Students... But what is a bad student? Band Director Jim Burgctt said humorously that the bad students he has known “always arc contradicting him, ask to go to the restroom all the time and can’t even dress themselves adequately.” Mrs. Elizabeth Broyles and Mrs. Pat Glover agreed that There are no bad students, just students with bad habits.” Distributive Education teacher Ms. Julia Fraser said that students that she would classify as bad are often “dishonest, unreliable, and lazy” while Coach Danny Myatt feels that “a bad student often has poor listening habits, no moti- vation, and a short attention span.” GUESS WHO? — One January afternoon an “unidentified source notified the jour- nalism department that none other than Paul Cody — our Coach of the YEAR — could be found in the Cosmetology Depart- ment getting a permanent — and here's the proof!

What Makes a Good or Bad Student? Students? “Good attitude, attendance, interest, and respect is what you find in a good student,” says Ms. Dolores Summers. Doing more than what is asked is what Pat Glover feels makes a good student while Band Director Jim Burgett simply requests that a good student practice, be tolerant of his mistakes, be clean, and like pizza well enough to sneak it into class for all. Other teachers such as Ms. Donna Brainard feel that a good student is “motivated, questioning, and open- minded,” and as Counselor Jeanette Hyatt says, “They see their value as a human being and strive for the best that they can be.” Coach Tommy Solomon humorously requests that “a good stu- dent make As on all his tests.” PIE IN THE EYE - Coach Nallez 'volun- teered to let the cheerleaders build a pie on his head for the homecoming pep rally.

What Excuses are your Favorite? • • • Excuses Every student, at some time or another, has “lost his homework. Some, like two students in Ms. Brenda Zermat- ten’s accounting classes, “lost their homework in the computer.” Teachers were asked to tell some of the excuses they’ve received. Ms. Donna Morehart says that the best excuse was “a bird flew down and picked it up.” A student of Ms. Holt came up with this one: “I loaned it to a friend and she left it in my boyfriend’s car.” Mr. Burgett relates a story about a student whose father was so thrilled by the fact that his son had done his homework, that “he framed it and hung it in the living room.” A student in Ms. Dixie Martin’s journalism class woefully reported that “The typewriter blew up in my face and I couldn’t type the assignment.” HOMEWORK — Teachers have “homework too as Mr. Leslie (left) makes out a report and Ms. Brainard (right) types a test.
