainers for a short period of time but others have to cope with the pain of having them for at least a year or two. No matter how long the braces are worn, the end is the best. "When I got my braces off I felt super fantastic!" senior Natalie Godsey said. Eager students await the day they go to the eye doctor to find out if they need glasses. Usually the students need to wear glasses for a while to get used to them. 11 O Freshmen Dustin Congdon Jordan Cooper Jacob Corbett Brandon Creason Danyele Croghan Nathan Cudd Elizabeth Daniels Jerrod Danker Stephanie Davids Heather Davis Kaleb Davis Kevin Davis Thomas Davis Ian Desantiago Sarrah Donahoo Courtney Doremus Brianne Duncan Sheala Durham Destini Edmund Jayme Eledge Nadia Elmasri After a while, they can choose to start using contacts. Contacts can be worn for days or even weeks at a time, plus they are almost impossible to feel. "They (contacts) are really comfortable and I never have to take them out, unlike glasses," Godsey said. Slowly, glasses have been over-ridden by contacts as time goes by. The convenience of wearing contacts is endless , no more cleaning the glasses, and in some cases, no more getting made fun of. Contacts can change students lives by making them look totally different. A lot of students need glasses to read while others need glasses all of the time in order to see. Most students would agree that wearing contacts is a little easier than wearing glasses. "I would much rather wear contacts than glasses, plus they go along with my perfect teeth ," Bigner said. Glasses can also be costly to use. Frames usually run anywhere from one hundred to four hundred dollars. Some of this could be covered by insurance, but some must pay it straight from their pocket. Most teens grow up used to seeing braces , glasses, and contacts. Multiple students have had both glasses and braces, having the best of both worlds. Whether it's braces, contacts, or glasses, the costs and time are always an issue but in the end , the final portrait is worth remembering . Left.

Freshmen go along the same type of journey as Dorothy and Toto. Responsibility, credits and validations oh my! Sound a little like the "Wizard of Oz"? Dorothy and Toto go from little Kansas to the great and powerful Oz, just as all freshmen do every year, traveling from little junior high to great and powerful high school. "I was scared of getting lost," freshman Zach Mendoza said, "the halls are so big." Aside from the 'yellow brick road' or the confusing halls of high school, there are many other challenges. "The responsibility is overwhelming," Mendoza said. Along their journey, it is possible to meet a scarecrow, tin man, or cowardly lion. The scarecrow could be a new friend. The tin man, an upperclassmen, not having a heart for the underclassmen. Finally, the cowardly lion, being the teacher that you hear about being so mean, but are nicer than a teddy bear. "The upperclassmen and rumors about teachers scared me the most," senior Ashley Huss said, "I didn't want to get stuffed in a locker or get a referral from a teacher." Along with the different challenges and decisions of which 'road' or hall to take, some good can come of the journey. "At Wilson we only had a three minute passing time," freshman Jessica Madsen said, "I'm so happy that we get five minutes now." There are many other benefits to high school besides passing time. "The wider variety of electives that are offered at Tee Jay, not Christopher German Jessica Gonzalez Karen Gonzalez Cecily Graham Randi Greco Brent Green Jake Griffey Jennifer Guardado Jonathan Gundersen Eric Guzman Matthew Gwennap Kelly Hall Jamie Hamm Jamie Hansen Ann Harmon Sean Harrel Daven Hatcher Jolene Hatcher Joshua Hathaway Kevin Hathaway Skye Hauger Jonathan Hauser Tara Haynes Alexander Hedrick 11 2 Freshmen being confined to one hall, and after school activities are my favorite parts of high school," Huss said. In junior high, everyone was on a 'team'. Teams continued into the freshmen year but much more freedom was allowed to leave the halls as you went to other classes. "I liked being able to interact with other people in school beside just freshmen ," Huss said. "At Wilson everything was really close together and there was always a teacher with us." More freedom for students seems to be the biggest and most appreciated change. "I get more freedom not only from teachers but from my parents also," Madsen said. After school activities, whether they are a participant or not always seem to please incoming freshmen. "The football games are so fun," Mendoza said, "I get to hang out with my friends and cheer on the teams to." "The dances are much different than those at junior high," Huss said "More people interact at the dances in high school." More dedication, planing and overall involvement from students are many of the major differences. The unknown world of high school can be a big shock for many freshmen. Students should realize that they are not in Kansas anymore and there is no turning back. So they should enjoy the years that they have left of high school, because time flies. Left.

Some fears are small and petty while others seem larger than life. Any way you look at it, life will always be full of fears. What makes us have a fear of something? Is it the way something looks, sounds, or moves? There are many things people are afraid of, it can be anything from snakes, to bugs, or even math. There isn't a person in this world who can say they don't have at least one thing they are scared of. The most common fear is obviously death. Of course no one wants to die, but you can't escape the inevitability that it's going to happen. "I would have to say my biggest fear would be dying, among other things," said sophomore Gina Wilson. Death wouldn't be that scary if we knew how we were going to die and when. "If I knew I was going to pass away in my sleep in my 90's I would have no problem with it," said Wilson. Another big fear by people is losing someone they love. Everyone can say they've lost someone near and dear to them whether it's a parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, or even a pet. "I kind of have a small fear of losing someone I love," said Wilson, "I've lost family members before and it hurts but more or less I have a fear it's going to be someone very near to me someday." Everyone hates that odd feeling of knowing someone you love isn't there anymore. No ones likes being alone. In relationships, friendships, or just having anyone at home helps. No one likes the feeling of knowing that no one is there for you, that you have no one to talk to about anything. So for some people it's the fear of being alone by yourself.

Everybody has that longing to be wanted or needed , and for some people they are afraid of that feeling. One of the most common fears among people is obviously small insects, snakes and spiders. "I wouldn't exactly say I'm scared of snakes or anything but when you just see them because you didn't see them coming or hear them, just the initial shock of it," said senior Andy Flatt. Some people aren't afraid of spiders or snakes because they just don't like them, but it can turn into a major medical problem such as an allergic reaction or certain poison inside the insect. Some of the smallest insects such as the Daddy Long legs spider are the most poisonous but their fangs are not strong enough to penetrate the skin to inject the venom. Some people are scared of some movies and that's it. Not insects, or death or anything, just scary movies. Some movies people are scared of are the Exorcist, the Ring, and Nightmare of Elm Street. "The scariest movie I have ever seen is the Ring, I won't watch it alone," said Wilson. "The scariest movie I have ever watched was the Exorcist, but I was real little when I saw it," said Flatt. Everyone has some sort of fear. We all have our little flaws and fears that make us jump from the biggest to the smallest things out there. Left.

Here is students' good and bad views on this year's a look at some entertainment. There were a wide variety of opinions of what was hot and what was not in the entertainment world. In music, whether it was rock, hip-hop, punk, or country, there is always a new artist on the rise. For many girls, Ashlee Simpson was the hot, new singer. "I like the new Ashlee Simpson cd , because I like her style," sophomore Ashton Belt said. Many big movie fans probably spent some time at the new Star Cinema. For those into comedy movies, flicks like "Anchorman" or "Without A Paddle" were must sees. "'Anchorman' was the best movie I saw this summer, because I like Will Farrell," sophomore Colby Rueschenberg said. For those more interested in romance or tear jerker movies, one option to choose from was 'The Notebook." Some students really enjoyed the movie and went right to the library to check out the book to read. For people who enjoyed movies that kept them in suspense and wanting more, they would have enjoyed "Wicker Park." It was the type of movie where people don't know for sure what is going on until at least the middle of the movie. Junior Josh Kuhl said, "I really enjoyed 'Wicker Park,' because it was suspenseful and very mysterious." There were also bad movies of the summer. "'The Village' was a stupid movie and a total waste of money. I would of rather saw Princess Diaries 2," sophomore Ryan McCloud said. Another bad Marcia Minnieweather Christopher Minshall Seth Moffitt Sabrina Montanez Michael Montgomery Justin Monzu Nicole Moore 116 Freshmen Heidi Moosmeier Jessica Morales Ronald Morris Stefanie Mortensen Amanda Moscato Maria Munoz Rebecca Myers Yolanda Negrete Anthony Nelson Leshonda Nelson Taylor Neumann Austin Nordman Karena Nuno Reanna Nuno movie was "Open Water." It was supposed to be a better version of the 1975 movie "Jaws," but didn't live up to the hype. There were a lot of singers that starred in movies. Singer Lindsey Lohan starred in the movie "Mean Girls" that most teenage girls loved. The movie really can relate to how high school life is and how cliques think and judge other people. Another singer, Hilary Duff, has done the same. She starred in the movie "A Cinderella Story." When it comes to television shows, the dating reality shows were getting a little repetitive. Some reality shows though, had teenagers glued to the television. A couple good shows that were watched were "The Real World," "The Newlyweds," "The Assistant," and "The Ashlee Simpson Show." "'The Assistant" was really funny and Andy Dick is the man!" sophomore Matt Herrick said. There were also television stars who starred in movies . Chad Michael Murray stared in the TV show "One Tree Hill," and also played one of the leading roles , along with Duff, in "A Cinderella Story." Why do students like what they do? No one really knows, or probably ever will know. The favorite things in entertainment to teenagers, are the things that draw the most attention, and aren't considered 'stupid.' To say the least, there are always new things out in entertainment that are considered good or bad, and that's just how it is. Left.

