tudents everywhere are in need of more money to buy cars, clothes and so many other items of everyday life, Because of this need, many students rely on their jobs to give them spending money and money for their future, Students meet new people, acquire new skills, and earn money from some Springfield staples, such as the places shown here, You never know where you'll run into a familiar classmate!

A popular choice for many students was sports camp. Many of Springfield's talented soccer players took this route and had time to bond with each other and hone their skills.

he summer before the 2003-2004 school year proved exciting for many Springfield students.

Although those who didn't have many plans for the warm summer months may have been looking forward to going back to school, there were plenty of students who were plotting to have the greatest summer yet.

There was an abundance of activities all over the Delaware Valley, but as always, there were those students who were eager to get out of town. Those who weren't satisfied with the typical but lively Jersey shore vacation ventured

abroad to sightsee exotic locales. For those that stayed at home, there were still plenty of cool things to do. The "Vans Warped Tour," the "J ustified and Stripped Tour," and other concerts seemed to beckon students to popular venues in the tri-state area. There were sports camps going on throughout the summer, and the Country Club and Swim Club were packed with kids who wanted a chance to cool down their sunburnt skin.

Overall, the opportunities that summertime evoke give every teenager a way to enjoy themselves .

O

ur school does have a dress code, but it does not by any means limit the styles at Springfield High School.

Hemp necklaces, mini skirts, fishnet tops and the latest sneakers are just a few of the popular styles among students.

Some students are bothered by the code because we must have sleeves, but the majority of students are glad to have, for the most part, the freedom to wear

what they choose and they take full advantage of it. Senior Victoria Gambardella called the styles at our school diverse, which is clear just from walking down the halls. It's obvious that style is based on the individual because of the many different looks that are represented .

Whether it is the "punk" style or the "preppy" style, multitudes of unique trends can be seen everyday .

ne of the biggest events of the year, Homecoming, was held the weekend of September 19, 2003 . Coincidentally, Hurricane Isabel arrived on the same day! School was cancelled due to the state of emergency and students wondered all day whether the festivities would proceed. The decision was finally made to continue with the events, and although the pep rally was cancelled, the dance and sports games were still held Friday night and Saturday afternoon. The semi-formal dance was a spectacular occasion where the announcing of the homecoming court occurred. The court consisted of Dave Lucey, Scott Murphy, Justin Lockley, Ryan Kirby, Bob Spence, and Lianna Miller, Christine Burke, Brittany Fox, Megan Armor, and Brittany Piotti . The members of the court danced

The day of homecoming was filled with sports matches and of course the homecoming football game played against Radnor. After the marching band performed their "Chicago" halftime show, athletic alumni from Springfield High School were inducted into the Hall of Fame . Following this annual ceremony, the homecoming court was recognized and Dave Lucey and Brittany Fox were honored as Homecoming King and Queen. Springfield dominated the game and beat Radnor, 29-22. Touchdowns were scored by Brandon Wesley, Josh Kelly and Justin Piotti. Fortunately, we weren 't stopped by Isabel and Homecoming proved to be an spirited event for all students who were involved.

The orchestra at Springfield High School is more than it may seem . Besides string instruments, there are a variety of others as well. These instruments can range from the trumpets to the violas, each of which playa vital role in making the ensemble continue to have their amazing, and now famous, sound . The orchestra here is so well-known that the members were asked to be the first orchestra in 83 years to perform in the annual Boscov's Thanksgiving Day Parade with Springfield Singers. They practiced the music "The Carol of the Bells" for a month and a half, and then recorded it in a studio. The time finally came for them to be recorded

by ABC's cameras . The day was cold, but they did so well that they have been invited back for next year!

This is where Operation Smile and the Bocay Project come to the rescue. A non-profit national organization, the Springfield chapter of Operation Smile helps raise money for these needy children through both their annual penny drive and by selling cookies.

This group is a confidential organization at SHS that any student can approach to discuss things that are going on in their lives. The Peers, with their advisors Mr. John Gildea and Ms. Amy Long , took the annual group trip to Philhaven for their training weekend. While they were there, they learned many valuable lessons and several skills that aided them in carrying out their responsibility to the student body. The peers also learned how to work together to solve problems and this melded them into a very close-knit group of friends that can help anyone solve their problems.

