Adam Zolciak, lason Hurley, Erest Brancheau School Helpers Take on New Challenges ost students sat around in study hall helping themselves to better grades, but lab and library workers put in an extra effort to help out the school. The students who did this devoted their time to help out the science teachers or helped keep order in the media center. How did one become a lab or library assistant? All a person had to do was ask a science teacher to be a lab assistant, or ask Mr. Palicki to be a library helper, and wait for them to check out past records, such as grades and behavior. Most lab and library assistants took the job to be with their friends or to get out of study hall. Lab assistant Kelly Mulherin stated, Being a Lab Assistant was more fun than just sitting around in study hall. The favorite jobs of the lab assistants were grading tests while the least favorite was cleaning the counters because they were chemical stained and a lot of scrub- bing was required. Library workers had a different tone of work. The jobs mostly dealt with clerical work such as filing cards and getting books in order to be put on the shelves. Of the various jobs in the media center, the most dis- liked job was shelving; no one preferred doing it. The most enjoyed jobs for the library helpers were delivering pass slips and carding books. Many people became library workers for an extra half credit or to escape study hall, but some students had different reasons for working at the library like Carrie Riffle who stated, ttl worked at the school library for ex- perience so I could get a job at the Bedford Library dur- ing the summer. Library worker, Adam Zolciak stated, I enjoyed work- ing in the library because it gave me experience for media work and I got to see all the new books; not to mention the half creditf' All the lab and library assistants did their work during their study hall period with the ex- ception of those working in the library instead of gym due to an injury. Taking on new responsibilities and learning new things were some of the things lab and library assistants learned. 6i

The two bands combined received 3713 and 20 11's at the Solo and Ensemble Festival. The ratings ranged from I to V, l meaning excellent performance and II meaning good. Freshman Kelly Fisher said, TI went to Solo and Ensemble for a new challenge and for some more learn- ing ability on my instrument. The bands also did well at the Christmas, Spring and Festival concerts. We did a lot better at the Christmas concert than I thought we would , stated Symphonic Band member Suellen WiIson. The Festival Concert was played in preparation for the District Festival on March 1 5 where the Symphonic Band competed for a rating and Concert Band III for comments at Festival, the bands had to play a march, a required piece and a selected number. Students also enjoyed band for reasons other than music. The trip to Cedar Point and the Pizza party helped to liven up band. Freshman Symphonic Band member Michelle Smith stated, The best part of band was the trip to Cedar Point at the end of the year. CPncen Band III: from low: Alyson Lein, Darlene Eisenmann.
