During this brief interval the school has been molded into something which commands respect and admiration. A new school has much color and excitement. For us, it is an opportunity to idealize the kind of education that is essential to our future. What a challenge it is; but what benefits it will reap for us and for future generations! Certainly all of this is a very unique experience, but what is most important is that we are the developing assests of this new school. It will be our privilege to reminisce and appreciate the great role that we played in building the b~ckbone and setting the traditions of this education institution. Viewing these things in all its dimensions, we must realize our responsibility to accept and maintain these standards. So, in this, our first edition of DIMENSIONS, we make our attempt to set the pace for the coming years by showing that through our eyes the world of Saint Albert the Great Central Catholic High School is truly a great place. t" ND FACULT I I Q ' \ [ - HIS EXCELLENCY, THE MOST REVEREND GEORGE J. BISKUP, D. D. BISHOP OF THE DIOCESE OF DES MOINES 4 THE REVEREND DANIEL L. DELEHANT, PRINCIPAL A Message from Father Delehant Beginnings are often difficult for we do not have the experience of the past upon which to rely. However, the dimensions to which St. Albert High School has advanced in the few short years of its existence, shows that with cooperation and energetic work, those handicaps can be successfully overcome. I am sure that God will continue to bless the school with success so that its foundation will be firm and strong and capable of withstanding future attacks. 5 6 In Memoriam Robert A. Johnson, Jr. On November 18, 1966, Robert A, Jolmson, Jr., became the first student of Saint Albert High School to enter eternity. He left a family and a school whose affection and respect for him will endure in the memory throughout the years. Fifteen years is not a long life; yet it was destined to be a complete one for Robert. His earthly success was measured by his efforts as a student, by his efforts as a member of a family. His death was destined to be profound in its effect for his associates--the young to whom death seems so remote. May Robert's reminder of eternity be as enduring as our memory of him.

DELEHANT And for Dan that time for living was not long. Yet in that brief season, he began a search: he began to look into himself to discover just what kind of a person he was meant to be. Dan, like many of us, was a seeker. And perhaps he had still to fully understand that "No matter if you're born to play the king or pawn, for the line is thinly drawn 'tween joy and sorrow ••• you must be what you must be and face tomorrow." For us who are likewise on our quest, Dan should be a sign - a reminder. To those who seek, . to those who struggle in the darkness, Christ brings His light. Our strength, our courage, our hope of discovery comes from Him. "Seek and you shall find." 6 ND ELEHANT PRINCIPAL Father Paul Monahan, dean of boys, gives Sister Mary Catherine, dean of girls, the word. Mr. Patrick Ryan addresses one of his English classes.

Seniors can "now" laugh at the stunts and mistakes characterizing their underclassman years, and all the fun which was such a great part of their life at St. Albert. Crying can signify either sorrow or happiness. There is an aura of sadness about Senior year in the realization that this year brings to an end this phase of our life.

HIGH SCHOOL Council Bluffs, Iowa 3 4 b Foreword HIGH SCHOOL - the springboard for our development into mature, responsible persons - the leaders of tomorrow's world. The transition into adulthood is often a complicated, difficult, and even painful process. The expansion of our characters, minds, and bodies requires a determination on each individual's part. Even more important, it takes a dedication along with this determination to realize genuine success. Whether it be the athlete on the practice field, or the student in the classroom, it is their dedication to a goal that achieves for them a real and meaningful reward. In a sense, one might even say that it is through this dedication that we reach maturity, since by exercising it we recognize the importance of what it means to be and to act as an individual.

Junior quarterback Jerry Mortensen (19) finds a big hole in the opponent's defense. 36 This year, Coach Charles' team had a disappointing season, ending with a 4-5 record. But the season's outcome was deceiving since St. Albert faced an exceptionally tough schedule, which included several state powers. Also, many juniors were relied upon this year, but of course, they were provided with valuable experience from the rough season. This, plus a convincing 31-7 J. V. win over a small school power should strengthen hopes for a better season next ye ar. St. Albert's defense awaits the snap of the ball. ABOVE LEFT: SA defenders prepare to meet a sweep.

The record was deceptive in that many games were dropped by small margins. Coach John LaBonia counted on rotating hot-hands and a continuous hustling defense. Coach also felt that this season was utopia with the team progressing and climaxing at tournament time.

TI1is year's sophomore basketball team had a highly impressive season, winning 13 games in a row before suffering its first defeat. Fr. Monahan's cagers relied heavily on a strong defense and teamwork as well as clutch shooting to compile their 14-2 record.

Despite a lack of good floor-play, the team managed to work well together and at times displayed excellent teamwork in some of its close wins. Included in this would be the frosh's thrilling overtime victory over the previously undefeated city champion, Edison, which gave the city crown to them.

With the highest potential so far in the school's short history, this year's varsity wrestling team worked its way to a 10-2 dual record and did quite well in local tournament action. Coach Ken Petersen's grapplers had good strength in the various weights and showed high promise when the state tournament rolled around.

V. group came through with an impressive 7-2 dual record. Most of the weights have experienced grapplers returning while also contributing many to the future varsity roster. With the lower weights being the foundation of the Falcon team, Coach Ken Petersen, also being the head of J. V. wrestling, is relying on these young wrestlers to balance his team for next season. Having the ability and valuable experience, these J. V. matmen should have wrestling looking up in the following years. LEFT: Scott Ka llman works to drop his opponent .

Although they collected many points in the lower weights, the frosh wrestlers faltered in the heavier ones due to lack of size and so lost many matches in the late-going. Since it was the first year for most, concentration fell mainly on fundamentals, and the team was not able to keep up with the more experienced schools in the area. Despite this, however, there were several freshmen who could emerge as top varsity prospects and help out our future varsity wrestling. 49 Track ROW 1: L. Weidman, J. Sheeran, K. Mehsling , D.

This year's track team had another successful season, placing high in most of the area meets and attaining a second place finish at the state meet. Although Coach Charles' team declined in several events from the previous year due to graduation, improvements were made in other areas well enough to make this year's team potentially as strong as the last. The cindermen were again very strong in the relays, especially in the twomile relay which took first at the C. B. Relays. The 440 and 880 relays were also tough competition in the local meets. Even though most of the track team's strength was in the running events, the field also did well; and, as it was composed mostly of underclassmen, those events, as well as the running, should be very promising again next year. 50 Dave Johnson anchors the freshman 440 relay team. The mile-medley team, composed of Jim Walsh, Tom Turner, Darwin Kruse, and Ken Mehsling, took first at state.

St. Albert's golf team, coached by Ken Petersen, reached a successful 6-5 season even though it played against stem competition this year. With several players turning in low scores consistently, the team won many matches by ohe or two strokes. The team, composed mainly of underclassmen, fared well against many larger schools. With three lettermen and four sophomores returning, next year's team appears to be a form id able one. Girl's Tennis ROW 1: M. Hole ton, M. Ronk, M. LaMantia; ROW 2: J. Wanning , J. Shudak , M.

This season brought the group tough competition compared to the experie nce of the young team, but they developed good strength in both the singles and doubles and came a long way in skill. The outlook for te nnis as a growing sport at St. Albert is promising since only two players are graduating. Also, the team lost at district this year only to T. J. who we nt all the way to state. Watch out for tennis next year! Mary Ager and Marcia Burke swing their racke ts in a practice session. 53 54 Varsity Baseball ROW 1: R. Munch, Co-Captain P. Tedesco, W. Moran, J. Mann, M.

Third Baseman Dan Shudak fields a ground ball. This year's varsity baseball team had a respectable season, playing close to . 500 ball all year. Coach Wolever relied on many different players to produce victories for him and often varied his line-up, as his team was well-balanced in many areas. Power hitting and good fielding highlighted this year's club, which wound up producing several standout seniors and many developing underclassmen. The outfield was successfully replaced after losing its top members the year before, and the experienced infield worked well together as expected. The team turned out to be very im - pressive this baseball season as it came from a losing record and a low position in the league ranks to play tough ball in the closing games and end the year respectably.

