the wall of the girls’ bathroom of our
AMY MARSH own school.
The craze with Beverly Hills 90210
swept the nation including Ralston.
Some found our school, namely the
I senior class, was similar to the one on
the show, but there were still some
differences.
Many of the differences were mere
oversights to the senior class. Kelly
Watson and Andy Powers, both
Similar seniors, said we don’t have the money
like they do. Junior Dave McKeman,
Seniors who went to Beverly Hills last
summer, said he saw “a lot of nice

all get along and we hang out with our
class more than the classes around us.
Sophomore Rachael Smith said,
“Everyone talks about how close the
senior class is together.”
Smith said that her class was getting
a little closer. In regards to
McKernan's class getting along and
closer in the future, he said, “I really
