For four years the complete framework of a person’s life is often provided within the high school. They fill in the framework with the many materials school provides: academics, sports, and the wide assortment of clubs and activities offered here. Although there is enough within the four walls of HPHS to gain a satisfactory combination of the color and texture necessary to complete the picture, it is possible to reach even further, out of the framework of school, and add to the total portrait. Learning experiences in environments other than school occur more frequently for people who attempt to find their own interests. When individuals follow a separate path towards a unique goal, many new qualities are added to the canvas. Although these interests are unrelated to school, they enrich that person, who in turn contributes a new dimension to school. Thus, the total feeling is one of individuals fitting together as a whole. ACTIVITIES FEATURE 11
