2 Th.m.- Sophomore Tom McConnell (top) teaches a gram¬ mar lesson in his Honors English class. Students in pre-calculus class (above) listen atten¬ tively to the following day’s homework. Sophomore Beth McFadden (middle right) con¬ centrates on her typing book as she takes a timed writing. Mr. Michael Wade (right) directs boys’ choir, practicing for an upcoming program. Academics: rising to the challenge Typing all night to finish a term paper, cramming until the wee hours to prepare for the big exam, spending weekend hours in the library searching for the right scrap of information, all these make academic excellence a challenge. Academic excellence involves a decision: the decision to make a sacrifice and top a list of priorities with a commitment to learning. It’s not always a popular decision to make, it’s not always an easy decision to follow, but the decision creates within the individual a sense of accomplish¬ ment and pride. When he would rather play football, when his friends go to the movies, when his favorite television show is on, he goes into his room and sits down at his desk. When the basket¬ ball team has a game, when his family goes out of town, when everyone else seems to be having fun, he stays at home and reads and studies. The satisfaction in meeting a difficult challenge is not the immediate kind. It is the long-term kind that produces doubts and worries and conflicts. It is the kind that makes him say, “Why should I?” It is the kind that shakes a disapproving finger and cobwebs his mind when he wants to brush it away and be carefree for one glorious Satur¬ day afternoon. But the challenge keeps his nose to the grindstone. The challenge helps him realize that in the long run this one afternoon just might make a difference. The inner feeling that he’s doing something good for himself grows and grows and helps him to grow too, as he travels through faraway lands, meeting Socrates and Newton and Henry VIII. He trains his mind to understand con¬ cepts and to grasp the intangible. He learns sacrifice and hard work and responsibility. He gains the respect of those around him. Most of all, he gains the respect of himself. He knows that he set himself a goal. He worked and sweated for it. He rose to meet the challenge.
