Is school spirit lacking at DHS?
by Jeanne Freed
During my years at DHS,
I have seen the school spirit
drop to nearly nothing. It
really is a shame because
our school has in its walls
900 students who have to
have the spirit of 9,000.
Doesn’t anyone care about
what happens at our school.
For instance, our dances
have been almost complete-
ly lacking in student in-
terest. We had to be threat-
ened with the possibility of
no dances at all before 150
people would sign up for the
dance.
Another example is the
class plays. More parents
and relatives show than
students. After all the hours
of work, it would be nice for
your friends to show some
consideration. They do it to
earn money for our class
activities. Just a few weeks
ago, a perfect example of
apathy was displayed. Fri-

day was S50’s dress up day.
Only about ten people
dressed in that mode. If
everyone had become in-
volved, the day would have
hit an all time high in spirit
for this year.
Remember the pep
rallies? The first one is so
great the beginning of the
year. Our spirit was really
high. Then, when the
seniors seemed to be on a
losing streak, they lost all
spirit, and the whole school
began to cool. If the seniors
have adopted that ‘“‘who
cares’ attitude, why should
the underclassmen feel
down? After all, the seniors
are supposed to be the
school leaders, but who
wants to follow leaders who
don’t care about anyone
except their own little
‘thing’.
Personally, I am not able
to attend all school activities
but there are those who
refuse to give their support
Staff heads of the 1977
Emerald Yearbook of Done-
gal High School were
announced Friday by the
Junior Class. Ann Stud-
holm, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Isaac Studholm, R.D.
#2, Lititz, was named editor-
in-chief. An honor student,
Miss Studholm is active in
the band, chorus, dramatic,
and athletic clubs.
Hollis Baker was picked to
be assistant editor-in-chief.
Girls camp is open to girls
who will be in grades 7-12 in
fall, 1976. Boys who will be
in grades 6-12 are eligible.
Both camps cost $35 for
the week. All campers get
free insurance, camp shirts,
film instructions, and litera-
ture.
Girls camp instructors in-
clude Mimi Senkowski,
ax
to anything but themselves.
One cannot expect to attend
all activities. But when you
have a choice of supporting
your school or walking
around feeling bored, there
should be no question as to
where you should lie.
It is up to us, so let's see
some improvement. We
have only one chance to
being young and free before
settling down to jobs or
college, and it really is to
our advantage to have fun
and enjoy our high school
life. Come out and join
something, and get the ex-
perience that you will carry
with you throughout life but
then it will be simply
memory of the ‘‘good ole
days.”” Remember, we are
only young once, and that is
now. We are the future
leaders of America. In our
hands lies the well being of
this country, and if things go
on as they are doing, we
won’t be having a 300th
birthday.
