m s quickly as the year started, it was winding down to an end. We remembered homecoming as king and queen were crowned. As winter set in Thanksgiving and Christmas passed without a sound. Finals were then upon us where did the time go? As the new year pro¬ gressed formal passed, as did prom. The year was coming to a close and a frenzie of quizzes, tests and finals left everyone happy that the year was finally over. Through the confu¬ sion of the crowded halls a word spoken went unheard.

Yes, there is life after school! tudents stay late When the bell rang at 2:05 the school day was over for most stu¬ dents, but for others it was just an¬ other passing period before their next class. Quite a few students stayed after school for either club meetings, sport practices, deten¬ tions or even extra classes. For club sponsors and members, after school meetings allowed for more time in organizing and decorating for ac¬ tivities. Stated Kelly Wanicki (10) Key club member If it weren ' t for after school meetings a lot of what we do wouldn’t get done. One club that held frequent after school meetings was OEA. OEA members stayed after school every day and Saturdays to practice their typing and secretarial skills for the competitions they participated in. Practice began Jan. II and continued until contest which was held Feb. 8. But Key club, OEA and other clubs weren’t the only reason students stayed after school. Some unfortu¬ nate students stayed after to serve detentions. It’s the most boring hour I’ve ever spent. You can’t talk, write notes or anything,” said Adriene Lopez (II). The detention started after school and lasted for one hour. Most students served the detentions instead of the alterna¬ tive swat. Some students took extra classes at the end of the day. One class that was offered was advanced chemis¬ try. The class, taught by Mr. Rarick. met after school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The class meets until 4:45 on Tuesdays and until 3:30 on Thursdays,’’ stated Mr. Rarick. The Practices are important for preparation,” stated Tom Smith (II), wrestler. 12 students worked labs on Tuesdays and listened to lectures and tested on Thursdays. This year the honors class was averaged into the stu¬ dents grade point. Next year the student will receive credit for the course, but it won’t be averaged into his grade point average. Another class that was offered was p.m. auto. The class was three hours long and began at 2:10. The stu¬ dents who took the class began the regular school day at 10:30 instead of 7:30. This way I don’t have to get up as early and once I’m up I don’t mind staying after, said Eric Gardner (12), auto shop student. The students were responsible for their own transportation to and from school. But the main reason students stayed after was for sports. Almost all school sports held practices after school sometime during the year. It’s important for girls to practice after school so that they are in top physical condition and don’t hurt themselves during a meet, stated Mrs. Clark, girls track coach. Both boys and girls track teams practiced frequently in the gym after school. Apparently there is life after school. by Chris Sovich