Between being involved in activities inside and outside of school, along with having a job, students find it hard managing their schedules. Rush, rush , rush! A lot of the students have mastered this skill. Between school activities, jobs and that midterm paper, most students know what it's like to have no time and a lot of stress! Students were always being told , throughout the year, to make their time at high school special and memorable by getting involved. But what the teachers and staff neglected to tell them , was how hard it would be to manage their schoolwork on top of it. Senior Christy Childers was involved in cheerleading , DECA, ASTRA, and NHS. But that's just in school. Childers was also involved in dance and other groups outside of school. With only about an hour (at the most) to do her schoolwork, life was all about rushing with no time to spare. "I don't have very much time to relax or get everything done in one day," Childers said. Junior Levi Gates agrees with Childers. "There is like no time for everything that I have to do," Gates said. With band practice early in the morning and football practice along with another band practice after school , Gates found himself getting home around 8:30 or 9:00 at night. On top of school activities, many students were involved in outside functions and groups as well. Freshman Frankie Hughes was a part of a dance studio outside of school which she spent a lot of time at. This cut into her homework time, causing more stress for the dancer.

Having to work until closing time had a big impact on a students work or activity in school. A bad performance on a test can often be due to a late night at work or getting home late from a school function or game. "A lot of times I'll have to work until closing time during the week and I rarely have time to study or get my homework done," junior Courtney Neumann said . Even with students who weren't involved in activities or have a job, time can still be a little scarce every now and then. Sometimes students can be so unlucky to get homework from all eight classes due the same day and a test at the end of the week to study for. Trying to jam all of the facts into their brains at once was a bit stressful. "You are constantly trying to do tons of homework, which you never have time for," junior Gary Gahm said . All in all, students didn't always get the cred it they deserved. Students were often harped on by adults telling them how easy they have it. This may be true in some cases , but a lot of students had tighter schedules than some adults. With a full schedule, a lot of students wish they could have more time in their classes to cut down on homework. Left. Sophomore Krysta l Harris stressed during a big test in mathematics.

Here's a look at how guys and girls differ greatly and why some things they do take longer than others. "Beeep, beeep,beeep,beeep!" If you're a guy and you're waking up to that sound, it probably means you can hit the snooze button a couple more times and sleep for a while longer. Then you have to get up and do what you have to do to get ready. If you're a girl, it probably means you can hit the snooze button once or twice, but then you have to get out of bed and jump into the shower then you have to get ready. At least that may describe sophomores Nick Hunt and Michaela Hotz' routines in the morning. If you're like Hunt, you probably get up around 7:00 a.m. and leave the house sometime around 7:25 a.m. That's 25 whole minutes to get ready. How do they do it so fast? "I pretty much get dressed, do my hair, brush my teeth, put on deodorant, pack my book bag, and leave the house," Hunt said . If you are a girl, it probably takes you a little bit longer to get ready than it does guys. For Hotz it takes her two in a half hours to fully get ready. So what takes so long? " I take a shower, comb and blow dry my hair, put in my contacts, do my makeup, pick out what I'm going to wear," she said. "Then I get dressed, finish doing my hair, brush my teeth, accessories to go with my outfit, then I get ready to go and leave." There's a popular book called "Women are from Venus Men are from Mars." That title is very true in that case. If you look at how Mike Smiley Amber Smith Stephanie Smith Mychal Snipes Nicole Snipes Rikki Snipes Brooke Sommerville 120 Sophomores David Sorenson Dustin Speck Bianca Stanfill Alisha Stewart Shilo Stockton Chelsey Stotts Melissa Struck Heather Sullivan Tarah Sullivan Rusty Sutton Troy Sweeney Abigail Tate Ashley Taylor Krystle Thompson guys and girls get ready they are two totally different ways. The book tells why men and women are so different from each other. "Guys definitely have it easier than girls do," Hunt said. A big reason girls take longer to get ready is their make up. Most girls have to have their make up done perfect or as close to perfect as they can get it. Girls tend to care about how they look more than guys do so they do extra stuff to make themselves "Gorgeous." Hotz said that her makeup consists of foundation, powder, black eyeliner and mascara, a wide variety of eye shadow, blush, and sometimes glitter. Guys don't have to deal with any of that. Guys can go to school after just washing their face. Sociology teacher Mary Beth Kueny and Assistant Principal Todd Barnett, said that they agree that the reason girls take so much longer to get ready is they have more hair so there is more stuff they can do with it. Mrs. Kueny and Mr. Barnett also agree that in general, girls care more about their appearance wherever they go. "I hate getting up so early, but I also don't want to go to school without my hair and make up done," Hotz said. Looking good is very important to a large percent of students. Girls and guys get up early so they can dress to impress others. Be sure to set the alarm clock. Left. Sophomore Michaela Hotz makes sure her makeup is looking good during passing period at school.

Activities like the Special Olympics give these students special opportunities. When one thinks of the special education program, they often overlook it, and the students involved. If you really think about it you'd see these students are no different from the rest of the student body. They are just as smart/intelligent, athletic, and just as beautiful, but they have a greater obstacle in the way. This program is intended to help kids that are struggling in one class or more. Also some students may need the extra attention that other students might not need. There are two classes with up to 15- 17 students per class. These students had all the same classes as the rest of the student body but at many different levels. For example, if a student had a higher math level than another student, the teachers will have to teach each student, individually to improve that skill. The students had all the four core classes. "I don't want to be cooped up in one room all day," freshman Jesse Walker said. The lead teacher of the special education program is Mrs. Jean Blue and the associates that help out mean a great deal to the students. 'They've taught me so much throughout my four years here, and I don't know where I'd be without them," senior Josh McKeeman said. The activities provided for the special education students, such as the Special Olympics, give them a chance to take center stage and be recognized . They want to prove to the rest of the student Cassandra Wetzel Douglas Wever Erica Whaley Steven White Kevin Wickwire Raychal Wickwire Heather Wilkinson Kaylea Williams Nicole Williams Steven Williams Kyle Wilson Kyle Wilson Philip Wilson Brian Winn David Winn Marissa Wise Reanna Wiser Jesse Witzke Jeffery Woolsoncroft Martin Zeballos Stacie Zika 122 Freshmen body that they can work just as hard . "I try my hardest at the Olympics," senior Misty Bergantzel said. "It makes me feel good about myself knowing I've completed one of my goals." This program doesn't have many activities due to budget cuts and not having enough money to do anything, but the teachers try hard to make it a fun experience throughout high school. As a way of teaching the students, the teachers ta ke the students on field trips to better themselves in learning ways to take care of themselves after high school. "We have field trips to job sites, so they can learn to operate in having a job once they are out of high school," associate Mrs. Weese said. 'They learn to be more responsible from these experiences." If the program wasn't available, some students would miss the opportunities that others get. Many students have graduated or passed, aided by the special education program, and that is a huge accomplishment. "In this class, students are taught survival skills, such as cooking , cleaning, and following instructions," Mrs. Weese said. From the smaller obstacles to the larger ones, these students improve every day. "They've all improved so much in their studies and behavior, we've put some of them in normal classrooms," Mrs. Blue said. "No matter what the problem or challenge is, my students put great effort in everything they do, every day." Anjellika Zimmer Pl.

