SPECIAL EVENTS SPECIAL EVENTS. The year was a busy one as the students were active in the many James River High special events which satisfied and developed their varied interests. Many of them did not leave the school building when the three o ' clock dismissal bell rang, but stayed to prepare for the school ' s events. The events provided learning, light-hearted fun, and relaxation for members. Any student interested in an activity was free to join if he could meet grade requirements. The various events aimed for the future, opening the doors of new interests for many, and benefiting the school as a whole through their activities. The students gained satisfaction in participating in class tournaments, complet- ing a project, or earning applause on the stage in front of an audience during a class play. Events served an important part in our daily life by opening new fields of interest and encouraging new friendships. They provided entertainment, but more important, they taught us to work together. Leadership and co-operation through group activity and organized fun came from this participation. 153
