The sun always seems to shine on student life, giving time for activities outside of school and homework. Have you ever won- dered just how other Rebels occupied their spare time? For some, after school jobs took up a lot of their time. Pumping gas or selling clothes, both jobs meant a big jump towards responsibility. Just as impor- tant was that ever glorious pay- check. When pay day rolled: around, the money often went towards a date, a concert, or something that you felt you deserved. However great or small, the money always came in handy. Some acked to the stage to take part in either Stunt Talent Night or the school plays. Whether they were on stage, make- up, lights, costume, or direct- ing, they all played an equally important part in its production. Many students spent their spare time developing an interest or a hobby. They ranged from the ordinary such as painting or singing to some things very out of the ordinary. At any rate, it was the interest of that per- son and it was something they truly enjoyed. Stil, many Rebels spent their time the best way possible — with friends. Boyfriends, girlfriends, and best friends — all were equally important. Whenever you had a: problem they were there to listen at least. They went to football games, the movies, and parties with you, and you soon discovered that life without friends would be impossible. So the sun really did shine on the student life of the Rebels providing time and opportunities to get the most fun we could out of life. Spirited Rebels. Enthusiastic juniors cheer at a pep rally during the class competition, as a Rebel flag waves silently in the background. Student Life 7