Everyone wants to make bucks and do something with their life. and the big When students were little kids, they always had a dream to be someone they looked up to, like a fireman, police officer, or a teacher. As time passed by, students hit their junior high years and their career plans changed. Many girls looked up to Tyra Banks and wanted to be models. As for many guys, they looked up to Marshall Faulk to be pro football players. Once they got into high school, their minds suddenly changed for their futures again. Some students decided family is more important than making a lot of money, but still have dream jobs. Even though students dream jobs may not come true, they can always dream. "I want to be the president of a Fortune 500 company and make a million dollars a year," senior Nick Barth said. "I would like to make a lot of money, meet many new people and manage different stuff." Junior Jodi Castanzo's dream job is to be a forensic scientist. "This job interests me because I get to go to many crime scenes and to make $90,000 a year would be just fine with me," she said. Not only is the perfect job a want but also the perfect salary. "Someday, I want to be a psychologist, to help others with their problems and hopefully making more than $100,000 a year," sophomore Amanda Baatz said. Freshman Briana Boner said, "I want to be a pediatrician, to take care of others when they are sick. My dream salary is to get a million dollars a year." 124 Freshmen Math teacher Mark Meyer, a teacher at Thomas Jefferson High School had a dream to be a pro athlete. "When I was younger I was inspired by my father, who was a coach. I also was involved in many sports and was always watching sports," Meyer said. He never chased his dream but when he went to college he then decided to be a teacher. "I wanted to become a teacher because I loved tutoring jr. high and high school students and I also could be a coach ," he added. People have dreams, some are little and some take years to pursue, but most of all, they can do anything with their lives. They choose their paths and go with it, no one can tell students no. It is up to students to achieve their goals, to improve their lives, and to chase their dreams. So when students go out there, students should give their all and try to succeed in what their going to do with their lives. Students who try their best and give one hundred percent everytime will be the ones who get the good jobs and big bucks. In other words, go for it, students can reach the stars and dream big. Students can make the money they want, achieve the happiness they deserve and fulfill the career of a lifetime. Our schooling now will prepare them for their futures and help them get the dream jobs they want. Their jobs will no longer be dreams but reality. They will have confidence in themselves accomplishing their goals that were once a dream. Left. Senior Nick Barth looks at all the money he wishes to have when he is successful.

Dream Jobs 125 by Courtney Uhl Some classes and activities got cut from last year, and some people weren't very happy with the changes. Who knows maybe the things you like most will be the next to get cut. What's up with this, T.J. had to share classes and teachers with A.L.? There is no more French, and the boy's locker room is now the girl's locker room? Even worse, the girls now have urinals, and the boys have tampon machines. All of these things have to deal with the budget cuts. T.J. and A.L. have to share the same drama and art teacher, this makes it worse than with any other school because of the known rivalry. Both schools think they are so much better than the other school. "I don't think that we should have to share classes with kids from A.L. It just makes it harder for the kids that have to go to the different school, because the kids know that they are from the rival school," junior Ashtyn Neill said. Drama teacher Mary Theresa Green, and art teacher Carrie Pople had to pull double-duty by teaching at both schools. The budget cuts made it so the school had to cut a foreign language, and that was French class. "I think they should have kept French, because not everyone wants to take Spanish for a foreign language," freshman Aaron Byers said. Not only was there a money problem but also a space problem. Room 112 was an old classroom but, due to the budget cuts, it was converted into a new storage room. 126 Sophomores Erin Adkins Jacob Adland Taesha Alfredson Benjamin Allen Kelly Anderson Shane Armstrong Seth Atilano Mariah Atteberry Michael Auffart Amanda Baatz Javier Barajas Katherine Bardo! Brittany Barker Karis Barlow Dustin Beghtel Cameron Behrens Ashton Belt Joshua Bennett To make it easier for the football players, the girls had to switch locker rooms so the boys could have the bigger lockers, for all of their equipment. On the upside for the girls, it won't feel like they are going into a dungeon when they go into the locker room. On the downside, the girls now have urinals. The boys don't know how wierd it is to walk into the girl's locker room and see urinals. When the girl's say they don't like walking into the locker room and seeing urinals, they can't say to much because the boys don't like walking in and seeing a feminine product machine. "The girls think it's so wierd seeing urinals how do you think us guys feel seeing a tampon machine when we walk into our locker room," junior Brian Meyer said. The guys only have one problem with the change in locker rooms and that is no more air when they come in from a hot days practice. The budget cuts affect a lot of people; students and teachers. Overall the students and teachers think that the changes that were made are for the good. Maybe all the changes that were made will affect us in the long run. Out of all the things that could have been cut, like sports, and maybe other teachers, the students are glad that none of the important things to them got cut. Just think that it could be worse and maybe a students favorite subject or sport could have been cut. Left. Senior Kelly King looks at a urinal that is now a part of the girls locker room.

Teenagers have to deal with a lot of responibiitlies and freedoms that start around that age, including a better job, a car, dating and much more. Life is about growing up, making decisions, learning, and receiving responsibility. Turning 16 is attached to many life lessons. Around the age of 16 teenagers date, work and take driver education. In Iowa, before someone can get their license they have to take a class called Driver's Education to get their license at 16. Driver's ed. takes a lot of time, motivation and money. "There is no point to it. If you already know how to drive, then you already know. Why do you have you pay for something your parents can teach you for free," sophomore Brittany Turpen said. Turning 16 is a huge and exciting thing to most teenagers. It's the excitement of driving without a parent. It's also the excitement of being able to work longer and earn more money. Turning 16 is another step towards being independent. "I'm excited to turn 16 because I will be able to drive , and I think I will have more freedom then," freshman Tasha Walker said. Freedom is a huge part of turning 16. There is no more parents dropping their kids off and having to pick them back up. The responsibility is now up to the student. When teenagers turn 16, most of them have a car. One has to be responsible to own and drive a car. They will have to pay for car payments and insurance. Most 16 year olds will get a job to pay for their bills . It gives a sense of ownership, responsibility and freedom. "My license will be the best part of turning 16. I think I will be able to do more," freshman Derek Underwood said. 128 Sophomores Hunter Carruthers Joshua Carse Norma Castillo Samantha Cawyer Gregory Childers Kyle Christina Joshua Churchill Douglas Clark Dana Clemmons James Coffin Justin Colton Melissa Cook Lacey Corum Jolene Costanzo Matthew Coziahr William Coziahr Cory Crum Katie Dahl When people get cars, other people tend to ask them for rides a lot more. When people give others rides, they are doing them a favor. "I always have to give people rides. It gets old really fast," junior Cody Johnson said. "I have a lot more responsibility now that I have a car. I have to pick up my little brother and I also give my friends rides all the time. It doesn 't bother me thou gh ," sophomore Garret Bil lington said . Even teachers remem ber when they got their licenses and first jobs. "I was excited to turn 16. That day I went right to the OMV when it was on 23rd street and got my license after school. I couldn't wait to start driving," P.E. teacher Nicole Vetter said . For some teachers , there were things a little more important than drivi ng , getting car, and working to pay for a car. "Sixteen wasn't very exciting for me. I was more interested in sports. There was a whi le when I was excited, but not for that long, ' math teacher Greg Garth said. Turning 16 is a big part of life that everyone goes through. It is suppose to be exciting and a step up from just being a teenager. For the people who haven't turned 16 yet, your time will come but for the people who have, happy belated sweet 16. Left.

Were they e nces that students want to remember or ones students want to forget? 1 Many firsts are the most memorable. Parents have to tell their children what their first word was and when their first step was taken, but what about experiencing a first for themselves? Like when students get their first cars, first date, and their first kiss. How exciting it felt to discover a first for themselves. Students cannot wait to turn 16, to stay out later, to be on their own, and finally get a car to go anywhere. Sophomore Andrew Gray got a 1990 white Ford Ranger for his 16th birthday. "My parents bought my first vehicle for me but I had a budget of $500," Gray said. Some parents choose to have their children gain responsibility by paying for it on their own. "I got my 1994 red Ford Probe, traded in my mom's car for it," sophomore Garrett Billington said. Once students get their first car, they go on their first dates. Usually dates start by going out to eat, hanging out with some of their friends, or going to the Lewis and Clark Monument for the beautiful scenery. "When I started dating Jason Caton in ninth grade, our first date was on April 25, after my birthday party. We went to the Star Cinema," sophomore Jennifer Swatek said. After going on a first date, a first kiss is soon to follow. "My first kiss was with Alex Fox in third grade at Walnut Grove Elementary," sophomore Kristi Dow said. Many students have their first kiss in elementary school, while 130 Sophomores Kayla Fay Benjamin Fisher Alex Fox Jeffery Franks Sarah Fredrickson Joseph Galda Julie Gannon Jesse Garcia Jasmyne Gardner Jessica Gessini Andrea Gnader Keith Golden Danielle Goldsberry Joedee Gonzales Angela Gonzalez Andrew Gi ay Cory Green Andrea Guillen others wait for the right person to share their first with. Girls' most memorable event is their first kiss because girls' strive for relationships, unlike guys who will always remember when they first got their license Back in students' younger years, they discovered many firsts. As they look into the future the best firsts are yet to come. Their first real love, their first born child, their first real job and best of all their first time exploring the world by themselves. Firsts will not stop because new things happen everyday and new obstacles jump in the way, so don't think students have conquered everything there is to conquer because more firsts are coming their way! Be ready for the future and more great firsts! As students look back on their lives they'll remember and cherish all of their memories with their friends and family, they will be reminded of their firsts. Sometimes these are memories people forget and sometimes there are memories people would like to forget but no matter what students firsts will follow them throughout their lives. As generations pass so will firsts for other young people. Many other people will have firsts and will also follow them as time passe . When students think of firsts they tend to laugh and cry. People get overwhelmed by the joy of their firsts. Once students' high school years are complete, people will remember more of their firsts and will appreciate more of life and the people that are in it. . .. w Left: .

