Kr -sf? S' 'J it -0' ALWAYS ENCDUGI-I TIIVIE Siudenis Pciriicipoie in Aciiviiies ot enough spare time? Ha! School took 40 hours a Week, leaving 128 hours to spare. Exclude eight hours a night for sleeping and that still left '72 hours of spare time! Some students maxi- mized those 72 hours with various activities. Kendra Jones used a great deal of those hours taking judo lessons. She said, When I went to my first class as a visitor, I thought that this was really weird, but I gave it a try, and now it is a very important part of my life. Jamie Wheat and LaNae Jackson filled their spare hours with dance classes and teaching. James Hyatt spent his time rappelling. Many oth- er students used over '72 hours for a sport that was highly participated in, hunting. Most of the cross-coun- try runners' Saturday mornings and after school hours were used up for practice and meets. One runner, Frank Rivera, stood out by taking fourth, fifth, and sixth places in several meets that had over 50 participants from other schools. These spare hours were taken by activities other than sports: movies, parties, and shopping were always taken into consideration when thinking about what to do with spare time. I don't shop as much as I want to, but I never miss a good party or movie, said Ashley Phelps. So whenever thinking, I don't have enough spare time, think twice ,,,,,.. ay. . M 1.
