After School When The Whistle Blows For many students at lrlardaway, the 2:50 bell meant leaving school and heading home to homework, chores, and Oprah Winfrey. Some students, however, were willing to sacrifice and early departure to remain after the bell. These students were involved in the many after-school activities offered at Hardaway. The most obvious after-school activities were sports- related. These included football, basketball, wrestling, gymnastics, and cheerleading. The participants were always up against some pretty stiff competition: there- fore, many hours of practice were needed in order to keep the Hawks on top. Participation in a music organizations was another chal- lenging way students spent their time after school. The marching band rehearsed for hours on the band field. The choruses and the orchestra also spent time practic- ing the music that they had been working on during school. The hours these groups put in paid off in the many honors and awards they received. Students also became involved in many of the clubs offered by the school. Service organizations such as the Anchor Club and Junior Civitan met after school to leam in what ways they could better serve the commu- nity. Academic clubs such as AFS and the Science Club were organized for students whose academic interest went beyond classroom study. After-school activities not only provided students a way to become more involved in the school but also en- abled them to meet more people. These activities did require some commitment as well as time: however, if the students were lucky, they were able to get home in time to catch the last part of Oprah. Yolande Stove I' Chuck Thompson Many students go home, put on old clothes and relax at the end of the school day. John Haralson finds that leaning his back on the fireplace while lying on the floor and getting a glimpse at his favorite program is often relaxing. Student Life After the weeks practice, the Hawks look forward to an exciting game at the end ofthe week. Senior Jason Bunn displayed his abilities but somehow got a slight injury. Football players are tomed to hurts and Jason will be back on the practice field at 2:45 Monday after school.