Through all of this, do the cameras really do their job?! Schools have been under heavy watch since the Columbine shootings. Schools now have cameras and some even have metal detectors. The inside of the schools may be safe but what about the parking lots? Are the student's cars safe? To students, it seemed that the crime rate increased in the parking lot. On just one day, two students' windows were broken out of their vehicles. "There have been windows and stereos stolen this year but surprisingly the crime rate in the parking lot has decreased from last year," Vice Principal Mike Johnson said. "The cameras have played a big role in decreasing the crime." But were the cameras really doing that great of a job? "I don't think the cameras have really been that great. Sure they monitor us but I see so many kids in the parking lot that don't even go here and try starting fights with the students here," sophomore Brett Dofner said. "My friend's car windows were broken out after school and the camera was suppose to move around to watch the whole parking lot but it was stuck in one spot. So now she has no idea who did it and has to pay $134 to replace the window." Senior Niki Krueger said, "I remember when my stereo got stolen out of my car and we didn't have cameras then so we couldn't catch the people who did it. I think the cameras do keep us safe but a few of my friends' cars have been vandalized and the cameras caught Terrence Huit Cordy Humphrey Nicholas Hunt Katherine Hunter Anita Jackson August Jantzon Rachel Jastorff Shane Jensen Jonathan Jeter Desiree Johnson Joshua Johnson Joseph Jones Jill Kammrad Donni Kates Kody Kellar Jordan Kermoade Erin Kuhl Phillip Lanegan Dean Lantz Rebecca Larsen David Lauver Andrew Lenihan Jessica Leytham Roderic Losteiner 1 32 Sophomores nothing." So the cameras are a double whammy for some students, they only catch some of the crimes not all of them. What the cameras don't catch, the students do. "The students this year have been doing a great job at tell ing us if there is a problem or someone is in the parking lot and they are not suppose to be," Mr. Johnson said. Krueger never actually saw her friend's car get broken into, but found evidence. "I found my friend's stereo laying on the ground and at the time I didn't know it was his until he called me and told me his stereo was stolen that day. I guess the thief got scared and threw it on the ground," she said. Since the installation of the cameras, the crime in the parking lot has decreased even though many students feel the cameras don't do their job. "I'm glad we have cameras and I bet they have helped decrease the crimes but everything has flaws. There are some things the camera won't catch," Krueger said. Some students have mixed feelings about the cameras but they can agree on one thing, the parking lot would be less safe without them. "There's no gate in the parking lot so there are dangers but that's what the camera is for," Mr. Johnson said. Left ..

Some are more difficult than others. They have to adapt to the food, friends and a whole new family. While most Americans wake up every morning and do the same thing , others are still trying to adapt to what will be there every day routine for about a year. This year as well as many years in the past, foreign exchange students tried to adapt to the differences between the lives of Americans and theirs. Anja Kielkopf was a junior. Anja was from Germany. She lived with Thomas and Paula Houvenagle. She adapted to the differences fa rely easy but she could not help but miss certain things about Germany. Who wouldn't miss their home land? New friends , different foods , and a brand new family! "I miss my friends and food ," Kielkopf said. She added that they do have fast food but they rarely eat it. However, Anja doesn't just think about the things she misses. She also stated that there were good things about America . For instance, she made the statement that the people are very nice. Haifa Saleh was a sophomore from Jordan. Salehenjoyed her time her and she planed on playing basketball and do well in school. When coming to America she expected the classes to be more difficult. She spent her spare time hanging out with friends , playing sports, and studying her class materials. She is lived with Pete and Margaret Abshier. The Abshier's made sure Saleh had fun . Over the summer they went to Adventureland and The Mall of America. They also went to Texas so 1 34 Sophomores Laura Miller Emily Miner Cameron Misner Jared Monahan Terry Moore Curtis Moreno Sean Neal Jessica Neighbors Danielle Olson Trisha Ondracek Charis Oswald Falisha Owens Joshua Parker Jared Patterson Sarah Paulsen Tabetha Pauly Heather Pedersen Elizabeth Perez she could meet their kids. "I thought school was going to be more of a challenge. It is difficult, but it is also fun ," Saleh said. Firnas Boutros lived with Doug and Marilyn Heider and was from Iraq. While at Tee Jay he planned on participating on the soccer team and on the swimming team. The transition wasn 't that easy for Boutros. He could not tell his friends that he was coming to America because Americans were the ones attacking their land. "I couldn't tell my friends I was coming to America. They would hate me because they hate America," he said. Even though the transition may not have been easy, it was a lot more peaceful. Firnas came to America being used to being able to see the fighting. He could see the jets fly right over his house. Now, he is getting use to the quiet and peacefulness. Victor Abu-Latifeh's transition was a peaceful one as well. Abu-Latifeh was from Palestine. He enjoyed participating in numerous activities.

Many students say its their teachers that are their role models, while others say its their coaches that make them the athlete they are. As children grow up, they tend to look up to someone, whether it's a family member, friend, teacher, coach, or even a superhero like Superman or Batman. "My idol is coach Muehlig because he helped me to succeed in sports. He's always there for me, his students, and athletes," junior Mark James said. "He's an all-around great person." Parents are common heroes for children when they are growing up. Children are around their parents so much that they tend to look up to them especially in the younger years before a child goes off to school. "I look up to my mom because she is great. She has helped me whenever I had a problem and has always been there for me," senior Kendra Banderas said. Math teacher Pat Nepple's heroes were his parents. "They taught me right from wrong, they raised me to be a good person. I really admire them for that," he said. Many athletes look up to professional athletes for inspiration or strength. "I look up to the USA's pitcher because she is an amazing player. I wish I could play like her, have her leadership and skill," sophomore Sara Slobodnik said. Teachers are heroes in most students eyes. They teach students valuable lessons and help the students become the person they will be later in life. 136 Sophomores Melissa Robinson Nicholas Robinson Amanda Romick Thomas Ross Amanda Rounds Amanda Ruckman Charl ie Ruckman Tami Ruckman Colby Rueschenberg Michelle Rueth Kiersten Ruff Sean Sahl Haifa Saleh Bradley Samuelson Nancy Saracay Nathan Schanuth Nicholas Sellers Candice Shaffer "Nepple is my favorite teacher and I look up to him. He always helps me and I have learned a lot from him. He's a great guy," Banderas said. So how does a hero or idol respond to hearing these praises? "It makes me feel good to hear that the students view me as an idol or a hero," Mr. Nepple said. James said that he never had Mr. Muehlig as a teacher but, "a few of my friends have and they tell me he is a great teacher and they look up to him." Yet sometimes being an idol or hero has a little too much pressure. "It's nice to hear that I'm someone's idol but if you're someone's idol or hero, you have to live on a pedestal and hope you do things that they like. Sure, I had heroes in high school like my teachers and coaches but they fell off those pedestals because I saw them as humans just like me," Muehlig said. "I have good and bad traits just like everyone else." An idol or hero are humans just like anyone else but to certain people, they look immortal and great. They look like someone they want to be like. So does that mean people need an idol or hero and mold their life to be just like them? No, it means there are so many people in the world but everyone is unique because of their own style. Sure, they can try to be like someone but they shouldn't try to change and be just like the idol or hero. Left. Junior Nick Boos puts his little brother, freshman Ben Boos, in a headlock.

