A lot of students showed their school pride, and the day ended with a great Pep Assembly. Thursday was Beach Bum Day when many stu- dents came to school ready to hit the beach. A sack lunch was served, and we all pinicked out on the football field. Volleyball and frisbee games added to the beach- like atmosphere. The week ended on Friday, the day before Hallow- een, and lots of brave teachers and students wore costumes. 75

One of these programs was ESL, a class in which our foreign students were taught to speak English. Another program which improved a different type of language difficulty was the speechflanguage program. Some oth- er special education programs were Chapter 1, Support, and the Rillito Center. The Rillito Center, an on- campus class where mentally and physically handicapped students ac- quire the education they need, was one of the newest programs. AJHS also had REACH, a class in which students advanced in English and So- cial Studies can challenge their skills through special projects and reports.
