Four Nights Of Orientation Begin Year At New Paris High. s summer vacation slowly rolled to an end, everyone began to dread their hour of regis- tration. Seniors started it on August 19. Before students were allowed to receive schedules, they had to attend an orientation program where rules of the new school were detailed. The other three classes followed the same routine on the following three days. ON THE following Monday, August 26, busses began to roll, and school was officially begun. Mr. Tommy Alspaugh, Mr. Billy Douglas, and other faculty took on an extra occupation, that of bus driver. Busses were a new conven- ience for students of Paris High School this year. ALTHOUGH classes were offi- cially started on August 26, there were students who began weeks earlier: Blazettes, band, cheerlead- ers, and yearbook staff all began work early with hopes that this would be the best year ever. Foot- ball also got off to an early start when Paris area doctors gave them free physical exams. FOR OLD students, many changes were made. The library became the Learning and Resource Center and was no longer a quiet, peaceful place to read or study. A closed campus disturbed people because once again they had to go back to cafeteria-style lunch. This meant that eating out was now off limits. However, the snack bar was a help to satisfy appetites. AFTER THE first few weeks every- one settled down to the routine of going to school. The familiar say- ing, Well, here we go for another year, could be heard from stu- dents everywhere. However, it did take some of us longer to find our classrooms and the lounges than it took others.
