Freshmen decide to cross the street in groups, after much discussion. Forms and Follies Fill The First Day At Ole G.A.! Students scan homeroom assignment sheets for one familiar item, their name. Familiar Faces twenty-one The first day proves to be a test for everyone's patience and their stomachs. Seniors seem unaware that this is the last first day. August 23? What made this day different from other lazy summer days of sleeping late, watching favorite T.V. programs, or lounging in the sun? It was the first day of school at Glynn Academy for the 1976-1977 school year. On this day close to 2,000 students poured into the halls of Glynn once again. Greetings rang back and forth to the accompaniment of locker slams and running feet. Forms were filled out, announcements were heard, and bewildered faces stumbled around the campus looking for their final destinations. Everyone from the flunky freshmen to the super seniors were equal as one on that first day; lost. Together we all worked side by side to make a good beginning for the great year to come!

To most G.A. students it meant beach parties, summer jobs, softball, watching the late show, and just plain taking it easy. Student Council and Annual Staff members attended workshops. Some students participated in the Governors honors program. Towards the end of the summer, cheerleaders, football players, and band members started practicing for the upcoming year. All in all the summer of ’76 was a fun packed and eventful one for all G.A. students. twenty ■
