Jefferson High School - Monticello Yearbook (San Antonio, TX)

Foreword Lift the blind, secure the cord, and let the golden sun of autumn stream in. First days of school are filled with frantic registration, sophomore orientation, and the Get-acquainted Dance. Windows reveal colorful Band and Lassos practicing for halftime. Worn paths in the front lawn begin to form. Crass slowly turns brown and leaves of gold and red float to the ground. That last flower fades, the ru-sh of autumn is over, students settle down for winter. Rain and wind bang on the Windows. Blue-black skies of the first norther show behind leafless trees. The Snowman's Ball brings back the spirit which was lost when tears fell after the Highlands game. A bouncing ball on a shiny court extracts high-pitched yells as winter deepens. Windows glisten now after the first spring shower. They look down on budding trees and blooming roses and tulips as students begin spring activities. Cake sales, tamaladas, the spring formals, the Band Contest, and the Mexican Supper come like the new life of spring. Moon- light and Magnoliasfl HSL Patrick's Day , and uSayonara fill the Gym. The suspense of And Then There Were Nonel' engulfs the Auditorium. Melancholy and joy prevail at Class Day and graduation. The windows of Jefferson have looked upon the large rolling campus for 33 years and have seen the expansion of society and let in the sounds of progress. Additional windows will appear with the new wing. Three years is such a brief span-we have but a glimpse through the windows of Jefferson. ozllticiw N930-doa Editor-in-chief