Gathering in the back field of Sabold Elementary School every Monday, Wednesday and Friday in the fall, the team had lots of fun throwing the frisbee around and playing one of their favorite games. Ultimate Frisbee was not only a great way to get involved in a school activity, but also, it gave students a chance to hang out with their friends while doing something they really love.

For years, the Community Service Club at SHS has been making a difference throughout our town. Whether it's raking leaves for some of Springfield's older residents or organizing the Breakfasts with Santa for Sabold and Scenic Hills, the Community Service Club has been there. The group of about seventy-five has been running and participating in acts that have truly benefited the community. Having Mrs. Descano and Ms. Snyder in the program was a huge help as well. The services done for the community by some of the students is a great way to show everyone they care. Some of the more popular service activities are the May Fair, the Halloween and Christmas parties at a local church, Pumpkin Day at Tyler Arboretum, and mailing holiday cards to the residents of Harlee Manor. The Community Service Club is a great way of giving students a sense of helping others .

In a cozy Springfield home on Sundays, a small but effective group of Springfield High School students work arduously to change the world in their own way. Known as the "Blue and Gold Blanketeers," these community service enthusiasts are a part of an organization nationally known as Project Linus. A national nonprofit organization, Project Linus sews and knits about 500,000 blankets a year to distribute to children in hospitals and shelters. It was during September of 2002 that senior Emily Lesutis learned about Project Linus in a newspaper article and began a Springfield branch of the organization . Since the organization is 100% non-profit, the Blanketeers found ways to get materials for their work. Their fundraising and the money that they personally donated helped accomplish their cause. Despite the difficulties, the Blanketeers were able to create a total of 94 blankets last year from September to December and this year, they hope to increase their production to 150 blankets. These blankets have been delivered to the Eliza Shirley House in Philadelphia and other shelters. Although this will probably be the group 's last year since the majority of the members are graduating seniors, the blanketeers have made their mark on our community.

What exactly is Vo-Tech? This is a question t hat many students of Springfield High School have pondered, but rarely asked . Vo-Tech (Vocational Technical Education) is a program offered to High School students who want to pursue a career in a technical field . A total of 77 students this year have chosen to be involved in this vigorous hands-on experience. They are given the opportunity to study fields in cosmetology , auto-body, cooking , and many other useful programs. Many of these classes are certification programs, meaning that the students take state tests in order to become certified in their chosen field. Students that pass these test are legally able to begin their careers after they complete High School. Many students however continue their learning with a post HighSchool education. Since they must attend Vo-Tech classes for half the school day, They only have time to schedule required classes such as English and Math to fulfill their graduation requirements, leaving other electives out entirely. As one can see, VoTech is an opportunity for students to work and learn, not just to get out of class.

In reality, yoga is a state of mind which depends on the right attitude as well as using one's selfawareness of any mental blocks in order to eliminate them. Many of the people who attend these weekly gatherings often come out feeling refreshed and ready to face their stressful days with a smile and a feeling of inner peace.

While some may find the thought of getting their hands dirty unappealing , others find it to be one of the more enjoyable aspects of creating art. Clay Club, as its name implies, is an opportunity for students to work on independent projects involving clay and ceramics.

So far, students have made fountains, pots, containers, tiles, figures, and even masks. Although the club was only started last year, it has gotten off to a good start with a group of frequent visitors, two of which who are teachers in our school (Mrs. Dannaker and Mrs. Mroz).

Ms. Belton, the head of the club, states that one of the best parts of Clay Club is that a wide variety of people can join . From artists to athletes, this easy going club accepts everyone, which makes it a true example of tolerance and respect in our school.

Flags, rifles, swing flags, sabers, and poles: these are objects that instantly come to mind when one thinks of the indoor colorguard. On Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday nights, the colorguard worked diligently on their routines under the strong direction of Mrs. Bensinger and her daughter, Ashley Bensinger who helps with the choreography of the group . This year alone, the guard participated in nine competitions, all of which they were judged on the overall effect of their routines, uniformity, the position of their feet, and many other small, but important details. To raise money, the group used a variety of different fundraisers such as selling Krispy Kremes in the morning.

For some people, writing is more than just papers for English class and summer essays.

For this group of future authors and poets, writing is an art . Every month, the members of Creative Exchange meet at Borders to share their newest poems and short stories with the rest of the club. Not only does this help them to improve their own pieces, but it also exposes them to new ideas concerning writing styles and expressing their ideas in words. Members of Creative Exchange are also encouraged to publish their works as well as enter poetry and short story contests.

