bove the ordlnar Day to day life sometimes seemed to become a bit ordinary on campus After the first few weeks of school we all found our our new classes friends and teachers But when late October came around students and teach ers began to Rise Above the Ordi nary and do strange and not so common things. What brought about this change was Homecom- ing Week starting Monday Octo- ber 24 through Saturday October 29. Student Council chose an ap- propriate theme Q Rise Above the Ordinaryl for this spirit-filled week. Preparation for Homecoming began months in advance when classes got together and started planning their floats. The design for each float had to be decided and hundreds of paper flowers had to be made. When it came down to the wire the final touches were put on the floats a few hours before showtime the game on Fri day night ties taking place for Homecoming however Other activities included dress up days during Spirit Week Kicking off the week was Hawa11anfCamera Day on Mon day. Many doubles were seen around campus on Tuesday as friends paired up and dressed as twins. Wednesday was Slob Day with some students dressing casu- ally and others dressing in their grubby clothes. Thursday people decked out for military Day and the week ended with the tradti- tional Red and Gold Hat and Sunglasses Day. During the week lunchtime games and contests added to the spirit. They created a relaxing at- mosphere of fun and excitement. O I I O Spirits rise high- O v. 31, Qnbnuug,,,,,,,,

Friends transform into look-alikes Spirits shine throu h Another traditional event was the Wednesday night pep assem- bly, Flash,'. Clubs, classes, and individuals put together off-the- wall skits and dances. The fresh- man class gargled to The Blue Danubev, while the sophomores did a spoof on the Richard Sim- mons Show. The juniors portrayed a typical day on the way to school and a classroom scene. The seniors did a Twilight Zone skit demon- strating how Mr. Robert Moore would conduct his classroom with Valley Girls Spicoli from Fast T1mes and Barbarino from Wel- come Back Kotter. Flash ended with the senior guys pom line do- ing a dance to the song Eye of the Tiger which was followed by a slide show.
