More than a place to learn “Can you tell me where Room 212 is?” was a familiar cry as SCA Big Brothers and Sisters directed the puzzled newcomers to homerooms and classes. With maps and schedules in hand, incoming freshmen and sophomores bravely explored their new terrain. Cautioned by SCA President Jay Weinstein of elevator passes and senior privileges, the newly inducted Freemanites asked numerous questions of their Big Brothers and Sisters in anticipation of the first day. On opening day most classes were shortened due to the moming assembly in which Jay Weinstein stressed school involvement as the key to a successful year at Freeman. After the assembly, students returned to homerooms where endless forms were filled out resulting in cramped hands and boggled minds for most of the new ar- rivals. Classes proceeded in a semi- organized fashion as teachers and students took turns learning names and meeting new people. As the first tumultuous day finally drew to a close, many of the newcomers had already begun to take their places in high school, and were preparing to ready themselves for a year at Douglas Southall Freeman.
