Pie contest, class weddings brighten year As usual, school this year did not consist merely of classes, sports, and organizations. It included a variety of other activities, which could not be classified and placed in specific categories. The Sixth Annual Pie Baking Contest, for instance, was part of Mr. Motyl's AP biology class. The aspiring scientists took a respite from their microscopes to see who could create the best cherry pie in honor of Washington’s birthday. Other courses also included special activities. Several hundred students exchanged vows in a Family Living marriage project. Mr. Benson acted as justice of the peace for the ceremony. 28 POTPOURRI
