As school began this year it was apparent that things were going to be different. The new school was not quite finished as the lack of furniture, grass, pavement and athletic fields proved. It seemed to make everyone a little apprehensive. The modular scheduling was really no problem as far as remembering classes went. However, students and teachers found themselves scheduled for classes not taken, and not scheduled for classes taken. Many students did not realize that their unscheduled time was meant to be used for independent study, and that it was not really free time. As a result the first nine weeks grades were low. For many students they did not improve much all year. As the year progress it was apparent that something was missing in our new school. The new school did not make everything go right. Our athletic teams were not doing well, and there seemed to be a lack of school spirit and pride. More and more rules were being laid down without explanation, and as a result the students became more rebellious. The commons and hallways were in a constant mess, a little too much for the one janitor. The building was being tom up, and the school as a whole was being abused. It seemed a viscous circle, the more rules, the more rebellion, and then more rules. The seniors especially felt the brunt of the situation. As seniors they were to be leaders, but with the lack of senior privileges they felt like the rest of the underclassmen and acted that way many times. Finally, as students and teachers alike became upset with the way things were going meetings after school between teachers and students were set up. Many problems were talked about and many gripes were heard. Most often talked about were attitudes, privileges and the commons area. Only one thing was really changed because of these meetings, and that was afternoon homeroom was done away with. However, as suddenly as they started the meetings ended, and we never knew exactly why. GOALS OF EDUCATION Provide an environment which helps students. Parents and other community members demonstrate a positive attitude toward learning.