Just as the varsity did, the second varsity baseball team also played near • 500 ball throughout the season. However, the record is misleading since the team lost many close games and also played against other schools' regular varsity teams many times. The going often got rough for the young ball club because of this, but the tough year provided good, potential ballplayers for next year's varsity team. Although not sparked by consistent hitting, the group managed to pull through with the hits when needed. Also, the team's defense came along well as the season progressed; and an eight-inning, error less ballgame highlighted its fielding display, giving Coach Wolever good reason to be hopeful for a successful season next year.

The speech presentation con - sisted of the contestants of various speech contests, featuring humorous declamation, interpretive prose, and duet acting . The Music presentation consisted of special se lections, feat uring the Sophomore choir on Saturday night and the Freshman choir on Sunday night. The Senior choir, dressed in formal attire, was highlighted at both pe rformance s. SOPHOMORE CHOIR FRESHMAN CHOIR 71 72 Les Musiques The Les Musiques, a special group consisting of eight boys and ten girls, went casual for SPA MU. The girls normally wearing navy blue dresses and the boys wearing gold blazers performed for private parties, Altar Societies, and had the privilege of performing at Club 64. The Christmas season proved to be the busiest for the Les Musiques with a performance nearly every night. Soph's decorate with ~~Flower Power" The mod flowers on the walls, the painted flowers on the windows, and the wild signs throughout the room were all part of the Sophomores' decorations. A highlight of this dance was the fact that it was turnabout and it gave the girls a chance to ask their favorite boy. 73 74 Religion at St. Albert's Re ligion is a n esse ntial part of any Saint Albe rt srnde nt 's life ; whethe r it be receiving com - munion on a Day of Re colle c - tion, understanding the facts about the financia l status of Catholic schools, or listening to a sermon about the problems of faith. Graduation A stepping stone in your life presents mixed emotions; TEARS when you think about not seeing your friends as much or maybe never again; SMILES when you think about how proud you are to have earned your diploma and to have finished your high school era; and SENTIMENT when you see the smiling, helping faces of your teachers and when you walk down the halls for the last time. 75 Class of '69 76 Graduates 77 78 Those fulfilling requirements which make them eligible for a high school diploma receive them.

The Falcons featured a strong inside game with Seniors Craig Kru - picka, Mike Murphy and Rich Wi se. The guard court featured Dave Henry, Steve Prichard , Matt Doran, and Junior Jim Duggan .

Green and gold day topped off the in-school events, where students put together as much green and gold as possible. The annual Homecoming pep rally was held on the Thursday night before the game. Highlights of the pep rally included the float competition, " Almost Anything Goes" contest, and the coronation of the queen. Despite strong competition in the float contest, the Fre sh man proved victorious in their interpretation of the theme " Falcon Journey."

P.A. C. E. program. The students, both boys and girls, earned five credits per year through the program. The Cosmetology class was taught at Stewarts Beauty College with eight girls from S.A. attending. There were also six Juniors and Seniors taking Child Care, This class gave students a chance to work with the children who attend nursery school at Iowa Western. For the boys there was Building Construction and Auto Mechanics. The Building Construction class, this year, put their talents to work constructing a home in the NorthEast section of Council Bluffs. The Mechanics Class, attending the course in the afternoon, numbered nine. These vocational classes were offered to the students at no cost, and gave them an opportunity to see what college would be like, and an idea of what career they might pursue. 51 Student Council continues leadership tradition The 1979-80 Student Council continued in their traditional role of service and leadership to the school and the community. The council under the moderation of Mr. Mark Skahil and Father Chiodo initiated many projects and encouraged student body participation. This year the Student Council divided into four committees in order to better serve the school in the areas of community service, spiritual development, activities, and building beautification. Student Council endeavors included Homecoming Week, Christmas decorating, Pride Week, and the St. Albert Festival. In addition, the Student Council was instrumental in the development of intramural basketball, an activity enjoyed by many students. 52 Opp. page (top) Student Council moderators Fr.

Not only are they faced with Magee, but also an ii/- tempered chef (Ann Petratis) and Fr. Drobney (Andy Steenson), a priest who plays Houdini in his spare time. The Ambassador's assistant, Kilroy (Dan Doyle) seems to be the Hollander's only hope.

On the 15th of November, St. Albert students from grades K-12 gathered at the high school to celebrate the feast day of our patron saint. Representatives from every class participated in the Mass, reading petitions, bringing offertory gifts to the altar, singing and reading the epistles and responsorial psalms. After the Mass the Future Falcons were divided into small groups with jr. and sr. students for hosts and hostesses. These people made sure their younger counter-parts were accommodated in the best way possible with sack lunches in the S.A. cafe and guided tours of the school. When lunch was finished, the primary and middle school students were taken back to their own schools. The school system gathering has become a favorite event of the young and old St. Albert students.

Serving as principal was Patricia Lackowski. Formerly principal at Catholic high schools in Nebraska and Wisconsin, she became the first woman to serve in this position at St. Albert. Believing that leadership is not just for the administration and faculty, she implemented ways for students to become more active in school government. Vice-principal for SA was Greg Logsdon. His chief duties included discipline, building maintenance, and transportation. Mr. Logsdon also assisted in coaching football and wrestling. Also new to the system was Rose Peterson. Mrs. Peterson acted as coordinator for the 7th and 8th graders, as well as teaching math. New in the position of education coordinator but not new to SA was Fr. Ed Hurley. His tasks include public relations and fund raising. this page: (top) Ms. Patricia Lackowski addresses the graduates of 1980.

The third annual Senior Production was held on Friday, December 21. The afternoon performance allowed both high school students and faculty to take a break from the normal classroom routine. Some pf the production's highlights were the "Faculty Meeting", "Twelve Days of Iran", " Qom Plucka Plucka" affd "The Newlywed Game." Each individual in the audience was charged a fee of 50¢ for the afternoon enjoyment. Candy was sold before the performance and during intermission. The proceeds for the day were added to the Senior Class Treasury to aid them in purchasing a "Senior Gift" for the school. Bill McGinn and Liz Rohling, garbed as under world spies, dug in the closets of many underclassmen seeking old skeletons. The Senior Production would not be complete without a visit from Santa Claus.

New members of the National Honor Society were inducted in a special ceremony that was attended by all the students on April 16. The day was dubbed "dress-up day" in honor of the special occasion. The ceremony, which had previously been held on Awards Night, was moved to the afternoon so the new members could be recognized by their peers. To become a member of NHS, students must have a 3.25 grade point average and must be approved by seven teachers. Students are chosen each year on the basis of their scholarship, leadership, character and grades. Current members are reviewed each year, and if they no longer fulfill the qualifications, their membership is revoked. At the beginning of the ceremony members explained each of the four standards. Then one by one the candidates, unaware of who they were, were presented with a rose, and a medal. The new pledges were on hand and were escorted into the gym to meet their children as they were inducted. A reception followed in the cafe for the NHS members, their parents and families and the faculty. Mrs. Kathy Jennings was the NHS faculty advisor for 19 79-80.

