Behind the Scenes Completing a float for homecoming was not all fun and games. Planning was extremely stressful when trying to please everyone at once. The them e for this year's skits was "music videos." The freshmen chose Kenny Chesney's "She Thinks my Tractor's Sexy," and their float was an orange tractor. The sophomores did "C an't Touch this" by M.C. Hammer. Their float was a TV with an American flag on the back.

The juniors skit was to "Baby One More Time" by Britney Spears. Their float was a section of lockers. The seniors m ade a giant soda bottle and they perform ed to N'sync's hit song "Pop." Parents helped by providing materials and transportation. The tasks of building the float and practicing skits were tiring due to the short amount of tim e given. Everybody w anted their idea to be displayed. — Stephanie Arroyo
WHILE OTHERS WORK on the float, senior Ashley Burleson teaches the "Pop" dance to Eric Thaxton and J.R. Frye. Seniors Brittany Persinger and Stephanie Hassell watch as Claudia Campbell and Jacquelyn Dalke stuff the skeleton of their float. Their dance routine, choreographed by Boomtown Babe Captain Ashley Burleson, was to the popular hit song "Pop" by N’sync. That wasn’t the only song the seniors performed to. They had parts from "Step by Step" by New Kids on the Block, "Ice Ice Baby" by Vanilla Ice, "Beat It" by Michael Jackson, and "Gone" by N’sync. Their skit ended with the words "Bye bye bye". It was a busy skit filled with entertainment.

High Tech Students prepare for real world Technology, which is all around the school, has to be a large part of the curriculum to prepare students for their even larger part in the world beyond school. Students gain a new level of knowledge from each class they take. In keyboarding, students are taught how to ty p e correctly. The class known as Business Com puter Information System, or BCIS, teaches students to present themselves and ideas for businesses which use technology. A major tool for BCIS students is the pow er
point, which is forming a notebook with highlighted facts and pictures to make presentations more interesting. Technology students see technology becoming very advanced in school. "Someday soon every student will have a com puter on his desk," sophomore Jami Gilkerson said. Although actually carrying diskettes instead of te x t books will not be happeneing anytime soon, students do notice some changes in school technology. "All of the computers are connected somehow
now," sophomore Casey Plummer said, "and w e only need one password to be able to access all of the assignments w e do on a com puter." The connection of all school computers makes things a lot easier for the whole student body to do research and ty p e up reports. It also benefits teachers, since the attendance and all the teachers' grade books are online now. Students m ay find technology very annoying some times, but mostly students find it very useful and educational. - Adam Walker

UIL EVENTS Students excel in different events A ca de m ic University Interscholastic League com petitions take place am ong Texas schools each Spring. These events include journalism, current events, literary criticism, rea dy writing, spelling, speech, d e b a te , one-act, science, math, com puter science, and accounting. "Participating in UIL can help students excel in school and help with college scholarships," said Mrs. Anne Gillespie, UIL director. "Since our school won the District UIL A ca de m ic title last year a t Wichita Falls High, the team s w ere excited a b o u t trying to re p e a t the championship." According to the official w eb site of UIL, it is the most com prehensive literary and aca de m ic
com petitive program in the nation. "UIL gives students a goal and m otivation to excel," UIL spelling sponsor Mrs. Lorene Teed said. "It also gives them an opportunity to co m p e te for the Ivy League schools, particularly writing, spelling, and argum entation." Before participating in the district level contests, students trained a t the super conference, at practice meets and with their coaches. "Mainly, w e teachers are here to keep the students' spirits up and make it fun for them," Mrs. Teed said. UIL is not just all work and com peting. Students found different reasons to a tten d UIL meets, other than the com petition, "UIL gives me a chance
to m e e t other kids from other schools when w e go to com petition," freshman Crystal W ong said. Sponsors for each e v e n t w ere as follows: Mrs. Teed, spelling and vocabulary; Mrs. Jerrie Sowards, speech and d e b a te ; Mrs. Sheri Brogdon, com puter science, and Mrs. Tammy Bryant, accounting, Also, Mr. Lee Seman sponsored math and calculator application, and jyirs.

