Students Get A Break Kickin' Back At Lunch As the 11:55 lunch bell rang, there were sighs of relief throughout the school. Students were ready for the forty-five minute break between classes. Some of the students chose to leave the campus for lunch. Jane Lucero said, “I go to Cole’s,” when questioned about her lunch period. Other lunch spots included Maude’s, Circle K, PJ’s, RoNell’s, and Mary’s Place. Others decided to stay at school and socialize with their peers. Brian Cueto commented, “I just eat and sit in the hall at lunch.” The halls were usually buzzing with the sounds of students chatting about everything from their love lives to their classes. “I go down the alley,” was what Ralph Pacheco had to say about his lunch hours. Many students went to the alley adjacent to the school to escape the discipline on the school ground. Lunch was a good time for people to get a break from the monotony of the school day.

AFTER HOURS Going Home? Not Likely! After school, what a time! People rushed to their lockers and out the door just to get out of the routine of school. Yet, to some students the ringing of the bell that signaled school was officially out was just a part of a student’s day to day schedule. Many students were continuously occupied with extracurricular school related events, such as club meetings, class meetings, committee meetings, sports practices, band practices, cheerleading practices, wrest.lerette practices, etc. Katrina Serna was asked what she thought about going to practice instead of going home, “Well I really don’t get to watch my favorite T.V. shows but it’s worth it because I really like helping the girls”. Although extracurricular events were a main issue for some students, others were detained from leaving school for after school help, tutoring, finishing unfinished work, meeting publication deadlines, and even for detention. Toni Peru said however, “I think after school help is great. It gives you a chance to get the troubles you are having cleared away and will take off some of the load of homework you will be taking home”. All in all, after school wasn’t just for going home, but wouldn’t it have been nice? Escaping the routine of school, Clifton High School students hitch a ride on the Loma Linda Verde Lee bus home. Working up a sweat cheerleaders, JoAnn Chavarria, and Elizabeth Enriquez practice for upcoming games.
