What’s Hot in the Classroom? If you ever forget the Pythagorean Theorom or how to use it, just ask one of the math wizards on the Math Olympaid team. One member comments, “Math team problems are so hard I don’t see how they do them.” The Senior and Jr. Honor Society groups again manned the concession stand and ticket-taking at volleyball and basketball games to raise money. This year they decided not to take a trip at the end of the year, but instead to raise the scholarship monies for the graduating seniors. The Paper Annual Staff spent the year working hard, laying out quad-packs, fund raising, slaving over a hot waxer, meeting deadlines iust to put out the school aper and yearbook — All for You! It’s an elective that offers many insights on how to write a news story, do reporting, and get involved in the behind the scenes of putting together a newspaper and yearbook. Electives offer more than just the freedom of choice of a few classes. They open doors to learning about different subjects, from tootin’ in the band to computin’ with Mr. Reade, from learning how to draw, to marking thought-out answers — wrong! Some electives branch out to national organizations such as FFA and FHA. 23

Academics fall into two categories — requirements and electives. Teachers have done all they can to help us learn, though some students would call school the worst kind of torture there is! Electives such as band, choir, journalism, computers, and business classes help ease the pain. But every class has homework and that is another matter altogether. Students will say anything to get out of doing the nightly duty. But to get your diploma you have to do the work. Work does have its rewards, you know! There are high anxiety level courses such as math, history, English, and science that we all must get through. They prepare us for participation in groups such as Math Team, Honor Society and Science Club. And electives often take away the sky-high stress levels. Band and choir give us something to enjoy for life. Computers and vocational classes give us skills we can use forever. Art and drama help us appreciate the world from a new perspective. However you see it, though, school wouldn’t be school without those never-ending ACADEMICS!!!