Creative Exchange is also responsible for the Spontaneous Writing Booth at the Celebration of the Arts. Th is year in particular though has been tough for the group, for Ms. Meinhardt, the faculty advisor of the club, has been on sabbatical this year, leaving the club in the capable hands of Jessica Williams and Joann Skaria, the presidents of Creative Exchange .

Advisors Mr. Trout, Ms. Long, and Ms. Belton work with numerous students to help people understand homosexuality and to give much needed support to people who are gay.

Both homosexual and straight individuals are working together to promote acceptance and equality for gays in and out of Springfield High School. Despite its controversy, GSA has taken on an extremely challenging , yet important, task that is sure to help SHS in the future by building a more tolerant and accepting community where everyone can feel wanted.

Athletic Advisory is a unique group of about thirty athletes elected as leaders by teammates on their sports teams. The purpose of the club is to use student athlete representatives to build a bridge between the administration and sports teams . While most students do not realize all the planning that goes into sporting events, the Athletic Advisory worked behind the scenes to make sure everything ran smoothly. The group operated concession stands at home games, worked with administration to keep the fields in shape and dealt with any sports related complaints. During the 20032004 school year, Athletic Advisory had weekly meetings on Tuesdays in advisory and also monthly night meetings. Not only did the students communicate with administration to negotiate decisions within the athletic department, but they also participate in various community service events outside of school such as Charity Runs and the Special Olympics. This student run athletic club also planned the last major sporting event of the year, the All Sports Picnic. Athletic Advisory had lots of fun making new friends and bonding together while successfully making sure sporting events ran smoothly and having a wonderful year with all their decisions and planning .

Coming into a new year and a new season, the girls' soccer team was looking to improve upon their last record. Their pre-season was extremely productive because every player came to practice and put forth their best efforts so that the coming season would be great. Team captains, Tahra Johnson, Laura King and Kristen Rider all stepped up and showed their determination and leadership during both the pre-season and regular season. Although , the girls had a record of 2-11-4, they improved significantly from the previous season . One of the most exciting games of the season was against Radnor's strong team, where the girls lost in a stressful but e xciting double overtime with a score of 1-0.

They proved that as a team they could come together and play until the very end. By the end of the season, the girls scored 14 goals, which e xceeded the two goals scored last year . With the season over and many seniors leaving , the underclass players are sad, but they know that they have to stay positive and be prepared for next season!

These field hockey teams, or rather these groups of friends, have been playing together since their first years on the field in the Springfield Athletic Association. This year's Varsity captains, Megan Armor, Alicia Compton, Colleen Guille, and Kimmi Pitkin, kept the team together through the trials and tribulations during the entire season . Even though it was not what they had expected, it was the quality of the games that were played and won that mattered instead of the quantity . One of the most notable games of the season was a home game against the strong team of Haverford, which ended in a tie. The game truly showed the amount of commitment and tenacity that the girls have . As senior captain Alicia Compton says, "We worked hard and had a lot of fun at the same time . The season, as always, was unforgettable." This team proves that delight and devotion is a perfect combination for success.

Coming into the '03 season, the Cougar football team didn't know what to expect. During the past few seasons, they struggled as a team to win games.

However, with new players filling the shoes of last years seniors, a spark of fire was lit. The Cougars started off the season strang with a big upset over toprated Sun Valley 7-0. The lone touchdown came fram Senior Brandon Wesley who ran back a punt return for the win. As the season progressed, the Cougars got better with each game.

Teams who took them lightly were in for a surprise because the Cougars always put up a fight . The highlight of the season was their 701IIIr _ _â&#x20AC;˘ _ Sports

come-fram-behind victory on Homecoming. They successfully beat Radnor with the final score of 29-22. Seniol quarterback Jason Schatz was a huge key to the win as he usually was throughout the season. One of the many reasons for the Cougar's success this year was their defense. Seniors Joe 0' Shea and Kieran Kelly were vital pieces of the defense as they pushed their teammates to work harder. The Cougars ended their season with an overall record of 5-6. Having one of the best seasons in the past few years, the seniors were able to walk away fram their high school football careers knowing they made a difference.

