The paradox of a jigsa w puzzle is the chaos of its scattered pieces which can be resolved to form one unified and perfectly struc- tured unit. Like the puzzle, a high school ' s seemingly chaotic and scattered segments can be fitted together to form a unified and harmoniously structured community. In looking for major divisions in Longmeadow High School, one can easily find general cate- gories such as students, faculty, academics, and extracurricular activities. However, these divi- sions can also be broken down into individual graduating classes, administrators, teachers in the various departments, courses that cover scores of sub- jects, and activities ranging from the varsity football team to the French club. As the dividing con- tinues, the school ' s many aspects appear jumbled and disordered, like the pieces of the puzzle scat- tered across a table. Yet, eventu- ally the pieces do fit together. Each class has its responsibilities in the workings of the school, whether they be organizing Homecoming Day or ushering for graduation. The administra- tion conducts the business of the school, while the faculty devotes its time to the student body. Aca- demic distribution requirements ensure a well rounded education for L.H.S. students, and the many course choices allow for even more variety and diversity. Extracurricular activities com- plete the last sections of the Longmeadow High School puz- zle by connecting diverse student talent with activities that gener- ate school spirit and unity.