For instance cell phones, computers, and even friends. Walking down the street, there's not one person who is not talking on a cell phone. But what if magically all those little things people take for granted, the little things everyone can't live without, were gone? At least once in everyone's life, they had to walk somewhere, whether it's to a friend's house or to school. For some students they value their car more than anything else. Just a quick simple five minute drive anywhere rather then a 15 minute walk. "I value my car more than anything, I don't think I could survive without my car," junior Nikki Bockert said. Having one's own car provides that simple freedom of not having to bum a ride somewhere or being dropped off by a parent. This also eliminates the embarassment along with not having a car. One thing everyone can't live without is money. "I love money, I just don't like having to work for it. It would be better if it were just given to me," junior Chris Duncan said. Without money, people wouldn't be able to buy the things they want and need. Music, clothes, or just going out costs students a lot of money. Another thing everyone has that is taken for granted are cell phones. How easy it is to make a simple call when ever someone wants to or when its an emergency, or to just mess around during 138 Sophomores Aja Stites Austin Stites Bret Strong Ashley Sublet Jennifer Swatek Tiffanie Synacek Kevin Tholen Ashley Thomas Matthew Thomas Makala Thompson Matthew Thompson Morgan Thompson Tylur Thompson Jenna Tietz Michael Tilley Jerrica Tillman David Topolski Brittany Turpen class and have some fun. "I love my cell phone, I can just mess with it whenever I get bored, plus my friends can call me or I can call them when I want," sophomore Brittany Hiers said. For some students, they value candy or pop as something they cant live without. Those little, sweet deletable sugars that everyone loves. "Mountain Dew, I couldn't live without it, it gets me through the day," senior Christy Childers said. For some students they can't put a price on family, friends, or even pets. Some things that are needed and cant be replaced such as those things. "My friends, I hate not being with my friends and not doing something fun , it just gets boring without them," freshman Ashlea Christensen said. All of those very important things that no one can put a price on, are things that people value more than any object or possession in the world. So enjoy the blessings of life, you may not always have them. All in all everyone has something that they don't relize how important and valued it is to them. But what if those most priceless possesions were gone forever. What would life be like, scary to think about. So don't take things for granted, value them like there's no tomorrow. Left.

Whether it is just trying to kick a friend jokingly or even during practice for a sport. The injuries can be very dangerous in some cases. Casts, braces, splints, and wrappings are things that people have to go though when they get hurt. If a person is active in sports then an injury can be really hard on them and their team. "I felt like I was letting my team down," freshman Dustin Congdon said. The injuries hopefully get better but in some cases they get worse. "I was so mad when I went back to the doctor to get my release and found out that I had a fractured vertebrate," Congdon said. "I wasn't even able to finish out the year for football." There are many causes of injuries, however nearly one-third of all injuries in ones childhood are sport related and are mostly the kinds of injuries that you hear about. More than 775,00 children are treated in hospital emergency rooms for sports-related injuries each year. Surprisingly enough, 62 percent of those injuries happen during practice. "I was hurt during a tackling practice," Congdon said, "I'm happy it wasn't during a game because I don't like not finishing games." The most dangerous type of injuries that anyone can have would be a traumatic brain injury. 21 percent of all traumatic brain injuries occur during sports and recreational activities. However, next to a minor concussion there hasn't been any major injuries at school. Before the homecoming assembly there was a speaker from Think First, Traumatic Injuries Prevention Strategies. The message was to tell people to wear their seat belts, but they also spoke about Eric Wildrick Justin Williams Zachary Williams Corey Wilson Marlene Wilson Regina Wilson Jacob Witzke Jessena Wright Rikki Wright Jessica Ziegler 140 Sophomores how high school sports are a major contributor to traumatic injuries. Being in any kind of sport can be dangerous. Sports and recreational activities are not the only ways that teenagers can be injured . "I broke my leg trying to kick my friend because he kept bothering me," senior Jean Carlson said. Some of the silliest things such as shutting your hand in a car door can really injure a person. "I remember when I was five and shut my thumb in my car door," Congdon said, 'The door was stuck, my parents tried for what seemed like forever to try and open it. When I finally got free and went to the hospital I found out that I had broken it in three different places." Most injuries turn out to be okay. "My thumb is fine and after all my physical therapy my back will be good as new," Congdon said. The injuries heal quickly and usually there are no noticeable effects. Do what the doctor says and the bones will heal fine. "After a couple of weeks my leg was out of the boot," Carlson said . Playing around with friends, just walking through the hall and stepping wrong, or even not getting your hand out of the way can cause some serious damage. Luckily enough none of these injuries were life threatening and easily fixed . Be careful when playing any kind of sports and think before acting.

Injuries 141 by Matt Clark OCD Many students in this school have a lot different excuses, but which one works the best? How far will students go to get themselves another day to work on an assignment. My dog ate it. I left it in my car. Sound familiar to a lot of people? People use some pretty dumb, unbelievable excuses to get out of doing just about anything. The thing that makes it even more unbelievable is they get out of doing it and have more time to work on it. Some students can think of some good excuses, but you sti ll have the students that use the same old excuse that your mom or dad might have used when they were in high school. The most common excuse found in the school was, I left it in my car. Welding teacher Bruce Hathaway said, "I think the funniest excuse I have ever heard was about three years ago. The student showed up to class 20 minutes after the bell rang, when I asked him why he was so late he said, I was confused. May I remind you it was in the middle of December, well into the school year." Hathaway said," I've heard I had car problems and couldn't do it, I just think to myself what does having car problems have to do with anything. I've also seen students walking around in the hallways during my class, and come back the next day with an excused absence. I always wondered how that worked." But, the best excuses come from those who think of it as a form of art. Junior Andy Bailey said, "The one I use most is when Victor Abu-Latifeh Jared Adkins Mark Arnold Mandi Atkinson Garrett Avey Andrew Bailey Joshua Bain Kendra Banderas Michael Barrett Kai Bartholomew Kyle Bartholomew Alan Bates Andrew Bates Katie Beaver David Benegas Stacy Bettis Darren Billam Patrick Billam Jennifer Birkholtz Brent Bocker! Nichole Bocker! Justin Boettger Nicholas Boos Melissa Booton 142 Juniors it's spring, and I tell the teacher it's too hot in here and I can't work, but my favorite is my little sister colored all over it." Most students think that they can use excuses when it comes to having a substitute to get out of doing the work that their teacher had planned for them. "The best excuse I had ever come up with was, one day I had a substitute, and I told her I had to go to the library to work on my powerpoint on the biometric complexity of the percentage rate of error with fingerprinting," said Bailey. "When I told her that I thought she would just laugh at me and make me go sit down, but she let me go and told me to be back before the bell rang ." Some students have very creative ones. Junior Ashley Hayward said, "I tell the teacher that when I take stuff home I can never get it done because I am having a very hard time at home, fighting with my parents, though I'm really not." Junior Courtney Neumann said, "My mom got my grades and I had an F in biology. When asked why I had such a low grade I told her I did poorly on a test that was worth half of my grade, but the truth was that the test was only worth 10 percent of my grade and didn't bring me down that much," Neumann said . Neumann also gave up her most prized excuse for when school calls and says she's been late or tardy. "They have simply just made a mistake. I went to all my classes and got there on time. You can even call my teachers and ask them ," Neumann said. Left. Freshman Jake Cudd tries to explain himself to Mr. Schick in reading class. Photo by Sarah Fredrickson. Below.

Some student starve themselves thinking they'll lose weight, but only gain more. Doing it safely includes physical fitness and eating healthy. Atkins, Low Carbs, Slim-fast, Herbalife are all diets everyone's heard of, but does anybody really use them in the right way? Or do they really even work? When people discover they are heavier than they want to be, they have a natural instinct to eat less food . They might skip lunch or eat only a tiny amount of dinner in the hope that if we eat less our body wil l burn off some of its fat, but that's not necessarily true. Eating less actually makes it more difficult to lose weight. "Losing weight is not something one can do overnight. A carefully planned weight loss program requires common sense and certain gu idelines ," Weight Watchers associate Katie Leiss said . "Unfortunately, there's a lot of misinformation floating around and lots of desperate people are easily duped and ripped off." Every day one can open a magazine or newspaper and see advertisements touting some new product, pill or patch that will take excess weight off quickly. Everyone seems to be looking for that "magic" weight loss pill. More than half of the population of teenagers are trying to lose weight, spending billions of dollars every year on diet programs and products. "The advertisements of Subway and how Jared lost all of his weight really made me think, if I would eat nothing but Subway I'd lose a couple pounds," junior Tasha Walker said . "But it just got way Marc Dahl Jessica Davis Maria Deleon Erik Dewolf Lacie Dietl Jacob Downey Nicole Drumheller Christopher Duncan Devon Duncan Drew Dunkelberger Maxwell Edmonds Erik Elgan Kent Evans Crystal Falanga Justin Fielder Arthur Finley Ricky Fitzsimmons Samantha Flowers Jessica Flynn Jalayna Franks Gary Gahm Terrence Gannon Thomas Garrean Aaron Gartin 144 People too expensive." Often they do lose some weight, but if you check with the same people five years later, you will find that nearly all have regained whatever weight they lost. Being seriously overweight and particularly obesity can develop into a number of disease and serious health problems, and it is now a known fact that when caloric intake is excessive, some of the excess frequently is saturated fat. The myth is that people get heavy by eating too many calories. Calories are a consideration it's true, but overall they are not the cause of obesity. "If calories alone were the reason we become overweight, we should all be thin, but we aren't,'' said junior Justin Rose. "It's a known fact that without exercising people often get fatter with time." Although your weight may initially drop while dieting, such weight loss consists mostly of water and muscle. When the weight returns, it comes back as fat. To avoid getting fatter over time, increasing metabolism by exercising regularly. "Selecting an exercise routine that you are comfortable with and remember that walking is one of the best and easiest exercises for strengthening your bones controlling your weight and toning your muscles,'' said Rose. By keeping a positive attitude and being happy with any change that you make, no matter how small, it's all worth what healthy choices you make.

