Mauricio Olague, Class Of ’81: “I have several accomplishments, I won the city wrestling championship 3 years in a row, I designed the cover of the yearbook for the year I graduated in, and I got an award for a story I wrote for the Bowie Growler. It felt awesome to succeed at a goal that you have set for yourself.”

Before They Were Teachers

The Growler asked some of the teachers here at school what kind of experiences they had when they were still attending Bowie.

 

Mementos

Whether it’s an old photo, a worn down teddy bear, or just a memory, there’s something everybody has that reminds them of the good old times. As we are preparing for the departure of the Class of 2018, we asked a few seniors what momentos they hold close to their hearts.

 

Childhood Dreams

Seniors are not the only students with memories. We asked several students what they wanted to be when they grew up.

Antonio Guerrero, 9, says he still wants to become a police officer because “they get paid good.”

Melanie Tavares, 9, wants to pursue a career as a math teacher. “I wanted to be a math teacher, because I love helping others with what they don’t understand.”

 

Freshman Mistakes

The Growler asked some seniors what mistakes they made at school back when they were freshmen.
