We're proud of our accomplishments because we hav e w orked hard to stand out at West Oranee Hich

r™ -I chooljOutTo high school students, the summer repre­

sents freedom and fun. If is a time indepen­

dent of torturous tests, homework, and

parental nagging. When SCHOOL'S OUT, we

travel to far away places, work, go down the

shore, and party with our friends. We regard

the summer with a certain amount of

respect, because it never fails to bring us fun

and happiness. As the school year ends, we

look forward to the freedom and happiness

that is the essence of summer.

best summer, because all summer I looked forward to

coming back to school."

It's 7:45, the start of another school day. The hallways are bustling with students, who rush to their lockers AND home­rooms, trying to avoid being marked late. As we settle into the grind, each of us resumes the role of diligent students. We're working hard all day to make the grade. For many seniors, the 2:20 school bell means the day has just begun. Some of us constitute the school's clubs and organizations, while others are ath­letes, working to be a source of pride for their team. Still, much of our senior class uses their spare time to help others OUT through volunteer work and community involvement. The senior class is an admirable group of students who are involved in various activities in an effort to better themselves and the school.

On November 2,2002, as snow dusted the football stadium, the WOHS annu­al Homecoming game took place. Hundreds of students, faculty members and parents packed the stands to support the Mountaineers, and to see the crowning of the homecoming queen, and for the first time ever, the home­coming king.

This year's nominees were Charla Bullock, Kristen Spagnuolo, Joyce Esquerre, Marcelo Rodriguez, Angel Martinez and Vasanth Alii. Preceding the fabulous half-time performances of the Marching Mountaineers and the Varsity Cheerleaders, the Homecoming ceremony began. With a thunderous roar from the crowd, Charla and Vasanth were presented their crowns as the 2002-2003 Homecoming queen and king.

Following the ceremony, the second half of the game was played. Although the Mountaineers were not victorious, the team displayed admirable enthusi­asm and dedication throughout the season.

Football games would not be the same with­out them; they pump up the team and rile up the crowd.The WOHS marching band and color guard are among the best in the state. The stu­dents that make up this band have achieved this through hard work and dedication. They start practicing in the summer with a rigorous week at band camp, which is the beginning of countless hours they spend marching, practic­ing, and playing.They participate in many com­petitions and have won many awards and hon­ors. Our marching band is a fine example of how commitment can lead to amazing results.

The jazz band is one of West Orange High School's premier performance groups. It is com­prised of the school's elite musi­cians who are selected to par­ticipate after rigorous auditions.

The drill team steps into action.

The drill team is one of West Orange High School's most hardworking and enthusiastic groups. The ladies on the team have spent countless hours prac­ticing their steps to ensure that their tim­ing is sharp and their moves are perfect for their performances at six basketPall games each season. The three captains are Shauna Deans, Colena Golson and Monique Grahm. The drill team is a source of unity and friendship for its members, and is a rewarding activity that encourages school spirit.

The men's dance/step team made its debut this year. With Mr. Farley as its advi­sor, the team worked extremely hard to create dances that employ complicat­ed rhythmic patterns and showcase advanced dancing skills. The team brings together a diverse group of young men, and fosters the creative development and companionship of its members. The step team hopes to earn honor and respect from the West Orange High School community, while improving school spirit and student morale.

We worked diligently throughout the school year, because we wanted to produce a year­book that would be treasured forever, know­ing that it is the single most tangible item that we take with us after graduation. Our intent was to create a keepsake that captured the essence of the class of 2003; we wanted this book of memories to be everything hoped for by our classmates. Our goal was to ensure that when we all look back at our yearbook, we would undoubtedly see that it reflected the lasting impact of the class of 2003. When choosing a title for the yearbook, we sifted through many ideas, and after much delibera­tion, decided upon a theme that seemed most appropriate, '03 Strikes and We're Out, We are certain that our yearbook represents the unique members of our senior class and our vast accomplishments.

