Activities provided a chance for involvement and experience. To take the pressure off of everyday school life, events pro- vided an escape. This escape motiviated students to budget their time more wisely. As students took part in the unlimited activities, the school atmosphere changed and gave everyone a sense of belonging. Spirit competitions gave the student body a chance to display their pride for their class and their school. There was a melange of events including a victorious Homecoming game, the Dating game, the Variety Show and guest speakers which enhanced the school year. The school year proved to be one of the most energetic around, part of the reason being the many school activities that kept the year in PERPETUAL MOTION.

Construction builds new outlooks Expansion of the campus has created a new outlook toward the image of the school as the result of a flurry of activity lasting throughout the year. New lunch covers serving as shelter from the weather were constructed, and 52 new concrete benches were installed. We had the lunch covers built primarily for rainy days, said Principal Gary Norton , and we strategically placed the benches in locations where students were eith er able to keep dry or stav cool in the shade. Along with the new lunch covers, there was constant commotion on the hill where a math building, with capacity for twelve classrooms, was under con- struction for the duration of the school year. This would allow the current math science building to be reconstructed with eight new labs, and more room for the growing number of science students. I ' m looking forward to my new room because it will be a combination of the best of the old building and new ideas, said Math Teacher Bill George Even with the continued construction, plans tor the future were being made According to Norton, the enrollment is expected to increase to approximately 2400 students in the next few years. A new 24-classroom building, to house foreign language classes andan overflow of English classes, was also planned With tne continued expansion and plans for the future, Irvine High School has been in a state of PERPETUAL MO- TION — by Natalie Powell and Tracy Davio BENCH WARMING The new lunch covers and concrete benches, constructed prior to the start of the school year, provide a pleasant atmosphere tor students to socialize and eat lunch tmilv rhomat SCHOOL SUPPLIES Contrary to popular belief, paper and pencils aren t the only school supplies around campus as stacks of wood and nails are continually sported at the construction site of the new math building ENDLESS EQUIPMENT The continued construction creates constant commotion and noise, from the tractors and other equipment used for expansion of the Math and Science Departments Opening 9
