esiringg the Magic It was all an illusion. Or was it? Every- one wanted to be a magician . Mauldin High was a training school for future magi- cians . . . the magicians who held the fu- ture of the world in their hands. The special group of students who at- tended Mauldin High embarked upon the magical journey into the future. The spe- cial curriculum of a blend of A.P., honors, advanced, practical, and special education programs specialized in the individual needs of each student. The students who attended Mauldin High had all of the advantages of a positive learning atmosphere. As students strove to- wards the day that Mrs. Hendrix would hand them their diplomas, each student continued desiring the magic. In tune.

One More Time . English Provides Means Of Communication nother year of English! It started in first grade and won't end until the twelfth. Every year students take English. According to Mrs. Marilyn Hall, English is important because it is the only common means of communica- tion in our area. Maybe one day stu- dents can forget their chemistry or ge- ometry, but they can't forget their Eng- lish! In school, English was important be- cause all classes were based on it. Stu- dents always must refer to English in writing, spelling, speaking, and reading. One student said, You must be able to read and write to pass any class you take in high school. Even after people graduate, reference would be made to English. Everyday this subject could have an effect on a person's lifestyle. A very important part of English was reading. This year the juniors read The Crucible, sophomores read The Grapes of Wrath, and seniors read MacBeth. This reading helped stu- dents understand and appreciate litera- ture, even though some probably didn't see its importance. This should have an influence on student's future and their ability to understand the material they could read later on in life. Many people couldn't bare the thought of another year of English. I hate grammar. This part of English is just repeated over and over again. said Angela Armstrong. So in the future when people are called on to speak, write, or read, they can recall their high school English classes and remember all those things they weren't supposed to forget.