HeyfWhat are YOU •listening to? St. Albert's Favorite Bands of the 90 's By: Mark Mortensen Staff Writer When students were asked about their favorite group, the answers ranged from a country artist to alternative. The most mentioned, and popular groups or artist, were Green Day, Garth Brooks, and Pearl Jam. Like other students Sophomore Ryan Stuntz is curious about what goes on at the concerts. Stuntz wanted to see Green Day in concert for many reasons. " Mainly for the mosh pits, mass mania and the chicks going crazy," said Stuntz. Garth Brooks was one of the only country singers that students at SA would buy a ticket to go see. "He's the man, " said junior Steve Turner. Most people interviewed said they liked his songs, but also wanted to go because of the entertainment value. "He has got one of the top sound stages in the business. He's got some good songs and is very entertaining," said Turner. "He is the best entertainer today," according to Turner. The last band requested by students was Pearl Jam. Along with Green Day, Pearl Jam is one of the more popular alternative bands of the 90's. "Eddy Vedder puts on a good show. He has lots of energy," said junior Matt Dinovo. Along with Vedder's energy is an energetic crowd. "Sometimes the concerts can get a little dangerous because of the mosh pits, but that's part of the excitement that dpws you to buy the ticket," said Dinovo.

Alternative? Rap? Country? Music to students ears By: Lizzy Gorman, Anne Burgett, Lucia Sanchez Music has become a rather popular subject among the St. Albert student body. Whether you prefer r::ip , pop, grunge, or country tunes, you're sure to find a radio station that will get you moving to the beat. There are several different reasons people chose to listen to different types of music. Sophomore Dever Hansen prefers the classic rock, such as The Rolling Stones and The Doors. "It makes me feel so good. Some of the music is so good I could ljsten to it for hours." Freshman Mike Draper enjoys listening to the more recent groups such as Nirvana and The Beastie Boys. "I like the style, and the way it sounds. The lyrics are pretty cool," said Draper. A majority of the students like all types of music and have favorite groups for each type. Junior Matt Britten agrees, "I like listening to Nine Inch Nails." In a survey of SA students, over half the students chose Eddje Vedder as their favorite singer. Mo t people had last had purchased the Nirvana "Unplugged In New York" CD. And the favorite group was Green Day.

After working h~rd all week, sometimes you just have to let go and have some fun. -- By: Sara Kruse Index Edtior As 8th hour on Friday rolls around , students are no longer interested in algebra or chemjstry. Now they're concerned with major weekend plans. Whether it be with friends, famjJy or just a girlfriend or boyfriend, teenagers are bound to fi nd some way to spend their time. Students have a wide variety of choices. It ranges from going out with fri ends to a party, to renting a movie and staying home with a significant other. Due to the myri ad of personalities in the student body, it's diffic ult to find everyone doing the same activity. Some fi nd themselves dedicating a large amount of time to athletics year round. On the other hand, some teenagers pass weekends by working. "I work a lot during the weekend hours, but whenever I find the time to relax, I spend it with my friends, " sajd senior Drew Evers. But doing the same thing every weekend gets dull. On the average night students will find themselves going to a movie or j ust hanging out with friends at their house. But due to the desire to do something out of the ordinary, there are those few that occupy their time by fo r instance, going to hockey games or country line dancing. A major concern of money could enter one's mind. On the average, you can spend ten dollars or more in one night depending on the acti vity. Another obstacle that younger teens can' t overcome is not having a li cense. It can get diffic ult when your parents have to continuously drive a group of your fri ends everywhere. " Even if none of my fri ends drive we still have fun by hanging out or just having a bunch of people at someone's house," said freshman Meghan Beresford . As you can see, there are many different ways that students occupy their time, whether it be country line dancing or just sitting at a fri end's house watching movies. SA students are findin g ways to have a good time. Juniors Toby Fisher and Anna Gergevic dance the night away at an after game dance put on by the Pommers. You did WHAT last weekend??

For instance, she had her students simul ate working in a factory and starting a labor union. They could then understand the trouble workers went through during that process and that time. Sophomore David Reineke said, "We were able to understand what factory life was like and the authority the bosses had over their workers. I thin k we all understand it a lot better now." For S.A. students, history is not just learning the facts. but also learning the how and why.

The program was built with three new teachers and an added language. Mr. Gill has taken over the Latin program and Mrs. Leuschen, a new teacher, took over all Spanish one and some Spanish two classes. Mrs. Boltinghouse, also a new teacher, began the new French Mrs. Printy-Zika poses for the camera in her new hat for the Spanish trip. program. Gill said, "Latin is a very important part of the English language and is very important for kids to understand ." Foreign languages also helps students relate and prepare for the real world. "Learning a fo reign language teaches people to relate with others," said Spanish teacher Mrs. Printy-Zika, "and it is proven to improve your English vocabul ary and your SAT and ACT scores.'" Many people know that try ing to learn another language can be very frustrating, which is why the teachers often planned games and acti vities. Mrs. Printy-Zika's Spanish classes played games and sang songs, usually after finishing a chapter or for the holidays. The biggest top ic of the year was the Spani h tri p to Mexico. Fifteen Spanish three and four students vi ited Mexico City, Taxco, a small mining town in Mex ico, and Acapul co to get ome sun. The students were very excited about going.

But, for others, math just comes easy. Either way, math class is a big part of every hi gh school student's academi c career. Mrs. Swartz's Calculus class is mixing fun with hard work and chall enging concepts. Senior Jason Killi on said , "The fun we have during the class helps most students give their full attention during instruction." Trigonometry, also taught by Mrs. Swartz, is only a semester class so the students felt the end crunch at mid-term . Junior Dana Schwartz said, "I didn' t have any problems with the class but I did serve as an in-class tutor for some of my friends." Algebra Il was a full class this year with sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Junior Allison Arnold said something that appli es to most math classes, " It can be hard. You just have to pay attention because everything builds on what you learned the day before ." Mrs. Wiegman is, as usual, laying a solid foundation of Sophomore Jennifer Boettcher and junior Jennifer O'Donnell discuss the order of operations in their Algebra II assignment. Class time was often spent working in groups or consulting with other students. mathematics skills to be used in upper level math. "It's not too tough. You just have to pay attention," admits sophomore Jimmy Ge1javic, "But, I liked making snowflakes the best." Algebra is where most students get their first taste of high school mathematics. Freshman Eric Rogers said, " It's hard but I'm sure the things we are learning now will be useful in other classes." The math teachers at St. Albeit are sure to be pushing their students to the limits but as most students eventually find out " it's not too tough if you just pay attention." Sophomores Scott Fuchser and Megan Vanscoy may be a little stuck with their algebra.

The seniors in British Literature were hard at work on the dreaded term paper that was due in the late third quarter fo r Mrs. Kenny. Senior Tom Hughes said, " I didn't want to do it. but I did. " The Senior English c lass read quite a few books this year, one of whi ch was "Lord of the Flies" by Willi am Golding. " It was a great novel. I enjoyed it more than anyth ing that I' ve eve r read," commented senior Shannon Sulhoff. English teacher Mrs.Kenny asissts sophomore Dawn Stebbins with her research paper. This year there were two teachers of American Literature, Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Wiegman. Wilson's students studi ed the works of great authors and were bound to receive advice. Meanwhil e, Mrs. Wiegman's pupils watched the movie "Roots" and enjoyed free reading time every Friday. Sophomore English also had a paper due for Mrs. Kenny. In the paper, they were supposed to compare and contrast two of the same types of works, one from the past and one from the present. Sophomore Dave Reineke said,"[ think writing this paper will help us in the future with other compositions." In the first semester, Kenny teamed up with the Biology teacher, Mrs. Mooney, and took a joint field trip to the zoo. Sophomore Joe French stated, " I like the way we incorporated two different subjects into one field trip." The Freshmen English class read William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" and then watched the modern version "Westside Story" . They also read Martin Luther King Jr. 's "I Have a Dream" speech. Whether they are reading, writing, or just practicing the English language, St. Albert students are doing their best at improving themselves.

