Pik8rCh Chorus students also competed in contests and performed concerts. I enjoyed chorus most because of the festivals and concerts, said freshman Caroline Frye. But we had to practice hard for at least three weeks before a show, and we weren't able to practice on the stage, so we were never sure if things would go right. Computer programming, in its second year, added a Computer Programming II course. Computer Programming I students learned BASIC and were introduced to PASCAL, while students in Programming II progressed in PASCAL. The programming classes sponsored a Computer Fair early second semester. Students in grades 1 through 6 were given demonstrations of the computers and were shown what computers could do. Programming II classes helped write some of the programs used to produce report cards, which were done entirely on computers. In the spring, fourth grader Robert Schriver joined the class and was able to hold his own with the upper school students. He kept up with everything we did, said senior janet Allen. Everyone who walked in looked at him and asked, 'Who's he?' No one could believe he was in the class.

Pik8tCh Doubling in size from a half-tapto a full size tabloid, the P.A. System staff produced eight newspapers with stories ranging from student pastimes to student troubles. There were stories about black activist Robert Say Mclntosh and Pulaski County Sheriff Tommy Robinson. There were stories about games students played in their spare time, such as Risk and Trivial Pursuit. There were also articles about the trouble of teenage drugs and drinking. Most students turned first to the editorial page to see what new controversy was discussed in the Letters to the Editor. It seemed that in every issue, there was a letter to the editor about school rules or about the male seniors' attraction to freshmen females. Yearbook and newspaper staff members attended the Arkansas High School Press Association Convention in the spring where both publications received superior ratings and All-Arkansas awards, the highest given by AHSPA. Journalism was not all slave labor, though. Yearbook and newspaper staff members enjoyed games of Trivial Pursuit during study hall. It was kind of related to school since it had history, geography and science questions, said Marianne Wright, newspaper staff member. I learned more playing Trivial Pursuit than I did in some of my classes. The annual journalism Christmas party was held in December at the home of yearbook co-editor Nathan Maune. Staff members enjoyed food and music and exchanged gag gifts.