College Prep SAT/ACT tests focus on the future As more and more students look to further their education in college, they realize th a t a high school diploma isn't all th a t colleges consider. In fact, entrance is more often based on SAT and ACT test scores. Both of these standardized tests cover a variety of areas. The SAT has a verbal and m ath section. The ACT includes sections in English, math, natural science, and social science. Although these tests are important, few agree th a t they reflect a person's level of knowledge. "Standardized tests
cannot show a person's full range of capabilities," senior Jacquelyn Dalke said. "True knowledge cannot be summed up in one test." Although true that these tests do not take into account one's full range of skills and abilities, scores often reflect a student's ability to succeed in college. School counselors provide a number of learining tools to help students prepare, and an almost unlimited supply of helpful study materials can be found in bookstores and on the Internet. "The number one
test preparatory tool, however," said counselor Mrs. Gloria Bond, "is to ta ke school seriously and to ta ke challenging classes." Preliminary and practice tests are also another w ay to prepare for SAT and ACT tests. "I used an Internet program to prepare for the SAT test," senior Doug Greenwell said. If all else fails, a good night of sleep and a healthy breakfast before the test will help. "Don't forget," Dalke added, "eat your Wheaties!" -Daniel Ramirez

on his Lewis band class.
Two new classes were added to the curriculum, American Sign Language and Jazz Band. Both were specialcase classes. American Sign Language was only open to sophomores and juniors and was only held third and seventh hour. Jazz Band members also had to be in regular band and m et after school until 4:30 every B day. "It was kind of rough going after school every day, but it gave me something to do," sophomore Adam Lewis said. "I like playing my bass guitar."
ASL was held in the Distance Learning Lab, where students took the course through a new video-conferencing lab endorsed by Region IX Education Service Center. Mrs. Marla Boswell was the ASL teacher, but most of the instruction cam e from Ms. Vicky Miller at Rider High School in Wichita Falls via new technology in the distance learning lab. "I have learned some interesting new things in sign language," sophomore Bruce Gilmore said. "I like to expand on mV knowledge and sign." The jazz band
perform ed for the court at the homecoming football gam e and at various comm unity activities, such as the Friendship Park opening and at the Wichita Falls Country Club. "I have a lot of fun at jazz band performances," said Buddy Richison, sophomore. "I will definitely do it again." The future of both of these classes remains in question. Jazz band may becom e part of the regular school day next year, and ASL may be open to more students, according to counselors. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Robert Bishop

Digging Deep History, G a te w a y search for answers Names. Dates and places. Lectures. Essay tests. All of these are closely associated with history, and stereotype the typical high school history course. However, history classes dig deeper than that. Most history classes offer at least one project, such as a m ock trial, debate or guest speaker. Students have the option of taking either the honors or regular track but must ta ke four credits either w ay as required by the state. "I am taking the honors track, and I'm
glad about th a t decision/ senior Ashley Cook said. "It is challenging, but I am learning a lo t / Technology and the internet have definitely a ffe cte d the w ay students learn history. Although most of the work is done in a traditional style, com puters are increasing in im portance in the classroom. This is especially so at G ateway, an assisted learning center where students can learn at their own pace. This program helps students by creating a tense yet accom odating atmosphere for them to learn at their own pace.
"I enjoy G atew ay because it helps me ca tch up, and even g e t a little ahead," sophomore Marchell Groves said. Students in both schools have favorite aspects of history. "It's very interesting because it teaches about why countries developed the w ay they did," junior Anthony Carlson said. Others express a dislike for the traditional features of the class. "I don't like the names and dates, but I do enjoy learning about w hat led us to where w e are," senior Jo Lynn Rede said. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Robert Bishop

Helping Hands Aides provide assistance around campus Departing from the traditional classroom setting, some students choose to spend a part of their school day helping others. Office aides and teachers' aides provide help to faculty members all around the campus. These aides work in offices and classrooms throughout the school, lending their services where needed. Several students choose to becom e aides because they have a free period and do not need a Study Skills class. "I was in Study Skills, but I didn't need the tim e
to do my homework," junior M att Ham m itt said. Students enjoy helping their favorite teachers and other faculty members. They also know th a t being an aide brings with it increased responsibility. "As an aide, I am e x p e cte d to be responsible to do w hat I am told to do," junior Brittney Bilyeu said. "I am responsible for picking up the attendance and for delivering passes and messages to teachers and students." Not only is being an aide a responsibility, but also it is a great privilege.
Students are trusted to assist the faculty, and they work on an honor system because they travel the campus to perform their duties. "The students are supervised and they have to be trusted," secretary Mrs. Kim Caldwell said. Another reason why students becom e aides is to gain independence. Aides do not feel confined to the classroom. "The independence I g e t from being an aide helps because I can g e t aw ay from the hectic school day for a while," Ham m itt said. — Daniel Ramirez

William Fox who served 20 years in the United States Air Force. "Although I never served as an instructor in the Air Force, I like my new job," Msgt. Fox said. "It has a lot more potential as far as
satisfaction, and I receive an influential outlook on the future from the students." The AFJROTC cadets perform ed at football games, p e p rallies, and other school events presenting the colors. Cadets also perform ed in colorguard, drillteam, rocketry, fundraising and physical conditioning. Members c o m p e te d for drillteam in Arlington and Oklahoma City.