Mrs. Schall es said that both of these classes were learning how to figure both national and state income taxes. Schalles said that the students will have the opportunity to bring in and fill out their own fo rms. These classes also foc us on working with forms that students would use if they were actually working at a business. "During the first semester, students mainly worked with the classic pencil and paper, however, we hope to get the students onto the computers during the second semester," Schalles said. Senior Chris Van Scoy, Accounting I student, said that the class was one of his fav orite classes of the year. He mentioned that he was happy that he took the class and that it might come in handy depending on the fi eld that he decides to go into. Van Scoy said , "My favorite things to do in class are debits and credits because they are easy." Senior Michelle Wise, Accounting II student, said that she always had fun in her Accounting class. Wise's favorite parts of Accounting II using teams. Both the were doing balance sheets and Economics and Applied worksheets. Wise commented Economics classes focused on that both Accounting classes gave her a good background because her future college plans included doublemajoring in Finance and Accounting. Wise finished by adding, "I hope that Tom Hughes is appreciative of the fact that I talked him out of dropping the class." Mr. Wettengel, Economics and Applied Economics teacher, said that both classes were mainly concentrating on using more cooperative learning techniques. The students participated in class how the casino issue would affects the local economy. Wettengel said, "Everyone can benefit from this new system of learning because eventually all of the students will have to work with other people." It seems that these classes were costructive and offered useful inforn1ation that will be very helpful later on in life for those students who take them. Beside , who could complain about knowing how to get money back from the government? Senior Michelle Wise compiles all the big numbers for accounting class. Senior Tom Hughes throws his feet up to relax after a long day, preparing himself for the business world. This year the accounting classes prepared their own taxes. 31 Nick Lownes Ryan Ludington Cathy McClellan Jason McGruder Mario Mendoza Melinda Montagne Mark Mortensen Andy Morton Tim Murray Jenny O'Donnell Jordan Oder Rachel Olsen Mark Phelps Jeremy Quigley Theresa Rangel Lucia Sanchez Dana Schwartz James Schwery Daryl Scurlock John Smith McClain Smouse Joey Stock Gabe Sullivan Kelly Thomas Steve Turner 32 No photo available Michelle Vercio Kory Werts John Wulff Neil Yeoman Science: It's lllore than just theories By : Greg Kellogg Administrative Assistant Pull your hair back, strap on your goggles and put on your aprons.

Fresh and vibrant faces began to roam the halls of St. Albert. Not onl y were they seventh graders or fo reign exchange students, but a un ique breedteachers! Teachers are the very core for the existence of St. Albert. Without them, classes couldn 't continue. Yet, every year some teachers depart, leaving their memories behi nd. New teachers seek employment at St. Al bert and school goes on. But what draws these new teachers to St Albert? "The school's reputation and fine academic record made St. Albert look like a pl ace I would like to work," said Mrs. Madsen, the history teacher. However, the tranquil appearance of the outside of the bui !ding is a contrast to the faster pace of life within the walls. Mrs. Boltinghouse, the French teacher, 36 made the observati on that, 'The foc us of the school is not that busy. It's the rushing from one class to another." In addition to Madsen and Boltinghouse, seven other new teachers became part of the St. Albert staff. They are as fo llows: Mrs. Jarrett, physical educati on and math; Fr. Witte, religion; Mrs. Schall es, bu siness education; Deacon Overcamp, reli gion; Mr. Mr. Kimble encourages class pa rticipation by using visual aids. Kimble, soci al studies, honors history, and government; Mrs. Leuschen, Spanish; and M. E. Ward, study hall. The student body readily accepted the new additions. Schall es commented, "St. Albert is an open welcoming communi ty. Due to the sma ll size of the schoo l, the fac ulty ge nera lly works together as o ne ." Every new schoo l year brings about new changes. The new teachers had to adapt to their new surroundings. Most fo und the adj u tment rather easy to achieve. "The atmosphere is one of caring and acceptance. " noted Schall es. Boltinghouse said , "The students' attitudes make teachi ng at St. Albert a pleasant ex perience. " The student body and the new teachers can·ied on St. Albert's trad iti on of bein o a 0 school high ly regarded in academi cs, extracurri cular activiti es, and prayer. They trul y are the beholder's of St. Albert's future and it is looking bright.

The sad scenerio is the recognition received is generall y the same fo r both type of people. The effo rt that is given is usually a result"of the ty pe of person; there are also other factors in volved. A main contributor is the job. Teachers go overboard with all of the tasks they must complete. Most people do not reali ze all of the effort that teachers give. Besides teaching, there are many other acti vities that teachers do without bringing attention to themselves. These include: -l unch duty -detention duty -arri ving at school earl y or staying late fo r student retakes or to offer help in general -coaching -morning hall duty -teacher meetings Teachers are truly a gift.

During an era of constant changes, the future of the world turns to certain role models, idols, ... heroes. This is a time when our ideas, beli efs, and lifestyles are most exposed and are vulnerable to suggestion. The people in our lives may help us to find out who we really are. Nearly one-qua1ter of the St. Albert student popul ation have athletes as role models. As jackets, caps, and jersies show, sports are a large part of many people's lives. Parents, as well as other relati ves, are also accepted sources for guidance. Parents were once teenagers too. Although it seems they sometimes fo rget the questions they once had and the problems they once faced are similar to ours. For those that have no role models, why not? Together, learning can be easier, and our problems are not faced alone. Ken Griffey Jr. is looked up to by many young athletes.

Role Models: An Everlasting Impression By : Jeremy Quigley Staff Writer Role models he lp shape the future of the kids who look up to them. Lots of young children look up to them for advice, he lp and how to act. " Kids look fo r someone to fo llow and pattern themselves after," said psychology t acher Dick Wettengel. 'They like to identify with them." Ask.ing abo ut Charl es Barkley, who has publicly said that he doesn' t want to be a rol e model, brought a mi xed reaction. When you're in the spot light, "You can·t be who you really are," commented junior Mike Hoy. On the other hand, sophomore Jami e Richards said, "People can' t say don ' t look up to me . There are reasons why they are looked up to.'" People have different role models, from rock stars to grandparents. Hoy commented that his role model is his grandfather, "Because he worked hard whil e he was young and he helps people out now."· Richards said that her ro le model are her parents. "They can usually rememb r what it was like when they were your age." When finding a role model. keep in mind that they too can fail. Wettengel said the hardest things about havi ng a role model i , "If they fai l, how do you handle it?" Even though good role models are hard to find, don ·t give up looking.

This monumental occasion had been looming in the seniors' sights all year and had come at last. A few more tests and this year's seni ors were going to be gone. The last day came on May 22, a Monday. The soon to be grad uates celebrated their last day in the same way it has been ce lebrated for years, the after schoo l water fi ght. Seniors prepared by fillin g water balloons and water guns, and Matt Greave expressed the feelings of just about everyone when he said, "!' m pretty excited. " However happy the seni ors were to be leaving, there were mi xed feelings about going. Many people were anxio us about the colossal change they will experi ence whe n they reach college. Many students we re fee ling last mi nute pressures with fi na ls closing in so quic kly. There seemed to be too much to do in the last few days. The stre-.s of the last week was pretty bad. but many students foun d consolation in the fact that the fi nals they were taki ng were to be their last ever at SA. Along with the stress of the last few days came an insatiable urge to, we ll , to do nothing at all. Tony Re inhardt voiced his opinion. ·'Yes. I gues<; ifs hard to concentrate, I j ust want to be done." Whatever the feelings of the graduating class of 1995 were about lea ving, it was tirne fo r them to hi t the road.

