[ First Year of KHS As the bell rang throughout the halls on the first day of school, many sophomores' teeth were chattering and knees were knocking as they found themselves wishing they were seniors. Carrying on the tradition of asking ques- tions. getting lost, trying to make it to class on time and attending their first pep rally, everything about high school was exciting as well as frightening to many sophomores before them There were the indignities of the up- perclassmen's taunts and the anticipation of harder studies The modes of dress and actions were untried and new outfits were carefully plan- ned and pressed to make good impressions for the txg event However, self-assurance and relaxation set in as sophomores became a vital part of the school's function Looking back, many sophomores had mixed feelings about their first day of school. Natalie Rocky said. The school was totally filled with exciting new faces Sean Fisher said. The school was too big. Some things many found confusing were the new homeroom patterns which randomly includ- ed representatives of almost every letter of the alphabet Attempting to get up and down the congested stairways was also a great task to many On the lighter side of things, excitement about new dating prospects was in order Socializing and high school dances were anxiously awaited along with the chance to discover a new boyfriend or girlfriend As Valencia Freamon pointed out. it was very exciting meeting new people Reunions with friends and the meeting of new helped to make the school days for sophomores go a little smoother Brenda Brinson Angela Llop Ann Locke Lisa Lombard Richard London Rodney London Lisa Long Lisa Love Troy Lustig Kimberly Lyons Adam Mangett Kimberly Mann Anastasi Manolakis Elena Mantas Denise Marlatte Monica Marquez Donald Marsee Alan Martin Gene Martin Marion Martin Oscar Martin Valerie R.