Over the years, the girls volleyball team has received increased support for their talents and efforts. This year, led by senior Captain Kim Cifuni, they showed everyone that they deserve the recognition and encouragement that they get. Certain games certainly stood out, including the game against William Tenant. The girls were not favored to win this match , but they surprised everyone by rising to the top , along with another amazing win against Villa Maria, who had previously won the state championships three years in a row . The girls defended against and attacked their opponents with spirit and conviction and proved their might to fans and enemies. It was the mix of these skills with friendships that enabled these girls to surpass all expectations . Their cheers of "Hoot-Rah" energized them to end the season with a wonderful record .

Awesome job, girls!

This year, like all years, was tiring for the SHS cheerleading squads. Senior captains Lindsay Stoner and Alicia DeStefano led spirited students through practices, football games, competitions .

The squad is now focusing on honing their skills while learning the values of team cooperation.

The fact that these cheer enthusiasts practice many weeknights and on weekends, while coaching for younger teams whenever possible, distinctly demonstrates the true difficult nature of this sport. From tumbling, which takes years of learning and flexibility, to stunts and physical conditioning, cheerleaders have to know it all and be in shape so that they can look their best in front of the crowd. Because of all these factors, it is obvious that cheerleading is much harder than most think it is .

This year's golf team had both successes and frustrations. The team finished with a record of 8-8-1 . Senior leadership and young talent were the two key factors in these eight wins. Senior co-captains Brian Levengood and A .J. Tomasello were the two most competitive golfers on the team and when they played well, it prompted the younger players to improve their skills. A. J. finished with the best average on the team, while also receiving the honor of being named athlete of the week on September 11, 2003. Brian also performed admirably, as he was the team's only qualifier for the district tournament. He surpassed all e xpectations by making it to the second round. Because of the fact that he did so well in the playoffs, Brian was named the team 's Most Valuable Player . Junior Colin Hiller was third Varsity golfer and made major contributions and played consistently all year . Colin's season was highlighted by his eagle from the fairway on a par 5, during one of the last matches of the season.

Colin was given a coaches award for this stellar play . Rob Levengood was the fourth Varsity golfer and had to compete as a freshman. He took on the challenge without a problem and at the end of the year was named the freshman MVP . Adam Cardell and John Govanicci were also notable members of the Varsity team. Both of these young golfers took great strides toward success and showed glimpses of a promising future for the team. This year's golf team had the ability to come together as a unit and achieve some pivotal victories.

The long bus ride allowed them to bond and become strong . They had enough strength to run from Belmont to Rocky Run in Philadelphia and then to Franklin Field to run the steps . "It was tough but fun at the same time" says boys' captain Bob Spence. Some highlights the team said they had was the pool workout at the Springfield Country Club, Penn State, 5 sec. head start for Bob Spence at a meet, handshakes within the teammates, pre-run pound.

The girls' tennis team this year was very successful. Unfortunately, the girls were without home courts for quite a while due to renovations, but they managed to play one game against Strath Haven on their new courts. The girls practiced for about two hours everyday at Meadow Green Park. Their hard work was clearly visible through their four victories against Ridley , O'Hara, Bensalem, and Chichester. The captains, Nida Qudeer, Michelle Roche, Brittany Wright, Annie Miller, and Adrianna Borgia, led the team to a final record of 4-8. Adrianna Borgia and Brittany

Wright, along with Nida Quadeer and Annie Nida, played in the Central League Doubles, while Nida and Annie also played in the Central League Singles.

Despite some losses, the girls proved that they were powerfully competitive players. This year's coaches, Mr. Kenney and Ms . DiPaulo, enjoyed coaching this fun group of girls, who quickly formed a strong bond. The feedback they gave each other and their teamwork enabled them to excel beyond belief.

The boys' wrestling team had a great season this year. The team had a great combination of both young and old wrestlers. Seniors Chris Senkow, Jessie Gronlie and Steve Shillady led the team as captains. They were strong examples of what leadership is, aiding their team with many key wins throughout the season. The coaching staff of Dave Pecunia and Steve Mazurek also contributed greatly in the success of the team this year. The coaches worked hard with their team, through training and conditioning, including long runs and hard days in the weight room. Their dedication to the team was shown by the devotion and hard work of the boys. The beginning of the season brought in many young wrestlers, including freshmen, Steve Armor, Scott Hayes, Charlie Blue and Pete Costa. The season started off with a tough loss for the team to West Chester East, but, luckily the boys went on to have a huge win over Great Valley, ending in a 36-32 win for Springfield. The boys worked hard after their loss and proved to everyone the great qualities and potential this team had.

