2' John thought about the length of the class period. They're too long. The district should make a policy to shorten class periods to 30 minutes instead of 50 minutes. A look of distress came over his face as he thought '41 about teachers always giving their boring lectures. lt used to be where you went into a classroom, got your books and did your if i i l r it g, r y ,E N 5' - ' 1 'srt fi J I K ie. 0-wi?

You go in there and get nothing but don't do this and the mats are dirty or why aren't you dressed down? Yeah, and then they start talking about when they were in school and how well-behaved they were. Never did anything wrong. They never got the mats dirty, and they never had the teachers yelling at them, because they had better discipline and respect. Fading out of his daydream, John barely caught the teacher reminding the class to study for the next test. The teacher went back to discussing obtuse angles and theorems. ln the midst of a geometric conversation, the bell rang, and the students got up and left for their next class. John went to his next class, where he sat in the third seat in the first row. The teacher began her lecture, and John's eyes began to follow the long crack in the wall ...... l. ls the light ofthe past better than the darkness of school routines? The student daydreamer escapes from reality to find the answer. 2, Even though MHS and LHS have split, MHS student Keith Saylor and LHS student Terry Bonson stay ioined in a ROP automotive class. 3. Old facilities in the Field House contrast greatly with the new Lesta H Joubert Student Canter Locker rooms. 4. Trying to keep old venetian blinds looking presentable, Ms, lrene Dewitt cleans a window in which students may daydream through. 5mfef'2if5'l' T4

I S E', 't S W ifi ... . ., A sr' ters Being a student of MHS, I was very concerned with its physical state, so I took the school down to the doctor for a check-up. After the exam the doctor came out of his large, well-equipped lab and I detected a slight scowl. Hey Doc, how is MHS doing? Did it pass the physical? Well son, I have given it a complete check- up and well... Well what? Is something wrong? Yes, there is something wrong. From what I have observed there are a few small problems. But with a little help MHS will be back on its feet in no time. Whatcom the people of MHS do to help it? To answer that, Iet's observe MHS's medical chart. By this I will be able to go right along and tell you 'the good' with 'the bad'. I will go over each system thoroughly. Let's start at the top with the nervous system. My main concern with the nervous system is the brain. The brain is vital to life, where many decisions are made and much mental work takes place. What takes place in MHS's brain is determined by the principal and his staff. They are the central control of all MHS. Just as the brain transmits messages to the rest of the body, giving them signals of what to do, the principal's staff carries orders to the teachers and students. Doc, don't you have any good news? 72 special H mmm . 515 f iff - ff l f lf . ,uf 71 .gf lb., till llilillllllllllllkl xslt llMx.lt . I :ll ISN -IN-X I ,,,MHS. - lfswl-gf. -if I .
