Go home after school?! Are you kidding? There were too many exciting things going on! Drama club met almost every day after school during the months of November through January to practice for Reserve Two for Mur- der . Many days were spent collecting papers for their newspaper drive. They hoped to raise money to buy equipment for the stage area. The Viking dancers spent hours perfecting their routines for basketball halftimes. Other groups were the Bible Club, German Club, Band and Orchestra Parents, dance com- mittees, and many more. From students to teacher, it sometimes seemed as if everybody were involved in some kind of after-school activity or production. Many students participated by going to dances, football games, volleyball matches, and the like. Others became involved in homecom- ing activities which took up much spare time in float building, practice for class competition at events night, and the climax: the football game and dance. One not-so-exciting thing many students did after school was work. Some after-school jobs lasted into the late hours. It was hard to drag yourself out of bed at 6 o'clock when you had worked until 12:30 the night before. The newspaper and yearbook staffs spent many extra hours in the news room bringing current events and preserving memories for the students at JHS. The senior class planned a bakesale and a paper drive to make money. Many activities went on during the day. P.A. announcers brought us announcements every morning during homeroom. Student govern- ment met every week and involved many stu- dents. Jackson High continued its involvement by donating 161 pints of blood to the Red Cross. Although the total was 10 short of last year's, the 23rd annual JHS drive was a success. Language clubs held two International Din- ners in which members from each club brought dishes associated with its nationality. Parents were also invited and were treated to a variety of entertainment provided by the students themselves. The highlight of the year for some students was the tmusical. Sugar, directed by Bill Bi- vins,.was presented three nights in a row in- stead of the usual two nights of previous years. The hours or rehearsal put in by the cast and orchestra produced an excellent show not soon to be forgotten. No matter what activity, involved students always enjoys themselves. NEVER would we go home right after school! By Jana SeGraves Division - Academics 'E' 1. 6' 4 4, bein 1.-W 1 1 X IES.. 'li ami- ,
