Getting accustomed to the bell system and trying to locate the right room was a little difficult the first few days of school, as shown by Janet Tisch, who hurries into English class before the last bell sounds. Already adjusted and ready to work are Alvin Crosby, Karen Dennis, Vicki Burley and Linda Dickerson. New School, New Faces, A sense of being lost seemed to lie like a fog over the first day at the towering, new Clarkston Senior High School. Students rushed from class to class with a look of expectancy etched on their faces. Everyone had to see everything, from the immense gymnasium to the wonderful world of books to be found in the library. The thought of learning had new appeal and presented a greater opportunity to each individual. There were faces that were familiar and faces that were new, but the strangeness of the opening day shrouded these thoughts in your mind. Vastness of opportunity lay in the days to come and all of us realized this, but not in the perspective in which our first year turned out . .

The vastness, operations and many functions of a school are rarely realized by one individual. A high school such as ours with its own government, its own administrators and its own affairs is a community in itself. In order to create an impression of the variety of our community, a student and adult representing every organized effort in our school system are represented here. Everyone from the class president to the leading characters in our plays, every club and every social event, every stop in our tour around the school is represented for you.
