The school and its students are involved somewhat through sports programs, service clubs and organizations. One major concern of our community is the lack of students attending school for their education. Sports is believed to be one of the attractions for enticing students to attend their classes. Also, peer pressure is having its affect upon the students and their attitudes. Many of the experiences that a student has, good and bad, has been the result of peer pressure. Friends' opinions influence most of our activities and decisions. This pressure is evident in sports, school activities, and scholastic achievements. People of our community possess definite opinions of Marysville High School and its students. These opinions vary from an acceptance of our lifestyles at school to some disapproval. Disapproving individuals were quick to suggest ways of making the needed improvements. Suggestions ranged from building new facilities, a change in the teaching staff, improved educational materials to having the students take an interest in their education. Though some opinions were not kind, most of the people of our community had something positive to say. Everything is not perfect at Marysville High School, but our community has its hometown pride in our school and its students. l T 1 i f-if . - s l 3 l Ii.. -Ji,,,3,, sg as a tg em ,ft , 2 .1 5925 f - Er 719' fi 45224 g , 5?

Looking at Marysville High School and its students from the outside, a person may perceive an extremely different picture from what we students observe. The use of the word outside is meant to symbolize the people not attending or working at Marysville High School. These people may be from Linda, Olivehurst, Yuba City, or Marysville. All of these people have differing opinions of MHS and its students. Do outsiders feel that the students are intellectuals, or are we alcoholics and dopers? ls MHS involved with the community and its people? Overall, the feeling of the community seems to be that Marysville High School has improved over the past few years. A maior factor in the change was the split between Lindhurst and Marysville High Schools, creating a smaller student population. The split of the schools has made possible a better communication between the administration and the student population. The community has not been faced with reading the headlines of the newspaper telling of race riots and other maior problems that once confronted Marysville High School. Marysville High School and its students face some problems, but nothing that cannot be solved or improved. The people of our community feel that some changes must be made. One parent commented that the lack of new facilities is not creating the right type of environment in which to learn. Students at MHS who must share books while huddled around the radiators with their coats and 4 mittens on would agree with her. One bright spot for all of us was the building of the new gym and its surrounding area. The building of the new gym is a step inthe right direction. The teachers of Marysville High School do not escape criticism by the community, either. There is a general feeling that the teaching staff should be carefully examined and some changes made. One individual stated, Some of the teachers no longer care about the students and I feel that is not the right attitude for a teacher to have. However, this statement pertains to only a few instructors that teach at Marysville High School. Now it is time for the stuaents to take their knocks . The community has some very definite opinions and images of students. One image, which may be a bit surprising, is that the students of Marysville High School appear wt 1. 4'- ' ', 650 the special f p gf K iwii f ff ZX' VX' J YV V -7- J , ff lf! . fl - X, Mffff' P i ,Y 7 'H ' T I JMX' I Zta- T ff' gf .1 - . .seeee rim t T W if ,' ,U ' I ' I i.

Are we no longer attending school for an education and preparation for the outside world? Some parents seem to think that we are not interested in an education, but only our sports activities and social lives. But, not all of the opinions about MHS were in the negative sense! Our enthusiasm and outstanding school spirit has been noticed by those outside of the school. The spirit of Marysville High School is said to be unique in the sense that none of the other local schools are thought of as being spirited . continued on next page