Choir helps to d e v e lo p stu d e n ts' p o te n tia l Most organizations help students to achieve certain priorities working tow ard their future. Choir classes range from mixed choir, a class for those who like to sing, but may not have very much experience to A Cappella Choir which requires an audition and some prior vocal experience. Choir, is an organization in which students use developed talent and potential to express themselves. "I really enjoy working with Mrs.Thompson,"
sophomore Bailee Matthews said. "I know someday she will help to turn my talent into a welldeveloped skill that could help me with my career in the future." Students also have the option to co m p e te in several different levels of com petition. "When my love of choir is combined with the intense thrill of com petition, it is absolutely an amazing experience," junior Hilary Couch said. -Krystal Blankenship
TWO SECTIONS OF the choir do warm up exercises before beginning their actual rehearsals for the day. Warming up before class, allowed students to develop
their ability to perform music well. Without warming up first, students not only ran the risk of not sounding well, but also of damaging their vocal cords.

Deadlines dictate students' stress, life
Almost every student has some deadline to m eet, whether it be a research report in English or a science fair project. Students in yearbook and newspaper know the phrase "deadline is next w eek" all to o well. Newspaper staff has a to ta l of nine publications a year. "The day right before the deadline is the worst," junior Adam Walker said. "It's always the day you find out w hat hasn't been done yet." Even though yearbook staff has one
publication a year, it has four deadlines for the 224 p a g e book. "It's cool to see the final product after everyone has worked so hard to m eet all the deadlines," junior Bryce Corsaut said. From the publication staffs, the to p workers are inducted into Quill and Scroll, a national honor society for journalism students. Students must not only excel in journalism, but also be in the to p third of their class. -Krystal Blankenship

Interesting. This one word describes the Lady Bulldogs volleyball season perfectly. After losing six seniors at the end of last year, the Lady Dogs had a lot of work to do and not much time. "Even though we started out slow, we continued to grow and get better," said varsity letterman Amy Taylor. Despite finishing their pre season with 4 wins and 13 losses, the girls persevered to end district play with a 4 and 6 record. "The girls' work ethics are amazing," said Head Coach Linda Richards. "Our record doesn't reflect the hard work and discipline the girls displayed during the pre season and district play. They are so dedicated. They have a love for the game and it shows during practice and in the games."
The style of play at the varsity level was more competitive according to sophomore Meredith Robertson. "You're not just an individual anymore," said Robertson. "Practicing as a team is what counts." Besides having o desire for winning, the girls valued the friendships they acquired most. "The friendships I've gained are great, "saic senior Lindsey Coombes, "We get along both or and off the court." After placing fourth in their district, the girls carry high expectations foi next year's season. "Next year will be much better because we'll have the same team back," said junior Diane Walck. We'll have hac time to become more experienced, and the inexperience of this yeai will pay off for next year." -Meaghan Bradshav

Mr. Leonard graduated from BHS in '72 and attended MSU. "Burk feels like home," he said. "It's a fun place , and I have had good experiences here" To attend more of his kids activites, Leonard gave up coaching three years ago.

There may be better players, but none can surpass you and your love of the sport. Cherish your youth, follow your dreams, and continue to grow as an adult as you have your first seventeen years. We love you; we’re proud of you and we will forever support you in the future. Dad and Mom
Jennifer Lynn Taylor To our Fer Fer, ON YOUR GRADUATION...Look at yourself as you stand among the winners. See yourself as one, belonging to an elite group of individuals, and know that you have accomplished a great success in your life. You’ve taken a dream, added a splash of determination, and created the reality which you hold in your hands today. And as you stand among the future of our world, in that fleeting moment, take time to reflect on the past; On obstacles you’ve had to overcome, and friends you’ve known along the way. Dream of tomorrow; envision with awe all that it holds for you, and be sure that there are no obstacles you can’t overthrow, and that the friends who have been with you will always be with you because the gift of memory will keep them forever alive in your heart. So as you end a chapter in your journal of life and embark out into an uncharted sea, you will treat the uncertain waters with caution, knowledge, and respect. For although you can’t see to the ocean floor, you have the courage to look deep within and make the changes you know you can, the knowledge not to disturb the good that is already there, and the self-respect to be the best that you can be. Love always, Mom, Dad, James, and Brandy

Son, words can scarcely express the depth of my love for you. Please remember that God loves you more~"Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength, they will soar on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." Dad
As one phase of life transitions into the next, with new beginnings and new challenges, God remains a constant source of strength for the road ahead. God has given you the ability, the rest is up to you—believe. We are extremely proud of you. We love you, Mom and Dad Philippeans 4:13
