Ky le Lindquist "I like Spanish class because my friends are in there."

Valerie Maret "I like writing letters to my friends"

In each school year things change. We get bigger, we learn more and acquire more friends. The only thing that doesn't change is that we have lives in and out of the school. This section shows off our lives in class, in the halls and just hanging out. You can see there's more to the school year than just learning.

Webster's Dictionary defines success as "achievement of something intended or desired; attaining wealth, fame or prosperity." Each Dawes student has and is still acquiring those skills needed to succeed. By participating in numerous activities and organizations offered at Dawes, students obtain those skills necessary to achieve excellence . Success has shone upon Dawes this year through the excellent organization of a Valentine's Dance by the Student Council, the creation of a MAD DADS chapter, which promotes a drug-free environment, the selection of the Symphonic Band to participate in the Nebraska Bandmasters Convention, and the continued success of the · Math Counts chapter in area competitions. Dawes is and will continue to guide students in their paths to suecess.

Wood working can be dangerous, put on your safety glasses.

Student Council work hard to make Valentines Day a pecial one.
