Yes, it's time for registration again. It was August 22, 8:00 A.M., and the juniors and seniors began to arrive. Be- ing old prosf' thest two classes registered together, and approximately 1000 stu- dents were finished in only two hours. Junior Heather Ashman stated, I was glad to know that we were still able to choose our own classes and teachers? Southwest is the only school in the Fort Worth Independent School District to allow their stu- dents to register like this. Other schools just place stu- dents in classes. At 10:00 A.M., the sopho- mores gathered in the audi- torium. When they were through, the teachers were able to have a break for lunch. Nervous freshmen began filling the auditorium short- ly before 1:00 P.M. Await- ing them in the cafeteria were the Student Council and National Honor Society. Dressed in formal attire, so they could be easily recog- nized, they came to lend' a helping hand to those fresh- men who were confused or having problems. I thought registration was very confus- ing. I was glad the older stu- dents were there to help us,', said Freshman Kim Ham- mond. Through all the chaos and confusion, this year's regis- tration turned out to be a great success. Sophomore Misti Aebi commented, I thought registration was really fun.
