OLICIES BORED TO DEATH, Courtney Diggins passes time during lockout in the cafeteria. — Z?e Se xc , ff LATE TO SCHOOL Trials of Transportation Coming to school at 7:00 in the morning is never fun. Especially if you miss your ride. Ever try walking to school in 20 degree weather? Even when the weather is warm you have to find a way to get to school - if you can ' t get there, why en- roll? The majority of the Clay upperclassmen either drive to school or catch a ride with a friend. Problems can arise when the driver or passenger is late. Senior Maureen Butler drives four people to school every day and says, The one bad thing about having to drive other people to school is that when you ' re already a late person, it makes you even later. Maybe those that complain HURRY SCURRY . . . Juniors Bryan Zubler, Greg Mueller, and Joe Moody are seen here racing the clock. ought to ride the bus. not everyone can catch a ride with Mau- reen, or drive them- selves and live too far to walk. Although many students abhor the idea of riding the bus it is comforting to know there ' s a ride if you need one. Junior Willie tieiden drives to school and says, I wouldn ' t ride the cheesebox if it were a free ride to school. NOT LOCKOUT! Mixed Emotions on Policy A new tardy policy was put into effect this year to combat the large number of stu- dents disregarding the tardy bells and coming to class late. The poli- cy of locking out stu- dents who couldn ' t manage to be on time has been received with mixed emotions. Sophomore Lynn Vavul expresses the feelings of many Clay students: ' I can ' t stand lock-out! I ' d rather be in class than lock-out. Lock-out does have some good points. Late students are no longer disrupting and delaying class time, and students are mak- ing more of an effort to be on time for fear of losing credit for work done in class. The fact that some students have been purposely late to avoid class is upsetting, but so far lock-out has worked well. 6 ' V-- SERIOUSLYI Freshmen Jen- nifer Ladd and Lisa Harwood are out of control.
