Some people looked at it as recreation, a time to have fun, but others saw it as a requirement or a must ifthey wanted to graduate from high school. No matter which way they viewed it, students from pre-school through twelfth grade had to take some form of physical education. Physical education was more than just exercise as students got a taste of volleyball, basketball, softball, fitness and weight training, aerobics, soccer, gymnastics and track and field. Upper school students also had a badmitton tournament in all P.E. classes. Wes Kirtley, sophomore, the winner in sixth period singles, said, l played my best game against Tom Brenner. He almost beat me! A lot of students who took P.E. didn't really like the idea of having to take it as a requirement. l wouldn't have taken it if it hadn't been required because you get all hot and sweaty and then you have to go to your next class, explained junior Amy Davis. On the other hand, senior Tom Brenner enjoyed P.E. because it helped to take his mind off things. The students also had to buy a uniform, T-shirt and shorts, of which sophomore Stacy McLeod said, We had to buy it, but we never wear it because nobody likes it. Besides their regular units, each lower school grade had a special unit. First and third graders went skating, second graders took a dive in the Westside Y pool, fourth graders played Putt Putt, and fifth and sixth graders studied canoeing. Unlike their high school counterparts, lower school students looked forward to P.E. Sixth grader .Iay Parker said, I love P.E. because I always have a good time and Mrs. Kim makes it fun too.

Hand From computers to typewriters to darkrooms, the students at P.A. got plenty of hands on experience. ln the kindergarten, every Wednesday was cooking day. Wilson Brewer said, I liked learning about food because we got to eat it! ln the third grade, Mrs. Nancy Massey's class got more than their share of hands on experience. Hatching chickens and building bird feeders and feely boxes were just a few. .Iason Reed, who was in the class, said, We had an incubator and chicks hatched out. We had one named 'Rocky' that got hurt, he didn't die though. lt was neat! Brittany Brosh, also a third grader, made bird feeders. She said, lt was icky because we had to get peanut butter on our hands. rf Another project the class undertook was feely boxes for the blind school. Hunter Beaumont said, We put nuts, fruits, material and things from outside in them. lt was fun, I guess, but our teacher took over too much. lnjournalism, the students had a chance to use a ,darkroom and a typesetting computer. Larry Trussell, a staff photographer, said, Developing pictures isn't hard, it's just time consuming. Chris Craig, spent most of his time setting type. I like setting type better than writing, said Chris. For me it's easier to type what someone else has written than to think up the ideas by myself.
