The tsunamis were caused by a 9.0 earthquake centered in . the Indian Ocean off Sumatra. It was the most powerful earthquake in 40 years. The international community reacted quickly with aid amid fears about disease from the bodies and lack of clean water. A few stories of miracles came from the wreckage, such as a woman found alive floating in the Indian Ocean on a palm tree five days after the tsunamis. But tens of t11ousands were missing and may never be found. Many were tourists from around the world , including the United States, who had been enjoying the warm climate for the holidays. The internet became a focal point for people looking for loved ones in the region, as blog sites to news sources such as CNN enabled people to post information about missing friends and fam ily. The U. S. pledged $350 million in aid to th e region, and President George W. Bush asked his two immediate predecessors in the White House, Bill Clinton and George H.W. Bush, to head an appeal for private donations. Re-elected ~ President George W. Bush was re-elected, defeating Democratic challenger Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts. The Republican majority in Congress strengthened, as the party gained four seats each in the House and Senate. Voter turnout was the highest since 1968. War continues ~ U. S. forces remained on the front lines in Iraq, trying to bring stability to a country besieged by Iraqi rebels. Prior to Iraqi national elections in January, the U.

Charley came inland from the Gulf of Mexico and hit the peninsula; Frances and Jeanne from the eastern Flori da coast; and Ivan made landfall on Alabama near the Florida border. As the storms moved inland, heavy rains, thunderstorms and tornadoes caused flooding and damage to everything from buildings to beaches from Texas to Pennsylvania. The U.S. death toll from the four storms was more than 120 people. The hurricanes that stru ck the U.S. fi rst wreaked havoc across the Caribbean.

The people on these pages are vital lifelines that: can tie an entire student body together. V/1thout the links t:hat connect all of the grades and groups, TriCenter would JUSt be random blobs of people. Students are often closest with their friends, and their friends are a majOr factor of surv1v 1ng high school. Freshmen and sophomores acctuire as many friends as possible, realizing the chance of all those fri~ndsh1ps lasting are not very good. Juniors and seniors find friends that are priceless, and they will remember those friends when th1nk1ng back to the "good old days." Students have some of the best times of their lives and insert names of those included into the pages of the litt:le black oak. To some a little black book may JUSt be a list of names and numbers. To the beholder of the book, though, 1t 1s a map of his or her life; it 1s a book not filled names and numbers but with unique memories.

Many staff members had corny, crazy, or even nutty ways of doing their ~obs. Mr. Fah has been known for such ehav1or. One example 1s his demonstration o the shocking of static electr1c1ty with a static bcill. Senior icki McCool said, "The static ball was cool, but I forgot what VvJS taught." The staff wor ed hard to do their Jobs. The adm1nistrat1on Vvorked to "rule the school" and make sure everything went smoothly. The cooks prepared food everyday and added smiles vv 1th each meal. The custodians r:Jtl::::Jil~.. spent hours before and after school ma -1ng sure the campus and buildings looked their best. Bus drivers worked early and late hours getting students to and from school and act1vit1es. The staff spent extra time before and after school to help out the community. 63% of the staff members coached and/or sponsored extracurricular act1v1ties. Those who helped out 1n this way were important 1n • - • the success of teams, organ1zat1ons, and other act1vit1es. The staff not only did their JOb, but also cared about each student --~• individually. Staf members strived to help students reach their potent1cil \A.ihile performing cit tne best of their abil1t1es. Although the stciff may hcive been nutty, they helped students and created a pos1t1ve school environment. a-1 1\dministrators '5ecretaries Kelly Dollen Tami Harman Angie HuserYJan Karen Kay Rhonda McKenzie Roberta Morse Brett I Janninga Sally l~ann1nga Steve Stafford Bnan : /edem".yer 26 People ~=-~~~~ l\ssociates �Josh Abel Jenny Berens Middle '8chool and lfigh '8chool Tmchers Mary Jane Buzbee Brenda Chmelka Carl Cochran Julie Coffey Sarah Elliott Jeff Fah Cass:e Harns Andy Hensley Larry Hornbostel Kevin Matulka er· <;rr SnPri1'1an ateS1nions Staff 27 �SCHOOL BOARD: Front: Nariey Cohen, Secretary Rhonda McKenzie, Mike Pettit.

Although being .a junior brought th.at glorified title, it .also brought .an incredibly l.arger, tougher war lo.ad. "L.ast ye.ar I h.ad time to do things jUSt for fun. This ye.ar I c.an h.ave up to three hou1'S of homework .a night. This ye.ar is w.ay tougher th.an l.ast ye.ar," commented junior Olivi.a Nelson. A big responsibility the junior cl.ass took on, .as every other Junior cl.ass did, w.as Prom. They were held responsible for everything from the fundr.aising that goes into the .annu.al event to deciding the theme .and the decor.ations. Another thing on the minds of m.any juniors 1s the ide.a of college. This is the time when the thought of the ACT's loom 1n their minds .and "wh.at are you going to do with your life?'' comes up .all too often.