Although this season had its ups and downs, the boys had many close matches where they came out on top . An example of their capabilities was their Marple match. The boys had the support of their school in the gym known as "home to the cougar wrestlers." They came out looking strong and ready to win. The match was close the entire night but the boys pulled through and came out with an amazing 39-31 victory.

There were also many other key matches and tournaments that proved what the Cougar wrestlers were made of. Junior Sean Reed and senior Joe O'Shea helped the team greatly with their many pins throughout the season. Freshmen Steve Armor and Scott Hayes proved their capabilities as young wrestlers with many big wins also. The wrestling team had many great memories throughout the season and they stayed tough all the way. Next year will begin with the loss of five seniors, but the growing strength and experience of many young wrestlers will result in another great season!

Everyone expected the boy's basketball team to be good this season, but nobody expected them to exceed all the goals that were set for them and dominate as much as they did. At some points during the season, especially after starting off 10-0, the team seemed untouchable. The boy's did lose though , and tough losses too, like the first loss to Ridley, but they persevered and showed there ability to bounce back and continue to win big games . They responded after the Ridley loss by simply destroying a Conestoga team who was supposed to be a powerhouse. All year the boy's were an unstoppable three point shooting team.

Captains Justin Piotti and Wes Rowlands were always dependable from the outside. Senior Scott Murphy was a consistent performer underneath for the Cougars. Other senior leaders were Steve Botta and Brian Levengood who were almost the sixth and seventh starters for the team and were rel iable contributors coming off the bench . Juniors Randy Roberts and Mike Shirley always found the open shooters, while sophomore sensation Dan Geriot led the team in points and got a lot of attention from the other team 's defense.

The Boys winter track team fought off the frigid weather as they competed for gold this season . One of the many challenges of winter track is dealing with the harsh conditions. No matter if it was raining or snowing, the boys were always on the track or the streets trying to improve their time. Their constant hard work and determination helped them through the tough winter weather. This year's squad was very productive as three of its members made the cut for the meet of champions.

Justin Lockley, Joe Starecky, and Steve Gualberti were all invited to this prestigious event. Individually, both Lockley and Starecky were able to keep ahead of the pack most of the season . Their times were consistently in the top three for each event they participated in. With most of the team coming back next year, Coach Holloway should be looking f orward to another dynamic season with, hopefully, a few more medals.

The Ice Hockey team began their pre-season with high hopes of earning the Central League Title after being runnerup for this award last year . The off-season was grueling and difficult sessions of power skating and training camps prepared them well for their upcoming season .

Below For Right: Junior Jono Ori swims towards the finish line .

The boys swimming team came in to the year knowing that with a lot of hard work and determination good results would occur. The team as a whole might not have done as well as they planned, but individually the boys stood out among the Central League. Senior captain Wayne Williams helped to lead the team with his positive attitude and consistent contributions.

Juniors Jack Cook and Jason Chrisanthon both successfully made district cuts. Other standout members of the squad were Jono Ori and Joe Hamer.

Even though the team may have not won all of their meets they knew that they gave their best effort every time. The boys were able to stack up against some of the best teams in the Central League and prove to them they weren't going to quit. With the amount of talent returning next year, the boys team plans on leaving their mark on the Central League .

The girls swimming team proved their talent individually and as a group this year. Captains Maura Cullen and Christine Burke knew that there was a lot of talent on this year's team , but in order to achieve success they had to figure out how to use it . Newcomers to this year's squad made big contributions . Freshman stars Natasha Hakun and Kate Manning tore through the competition. Other members of the squad that made important contributions throughout the season were Kassandre King, Corrine Clemetsen, and Tricia Wenke. A few school records that Natasha individually broke were the 100 meter backstroke, 50 meter freestyle, and 100 meter butterfly. Other school records broken this year were the 200 meter medley relay by Kate Manning , Natasha Hakun, Corrine Clemetsen, and Tricia Wenke as well as the 400 meter freestyle relay by Maura Cullen, Natasha Hakun, Corrine Clemetsen, and Kate Manning.

