Excitement of our first day brought memories of the previous years. The freshmen, however, found themselves in a completely new environment. Their enthusiasm soon proved them to be official Red Jackets. Returning students and new stue dents discovered one important change that elicited various respon- ses. Homeroom was held in the audi- torium where teachers checked their rolls, made announcements, and all present saluted the flag. This style of homeroom was established to prevent classroom interruptions, and to pro- vide for announcements and for class activities. With the county-wide reassignment plan students were sent to Jordan from other area high schools. Former Jordan students were transferred to Shaw High School or other area sec- ondary schools. Although this pro- gram may have created an enigma, youth had the will to adapt. New friends and a new environment became the spirit of '79 - the dawn of a new year.

Through Our Mony Activities ri Fired up Big Red, Fired Up! That was the type of enthusiasm we showed to our ball teams, clubs, and organizations. Our loyalty was contin- uous in supporting Jordan. The support did not end after the games or the event. We held many dances to raise money for clubs and organizations, to keep up the loyalty, and to maintain the overwhelming enthusiasm of the Red Jackets. r' gg X wg' ,K ui Q 5 :urging x
