lfte h i Students take off in many directions The four o'clock bell rings, the door flies open and the students charge out into the halls running wildly. Throwing the books into the lockers students can be heard asking. . . Do we have any homework? Do I need my history folder? Should I take home my research paper? As students walk out the door of the school each one goes in a different direction. Doing his best at his job, junior jerry Koerner works at a local grocery store. Relieved school is out for the day, Freshman Mike Watson heads out to the bus. My evening consists of working, Senior Tisha Wright said. People who do not work, but are more concerned with school, have different ways of spending their evening. Homework is the main topic for Freshman Stephanie Thomas.

u.T'n'ivtQ lhe lY1iclw'iglwt Qik You're up! You can't slee . You have just joined the many students who have stayed up another long night to complete that 10 pa e term paper or to study fir tomorrow's semester exam. Cramming is one of the ways many students spend their nights before tests. They challenge themselves to see how much they can learn in one night. l usually study for my semester test t e night before, David Stowers, senior, said, and hope for the best. Cramming is not the only reason teenagers stay up late. Having a 'ob after school seems to take up a lof of the lARGi Battered Popcorn 8. Medium Drink Burning the Midnight Oil time for homework. The only time to do anything is in the wee midnight ours. My job takes up a lot of my time, Mandi' Dougherty, sophomore, sai . Sometimes l don't get home until 11:30 or midnight and I still have homework to do. Other students participate in school activities that re- quire burning the midnight oil. Band, choir, speech, drama, FFA, journalism and other students often work way into the night to com- plete their specia projects. So, when you're up doing history at 12:30 a.m., it might make you feel better to know that there are other people doing the same thing. Ringing up a sale, Sophomore Mandy Dougherty is forced to save the homework until later as she spends the evening working in the concession stand at the Five Points Cinema. Practice makes perfect. Tuba player Mike McBroom, along ' with other marching band members, keeps rehearsing into the evening to perfect the halftime show. One more time. Drama students Craig Adams, lanel Gibson and jeff Britt go through a scene one more time to add the polishing touches to The Shadow Box. 'ff f f