It's how teenagers look at it, is the problem. Do you believe puppy love is real love? Is teenage love overrated? Puppy love, that's what being a teenager is all about. Being so young , and not knowing what else is out there can make teens develop tunnel vision. Tunnel vision makes teens believe they are "in love" and there could never be anyone else. " Really it is not true love, teenagers experience love for the first time and think it's true love, but it really is not," teacher Dan Strutzenberg said. Most people in junior high and high school aren't really looking for someone to be in love with. "I was just looking for the hottest girl when I was in high school, I didn't care what her personality was like," Mr. Strutzenberg said. Teenagers don't really notice how much life lies in front of them. Because of the tunnel vision effect, most teens do not know how to deal with their first serious relationship break up. "Teenage love is overrated, you can love someone, but people take it too seriously, you are only in high school, get over it," senior Dane Christensen said. Some teens believe after losing their "first true love" that life is over. Many decide to try to commit suicide or develop bad habits like drugs and alcohol. Teens do not see that after a break up many new experiences are coming their way. There are always good and bad points to make with first loves. "I think teen love can be refreshing and inspirational but at Dustin Jackson Sara Jackson Mark James Stephanie James Tammy Jasper Stephen Jensen Cody Johnson Sean Johnson Aaron Jones Regina Jones Jessica Kannedy Anja Kielkopf Sarah King Kelly Knutson Jennifer Koedam Nicole Kramer Alisha Kuhl Joshua Kuhl Barbara Lambirth Micheal Langford Jesse Lantz Cierra Laughlin Regina Lemanton Justin Levell 146 Juniors other times, I see teen love as comical and trivial ," freshman English teacher Brooke Bunten said . Being in love is much more than holding hands and being giddy when you are around someone. Love contains much more, and yet some teenagers do really love one another, many others are only fooled by puppy love. "I think puppy love is very special, its cute and makes teens feel all warm and fuzzy inside," P.E. teacher Nicole Vetter said. Some teens will do almost anything to keep the person a part of their life. Love is very beautiful, but in a teenagers eyes it is 1 almost just the spotlight to walk around with someone clinging to their side, or the thought of people being losers if they do not have a girlfriend or boyfriend. That's not love. Love is much more and to some people, teenagers are way 1 to young to be involved in serious relationships or experiencing "real" love. "Love contains time, heart, and dedication to someone and teens these days just don't have patience for that, its not love, it's puppy love," freshman teacher Pam Crawford said . Most teens don't even know what love is until they are older. Teens may have been in relationships before but it is not love. No matter if puppy love last forever or two weeks, most teenagers will experience this life lesson and they wi ll experience the good and bad but that's what love is all about. Left.

Every one has that special friend they can go to in a time of need, someone to talk to when no one else is around, or the one that makes them happy. True friendship is a must to most students. What are friends? Friends are together through thick and thin. Friends are there for one another time and time again. Friends are people who help others to stay strong when their days have grown tired and long. Friends are people you can count on even if that friend was someone you made fun of. Friends are the ones who help each other at the drop of the dime, and it's said friends are hard to fi nd. Friends do things others would never understand. "A friend is someone who knows the song of your heart and can si ng it back to you when you forget the words ," senior Rochelle Larsen said. Many students have their favorite activities to do with their friends, favorite places to go, favorite songs to sing, or even just the small things as a favorite saying. "My favorite thing to do with my friends is to just go out and have fun. To not be afraid to make fools of each other. I like to do anything, as long as we are together and have fun ," senior Cassie Chase said. "Lean on me, when you're not strong, and I'll be your friend , I'll help you carry on, for it won't be long, 'til I'm gonna' need, somebody to lean on," this well known song, Lean On Me by Al Jerreau, can be played over and over again and no one would ever get tired of it. This song signifies what a true friends is, someone to go to when something is wrong. There are numerous songs out there about Michael Moore Staci Morrison Stephan Mutchler Amber Myers Cody Neighbors Ashtyn Neill Jessica Nelson Jennifer Neu Courtney Neumann Benjamin Nixon Brice O'Connell Anthony Oliva Rachel Olmstead Ole Olsen Ligia Orellana Nina Osbahr Emily Palandri Nicholas Pech Samantha Petty Amanda Pierce Amber Pike Calvin Pitcher Wyatt Pitt Joseph Pogge 148 People friends but this is a favorite. Organizations and sports help students become united and build that special bond . When a student is in sports they spend at least 25 hours a week with the same group of people, they can't help but become friends with them. Organizations such as ASTRA or DECA take time out and volunteer together to help other people. Some friendships don't always last. Maybe someone moved away, stopped doing an activity, or just started hanging out with different people. Students go through countless friend s throughout their lives, but there are always those special people that wi ll always be there for them. "I will always be there for all of my old and new friends no matter what happens in the future. Through thick and thin my friends will always be there for me, whether I've known them for 11 years or just a few, I know we will always be friends ," senior Kevin Marley said. Whatever someone's definition of a friend is, everyone has them. It could be a next door neighbor, brother or sister. parents , or just someone a person met at school. When someone meets that special friend , they shoul d keep them close. Be sure to never forget the memories, the past experiences. And as the song goes, "for it won't be long, 'til I'm gonna' need somebody, to lean on." Left. Friendships are even present with the COBRA parents as they play in the dodge ball tournament.

If so, not the only one that's had an embarrassing moment. Have you ever done something or been around someone that has said or done something dumb or stupid and you wish you could take that embarrassing moment away? If so, you're not the only one that feels that way, or the only one that has an embarrassing moment they wish no one would remember. Almost everyone can think of one time or another when they have done something that has embarrassed them , and they wish that no one saw what they did or what they said. Some people get embarrassed by what other people said or did. "One time I was talking to a girl and I had been talking to her for a while and I didn't know her name and my friends came up behind me and asked me what my new friend 's name was and I couldn't say anything because I didn't know her," junior Tom Garrean said. Some students faces will turn bright red or they will try and act all cool in front of their friends when they do something that embarrassed them. "One time we were at a volleyball tournament and we went to eat lunch, and something happened and I had to stay back to take score for another game. When I was done with that, I went to find the rest of the team and when I went outside I saw a little picnic basket and I thought that was what we brought to eat, because there were orange and black plates ," senior Stephanie Smith said. "I got everything that I wanted to eat. When Tristan Simpson Dustin Skudler Lindsay Smith Alyssa Snell Brian Snodgrass Thomas Stastny MacHelle Stopak Angelika Stout John Stowell Nichol Sullivan Rebecca Sullivan Corey Tabler Rebecca Tackett Christopher Tamayo Curtis Tate Derek Taylor Justin Teague Josh Thomas Tiffany Thomas Natalie Toman Anthony Turner Jessica Turpen Courtney Uhl Jacob Vanbibber 150 Juniors I went to sit down the rest of the team walked up and asked me what I was doing, and I said I was eating lunch and they just started to laugh at me. It turns out that, that wasn't our lunch." Many different things can embarrass different people. Some people get embarrassed if they say the wrong word when they are talking to friends , or if they fall while walking up the stairs at school. On the other hand , it may take a lot for someone to get embarrassed. Some people don't let the little things get to them . "I have never done anything that has embarrassed me that much, I just let the little things fly by me and not get mad otherwise I would be mad a lot," senior Christy Childers said. "I think it's funny when someone makes fools of themselves, but then they try to act like it doesn't bother them and make it into a joke. I don't know if they realize they are just making it worse on them ," sophomore Kayla Fay said. When people say embarrassing things, they might make sure next time they think a little harder about what they might say or what they might do and how they will say it or do it the next time. " I always make sure I look at what I'm doing now," Smith said. Sometimes people just need to laugh at what they did and not get mad . They need to realize that everyone has had embarrassing moments some are just a little bit funnier than others are, and depending on the person they just might laugh right along with you . Left.