After some trci1ning, those 7 5 students made mciny transitions and strides from freshman year to sophomore year. First, they knew what to expect; they were no longer the freshmen who didn't know what to do or say. As sophomores they felt more power towcirds themselves and others. Therefore, they didn't get picked on quite as often. ~~~.. The biggest and best stride was turning sixteen. Most .. . . . sophomores turned sixteen during the year and were then able to drive most anywhere they wanted.

Social studies classes helped students learn about places both far away and locally. In science and agriculture classes students learned how the earth works and why things happen the way they do. English and Spanish classes taught students how to speak intelligently. Math, business, and computer classes helped prepare students for the work force. Family consumer science, industrial technology, art, and physical education classes also helped butld beautiful minds. Students were able to loo at areas of the workforce they might have wanted to consider doing after high school. Academics may have seemed like nuisances at times.

Ab It is important for students to know history. Without knowing where they have been, they have no way to say where they are going. Three high school teachers helped students learn that in a variety of classes which gave a "Blast from the Past." Mr. Carl Cochran taught three social studies classes. World History stud'ents studied the Industrial Revolution and England as well as important themes of history. The Geography class included map study as well as a look at the reasons that people live and act in different countries. American History class involved learning about the Reconstruction Era and issues leading up to present time. Sophomore Caleb Peters said, "I liked Geography the most because we looked 2t maps and they make me feel important." Mr. Dan Elliott taught Government, Psychology, American Hiswry, Econom ics, Sociology and International Politics. While the Government classes studied the U.S. government system, the International Politics students learned the U.S. foreign policy, actions of the United Nations, and current events. Psychology looked at human growth and development, and Sociology covered material over human 1nteract1on and groups. American History began with the Civil War leading up to the present. Finally, Economic students learned the different types of markets as well as principles of supply and demand. Mr. Hornbostel taught The Sixties. In the Sixt ies students studied not only the 60's, but also the 50's, the Vietnam War, and the ?O's. The social studies cl2sses t aught students various th ings which will help throughout high school and later on in life.

Perhaps these classes are "The Sum of All Fears." The school's updated and modern technology has greatly increased the opportunity for students to learn. Technology has allowed students to learn in a stimulating environment unlike many other schools. Students used and learned from much of the technology in math and computer or business classes. Mrs. Holly Jarrett as well as Miss Kim Sherman taught math classes. Jarrett taught Pre-Algebra, Algebra II, Pre-Calculus/Trigonometry, and AP Calculus, wl1ile Sherman taught Algebra I, Geo'11etry, and Statistics. Pre-Algebra covered equations/inequalities, rational numbers, and percents. Algebra II students learned how to solve systems of equations and inequalities, quadratic functions, and trigonomic ratios. The class of Pre-Calculus/ Trigonometry learned real numbers, functions, right triangles and the laws of sine and cosine. Finally. AP Calculus students learned to tackle limits, derivatives, and integrals. In speal!ng of h::r favorite thing about AP Calculus, said senior /\shley Wagrier "l/Je car move at ou:- own speed and 1f we need to spend another day on it Vve can." She1man's Al0ebr=i I and Geometry students learned properties of real numbers, d1f~'crent calculations reasoning proofs, and transformations and similarities. in St cit1stics the class studied hypothesis testing and probability concept s. Senior Alexa Hill said her favorite thing about Statistics was t hat "it's a small class cf all seniors, so it's nice." Mrs. Glenda Kunze taught Comput er Appl1cat1ons I, II, and Ill as well as the business classes of V/orkplace and Marketing. Junior Bryan Olsen said his favorite thing about Marketing class 1s "Creating new adds and listening to Mrs. Kunze." In Computer Apps. I, a required class, students studied V/ord Processing, Excel, and Access. Computer App. II students worked on PowerP01nt, Microsoft Publisher, and Microsoft Front Page. Workplace, an elective class offered only t o Juniors and seniors, helped students explore careers and understa'1d JOt:I 1nterv1ews, preparation, and skills. They also used PowerP01nt present ations.

Coffey allowed students to act out Spanish skits over vanous topics such as news reports, restaurants, and tal shows 1n order to make classes more fun. Fiestas also helped keep students interested.

For example, some students try their hardest t o be the capta ins or presidents of organizations like Drama, Student Council and NHS. In Instrumental and Vocal Music the seniors learned how to influence and push the underclassmen to strive to be their best.

Dontcitions in the form of time help the school in numerous ways. For instance, mciny people volunteer to work concession stands, athletic games or meets, and various other events.
