BACK-TO-SCHOOL There was a lot more spirit this year. ” Jeff Smith Students at Lakeridge received a big sur- prise this year as all underclassmen were placed in structured IS classrooms during their independent study periods. Juniors and sophomores were released after two weeks on the condition of parental permission, teacher approval, and a minimum grade point average of 2.0. The freshmen were not completely “abus- ed,” however; they received help and guidance from the Big-Brother Big-Sister Program. Their “friend” helped them find classes and gave them a tour of Lakeridge. They were also greeted by their Big Brother or their Big Sister on Orientation Day. That night the student government sponsored the Howdy Dance. Back-to-School Night’s main objective was to inform parents of the outline and require- ments for the school. Pacer parents went to ten-minute classes. The yearbook signing party found many frantic students anxiously awaiting their annuals. Students signed yearbooks and nos- talgically reminisced. The junior spook house brought over 500 children to see all the ghoulies. Spencer Hin- son. who helped organize the spook house, thought it was a “big success.” Several games, two movies — featuring “Laurel and Hardy” and “The Roadrunner” — and of course the famed Haunted House” (converted locker rooms) thrilled visitors. October 18 the senior class sponsored a famous persons Dress-Up Day. Several spirited Pacers participated in the activity. Steve Har- land, junior, came as Bele from the popular television series Star Trek, and Beth Oliphant, junior, looked amazingly like Shirley Temple. Lakeridge experienced a first this year: an electrical fire attacked the boiler room on September 17. The cause of the fire was not determined; damages exceeded $1200. The fire disrupted several classes. Students willing- ly met in the rotunda, auditorium, and other vacant rooms. 1 — Becky Hodges and Laura Marble try to find a friend in the 1977 yearbook at the signing party. 2 — Brian Taylor, Laurie Myers, Laura Cleland, and Eve Gu twald wait for hungry Pacerparents to gobble up ice cream at the AFS ice cream social. 3 — Lisa Gango peers over the counter in the student store while John Sanders and Dave Candland show varied expressions which came with the beginning of school. 12 BACK-TO-SCHOOL
