lot IS a word that the tourists of Port Aransas will nev- er forget. During Spring Break of ' 88 a riot broke out due to overly populated beaches and overly intoxicated peo- ple. The National Guard and the Coast Guard were called into action to calm the violent crowd. There were no reports of anyone getting seriously injured, but the local hospitals and the First Aid Center on Mustang Island were jam packed with minor injuries. Cars were rolled over and set on fire and private propert) ' owned by visitors and local land owners was destroyed. The week after the riot students came to school wearing T-shirts with a logo saying I survived the Riot. Anicle Stephanie Barnett Mrs. P. says you can have your cake and eat it too. Jana Lee. Jeanette, and Sandra dream it was theirs. Bonnie Benham and Eric Sausman part ' at Port ■A . Party in the Sun Spring Break arrived slowly, but surely and the time to party was finally here. The students dis- persed in a variet) ' of dif- ferent directions. A large portion of the student body went to either Port Aransas or South Padre Island. Sophomore, Chris Frierson went to Dayton Beach. The things I enjoyed most about my trip was GIRLS, parties, and more GIRLS! stated Chris with a bashful smile. Some people had their minds directed on the 108 Spring Break slopes ol our countr} ' in- stead of the slopes of the opposite sex. Shane Bos- sard went to Lee Canyon in Las Vegas.

A twisted ankle, a tripped up toot, nostrils filled with the odors of tar and paint and the inevi- table footprints in the still- wet cement. These were just a few of the prices paid for a new, fresh looking school. Renovations got to everyone at one time or an- other, in its own way, whether it was sharing a table in the cafeteria with a construction worker or fall- ing into an unexpected hole. Mrs. Priscilla Rooth said, I have blackboards made for elementary school rooms and I have no win- dow blinds — but both of these conditions will be changed, I ' m sure. It had been realized, though, that all the hard- ships suffered had paid off. It looks modern and gives an upbeat look to the school. I think it gives a more accurate picture of the student body, said junior Sean Levine. A shiny, modern look- ing structure erupted from the ruins of a thirty year- old school. Prices were paid, in more ways than one, for the new look that was brought on by reno- vations, which were com- ing to an end. All in all, it seemed that every twisted ankle, every nasty smell and every cemented foot was worth a new sparkling school which everyone was proud of.
