Breaking Out The Inside Story A good reporter is always trying to capture the “inside sto- ry’. What really goes on behind the scenes? There is a red brick building that stands ona hill in which there is always something going on. The average onlooker saw yellow school buses pull up to the school every morning from 8:00 until 8:45 A.M. Students got off these buses and went inside. But what went on after that? Capturing that inside story is just a matter of turning that building Inside-Out. Walking up and down the hall, sometimes as many as fifty times, awaiting the bell which signals the beginning of the day was a tradition carried on by almost every student. Of course, there were the others who just stood at the ends of the halls watching the others making their daily trek. One could deduce a variety of things by just watching. Who was in love with who that week, who had a test, and the shy one who walked without saying a word. There was another group of students who auto- matically went to their class when they arrived and studied or just had a rap session. Then there was the 8:45 bell, all went to their first period classes, some slower than others, but other than one or two, everyone made it sooner or later. After all were settled in, the principal delivered the announcements for the day. Another bell, another class, another subject and so the day went. As if programmed by time, students went on doing what the bell commanded. At the ring of the final bell, the students dispersed and gathered together again before it sounded once more to signal the end of the day. As in any school, reading, writing, and arithmetic were not the only things buzzing around in the brains of the students. The sounds of Michael Jackson, Boy George and the Culture Club, Van Halen, Huey Lewis and the News, and Lionel Richie rever- berated in their minds as they made their way to and from school. Dancing, in every form and fashion, came alive as people moon-walked (originated by Michael Jackson), popped, locked, and Breakdanced, which originated in ghetto street fighting. The movies; Footloose, Romancing the Stone, Police Academy, Greystroke; The Legend of Tarzan, and Sixteen Candles; were smash successes as well as the television movie, The Day After. George Orwell's book, 1984, became popular as the year finally came to pass. Many tried to draw correlations between his book and what was happening in world events. Headline stories in Readin’, Writin’, and ‘Rithmitic doldrum of her homework assign- U.S. and world events were the U.S. forces stationed in Grenada — Robin Banner works on the everyday ments. and Beirut, the presidential elections in which the first black man ran for President in the U.S., the Congress turning down the ammendment for prayer in public schools, the war between Iran and Iraq, and the Olympics held in Yugoslavia and Los Angeles which the Russians boycotted. 2 Inside-Out

Breaking Out The Inside Story Fashions and fads went into full swing as the students turned to mini-skirts, cropped pants, walking shorts, camouflage cloth- ing, and plastic shoes. There were some more conventional students who chose to don their blue jeans, tennis shoes, t- shirts, and oxford cloth shirts. A few of the boys turned to wearing an earring, while the girls gave themselves anywhere from two to five earrings per ear. In these holes were bright, large and colorful earrings. Hairstyles went to an over the ear, short, punk style on boys and girls alike.