Over the past four years, the senior class has come together AND formed bonds that will last a lifetime. Some of us grew up together, while others first met in high school. Regardless of how long we've known each other, WE’RE all a part of an unbreakable entity. As time passes and we continue on our life paths, the only rem­nants of our high school experience will be memories.

Through photos, we've highlighted the events that holistically shaped our high school experience,Each picture serves as a reminder of who we were, who we are and who we will become. While we all represent the class of 2003, each of us stands OUT, as an individual who has con­tributed to something great. As we move on our way, we hold dear the memories of the people who have shaped who we are.

Years of dedication and practice have transformed them into the fine athletes they are today. Because of their achievements, WE’RE all proud to be Mountaineers, Their talent, dedication and commitment make our varsity athletes stand OUT.

The faculty and administration have played a large role in shaping our high school experience. Throughout our years at West Orange High School, we have had extraordinary teachers who have direct­ed, assisted, AND inspired us. Each faculty member has had a part in developing our talents, and guiding the ambitions of our class. Not only do they motivate us in the classroom, they go above and beyond the call of duty to show us that WE’RE all unique and important. Through advise­ment and coaching, they have served as undeniable sources of encouragement. Each staff member has impacted our lives in more ways than we can count. When we head OUT on our own and look back on those who helped make us who we are, we will remember our dedicated teachers.

Dear Members of the Graduating Class of 2003,

As you know, this is my first year at West Orange High School and you have been quite instrumental in making it an extraordinarily good year for me. 1 have had the good fortune of interacting with many of you, and these interactions have all been very positive. You are a wonderful group, and I know that you will do well in your future endeavors.

As you reflect upon your time here at West Orange High School, I am confident that you will realize that the faculty has prepared you well for the challenges ahead. You have received an education that will enable you to wisely use your knowledge, skills, and abilities in solving problems and making choices that will affect your lives.

In this fast-paced new millennium, now more than ever, it is extremely important for you to be prepared for the demands of the workplace. It is my hope that you will go to college, graduate and experience further success. Your education is an investment in yourself. It will return many lifelong dividends on several levels including cultural, financial, and personal.

In closing, I ask you to dream your dream, set goals for yourself, and do your very best. With determination, perseverance, and commitment, you will realize your aspirations. My very best to you as you begin your new journey. May life be kind to you and may you be well, happy and successful.

Yearbooks serve as invaluable sources of memories to graduates. We will cherish ours AND forever look back upon the priceless reminders of what we will recall as the greatest years of our lives. Yearbooks, however, are very costly to produce. WE’RE certain that this yearbook could not have been made possible without the gener­ous support of parents, students, and local businesses. Precious time taken OUT of busy schedules made our yearbook as successful as it is. On behalf of the Class of 2003, we would like to extend our most sin­cere gratitude.

EDUCATION

Definitions: the field or process of teaching or learning; the teaching establishment; “that which discloses to the wise and disguises from the foolish their lack of understand” (Ambrose Bierce); organized but sometimes synthetic experience.

Quotations:

Only the educated are free. Epictetus, Discourses, 1st century.

Next in importance to freedom and justice is popular education, without which neither freedom nor justice can be permanently maintained. Representative Janies A. Garfield, letter accepting Republican Presidential nomination, July 12, 1880.

To the strongest and quickest mind it is far easier to learn than to invent. Samuel Johnson, The Rambler, September 7, 1751.

A child mis-educated is a child lost. President John F. Kennedy, message to Congress, January 11, 1962.

1st Day o f Preschool w ith s is te rs Dana and Laura

Dear V. Anthony,When you were bom, our family became complete and we started our journey through life together. Throughout the years, each of us smiled with pure joy as you reached for your goals, accomplished them, and became the young man that you are today. There were times when we needed each other and it seemed like the world was against us. It was during these times that our family became what it is today. Anthony, all of us are tremendously proud of you and we will continue to be with each step you take after graduation. Remember, if you have it in you to reach for the stars, then no one can stop you and all of your dreams will come true!

Congratulations! We love you,
