When the bell rings at 2:45, the sched- uled school day ends, but what goes on after school is just as important as classes are. Students find this time of the day the busiest part of their lives. Homework, jobs, sports, and club meetings become part of the daily rou- tine. This time allows students to par- ticipate in activities that they enjoy and which will instruct them in their specific interests. However, not all after school activi- ties are planned or have any purpose other than mischief, socializing, or fun. Decorating lockers, going to dances and games, and toilet papering houses, especially teachers' houses, are fondly familiar to most students. According to an anonymous TPer, ‘ Exterior decorat- ing has become a refined art for me and my friends. The challenge, excitement, and creepiness make our expeditions something to look forward to. These social gatherings give stu- dents something to look forward to and also give them an opportunity to bois- terously release tension built up by the end of the week. Whatever the activity, this life after 2:45 plays an important role in high school students' lives. What could happen next ?' Carol Broker thinks as she stares in awe at her newly decorated yard. Picking up evidence from the previous night's ac- tivities. she extracts toilet paper from her new dispenser. 14 Life After 2:45

Life After 2:45 fot Jh JJitne As couples wearing formats and flow- ers crossed over the white steps and entered the Junior Prom, they were Suspended in Time.'' The LHS field house had been transformed into a ball- room of violet, lavender, and white streamers and flowers. The prom committee spent many hours planning and preparing for this memorable evening. Prom committee chairman Jenny Crook said, “ The most exciting part of being on the prom com- mittee was decorating on the Friday be- fore the dance. It was a lot of hard work, and we felt great anticipation while we were putting the decorations up. When the people complimented us on the ap- pearance of the gym on prom night, it gave us a really warm feeling. The results of everyone's well-spent time and effort were unveiled on the evening of Saturday, April 30. The dance was held from 8 to 12 p.m. Queen Chrissy Schoenholz shared her thoughts about this special evening. These memories of a beautiful night will stand out in all our minds when we look back on our high school year. Following the grand march.
