"The Class of '88 will separate and perhaps only meet again at their reunions; The Preamble of the Constitution and DesCarte's rule may be forgotten, but the memories of good times and great friends at LCHS will remain forever" - Esuerc 1988


Class Song:
"Never Say Goodbye" - Bon Jovi

Class Flower:
Red Rose

Class Motto:
"The past cannot be changed, so remember the good times, and know that the future is what you make of it.

Remember...
Your first party, the Van Dyke Drive-In, Dak Pudlo's truck, your last Homecoming, champagne on the ceiling on New Year's Eve, the Court dance when Stacey Wright's crown kept falling off, Heather Locke's parties, never winning the Homecoming Spirit Week, the College Tour, the Island Parties, the football team being Blue Division Champs, being able to wear shorts to school when it was really hot, winning the float contest your last year (repairing the float at 6am), the fight at Beth Johnston's party, taco pizza day, hugs in Clark's class, Government sentences, deciding on your future, thinking high school would never end...
