Our faith in God is what set us aside from our local schools . Each morning there was mass in the chapel at 7: 15. Also, every morning first period began with a prayer welcoming God into our day. We had several masses throughout the year. The major masses were at Thanksgiving and Christ mas. Easter was also a great celebration . We had reconciliation twice this year. Our faith didn't just involve going to mass. Once a year each class is involved in a retreat that the N.E.T. team runs. Throughout the day we participated in skits, played games , and organized a class mass. Assumption joined together as a commu nity of believers. This special bond makes As sumption what we are.

By The Ti.me Thi.s Kni.ght Is Over Below: Senior and junior Turnabout couples anxiously await the big dance . by Taleigha Tamayo The Student Council held the annual Turnabout dance on January 21. The scene was set with streamers , balloons, and good tunes ; now all the cafe needed was the students. To set the night in motion most couples had pictures taken at their houses, and then headed to dinner. After dinner the dance was the place to be! Dimmed lights and wild dancing couples flooded the dance floor. Fast and slow music expressed the overall mood for the evening . "I've never had so much fun at a dance! Jumping around and just letting loose added to the dance excitement ," said Sophomore Ellie Hoeg. A quietness hushed the room as the ten candidates were escorted by their dates. The ten Turnabout candidates were Tony Bradley, Duffy Conroy , Andy Craig, Ben Driscoll , Art Gillespie, Mark Norton, Jim Ryder, Ryan Sunderbruch, Sean Whalen, and the 1995 Turnabout King, Kevin Prior. Surprised, Kevin gave a short speech, of course doing his best impression of Jim Carey which he is known for. The big night came and went, but for all who attended Turn about '95 the memories will last forever. Above : Erin Missel and Shannon Wagner have a great time with their good friend Jerry Kelly.
