Dashing madly down the hall with six books, a notebook, and gym clothes in hand is a Jr. High student - deter- mined to make it to his next class bes fore the bell. Mastering new classes and participating on sport teams are the difficulties and adjustments that must be made. The eighth graders, however are old pros and take over helping the new seventh grade learn the ins and outs of Jenkintown High. The boys football and basketball teams with hand-me-down uniforms and equipment learned their sports with devotion, preparing to some day participate on the J.V. and Varsity teams. The Jr. High girls also tried their luck at Field Hockey and Basket' ball. With perseverence they practiced and played. And, if they didn't have victories, they had fun. Jr. High sports, although they never receive all the at- tention and credit they deserve, are mandatory. Learning techniques and sportsmanship help to shape the Jr. High into true athletes. -ik 100lb.

ln many ways the Jr. High is just a miniature copy of the Sr. High. They have their own Honor Society to ac- knowledge the academically talentedg they have their own Student Council which sponsored dances and a Christ- mas party. The Jr. High cheerleaders kept the tradition of 7:15 a.m. prac- tices alive. Dressed in uniforms pre- viously worn by the Varsity, the girls were always raising spirits as they cheered the boys on. The Jr. High, with their many activities, kept busy this year knowing that some day, in the near future, they would compose their own, individual Jenkintown Sr. High. Right: Filming a story of life in Jen- kintown as part ofthe Jr. High gifted program, students receive Mrs. Reglias advice.