T re a lot of different things to do, depending on what someone enjoys. But sometimes things aren't always as fun as others. Twenty five years ago teenagers spent their weekends very differently than modern day teenagers. Why? Because now there is so much more to do. "When I was in high school, on a Saturday afternoon, the girls would go shopping in downtown Omaha, because that's where all the cool places were to go. If it was nice out, we would go to Peony Park to swim," English teacher Angela Ankenbauer said. There are also things that people still do just like teens did way back when. A modern day teenager's weekend may consist of working, practicing for a sport, going to a sporting event, like a Lancer's hockey game, going to a party, or just hanging out with a group of friends. There are many different things that are done for fun. Going bowling or dancing are two favorites. Movies are a big thing to do on weekends also. If most high school students had to pick their favorite thing to do on the weekends, it would be sleep, because during the school week, that is what is lacked most. "Sleeping is the most interesting part of my weekend," senior Mike Neville said. For some teenagers, when a sport is in season, they have to get up early on a Saturday morning for practice and work extremely hard. "My Saturdays usually start with a practice for whatever sport is in season and then I go home and sleep," sophomore Matt 152 Juniors Renshaw said. Having practice in the morning usually makes someone tired the rest of the day and makes not want to do anything Saturday night unless they get some sleep after practice. Working is a big part of a teenager's weekend. Making money consists of working long hours on the weekends, and that may be a priority for some. "I work at Lighting Bowl at nights and during the day I play sports or go hang out at one of my friend's house," sophomore Andy Gray said. A lot of the time, what teenagers do on the weekend depends on the weather. When it's hot out, people like to be outside. When it's cold, people like to stay inside. "When it's nice outside, I go out riding my four-wheeler, and the rest of the time I sleep," sophomore Dean Lantz said. There are many things that would not be approved of by parents that some teenagers do on weekends. For instance, going to a party. The majority of the time, there is alcohol present at the party, meaning underage drinking. More teenagers than what i believed have attended a party that has drinking there. More or less, there are many things that high school students do to spend their time on weekends. Whether it's something good and keeps them out of trouble or if it's something that wouldn't be approved of, it's their choice to make the smart decision. Left.

LaStin'il Impression~ By Brandy Pierson Being a senior has its advantages and disadvantages. One advantage is being one step closer to freedom , while a disadvantage is also being one step closer to freedom. No matter which way you look at it, being a senior is harder than any other grade level. You only have nine months of school to hang out with friends you might never see again. Going to a pep assembly, taking the ACT, writing your term paper, and cramming in a late night of studying are impressions that you will always remember. Seniors are constantly advised to cherish these few years because they are the best years of their life, but sometimes those words are so repetitive that seniors blow them off. Those words will have a new meaning when there are only a few months left in their high school career. Seniors start to seek out a new life such as where to go to college, where to live, where to work, and the hardest decision that needs to be made is which major. Choosing a major is stressful. It's not fair to tell an 18 year old they have to make a decision that will affect the rest of their life and they must stick with this decision. No matter which path a senior takes, they are wished the best of luck. Right. Jenny Pettit talks to one of the representatives about getting a new tassel. Photo by Brandy Pierson. Far Right.

WhyS Small? By Kristina Congdon With only 170 seniors graduating in May, the 2005 senior class was one of the smallest classes in years. One of the major reasons for such a small class was due to the dropout rate. "Dropout rates are getting ridiculous," senior counselor Nancy Hale said, "either people don't come to school or they come and just don't do the work." Being a part of such a small class affects those seniors. "I'm proud of all the students who stuck with it and didn't give up," senior Alex Mullins said, "even though our class is small it makes us all closer to each other." The students that continued to stay in school worked hard and are proud to be where they are. "Although it's unfortunate, the students in our community that want to be successful are here," senior John Crummer said, "we 156Senlors seniof . e ta\\<.S to pnoto \-13)'1"'1 n\al"'S· . \3fl'an t ~uture ,.. senior '-' \e a'oou "bo'l/e· c)' r•a I" \Of N31"' counse Gnaclef. 'o)' p..nclrea should focus on those 170 or so students and praise them for persevering." That popular word 'diploma' haunts people; not only in school but also people in the world. "It doesn't matter whether or not you want to be a mechanic, lawyer, or a clerk at McDonald's, without a high school diploma you will make less money than someone with a diploma," Crummer said, "someone that is without a high school diploma also eliminates any possibility of advancement in an organization." A lot of people get easily distracted from school and then decide to dropout. "Definitely focus on school, a lot of people get caught up in their personal lives, when you're thinking about dropping out, think about where you're going to be in 10 years," Mullins said. Left. With the dropout rates bei ng so high , classes for se niors were especially small with many empty desks. Photo by Andrea Gnader. 3a,.ed Colby .Adkins Kend .. aM. Bande,.as "Rock O r.

For the class of 2005, the school board was the mad scientist, focus and 48 credits the idea, and the class of '05 were the guinea pigs in this educational experiment. Focus class began freshman year with students starting portfolios, and continued through the sophomore year where students participated in mock interviews. Junior year students had mostly completed all the requirements for focus and just did simple college surveys about where they planned on going and what they planned to study. "I think focus is good because it helps prepare students for the real world and I think that is good, they don't go out there with no knowledge," English teacher Jane Howard 158 Seniors said. Focus took place only on Monday's, right after second period. In addition to having Focus on Monday, students started school at 9:30 because of Staff Development meetings. Student also had to complete a CAP folder during junior year. Another change for the class of 2005 was the required credits. Seniors had to have 48 credits to graduate. Unlike the class of 2004 and before that, homeroom wasn't counted as a credit, but not with focus, "I think it stinks that they picked my class to do it, I mean it's not bad for me because I already have all my credits I need," senior Jon Turnbeaugh said. In this educational experiment, the guinea pig class will be leaving, and the class of 2005 will have been the first through the new requirements. Left.

Focus Class 1 59 Bew a By Brandy Pierson It was a cool night on Sept. 10 when most of the student body was at an away football game, and four senior girls thought it was a great night to pull their senior prank. The football team lost badly so the girls thought it was up to them to cheer up the student body when they got home. They decided to decorate their cars with toilet paper, colorful signs and feminine products. "We made the signs at home and we went to Walgreens for supplies and headed over to the parking lot," one prankster said. After a quick stop for supplies, the girls started to decorate the cars. While they were decorating, cars drove by and watched or kept circling the block to see who the pranksters were. The girls hid under cars and ran out of sight. They decorated close to all the cars until a van became brave and chased the girls out 160Senlors e ~ tne was on a .

The girls knew they couldn't hide so they decided to run for it. "I've never run so fast in my life. It felt like I was on an episode of COPS," the prankster said. As the girls fled, they threw their supplies to the ground or in the air and jumped into their friend's getaway car. "As soon as we jumped in the car and drove off, the van still followed us for a few blocks. After we calmed down, we were so excited about what we had just done," another prankster said. The girls managed to get out of the parking lot without being seen. Later that night when the student body returned to the parking lot and saw their cars, talk soon arose about who did it. Only a few people know who pulled the senior prank of 2005. Many seniors seemed to have great ideas for other senior pranks, but none came to fruition. Left.

Pranks 161 The Usu a By Drew Dunkelberger and Cyndi Reelfs High school is known as one of the most memorable times of many students' lives. With the traditions held every year, they always seem to get better than the year before. One of the biggest traditions for seniors is Senior Skip Day. Senior Skip Day was decided almost on a whim. Everyone agreed on March 24. This left the seniors with a sixday vacation for spring break. "My favorite tradition for us seniors would be Senior Skip Day, because it's a day for seniors to get out and re lax and the underclassmen aren 't out either," senior James Smith said. "On Senior Skip Day, I just got together with friends for the whole day and sat around and think about the memories we had in high school," senior Jon Turnbeaugh said. Whether seniors used their free day to 162Senlors have outings or just lay back, they found a way to spend Senior Skip Day away from school and with their friends. Another thing that seniors have to do every year is term papers. Most had plenty of time to prepare but some waited until the last minute to work on them. "I was in L.A. when the papers were due so I had to have mine done a week before everyone else," senior Ellie Oswald said, "I felt a lot better once I got it done, I wasn't as stressed out as I was before." Some were lucky and didn't have to write a term paper, but instead they had to write papers once a week. No matter what year it is, there are a few things that always stick to the senior class no matter what. Senior Skip Day and term papers are just a couple of the things that seniors had to look forward to. Left.