This year, S.A. graduated 57 seniors who had put their time and effort into studies throughout the years, and still managed to be accomplished in all their endeavors. They knew that "Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice." Filled with knowledge and fo nd memories, these 57, together With fri ends and relatives, moved onward toward their next challenges in life. Commencement ceremonies started at 2:00 with the playing of "Pomp and Circumstance" by the Saint Albert high school band, fo llowed by an invocation by National Honor Society president Tony Reinhardt and a We lcome from senior class president Ann Narmi . Following these, the fo ur valedictori ans, Lesa Hoffman, Ryan Myers, Andy Nicholas and Amy Patten, gave their views of the future in articul ate fi ve minute speeches. While some stressed the importance of high school experiences, the dominant theme throughout all four was "We should work our hardest to achieve our destiny." After the ceremoni es had ended, Nicholas commented, "My voice was shaking, and I could fee l my heart pounding in my h ad." Mr. Gruber especially enjoyed some of Hoffman's comments, saying "I always thought that Kindergarten guy was full of it," referring to her allusion to the book All I Ever Needed to Know I Learned in Kindergarten. A special musical section by a group of seniors fo llowed. They sang "It's Hard To Say Goodbye" by Don Besig and received a standing ovation from the '?w . Two special awards were presented afterwards. The spirit of St. Albert Award, going to Andy Ni cholas and Jess Anderson, and the St. Albert Award, presented to Dr. Anthony Romano. The fi nal speaker of the day might have been the most special of all. Bishop Joseph Charron gave the seniors some of his best advise with a scripture from Maccabees, "Only three things does God require: To act justl y, to love kindly, and to walk humbly with our God. " Seniors Joe Hargens, Josh Horner, and Chris Vanscoy realized that preparation for graduation began early, with measuring for cap and gown. - \ Ann Hansman lends Joe Hargens a helping Ann Hansman and Jess Andersen work hard cutting out the letters of their class motto. hand during decorating for graduation. .)5959595959~9595 The --0 Ider 9595959595959595 O"'..

After placing at the regional di vision, they went on to State. To be on the Academic Decathlon team a student can have a grade point average varying from 0.0 - 4.0. Junior Tony Fischer received a trophy fo r high indi vidual honors. He scored highest in five out of ten events. Mrs. Kenny said , "These kids are over- achievers, they amaze me, and it was sparatically intense." The purpose of Academic Decathlon is to compete against other schools. This is not only an ex perience in competition, but it is also a learning experience. Junior Michelle Yercio said, " I am learning from this because we are covering new areas that I will be able to use next semester. " The team had special training on bio - technology from Mrs. Mooney and on giving speeches by Mr. Wilson. To be prepared for the two competitions members of the team read novels and wrote essays while others taught different subj ects to the rest of the team. It was mostly student teachings on bi o - technology that prepared them for the competitions. Junior McClain Smouse said, 'The student teaching helped me the most. Students taught me different things." At the team's trip to state in Denison, they didn ' t do as well as they planned. Although the team didn 't reach their goal of attending nationals, there will be seven out of nine members returning to the team next year, and are hoping to reach their goal.

The band also decided to cut loose and have a little fun this year by maki ng welcomed appearances at pep ra llies, football and basketball games and a wrestling dual. Other performances included masses, Christmas and spring concerts, the spring variety show, Adventure land, and the mall. The appearances were a new experience since most people haven't seen.

Choir Contestants Share Talents With Others By Theresa Rangel Staff Writer This was quite the year for the choir and Mrs. Stephany. The choir did a good job at contests and Mrs. Stephany had a baby boy, Brendan. The first event the choir practiced for was the Christmas season. They sang at the Mall of the Bluffs and sang for the students and fac ulty in the halls before Christma vacation. While Mrs. Stephany was gone , the choir was practicing for All-City and Mrs. Stu ntz took over. Mrs. Stephany's way of doing things was greatly missed. "With Mrs. Stuntz here we don' t work a hard and we don 't have our phms ready for the All-City music festival," said sophomore Jennifer Boettcher. Senior Chrissy Orwig thought that contest was the most fun . '"You get to meet a lot of people with the same interests as you. You were rated on performance, and it was a real learning experience," said Orwig. Many student have their own reasons for joining choir Junior Dan Koch likes choir "because you get to meet new people . ., Senior Kristy Meyer thought this year was better than previous years because "this year we have a lot more people in choir, and more guys that actually sing." Among the regular contests the choir had a Spring Concert, and All-City contest. "The music for All-City wa hard but we did fi ne. It was a lot of fu n being with people from different schools," aid Meyer. The goal of the choir was to "get more people to join, have fu n, and do quality performances,'' said Mrs. Stephany. ·The choir i a fun organization to join.

The play was chosen by theatre arts teacher, Mr. Wilson and music teacher, Mrs. Stephany. The cast consisted of approx imately 12 students, along with numerous singing parts. The cast of "Working" had practices everyday a fter school in Mr. Wilson's room, the choir room, or in the auditorium for two or two and half hours.

Journalism is much more. "In journalism you learn how to meet deadlines and other important life skills like writing, using the computer and most importantly how to work with others, " said adviser Mrs. Benson In Journalism l, students learn how to develop pictures using chemicals such as T-Max or Fixer. Students also learn to write different kinds of stories, like features or sports, and how to do layouts for a newspaper. People found it to be a lot more work than expected. One student in pmticular was Journalism l student Theresa Rangel.. At first l thought it would be easy work but it turned out to be a lot of work, but it does get easier," said Rangel. It seemed that most people took journalism because they thought it might be an easy "A" , especially managing editor #2 Joe Stuhr. He said, "I took it because I thought it would be an easy class but I found out it helped me express myself better." Managing Editor #1 Nichoel Thompson took journalism because she "wanted to get more involved with the school and its activities. Also designing a book that your classmates m·e going to look at yem·s from now makes you feel a little important." If you're going to take journalism for an easy "A" think again. There is a lot of work involved in Journalism l and II. The Journalism I Staff: front: Erin Horner, Johnna Hargens, Anne Burgett, Theresa Rangel, Lucia Sanchez, Mark Mortensen.

Members paced up and down SA' s home street and found anything from pop cans to memorabilia from last year's state basketball tournaments. However, the chapter not only required its members to participate in these projects, but also encouraged its members to participate in their own service proj ects. According to senior and first-year-member Chrissy Orwig, " I enjoy this, especially because of the type of responsible people who participate in this." The most important lessons learned from NHS may be their meetings, held monthly in room l 09. Students propose the chapter's up-coming activities, group into committees and vote on bills. According to President Reinhardt, "You have to lead from an agenda and make sure everyone else does their job." NHS President Tony Reinhardt gives a speech during the NHS induction.

They have done pop cans, Catholic Schools Week, Red Ribbon Week and many more events, but now with Prom and Graduation upon them, more of a burden is put on them. Even though it is a commanding job, it is still fun and enjoyable. Junior class officer Ben Koch said, " I like the fact that I' m representing the class." Sophomore Andrew Regan took a more educational approach when he said, " It looks good on your college application." With the success of past events and wanting to be successful this year, the class officers can feel a little pressure. And with Prom and Graduation, it was very important to the class officers and to the entire student body that these events be a success. Koch commented, "I feel a little pressure because last year's Prom was so good." But with Graduation, Senior class officer Tony Reinhardt said, " I don' t really feel any pressure because we made all the preparations earlier this year and we made the decisions as a class. There is also pressure on the class sponsors for these events. Junior class adviser, Mrs. Mooney, said, "We're in charge of Prom, which includes fundraising, organizing, decorating, cleaning-up, and chaperoning." Senior class sponsor Ms. McGuire commented, 'Tm in charge of organizing a representative to get invitations and senior voting. Also I take orders for graduation, have a mass and breakfast, and a mass and dinner with the parents."

