Frosh dons varsity uniform Showcase One spirited Spartan who was really involved with school activities was freshman Laura Beeman. Laura played volleyball and basketball on the varsi- ty teams which is a unique accomplishment for a ninth grader It took a lot of determination and hard work but Laura was set on making the varsity teams. I really wanted to make the varsity teams, especially for basketball, which was her favorite sport. Laura practiced two hours after school and played in two games a week; she also spent a lot of time practicing on her own. I went to the courts and practiced on my own trying to improve a little more each time. At first, Laura received ridicule from her teammates. I used to hear plenty of freshman jokes. After a while, when her teammates realized her playing skills, they considered her just another member of the team. I never let my attitude get me down, I went out and showed them how I could play. Laura proved to be an excellent player and she looks forward to wearing the Spartan ' s uniform another three years.

When he talks, they listen Showcase Freshmen are generally very curious and interested in what goes on around them. They ' re astute and very alert, explained Mr. Jerold Siperstein, Algebra I teacher. Mr. Siperstein has taught freshmen for about ten years out of the 24 he ' s been teaching. This year he had two classes of Algebra I in which there were about 65 freshmen. He felt freshmen lacked a certain amount of commitment towards their academic classes, but still they were very normal. In the Algebra 1 classes, he taught how to solve problems with algebraic expressions. He also taught them the basic algebra fundamentals. I enjoy teaching freshmen because it gives me a break from the rigors of chemistry, said Mr. Siperstein. Though they were not as mature as juniors and seniors, Mr. Siperstein felt that they listened to him when he talked.
