Suddenly, Nothing's Quite the Same We're all stuck in a whirlpool of change Where nothing remains quite the same Everyone sees the waters revolve And all get caught up in the game. None of us can stop the momentum it has We start wading but end feeling blue Things seem so useless, they must be unreal But all of the changes are true. Or maybe the currents will convert their course And be greeted with open arms All the world will look beautif I then When there's no reason for any alarm. But good or bad these changes occur Just as the waters revolve in the pool And in this book we are going to show How these changes occured in our school. -D.E.C.- ABOVE: Enthusiam ran high at the Homecoming pep assembly.

Changes are happening all a-round us. Some we realize, others we don’t. Many of the changes that happened this year in our school were superficial such as the carpeting and repainting of all the rooms. Others weren’t so easy to recognize like the new rules that were added to the Lowdown and many just tend to be overlooked as the freshmen were this year. No one really knew they were gone. It was just another change that didn’t greatly affect anyone. Unfortunately, there were those few changes that did touch us all tremendously. The deaths of two Greenville High School students Greg Blumberg, sophomore, and Doug Misner, junior. Though the year started out on a low note, it didn’t stop everyone from “enjoying schoof once again, with our old vice-principal, Mr. Jerry Cushman, gone and a new vice-principal, Mr. Tom Matchett on the staff, many changes were inevitable, Instead of the usual “dance done by Mr. Cushman for the Homecoming pep assembly, it was done by Wayne ritche who, in all respectability, looked very good in nis skirt. The renovation of the building made the school a lot nicer place to spend seven hours a day, five days a week. During the summer workers struggled to lay carpeting in all the classrooms except the fab and auto shop areas, and put tresh coats ot paint on the walls to match. The ceilings were lowered and finished throughout the entire building. The remodeling of the school was pushed by the school bo school board to help conserve and cut down on the cost of energy used to heat the school this winter. A new experiment was tried on the student body this year. Advisory councils were set up and they met for a total of 37 minutes each week. The administration believed that this would bring teachers and students, and even students themselves closer together. In some cases it did, and in other cases students spent the time being bored stiff. The student body only got out of the advisory councils wnat they put into them.
