First day establishes routine for new year It was a day of discovery; it was people, excited and alert, greeting old friends and deciding that the strangers didn ' t look too bad. It was August 29, the first day of school, the earliest that school had ever opened. To formally open the school year, students and faculty gathered in the stadium to hear Dr. Venable ' s welcoming speech, to note the do ' s and don ' t ' s for the year and to evaluate their companions and surroundings. Class rivalry was born as students competed for enthusiasm and volume in their cheers. The unquestionable senior victory foretold their dominance during the coming year. The first days of school were Seating chart blues. Students stand and wait to sit down while study hall teacher, Mrs. Joyce Thompson, assigns seats. Keep it. Kathy Gilliam reluctantly accepts from Mr. Gary Waynick her Latin textbook on the first day of class. 22 First day of school spent for the most part in homeroom, paying fees, filling out endless forms and sweltering in the heat. Soon, however, the students reported to their classes to meet teachers and receive books. Of course, it took a while for bewildered sopho¬ mores to find their way around with¬ out being caught by the tardy bell. The excitement of the first day of school gradually subsided into mediocrity. As newness faded away to be replaced by familiarity and even boredom, the freedom of summer was thought of with yearning. The end of the first week brought home¬ work, club meetings, sports events and new friendships. The routine for the remaining thirty-five weeks of school was established.
