4 Opening Preparations... Before tlie ll)X2-X3 school year begins the faculty, often taken for granted, is hard at work. Mr. Kirk and Mrs. Cunningham are more often than not, found in the office pouring over grade cards and master schedules. Mrs. Cunningham tries her best over the summer to satisfy each student with the perfect schedule. Somehow there are always a few students needing urgent schedule changes. Mr. Kirk takes care of masterminding every detail of the summer work. One other person frequenti) overlooked is the librarian, who has the enormous task of inventorying the library, bach day of the summer Ms. Macy can be found in the library hard at work fil- ing cards for the card catalog, cataloguing materials, and organiz- ing the destroyed magazine section.

Patterns... It always seems that the first week of school is the easiest. It is a return to friends and time to catch up on the gossip we have missed during the last three months. There is also very little work done during this week which makes the time pass faster. This week is also a time of setting patterns. Just as patterns are set when college and work begin, the rituals of school also begin. We once again fall into the drollsome rituals of homework, tests, and school activities. Probably one of the hardest parts of school is just getting there as we all awake and begin over our drudgery of driving or riding the bus. If driving, we are usually tardy and spend the beginning of the morning in the office trying to convince Coach Kirk we really had a flat tire or ran out of gas. But as we finally return to class we again feel as though we are moving into our own set pattern. 6 Opening
