fteiliooix delight With the rituals of the morning be- hind, students and teachers alike were challenged with the prospect of classes. It ' s especially hard for me to get moti- vated for classes on Mondays, ob- served senior Leila Ford, They just seem to drag. At times it seemed that individual days blended into weeks which in turn became months. A routine of going to classes, lunch, and then more classes only served to add to a day ' s monotony. But along with what seemed like end- less hours of boredom came a variety of events which served to brighten the days and make them special and unique. Throughout the year, special assem- blies were held where students and teachers had a chance to break from the routine. Concordia students were able to take advantage of assemblies given by students of Concordia Teachers Col- lege and the Afro-American Club plus a number of pep sessions. Also adding to the afternoon ' s sched- ule were extra-curricular activities. Groups held practices and meetings after school where students and teach- ers exchanged ideas while working to- 4. gether on common areas of interest. Students practiced for athletic events and drama presentations while clubs held meetings to plan for prospective trips and projects. Through extra-cur- ricular activities, students built lasting friendships, not only between them- selves, but also with their teachers. I don ' t think I would have appreciated my individual teachers for the people they are had it not been for my extra- curricular activities, said junior Ricky Hall.

When the average Concordia student finished his day at school, he often dis- covered his evening ' s entertainment would consist of preparing for the fol- lowing day ' s classes. This discovery was made every evening except for Friday. On Fridays the last thing I want to think about is my home work, said senior Ann Goeglein. Instead of studying, students made their way to football and basketball games which gave them an opportunity to back their teams and show their spir- it. Following the games, they would of- ten gather together and proceed to one of the near-by restaurants for an after- game snack or, in some cases, a full meal. To add variety to the night activities, Student Council provided nine dances throughout the year which ranged from casual discos to the Prom. Dance com- mittee chairman Dan Doehrmann com- mented, This year the attendance at the Student Council dances has been very good, mostly because we have been able to hire better bands. Weekend and evening activities gave students something to look forward to and helped make their high school memories something special and unique. ] ght moves
