ItteKtiOK {jOJi yowi daidy QwROUuCmeKtS T ypical days from students’ lives were often monoto¬ nous. Around 6 a.m. your alarm buzzed, and the day began. You rode the same old bus, saw the same old peo¬ ple, and your closet held the same old clothes. When second hour arrived, you awoke to “Attention for your daily announcements.” Your class chattered through the five minutes, and you hoped that you didn’t miss anything important. As 2 p.m. neared, 2,061 students and 94 teachers eyed the clocks for the 2:05 dismissal. Some made plans before catching the bus. Others found life after school in club meetings group projects, or athletic practices. Homecoming, Powder Puff, and Prom required after-hour preparation, while the Tur¬ key Trot tradition fell to the wayside. Spring fever hit as senioritis became conta¬ gious, even for the underclassmen. What had started as a monotonous year, suddenly disap¬ peared with only memories left as a reminder. by: Nancy Smock 20 “Attention for your daily announcements”

I don’t know if I can take another year of this!” commented Jenny Stamey. Seniors didn’t have it any easier than anyone else, but they had something to look forward to at the end of a day. They were one day closer to graduation. For juniors the tension was building. Just to think that after one more year they’d be free. Free from the rules and regulations that drove all students crazy; free to choose their main goal in life. Sophomores had just begun to experience what high school was about. Some students said that they didn’t mind getting up so ear¬ ly. They enjoyed coming to see their friends. Lori Hilbrich said, “I enjoyed going back to school be- M I don’t know if I can take another year of this,” said Jenny Stamey. cause I got to see all of my friends that I didn’t get to see over the summer and I got aquainted with people I didn’t know. I’m going to miss school when I graduate.” Don’t forget about the freshmen. They had it the worst of anyone. They had to learn their way through the school and hope they got spared the embarrassment of getting lost and walking into class late. Naturally the first week didn’t pass as quickly for the freshmen as it did for those who knew what to expect. by De ice Sarti Not used to getting up so early, fresh- The first assignment is always the man Brian Angerman takes a nap worst.