Finally people might address them as an adult. No more curfew, tattoos are allowed, and seniors are their own guardians. They are running with the big boys now. But is turning 18 really all that it is cracked up to be? It is true that now, one has more privileges, but with privileges comes responsibility, and no one likes to be responsible. Every teenager dreams of the day when their parents can no longer treat them as a child. But does that really happen? Senior Jack Pierce doesn't think so. Pierce said that his parents do not treat him any differently now than before he turned 18. Senior Michaela Brannan said that her parents already treated her as an adult, and that there is really no change. According to Pierce and Brannan , turning 18 was just 164 Senlors turning another year older. Being able to vote, another highlight to being of legal age. Students that are 18 years of age are finally able to have a voice in their country. Turning 18 also means being able to enlist in the Army or join the Marines, Air Force, etc. Many students here chose this option for their futures. These are just society's measure of the importance of turning 18. What did the students personally look forward to when turning 18? "Becoming an adult you are more responsible for your own actions and the actions of people younger than you," senior Craig Gates said. All in all the measure of importance of turning 18 is really up to the individual and what they want to do with their lives. Left.

They share the good memories, but also the bad. Seniors realized what the real world is like and what their future may bring them. The graduating seniors relived their past memories of what they will miss when they are gone. "I am going to miss all of my friends because some of us have been together since kindergarten," senior Jennifer Morrison said. Some seniors will miss their friends , teachers and even classes, but most of all sports. "I will miss golf the most because of the competition involved," senior Andrue Flatt said. After high school many seniors planned t~Se1iiur on going to college and majoring in a certain field . There are many different occupations out there, so that was a hard choice for some to make. "I plan on going to USO and majoring in accounting," Morrison said. Seniors also made many memories within the high school walls. Meeting new friends and building those bonds helped high school go by faster. "The past four years have reall y changed my life, I have made many new friends and I've had the time of my life. I can't wait until we all graduate and hang out this summer and also our years to come while we're in college," senior Ellie Oswald said. Memories of the seniors past years won't be forgotten but now they say goodbye to the past and hello to the future . Left.

" Past & Future 167 Almos By Cyndi Reelfs With the school year coming to an end seniors have the ultimate challenge of actually coming to school and doing their homework and get it done on time. There's also little time to get everything done for the next year it is off to college or other big plans seniors may have. Even though some parents don't care what their son or daughter does, most seniors are smart enough to know what is right and wrong. "After a long night of Halo 2, it's hard to get motivated enough to come to school," senior Jake Smith said. Not only do seniors have to worry about coming to school, but also getting college applications and scholarships done. There isn't a lot of time to have everything done so some give up and try not to worry about doing the hard work. 168 Seniors o and j n 1arna'1' ' 5 to c\<.ton. 0 r\n9 c1as snaun S\O ?u\efS au o\ Ree\\S.

Other people feel the effects of senioritis including teachers and administration. Some seniors stop turning in homework and give up on everything related to school. "The seniors tend to give up when 4th quarter comes around, they start slacking off and not turning in their homework, it's a waste of the year if they don't try," history teacher Kelly Boyle said. Attendance is another issue that comes along with senioritis. Some don't want to come to school anymore because they think there is no point. Hopefully, with the school year coming to an end, most seniors made it to graduation and have a bright future ahead of them full of more obstacles to come. Left.

Get all of your homework done. Don't be out too late! These words from parents are heard almost every day of students' lives. Hearing advice from parents and teachers can be very annoying. Some do listen while others choose to do what they want. Day after day it gets very old and students wish they would just leave them alone. Even though they do nag, they are right. Studying, keeping up the good grades, and getting to bed early actually do help for school. Going through high school can be a very demanding task. Just waking up in the morning can be difficult. Others have to manage sports, jobs, and all of the homework assigned from school. So how does one last through high school? 170Senlors ~e11ior cl ises" Gree\\ 3 \J ·11 c\3SS· \\'\eres3 115 0un 9 ner t:fi3f'J r 3c\\119 s i 3\(\3 te3C 3 oil \'\e or \'\ Gut\'\ . rsoll · Reoe\<.3 13r311cl'1 pie p\'\otO 'o'1 "Set your goals high and live up to all expectations. Take life seriously and expect to go through the hardest years of your life," senior Jessica Davis said. Managing time is a big issue for seniors. They have jobs, application deadlines, scholarships to fill out, and of course having a social life. With all of these things going on, how can someone get through it all? "School should be above anything else! I've had a job since I was 16 and I still manage to have good grades and have a social life," senior Rebecca O'Brien said. Obviously going through high school isn't all that bad. Keeping up good grades and managing time are the top two things to do while in school. Advice from these seniors should be useful to future students. Left: Senior counselor Nancy Hale advise s seni or Ang ela Thom as on her decis ions for co ll ege in the upcoming year.

Some people say that the one teacher they remember the most from high school is the teacher that pushed them to the limit. There are two teachers that have been doing that for almost 33 years and have decided to leave. These two teachers are Phsyical Education teacher John Kinsel and Marketing teacher Gary Bannik. Both of them have been teaching for 33 years and all that time at the same school. Even though they have a lot in common they also have a lot of differences. Kinsel has taught P.E. since he started teaching in 1972. "I like teaching because I like kids, and I went to this school so I think it is easier for me to relate to them ," Kinsel said. After Kinsel retires, he wants to look for another job. "I am retiring because I can and I figure I only have about 10 more good years left in me and I figure that I should try something other than teaching," Kinsel said. After Kinsel leaves it will not be the same but it is not the first time something like this has happened . Last year two P.E. teachers retired, Lavonne Pierson and Sharon Gary Bannick Janet Beckstead Chuck Black Jean Blue Kelly Boyle Frank Brickey Mark Brown Wanda Busse Shannon Cde baca Dale Cerny David Clark Ann Clinton Jay Conyers Debra Cook Pamella Crawford Debbie Dahlheimer Anne Deal Holly Demarque Amy Erwin Michael Forbes Greg Garth Patty Gillespie Deb Goodman Jerry Gray 172 Retirements Semler. "I will miss Mr. Kinsel because he has been a good P.E. teacher and he has been fun to be around," sophomore Amy Robinson said. Another teacher that will be missed is Gary Bannick. He is the Marketing teacher and the DECA sponsor. "I decided to be a teacher because I like helping other people especially kids," Mr. Bannick said. Even though Mr. Bannick likes teaching he is still retiring. "I am retiring because I want to be able to get a new job, I need some change in my life," Mr. Bannick said. When Mr. Ban nick leaves there will have to be another marketing teacher and someone else will have to take over sponsoring DECA and running the BeeHive. "I think that Mr. Bannick is the greatest thing for the Marketing Department, and it will be impossible for the administration to replace him. He is a great motivator and his future students will be priviledged to get the chance to work with him," senior Jenny Pettit said. These two teachers have been here for so long that it will never be the same with out them . Everyone will miss Mr. Kinsel and Mr. Bannick and everyone wishes them well in the future. Left.

Students probably think that teachers go to teaching to a lot of softball games. seminars all summer long and think of ways to punish students, but "I spend a lot of time at the softball field in the summer," the truth is that teachers actually live normal lives during the summer.

Some of these impressions have been good while others may have been bad; any way you look at it, they have helped you grow into the person you are. Friends to teachers, classes to jobs, the year has been filled with ups and downs and anywhere in between. Friends come and go and throughout the year as you have probably learned. Your friends helped you with your homework, break ups, personal problems, and just to cheer up. These friendships may continue on into next year or they could be lost during the summer. Nothing is for sure in life and friendships are the same way. Not only do the seniors leave school but teachers do too. Some teachers will retire, go to a different school to teach or they could simply go out and find a new career. The teachers have taught us in the classroom and these teachings can be taken out of the classroom too. Not only teachers leave an impression but also coaches. Coaches leave for the same reasons as the teachers. They too are looked up to like the teachers. These impressions can never be replaced or forgotten. Right.

This book is our masterpiece. It is full of impressions from throughout the school year and these impressions will be remembered for years to come. There were many new faces added to the staff and they were great at meeting every deadline. They truly were determined to have a book they could be proud of as well as everyone who will read it. Thanks to everyone for putting in their unique style, responsibility to stay late to work, and their devotion to making this book a success. The new staff members were great at stepping up to their editor positions. They helped each other with stories and pictures. The returning staff members were great at showing the new staff the ropes. Overall, everyone worked together and I thank them all. Also, I would like to thank Mr. Schoening for helping the staff, as well as me. He has been a big help and he always made time for yearbook as well as newspaper. Without him some of us would still be trying to figure out how to run some of the computer programs. lot.B\ Conl~ One person I need to thank is Mrs. Goodman.
