The thing I hate most about school is getting out of bed in the mornings, Melissa Mosley, junior, said. For many students school was very important, but for others it was just something they had to do. What you do in high school will show patterns of what you will do out in the world after graduation, so it is very important to form good habits, Junior Trae Fowler said. But some people felt like Junior Susan Phillips. 'il come to school to sleep and get by with as little work as possible. With extracurricular activities available, students often found it easier to cope with the hassles of school if they got involved. Keep- ing up my grades is very important, but in order to be happy with school, involvement in organizations is also an important part, Junior Melanie Sanderson said. In the day after day school routine students found many things to cope with. After Coach Carl Copeland became head coach he en- forced stricter football codes. One code was a shorter hairline and no facial hair. For some guys this was dreaded, but for others it made no difference. We did it 'cause we had to, James Coffman, junior, said. Other things students had to cope with were deciding what classes to take when registering, and changing their schedule when a class was full before they got there. Deciding whether to study for a big test or go on a date was a dreaded decision for most. Some juniors had to deal with the fact that they didn't have a car and all their friends got new sports car. All of these things were hard for juniors to cope with, but the worst was probably what seniors called senioritis. Towards the end of March this disease seemed to affect not only seniors, but sophomores and juniors as well. Juniors Donny Walker and Heath Greenlee use the library to study for tests and junior themes. 2

rw Year troublesome School not always a barrel of fun Getting in trouble seemed inevitable for some students as far as school was concerned There were rules to .follow and penalties that had to be paid if these rules were broken. You can go to school and have fun but you don't have to raise cam Junior Brenda Silva said. No talking eating or sleeping in class were the usual rules. Junior Kisa Kearney remembered that sleeping in Mrs. Jeanne Fisher's se- cond period French Class was something you did not get away with. I was so embarrassed I got laughed at by everyone, she said. The penalties for breaking rules ranged from staying after class to On Campus Suspension KOCSJ. What I remember is having to sit in the room not being able to talk to anyone and being bored, Joey Gar- rett jumor said According to Mr Tom Watkins, Junior vice principal, '82-'83 was a more pleasant school year as far as disciplinary problems. And most everyone learned their lessons. OCS was the punishment many received. After a long day, a student takes time to stretch.
