Questioning Faces O As students entered the building on September 5, their faces registered many expressions of intellectual curiousity. Even though students spent a few minutes greeting their friends, many of whom they had not seen since June, most prevalent in their minds were questions such as — “Where is my homeroom?” “Who are my teachers?” ‘‘When can I change my schedule?” The guides selected from the cheering squad, girls’ basketball team, and SCA helped to alleviate the problem of finding the assigned homerooms. Once in homeroom the state of inquiry diminished, for the many long awaited answers were finally at student’s finger¬ tips. Mixed emotions prevailed as teachers reminded students that the first three weeks of school would be only three days long. This was great news for some, especially those who would have missed school anyway in or¬ der to harvest tobacco, but for others the ‘‘harvest days” represented ‘‘time lost” which had to be ‘‘made up” later.

I Election of Class Officers When students returned to BSHS for the 78-79 school year, they had to choose new class of¬ ficers. The students running for election from each grade-level met one week before the elec¬ tion was held to draw up slates. There were thirteen seniors interested in seeking office; however, they could only come up with two slates, causing three unlucky persons to be knocked out of the competition. As for the juniors and sophomores, they also had two slates running. The officers were elected by their classmates in their grade- level. Homerooms also had to elect two representatives to report back to each homeroom what happened in each meeting. Senior class officers were: President, Julie Oliver; Vice Presi dent, Anthony Pulley; Secretary, Sandra Hawkins; Treasurer, John Russell; and Reporter, Yvette Goldsberry. The junior class officers are: President, Lawrence Majette; Vice President, Paula Thompson; Secretary, Karen Bruce; Treasurer, Dan Avent; and Reporter, Brenda Coleman. Leading the sophomore class were: President, Sherry Goldsberry; Vice President, Mary Goldsberry; Secretary, Shirley Harrison; Treasurer, Francine Morgan; and Reporter, Sharon Graves.
