(Above) Computers Come To Bexley J by Margot Kyle With the opening of the school, came the opening of a computer lab, The Write Place. Located in the old typing room on the first floor, 28 computers and 19 printers made an instant hit. Under the direction of Michael Hartenstein, the lab was open for seven periods a day, with an English teacher present each period to provide assistance with writing. Sign up sheets located in the lab assured students computer use or tutoring. The arrangement worked well and the demand was so great that students occupied the lab before and after school and even on Saturday af- ternoons. According to teachers, students became more inter- ested in writing; grades went up and a positive attitude was had by all.

Activities Are Successful by Margot Kyle Homecoming, prom, Torch and Lamplight — all of these were a part of Student Life. School related activities added to everyone's day. Seventh period everyday Bexleo and Torch staff members met to work on their publications. Writing stories, working on layouts and crop- ping pictures were a part of every day activities in Rooms 109 and 110. Meetings were held at lunch time and after school for committees organizing Homecoming and Prom festivities. Groups worked to select music and decorations for both events, trying to involve the entire student body. New and old clubs worked to gain support. Peer coun- selors and SADD held dances and assemblies to gain new members and community support. The teen center, the Outback, provided many student activities which en- hanced student life.
