Everybody out of the sack As usual, the grunts and groans seemed just a little bit louder on the morning of the first day of school. August 30. 1976. After all, it had been a long time since most students had had to rise at 6:30 or 7:00 a.m. to wash and get ready for school. Everything was in confusion because everyone was trying to greet old friends and catch up on the latest news, and work seemed beside the point. There was also the problem of schedules and trying to find out which of the four C-215's you had class in. especially since none of the teachers were around during break to help you out. They were too busy in the lounge trying to recover from the sudden realization that. yes. school had once again begun. The summer of 1976. our Bicentennial summer, was a summer of much diversity. For some it was a time to buckle down and earn some money, either for college or just for social activities. For others. it was a summer of travel. Although hesitant because of extremely dry weather and numerous fire bans, many families headed north to cabins. Youth groups went west to Colorado and mission trips to Mississippi and North Dakota, while a number of students headed East to celebrate the Bicentennial. Some students who stayed home got jobs working with children, which were more fun than money making. As August rolled around, it became time to start grinding the wheels in preparation for 1976-77. Inside, everyone realized that the fun had to end and work must begin. So. they came to school that first day. August 30. 1976. many complaining that even that was too early and opened the doors of Edina-West. The new year had begun as well as could be expected and before long everything was in full swing. 17