Student Council Reps Give 100% by: Johnna Hargens staff writer The Student Council members are responsible for a number of activities throughout the year, but especially to raise school spirit, organize activities and set a good example for other students in the chool. They also develop responsibility, initiative, and cooperation among students and the administration. One of the biggest events was the magazine drive. Students surpassed all goals for the drive, earning $15,000. The Student Council was also in charge of Catholic Schools Week. They planned and set up the activities. Some of the new activities were the student/ teacher volleyball tournament and an afternoon of movies, pop and popcorn for seniors. "Being on Student Council helps me to be more involved with the school, and it is a lot of fun," said sophomore vice president, E1in Ryan. Another activity they were responsible for was Red Ribbon Week. The Student Council members gave out red ribbon stickers to show support for a drug-free lifesty ule. To help heighten the awareness of the dangers of drinking and driving, members handed out black sweartshirts to tudents to represent those that had died in alcoholrelated accidents. Being on Student Council required a lot of dedication. Senior and president of the Student Council, Andy Nicholas said, "I enjoyed being on Student Council because I liked interacting and working with people and I liked the projects we did."

As students attending St. Albert High School we are part of a legend. "The school on the hill", rich in traditions that have been kept since the last brick was laid, the school itself could be called a legend. Yet, the real legends at SA are the students. Each student has a story. This book will tell that story, the story about each and every one of us and our involvement in our school. Without the people who populate the hallways and classrooms, what would this school be? Nothing but a hollow shell with no legends of the past, no legends in the making, and no future legends. We are the legends of St. Albert, and together we have created the legend of 1996. The activHies that took place this year were made memorable by the students who took part in them. The sporting events that were won, were won only because there were many talented athletes and coaches who gave it their all to bring home a victory. Organizations were successful in their endeavors because of the time and hard work put in by all those involved. And of course, the school year itself could not have been such a fortuitous learning experience if there were no teachers, administrators, or students. With this in mind, think again about the definition of the word legend. Are you a legend? Yes, you are, and so is everyone who attends SA. We are all legends individually, and we are all part of the St. Albert legend. All of us are "legends" . As long as we are a part of St. Albert we al ways will be.

" Peace Out!!!" 00000 5 Student Life Memories of Summer1995 Copy Editor Rachel Olsen Remember those days of summer? The times of sleeping late, getting out of your pajamas around 2:00 p.m., hanging out with your friends during the day, doing tfiings only if you wanted to and not having a care in the world? Ahh, summer! Just when you get use to it, BOOM! School starts. Soon you're back to the monotone days of homework and studying. To enliven the lonely and somewhat boring days of school, SA students reflected on the days of summer, 1995. Some students had summer vacations full of excitement. Others enjoyed the simple, good life. Senior Jodie Friedrichsen said her summer basically consisted of "going to Cabana pool and basking in the sun." Student Life 6 Junior Holly Swanek had what most would call an exciting summer. She was lucky enough to go on a vacation to the Bahamas without her parents or any adult upervision ! Swanek stated, "It was great!" For most students the typical smnmer afternoon consisted of going to the pool, going to work and just staying cool with the A.C. In the evening most students hung out with their friends, relaxed and went to work. On an average most students slept in between the hours of ten a.m. and noon. Summer was a time for fun and trying new things. Senior James Schwery went down to Fort Benning, GA for basic training. Summer 1995 is over but far from forgotten, as SA students look back with smiles. The Summer sun reminds us of those lazy days when we had time for friends, family, and fu o.

An Alarming Beginning Advertising Lucia Sanchez The alarm goes off, you reach over to turn it off, wonderino "' why you must get up so early in . the morning. Then it hits you. The nightmare you had just awaken from is actually a reality, today is the first day to get up and go back to school. Being back up on the hill brought several different fee lings for each student. A few of the students were more than happy to be back into the swino of "' things. "I wanted to see everybody again, ya know? !" said senior Ben Koch. However, a majority of the student body agreed that being back was all work and no play. " I wasn' t looking forward to coming back because of a ll the homework and stuff - I hardly ever have any free time to myse lf, especially during the beginning of the school year," sa id junior Melissa Kroll. ·Tm not glad to be back in school because I'm not a senior yet," said sophomore Joe Beltran. "I kinda wish it was still summer so that way I could swim and lay out and spend more time with my fri ends," said freshman Anitra Mendoza. Each year as a student grows older, being a part of each high school class takes on its own meaning. As a freshman a student is finall y considered a part of high school, which is a big step up in the teenage years. Freshmen were allowed to attend high school dances. Being a sophomore gave each student a chance at a varsity position in any sport Sophomores were offic ially able to operate a motorized vehicle by themselves (no permit required) and were also no longer the youngest in high school. Juniors were no longer "underclassmen. " It was the first year they were allowed to attend the prom. A junior could take certain courses for college credit, a head start on their senior year. Seniors "ruled the school." Being the "Big Kahuna's'" added a lot of stress, but most seniors seemed to handle it well knowing it was their last year. "It's tough being a senior because of all the stress you have making the right decisions that will affect your future, but at the same time you' re still a teenager and want to hang out with your friends and j ust have fun," said senior Jason McGruder. Although most seniors were glad it was the last year of high school, a few wi ll mi being "up on the hill." Regardless the most anticipated event for all seniors was graduation day. Although there were many mixed feelings about going back to school, school' a reality and the sooner you got up, the faster you got out!

Change sweeps SA Marketing Editor Erin Horner The St. Albert students started off the new year with many changes. Among these were: Homeroom, early bird classes, new uniforms, and an IBM lab. Instead of students racing down the hallways between 8:00 and 8:25, stndents must now be at schooi by 8: 10. This change is due to the addition of homeroom. During homeroom, students watched Channel One. While most of the students were coming to school at 8: 10, some students were ready for their second class of the day . These students were part of the new early-bird program. This gave students a chance to come to school early and leave early. The IBM lab was a change not overlooked by the students. It gave them a chance to Left: Ken Graeve gets his work done during early bird Advanced Biology .. . "The early bird gets the worm!" to work with a different type of computer. Senior Jeremy Quigley said "I prefer the IBM, because I have one at home." One of the most noticeable changes wa the new uniforms for students. S.A. girls had new skirts and a broader variety of pants to choose from. "The new uniforms are alright, but I don't care for the pleats" said freshman LaChrista Woods. Boys were limited to the color of pants and shirts. They had to wear a white, yellow or light blue dress shirt. Pants had to be navy, khaki, black, gray or hunter green. The new year brought about new things. Although some disagreed with the changes, a majority agreed. However. the benefits of progress will continue to be appreciated in the times to come.

The seniors realized that this would e their last homecornming as students instead of almuni. The week started off with pajama day. Tuesday was formal dress day because of the homecoming mass. Wednesday was back to the craziness with armed forces day. Thursday was time to dig through the closets becuase it was past generations day. The pep rally on Thursday got the students pumped up for a little fun and festivities on Saturday, the dance. The mood was set for a disco night on the town. Above: Senior Anna Gerjevic looks cute in her pajamas as she perkily beams at the photographer. Student Life 10 The pep rally faced off the classes in a little friendly class to class competition. The juniors prevailed in the contest, followed by the seniors, sophomores and freshmen. One of the better games to watch for a good laugh was the eating contest. Matt Heenan kept that tradition alive by getting pudding all over the gym and getting very little in his mouth. It may not have been the best way to eat but it was good enough for the victory. The pep rally was concluded with the crowning of . Marty Hughes and Anna Gergavic as the 1995 royalty.

A heartbreaking game for the Falcons Advertising Editor J ohnna Hargens "When it rains it pours." Though no water fe ll from the sky, there was plenty in the eyes of S.A. players and fans after losing the Homecomjng game 14-0 against CA-M. No matter how it looked on fi lm, or from the stands, the Falcons never gave up hope. Junior quarterback Ryan Stuntz, who led the Falcons through previous wins was disappointed. "The intensity was there but the execution was questionable," he said. Breakdowns, whether mental or physical, overwhelmed the team's spirit that night. The Falcons tri ed to stay mov iated thoughout the season so that they could pl ay well at this game. Playing well does not always mean a win, but learni ng how to play football does occur at every game.

