Was a typical reaction of many sixth graders on the first day of school. Many sixth graders were con- fused about where to go because they were not used to having six different classes everyday. The rotating schedule added to this confusion. But after the first few days, they had the hang of it. A Core class consisted of Language, Reading, and Social Studies classes. These classes were taught by Mrs. Du- Bose and Ms. Beckstrom-Sternberg. It stinks! was Shawn Houston ' s response to having a Core class. But Jim Hartigan liked it. Most of the sixth graders hated to get up early. Terri Clark hated it because it made her tired all day long. But getting out at 1:05 made it easier to accept. The sixth graders liked it because they had more time to do things after school, such as homework and seeing their friends. P.E. at Jurupa Jr. High was also very different than in the elementary schools. Many of the sixth graders enjoyed this class. They didn ' t mind dressing out ev- ery day because they didn ' t get their school clothes all dirty. 6TH GRADE 19 W

It was three consecutive classes with the same teach- er which included Reading, Social Stud- ies, and Language Arts. M Mrs. Eula DuBose was one of the Core teachers and had taught Core for many years. She was a yearbook teacher for five years, but when her schedule was changed, she had to drop it because she was assigned two sets of Core classes. Ms. Roxanne Beckstrom-Sternberg was also teaching Core. She taught Core for the past three years and added P.E. and Advanced Reading. Both stated that they enjoyed their Core classes because they developed a more personal relationship with these students. This year ' s Core classes appeared more mature, punctual, and conscientious. 6TH GRADE 21
