Summer Is Born A slow, hot wind wandered aimlessly over a summer-drenched world. Here in school, June was a somewhat hectic month. Although after exhausting exams we were hardly inclined to even leaf through a textbook, we did scramble frantically to end up with the right ones on book-exchange day. The Senior Prom on a mid-june night was one of those rare occasions that make life beautiful. Three evenings later, seniors again had a very important moment-the graduation ceremony, at which the tears of a new beginning flowed freely. Suddenly the fervently-wished-for last day of school was here, and with report cards in hand, freshmen. sophs, and juniors, poured out of AHA without a backward glance. September would come soon enough. But seniors did not rush out quite as recklessly as usual. It was a day of goodbyes -to teachers, to the school, and to a well-known way of life. Then only one lone senior remained. She walked pensively to the front entrance, gazed into the bright day, and closed the heavy door behind her a final time. Vale Holy Angels.