Like John Travo lta, who danced a long as the disco hit mov ie Saturdav Ni ght Fever played, students were encouraged to come dressed in disco style. The two major standouts were junior Charli e Nanni and senior Joey Stock. Narmi came decked out in a powder blue tuxedo with ruffles whil e Stock went fo r the leisure suit look in glistening white. Both dazz led the ladi es. Whether dressed in disco attire or just dancing to the best disco hits, all the students who attended the dance had a good time.

Managing Editors Lizzy Gorman Anne Burgett The fi na l be ll just rang, you go to your locker and j am some books into your bag. Why? Because it's Friday! You are in fo r a weekend of fun and excitement. So, what do you do for fun on your weekend? Because we know that the weekend can be a very boring thing if you have nothing to do, and the usua l options (mov ies, the Old Market), are getting reall y sta le, we thought up a few activities to spice up your only time away from you-know-where. If you're yearning fo r outdoor excitement, roller-blad ing and biking are good options. The Wabash Trace is a beautiful place to go riding on a ni ce day. However, good weather conditions are a must. You could always go fo r a hike, whi ch is great exerc ise, and can be done anywhere. Just be sure that if you go out wa lking at night you wea r re fl ective clothing. There are some outdoor winter ac ti vities you can take part in . One that is enterta ining, yet slightly expensive, is snow skiing at Mt.Crescent. Of course, we cannot forge t the all time favo rite winte r acti vity ... sledding. Whether you take your little siblings or go with your friends, sledding is fun fo r everyone. A way to spice up your mov ie going experience is go ing the dri ve-in movi e theater. It sounds k ind of 1950's, but it's really fun and you get three mov ies fo r the pri ce of one. lndoor weekend ac ti viti es can inc lude roll erskati ng or ice-skating.

Ice skating is a popular acti vity, also. Hitchcock indoor ice rink is the place most frequented for teenagers looking fo r some thrills. It is often crowded and might make your ankles sore but watching your dearest friends dust ice shavings off the ir bums after a Kamikaze style wipe out is worth the pain. Of course there is always the good old stand by, going over to a friend's hou e and watching mov ies. Here is a list of our favo rite mov ies to watch on a night when there is nothing else to do: Fast Times at Ridgemont Hi gh, Sixteen Candles, Weird Science, Animal House, The Breakfast Club, St. Elmo's Fire, the list is never-ending! It can even be relaxing to spend some time with friends and not really do anythi ng but sit aro und. These are some of the more exciting, or at least really fu n, weekend activities. Yet the big standout is surprisingly simply hanging out with friends at each others' houses. Freshman Andy Smith said, "A big night for me is when me and the guys sneak out to girls' houses at 2:00 a.m." So, whether you opt for a big ni ght out, or just sitting around with friends, make the best of your weekends because Monday means five more days of the s-word.

It's supposed to be the greatest night in high school. The ladies picture themselves in their dresses with their hair perfectly done, having the most romantic night in their young lives. Guys look studious in their rented tuxes wondering if they will have any money left after that night, but then reali ze that they will do anything to please their date. This year's prom lived up to the expectations. It was decorated in a medi eval motif. And was so properly call ed "Oh What A Kni ght." A gossarnar ceiling, waterful , wall decorations, a large moat, and a castle completed the medieval theme. Juniors were responsible for setti ng up and cleaning up. They worked after school until ten at night the entire week before prom under the supervision of Ju li e Mooney and Thomas J. Kaup. No prom would be complete without a Icing and queen. The junior court included Annie Heithoff, Melissa Kroll , Amy Vanfossan, Ken Graeve, Charlie Narmi, and Ryan Stuntz. The seniors chosen were Christie Burke, Lindy Andersen, Lizzy Gorman, Andy lrwin, Tim Murray, and Kelly Thomas. Lindy Andersen and Kelly Thomas were selected as king and queen. "Oh What A Knight" was a prom to remember for both juniors and seniors. Dancing close by your date or just breaking it down instill memories a camera can' t capture.

This team of brains made it to state for the second year in a row. The Academic Decathalon team meets challenges in a number of academic areas: speech, math, science, social science, fine arts, literature, economics, essay, prepared speech, impromtu speech, an interview, and a super quiz. The team did very well at state, placing ninth among small schools.

Fischer commented, "We improved over the last year as a team. Organizations 28 We had higher scores and a higher rank." Academic Decathalon requires team efforts with individual performance. The Academic Decathalon team meets three days a week during 08. At these times the students use team work by quizzing each other, to prepare each other for competetion. Mrs. Kenny stated, "I usually don't teach, I sit back and watch them help each other and all I do is coach them along." There are three levels of the Academic Decathalon team: Varsity, Scholastic, and Honors. The Varsity team includes anyone wi th a "C" average or lower, but not failing. The Scholastic team includes anyone with a "B" average. The Honors team consists of anyone with an "A" average. The 1996 St. Albert Academic Decathalon team had 1 I members. Next year the Academic Decathlon team will lose 7 members due to gradutation. According to Mrs. Kenny, the team will not be hurting. "St. Albert students have a lot of talent.

Competitive Drama "A Time to Go Home" Advertising Editor J ohnna Hargens Every year the drama department puts together a one ac t play that goes to competi tion. The one act chosen usuall y deals with rea l life issues that young people face. This year's one act was entitled: "A Time to Go Home." It was about fo ur teens who were kill ed in an alcohol-related car accident. The characters look back in their li ves and see how time has qui ck ly passed and things they wished they could have changed. They see everything happening as if they were there. They see the pain their famili es are goi ng thro ugh. In this afte r life they lea rn to accept the fact that they are dead and reali ze that it is time to go home (heaven). Depressing and sad as the play may be, this team of artists managed to make it to superstate . Receiving I ratings at Distri cts moved the team to State. At State, they also received I ratings whi ch moved them to superstate. It's not easy to achieve superstate. Hours of practi ce, and good attitudes got these talented young ac tors there. Junior Mary Beth Ryan stated, "We improved after every performance and the best one shined th rough at superstate." This year's cast was a mi xture of very experienced and inexperi enced ac tors. There were a number of students making their first appearence on stage. However, this didn ' t stop these determined performers. Ryan commented, " It's a lot of fun competing in drama, and making it to superstate made it worthwhile."

Talking All the Way to the Top Advertising Editor J ohnna Hargens Individual Speech members compete in a number of areas including poetry, prose, acting, and story-telling. Individual Speech is more difficul t than many people think. It is also very time consuming. Sophomore Meghan Beresford said, "I wasn't exactly prepared when I performed. and I didn't do so good." As you can see it requires much time, practice, and effort. There were five participants involved with the Individual Speech Contest this year. They were j unior John D' Ang lo and sophomores Ben Nicholas, Meghan Beresford, Ellen Masker, and Joe Hensley. Although four of the participants didn · t advance to state, lone star sophomore Ben Nicholas advanced to state, and then onto superstate, receiving a I rating at Districts, three I ratings at State, and I at superstate. Ben Nicholas performed in the area of tory-telli ng. He did a section of '·Encounter" by Jane Yolen. When asked how he thought he did, Nicholas sa id. "At District I was kind of nervou , but really excited. As soon as I made it to tate, I became even more ne rvous." Havi ng to perform against some of the top performers isn ·t easy fo r anyone. Nicholas stated, "As soon a I made it to superstate I wasn't nervou anymore. l knew I had to be good to make it, and I wa good enough.'' 29 Organizations Above: Ms. Stephany, seen playing the piano, conducted the choir through various Masses and field trips.

