School's open doors extend challenging invitation Each September brings a complete change in a high school. Newcomers enter the wide, strange halls for the first time. Re- turning students enter familiar winding corridors. Some of these students will fill positions of leadership; for others, there are smaller but equally important places. As students and instructors walk up the steps and through the doors on that first day, they immediately enter the realm of challenge and never leave it. Challenge manifests it- self in the readjustments, the new problems, minor and major, which erupt during each class period, at each lunch period, after school in football practice, at a club’s first meeting of the year; it confronts every Rebel as he enters Douglas Freeman High School. Challenge shows its face in the expressions of others. it is bewildered anxiety in the face of the weary cheerleader who struggles to raise spectators’ waning spirits. It is puz- zled determination in the face of the science student who works on a difficult problem or completes a complicated project. It is satis- fied assurance in the face of the student who knows the answer to a tricky test question. Often defined more often undefined, chal- lenges gradually materialize day by day.