Throughout most of the season the girls were undefeated in the 400 meter freestyle relay in the Central League. Important wins during the season came against Marple and Sun Valley . The team looks forward to more success in the following years thanks to the talent of the younger classes.

Her bookshelf includes everything from classics like Shakespeare and Coleridge to romance and mystery novels . Mrs. Dannaker says that her students' writing inspires her "all the time", and when asked about her favorite memory of SHS, she couldn 't choose but said instead, "Working at Springfield High School has been a dream come true for me. Being a teacher here has surely been one of my purposes in life ."

Soon after their first day, they were Ashley Agren invited to join the many clubs, Ishfaq Ahmed sports, and activities offered here Alyssa Angelos at SHS at the Freshman Activity Day, which allowed them to relax and realize the unexpected doesn't always have to be bad . Although Matthew Anglim high school is overwhelming, the Melissa Antonik new friends they make and the William Archambo classes they have taken have Steven Armor assured them that high school is a great new experience!

eXamining the future junior class of 2004 For many juniors the completion of this year is seen as a great accomplishment. No longer do they feel lost in the halls, or see unfamiliar faces; Springfield High School has become a home away from home. Together they have enjoyed their very first Snow Dance and gathered at the Renaissance hotel for their Junior Prom. Each junior has completed a year crucial to their future, whether it be searching for a career or higher education . The SAT and PSSA tests were taken with great efforts. Many even challenged their minds with a variety of AP courses and exams . The friendships that began three years ago have strengthened and will return next year for their final chapter .

aking on the noble endeavor of preserving this year's memories for decades to come is not as simple as many students and teachers believe . Being a part of the Scrivener staff means dedication and the will to stay after school for long hours of hard work . Luckily for the editors, these hours are not only filled with creativity and many goals to achieve, but they also tend to be full of

enjoyment and laughter.

The yearbook room has become the staff's second home and the members are like a second family.

From late September until the middle of March, editors worked enthusiastically so that they could meet the many deadlines. Once the pages were completed and sent out to be printed, everyone had a sigh of relief, knowing that this yearbook has turned out great.

boys'lacrosse In the beginning of the season the boys' lacrosse team knew that they were going to have to battle for each and every game, For the first time in many years they were forced to rely on the underclassmen because of the lack of seniors on the roster, However, this did not stop them from achieving their goal of making the playoffs, With an 88 record, the Cougars headed into the playoffs with high hopes as they faced West Chester East, Even though they lost they learned a hard, yet important lesson which will hopefully contribute to next year's success, Top far right- Junior Jeff Moore takes advantage of the situation and heads for the ball, Top right- Coach Mike Friel advises Junior Brian Christopher to attack the net to help the cougars score quickly, Right- Sophomore John Ciavarelli positions himself on defense as he tries to take the ball away from his opponent,

girls' lacrosse This year's girls' lacrosse team was able to capitalize on the success from their previous season. Led by senior captains Laura King and Tahra Johnson, the girls were able to become the uncontested Central League Champions after an easy effort against Haverford High School.

However, their true talent was tested during the District Championship game against Great Valley. After a great back and forth effort by both teams, the Cougars were able to remain on top and win the championship for the second year in a row. The team's success truly relied on a solid defense and an explosive offense. The defensive leaders for the lady Cougar's were Tahra Johnson and Maura Cullen while the offensive leaders were Laura King, Kate Keegan, and Beverly Broome.

boys'track

The boys' track and field team have had a great season.

Many of our boys have stepped up their running, jumping and throwing abilities to face the competition. The few juniors left will have to try to fill running shoes of leaving seniors that will be greatly missed. With the many new faces of freshman and upperclassmen, they will hopefully try hard to catch a win next year. Despite the boys' coaching problems, they still stayed strong and had an unforgettable season. See you next year boys!

he girls' spring track and field team put out a tremendous effort this season. Although narrowly missing a winning season, many of the girls have tried to show a positive attitude for their teammates. Next year will hopefully be a better year. The team will really miss the seniors next year and they will be hard to replace. On the bright side though, there has been an inflation of freshman. The freshman have worked hard to be as great as they can be, and as nice as they are. We can look forward to them being a nice addition in the upcoming season.

The Freshman Class of 2007 went to their first official High School dance on November 15th, 2003. Decorations covered the walls in the cafeteria and balloons filled the ceiling. The night was filled with free drinks, pretzels, and great music. This night will be remembered by many freshmen as one of their greatest High School memories.

