Students who went into classes with expectations for failure often discovered they were more able to handle their schedules than they thought. Others discovered that they were in too deep, and lightened their loads, a process which went on until the second semester. Athletic teams encountered their first obstacle: competition from other schools. They were sometimes surprised by how well the months of hard practice had prepared them 'for the challenge. Some seniors realized that they were more prepared for college than they had planned, while others found themselves hoping that the year wouldn't pass so quickly. Juniors realized that the college application process was closer than it seemed, and sophomores discovered that they didn't have to make so many ad- justments after all. So, as they made these fdiscoveries, students realized everything was beginning to happen. iSchriner and rWiIsoni .,..1u!!inn-ns. :g!,z HECE sponsor Mrs..

Either I am working around the house or l am working at a job. The free time that l had left, l spent going out with my friends, senior Lori Graham said. With the free time that students had, they shopped, sat by the pool, or just slept late. My parents were always complaining because I slept until noon everyday, but that's my idea of a vaca- tion, sophomore Mike Ewbank said. Camps also took up a lot of a students free time. Band, Pacesetters, football, and yearbook were a few of the many groups which met over the summer to practice. Summer band took up many hours of my free time. But when l'm out on the field putting on a half-time show, l realize how important all of those hours were, sophomore Mike Bergman said. ln the last weeks of August, the time to relax and have fun was coming to an end. 'tAt the end of summer, l really didn't want it to be over, but l was excited to go back to school and to meet new people. Other than that, now l'm just waiting for Christmas vacation to start, junior Lisa Enriquez said. jEwbankj Relaxing by the pool is a pastime of Working was one way to spend free many students this summer, Senior time.
