You may begin now. Did this sound familiar? For most juniors the PSAT test was their first exposure to standar- dized testing, and their first step towards college. However, it was not their last. Many juniors then took the ACT and SAT tests. The PSAT was not as hard as I thought it would be. It was hard in a way, but not like in class. — Scott Nowlin, 1 1 I thought that it was difficult. English was the hardest because I didn ' t know what half of the words meant. — Heather Russell, 1 1 The English part was the toughest, but the math was easy. — jim Breeden, 1 1 luniors Aeron Williams and jason Brady prepare for the PSAT with a little help from a computer program designed especially for the test. Juniors found that colleges were beginning to send brochures that gave information concerning their schools. Many scholarships were opened to in- terested students. How important were the tests to juniors? It ' s very important. It ' ll bet- ter my education, said Junior Jerry Baker. Junior Lori Thomas sa id she was taking the tests because if I get a good score on them, it may result in a scholarship to a good college. Most juniors felt that taking practice tests were the best way to prepare for the tests. Since the ACT and SAT tests were a college requirement, juniors took the tests to get into tne col- lege of their choice. Many juniors felt that doing nothing was another good way to prepare for the tests. As Junior Erik Skulstad said, I want to see how good I can do on my own knowledge. by Lynda Cullen Juniors PS

......................................J Helping others K Pauline Holzhauer Sandra Travis What do you do after school or in your spare time? Play sports? Eat? Watch TV? Or do you use that time to help others? Some people help through candy striping. This was a volun- tary service at the hospital for girls from 14-18. For awhile the Why did you choose to become a candy striper? I applied to be a candy striper because it sounded fun. I was interested in seeing how the hospital was run. — Pauline Holzhauer, 1 1 I chose candy striping because it was something to do. I ' ve been working at the hospital since September. — Sandra Travis, 1 1 iUNIOR CANDY STRIPERS: Front Row: Katie Housel, Melissa Harris, Lori Wacl er. Back Row: Sandra Travis, Pauline Holzhauer, Melanie Harris. only benefits from this com- munity service were self- satisfaction, experience, and community recognition. Just this year an additional benefit of 1 2 of a high school credit for every 90 hours worked was added. Sophomore jenny McGee who has been involved for a year and a half, said, I like to help people, and I am interested in becoming a nurse in the future, so this gives me some experience. The training Jenny and others like her had to go through was one night a week for two weeks. The Candy Stripers also had a trial night where they acted as gophers to get to know the hospital better. Candy striping wasn ' t easy. Busy all the time. Sophomore Amanda Campbell said, It ' s especially hard when you ' ve had a bad day, and you don ' t want to be here. You ' ve got to go into the patient ' s room and put on a smile, even if you don ' t feel like it.
