Behind the activities and classes dwell the memories of daily encounters at RCHS: Waiting in a never ending lunch line, only to discover the supply of French fries has run out and there is no room to sit at the lunch tables. Entering a classroom the day after being absent and trying to convince the teacher the blueslip. a savior for all students, is really missing. Leaving the library as the beeper goes off because you accidentally picked up a library book. “Go out to the sidewalk!” squawks a teacher as you proceed to ruin your new loafers in the snow during a November fire drill. Although these everyday happenings are not the first things that come to mind when looking back, without them creating some variety, school days would have been monotonous.■ 8 — ()penmg

ml People encounters played a large part of our high school lives: Sophomores quickly adjusted to the abuse seniors inflicted. To have a boyfriend who arrives late to his classes every day because he walks to your class first. Being stopped by a principal in the hall during a class period only to have him compliment you on last night’s game. Whether it was a rare whipped cream kiss or an everyday meeting with a close friend, encounters with people should never be forgotten.■ Opening 7