The wide variety of dresses was quite appealing and the girls showed off their beauty.

While the boys were dressed nicely as well, they took pictures near the girls so they would look better.

Students enjoyed a wonderful night and left with incredible memories.

The Junior Prom was held at the Renaissance Hotel on the night of April 16th. On this beautiful night, many people took their group pictures outside and enjoyed the nice weather. When the students arrived, they were directed to a gorgeous ballroom where about 50 or so tables were set-up. They enjoyed a light dinner of chicken with vegetables and for dessert chocolate mousse. After dinner, they carried the night away on the dance floor. Even though it was only three hours of their Junior year, it will certainly be one of the most memorable.

senIor prom As May 7th rolled around, the halls of Springfield High School were buzzing with the gossip of the upcoming Senior Prom. This event has become one of the most anticipated events of High School for seniors. It is a time to reminisce about the wonderful memories they have made in their four years as students. This is one of their last chances to make many more unforgettable times. The boys looked dashing in their tuxedos while the girls looked ravishing in their gowns.

After a delicious dinner the class danced the night away. There were many tears when the last dance occurred. The theme song to this years Senior Prom 2004, ''Time of Your Life" was a perfect ending to a magical night. We hope they had the time of their life during their four years. This was their night and they as usual every senior was glowing.

six hours for Stefani 218 . . . .

_III â&#x20AC;¢

second annual Steven Stefani Dance Marathon was held in the SHS Blue Gym, Students, staff, and community members came out to support those who would be dancing six hours straight without sitting, Excitement rose as each hour of theme music passed, on the way to finding out how much money was raised, By the end of the night, everyone's feet hurt, but their hearts were happy knowing that the money was going to aid in children's cancer research, Over 18,000 dollars was raised, which was a great accomplishment, Keeping the beloved Mr, Stefani in mind, everyone made it until the end and had a great time dancing the night away for a great cause,

godspell This year's musical at Springfield High School was "Godspell," "Godspell" is a modern day re-telling of the parables of Jesus, It is full of upbeat songs, lessons to learn, and told in a modern day translation that everyone can understand, This performance was spunky, exciting, and was made realistic by the characters in the play, The musical was performed by a cast of eleven musically talented students from March 18 to March 21 in the Knorr Theatre, The setting consisted of a wire fence, and just a few props, The cast became very close over their long weeks of practicing, and they are very glad that they were able to perform "Godspell" together,

the laramie project At the end of April, Springfield High School put on a production of the play "The Laramie Project," "The Laramie Project" is based upon a series of interviews with the people of Laramie, Wyoming, immediately following the brutal beating of a local college student, because he was gay, The huge tragedy that befell Matthew Shepherd's community with his murder serves as a warning to us all of what can happen when people are intolerant of other's differences, "The Laramie Project," as Mr, Gildea said in his speech before every performance of the play, is not a pro-gay play, but rather, an anti-hate play, The message of "The Laramie Project" is to respect other's differences, no matter what those differences may be, This was a message that the majority of our community needed to hear, and this play definitely changed some previously negative

attitudes, It brought an important and muchneeded message to our school: that of acceptance of others, Those who saw the play now possess more accepting attitudes toward others, and those who were involved in it will never forget the experience or what it taught them,

commencement

Friday, June 11th, our school had to say farewell to yet another Senior class. After marching down the aisle to "Pomp and Circumstance," the ceremony began with a few opening remarks

by Dr. Kelly. Once she had finished, a few of these talented seniors gave us some words of their own. These four seniors were Scott Murphy, the class valedictorian, Gil Breingan, the class salutatorian, Kimberly Pitkin, president of student council, and Katherine Lemon, the winner of the essay contest. Followed by these spectacular speeches was the presentation of the Senior class gift by the class officers, which was the addition of new chairs to the Knorr Theater as well as new central league banners for the gym. Scott Murphy, Lisa Bongiovanni, Mike Thompson, and Mike Young were also honored with scholarships. The presentation of the diplomas soon followed as well as the annual post-commencement party behind the school along with food, drinks, music, and of course, fireworks.

Left: Kimberly Pitkin's speech encouraged the audience to enjoy every moment of life, no matter how small, for it is these moments that one will cherish in the future.
