Well, September rolled around, as it always does, after a much-too- short summer of beaches and parties. Because of unfavorable weather (Remember Hurricane Gloria and the early October frost?), and limit- ed free time, beaches became far less popular during school than they had been in June, July, and August. But parties didn’t depend on weather, and somehow we always found time for them. In September, the old crowd got together to celebrate seeing each other again, moving up a grade, and having had a wonderful summer. Some of us talked and laughed, some took pictures, some danced, and some even fell back “in love” with the “creeps” we’d given up for the. summer. We played a few new games, played a few old games, played some new songs, and played some old songs. Overall, the party was fun, though somewhat depressing: summer was over. One friend decided that two months could not pass by without a party and, with Halloween as an excuse, had a costume party. The same crowd played music and danced, and a few even did the limbo in costume. . As each holiday came up, a new excuse to have a party was formed. At Christmas, we got together and exchanged gifts. On New Year’s Eve, we counted down ’til midnight. In April, we had a spring vacation. party. Some parties had themes, such as toga parties and. Hawaiian parties. For some parties there were no specific occasions to celebrate, just a desire to have fun. At last, June approached. Graduation and summer approached. Fin- als approached, too. But even terror over the upcoming finals didn’t stop the group from partying. The seniors had their after-the-prom parties, passing-the-finals parties, and graduation parties. The juniors had their “becoming-seniors” parties. Everyone partied. But then, after a year of constant hard work without any fun, everyone deserved to party.

Hi! I know that history is not one of your favorite words right now; I under- stand. But really, this section is impor- tant. It has a special reason for being here. The history section is, in a sense, a memorial to our closing school. This was a very special year for all of us, and Clas- sical has always been a very special school. This section is designed to explain how we have been special over the past ninety years. But, although the history section deals with the past, don’t be surprised to see a few familiar faces. It is not only the teachers and students from 1897 to 1985 that made Classical great, but also the students of 1986. We, as Classical stu- dents, share a trait with all the students of the past: we have spent our high school days in the most run-down, dusty, special old school there is. Aithough we com- plain about its appearance, Classical will always remain a part of each student’s memory because each of us was a part of it. Ninety years of teenage memories echo in its halls. I think that ours have been the best. So enjoy the history sec- tion that follows: you may find that the past has been only a prologue to the best years of your life. -Nancy Kienzler History Editor CLP si anne Saaeue History i
