We Keep Busy After School School officially ends at l:45 - for most students, that is. For others, hours of extra-curricular work are just beginning. Long overdue tests are made up in sched- uled office hours. Conflicting appointments cause hur- ried trips from one room to another, to get the extra help our teachers are so willing to give, or to catch a few minutes of a club meeting. As soon as a class plans an activity, committees spring up, insuring the success of the endeavor.

The Senior Play provided some great entertainment this year as Mr. Fraser and his cast presented Our Hearts Were Young and Gay.