So what does the Student Council do? The things the S.C. does fo r the school requires a lot of extra time. They organized the school dances, including "Disco Inferno" the ever famous Homecoming dance. The council also does a lot to boost schoo l spirit. They sponsor spirit days as we ll as fun days such as "Senior Come Late Day .'· "We also make welcome signs fo r new students" to let them know they are part of our school family. Probably the worst duty that the student council has would be pop can duty. Yuck! Fischer's statement is echoed by all the S.C. members. "Pop cans are so disgusting!" Does S.C. give the students a voice in how our school is ran? The answer is both yes and no. Fischer said "The schoo l board is really in charge. We can say what we want them to do, but it's not like they will always listen to us." Senior Ben Koch looked at the more positive aspect. "Being on S.C. is a way to present your ideas about school.

Howeve r, that illusion is de finite ly fa r from the reality. Journalism I and II students work ve ry hard on projects such as the yearbook, Dimensions and the newspaper, Accipiter. The Journalism II c lass of 1995-96 worked mainly on the yearbook. Photograph editors were Jeremy Quigley, Theresa Range l, and Mark Mortensen. Advertising editors were Johnna Hargens and Luci a Sanchez. In charge of layout and computers was Ray Gibson, and copy editing was done by Rache l Olsen. The index editor was Erin Horner, and co-managing editors were Anne Burgett and Lizzy Gorman. The stress of being in charge did get to be too much at times. " I just cry a lot," was Rachel Olsen's solution to her stress problems. According to managing editor Anne Burgett, getting rid of stress requires letting off some steam. " I handle the tress by having sessions with my co-managing editor, Lizzy Gorman," she said. The adv isor fo r the year was Mr. Thomas Kaup ; new to the school, and new to journalism. Speaking of his position, Kaup said, " I Jove it. I fee l bad because I didn ' t know much in the beginning, but I have ~arn d a lot. " The Journa lism I class was very excited about the ir first expiriences with the newspaper. The class contained 14 students.

The ninth grade team started the season with a tie to Lewis Central. However, the frosh didn 't let their spirits fall, and they ended up with a 6-0-1 record for the season. The first game was a downer for the Falcons. Phil Graeve said, "We should have won agai nst Lewis Central, we just weren't prepared." Although the fres hmen tied the first game, they improved throughout the year. Graeve said, "We improved a lot by the end of the year. We had some injuries at first." Junior Varsity had a rougher road to travel than the freshman. With a small team, and some players moving up to varsity throughout the season, they had many obstacles to tackle. Sophomore Joe Ord II said, "The beginning was really hard." Although the beginning of the season l)roved to be a cha!Jenge, the team improved much by the last game. "We improved a lot even though we lost a lot of people to the varsity team," said Ord. The JV record was 2-5 . Both the ninth grade and the junior varsity teams did well this year, and continued the fine tradition of Falcon football.

Advertising Editor Johnna Hargens Staff Writer Meghan Beresford They have - a small number of participants, very little experience, and no court to play on! But despite the odds, the St. Albert boys and girls tennis teams worked together this year to become the best they could be -and had fun doing it. Competing for players with large group sports such as soccer and track isn ' t easy. Tennis attracts only a small number of students, many of whom have never even picked up a racket! Sophomore Ashley Arnold was one of the newcomers. Commenting on learning the sport, she says "It's a lot of fun, but it's so much harder than people think." At the other end of the spectrum, Junior Heather Johnson is a seasoned three year veteran. She also acknowledges that the season can be difficult for the less experienced players. "Court time is limited , but needed." she notes. Sophomore Kelly Harrington provided an optimistic summary of the '96 season: "Our team improved a lot this year with experience." The girls commented on the work of coac hes Jonna Andersen and Jan Dahlgaard, both Above: of whom are new to the program. Says Andersen of the team: "I think they ' ve got a lot of potential. We don ' t have any seniors, so the team can grow together. This may have been our best season in a long, long time. " Ironically, the boys tennis team also acquired a new coach this year- Sam Karr. And they, like their female counterparts, pride themselves on the work they put into the season. Junior Marc Petersen cites "a lot of talent" and " team unity" as the teams' main strong points. "We're pretty good," he says, "Tough to beat." Petersen also claims that this years' younger team, which includes only two seniors, will be at an advantage in the near future. "Other school will lose a lot of good players. We aren ' t affected as much." The boys work hard and hope to achieve greatness in the future, but for now, they're content to have a blast. As for the overal I season, Junior Ken Graeve sums it up: "We' re the greatest, but we lose a lot." Graeve attributes all losses not to lack of talent, but to too many prematch tacos at Jonesys. The boys would also like to thank Sam Karr for his time and effort. Congrats to both teams on a fun and exciting season, and keep swingin ' !

Teachers: Above and Beyond Copy Editor Rachel Olsen The St. Albert family is a family because of all the different people that make it up. Students are the center of the school, but it's the faculty and staff that make St. Albert go around. Teachers devote much of their time to helping out students. They are seen in the mornings and the afternoons tutoring their students, always offering to give up their spare time to help the students to better understand their classes. Many students fee l that if they didn 't get the extra help from teachers, their grades wouldn't be as good. Senior Anne Burgett said, "Mrs. Swartz always helps me with calculus, if she didn' t help me, I would never understand it". Everyone has had some good and bad times with their teachers, but at St. Albert the only times we have are the good ones.

They did it again! The 1996 Falcon Baseball Team took the Di vision 2A State Champion Title, blowing away schools all across the state who had never heard of St. Albert as well as SA students themselves. The boys, who were state qualifiers in 1995, decided as a team that their season goal was to reach the state tournament in Marshalltown again. The hope of wi nning the tournament was just a speck on the hori zon- but it was enough. The Falcons started the ir year off moderately, despite the hard work and dedi cation. Then, slowly, the ir efforts began to pay off. The team "clicked", with the ir game building to acrescendo at the State Tournament. ln the ir first round matchup against Osage, the Falcon team smoothly slid by. And in the Above: The Falcons huddle for a team prayer following the game. Above: The Falcon fans cheer on the baseball team at the semifinal game against Dyersville Beckman. Left: Dean Gray encourages fellow teammmate Eric Janecek during the Sioux Central, Sioux Rapids game. Right: Eric Janecek hurls another deadly pitch in the semi-final game. semifinal round, the boys crushed Sioux Central, Sioux Rapids. In the Championship game, pressure mounted as Eric Janecek took the mound. These boys handled it well. The Falcons dominated the whole game, proving that the underdogs can come out on top. And that spirited message will not be forgotten. When the players have graduated and the celebrations are over, the banner will still hang in the gym, the trophy will beam out of its case, and the memory of the team that went in as underdogs and came out as champions will always linger in our minds. CONGRATS 1996 FALCONS ON A SUCCESSFUL YEAR! Congratulations State Champions Above: Above: The Falcons shake hands with the opposing team, Sioux Central Sioux Rapids, after the semi-final victory.

This book is filled with the pictures and narrative of a year in the life of the institution we call St. Albeit. We have attempted to tell the story of this year. While it is impossible to capture the events, emotions, and energy of an entire year in 122 pages, we hope that this book will serve as a brief reminder of all that the year of 1995-1996 brought to the community of St. Albert. Each hallway, each classroom, and each space in this building carries the echoes of voices gone before. Each desk has served as a seat of learning for a student. Each pew in our chapel has served as a place for prayer. Our voices_ now become part of this legendary song. All legends have a beginning. All students have a start somewhere. The following two pages are a glimpse into that beginning, the promise and joy of childhood. These glimpses of the SA senior class of 1996 remind us of the joy and energy brought to the task of becoming a legend. And they also remind us of how far we have come, and how far we have yet to go. May the joy of our youth, expressed on these pages, never die! 119 Student Life Student Life 120 121 Student Life BEST WISHES to the Class of 1996 Saint Albert High School Administration, Faculty, and Staff St. Albert Jr. Sr. High School 400 Gleason Avenue Council Bluffs, Iowa 51503 (712) 328-2316 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
