Subject to Change There is no way to know why, but something about this year makes it stand out from all other years. ‘Just a little bit different’ only begins to express the tremendous changes in schedules and classes, all the way to changes in feelings and attitudes about our future. An influx of new students, sharing classes, the Friday after- noon schedule, our eight-minute afternoon break, a student lounge with refreshments, the addition of a Journalism class, and the talk of consolidation or closing MHS all make this year significantly differ- ent — a year worth rememberins. At times it is hard to Feel secure and stable with all of these changes; however, it soon becomes ap- parent that life is never static and we need to deal with the fact that everything is subject to change. On Friday afternoons, students have four hours to work on projects. Mr. Mcintyre, Lance Jones, James Mack, Phillip VanBibber and Jacky Moore.

Whether you are into sports, drama, shop, Home €c. or just your studies; no matter whether you are tall or short, into country or rock, drive a junker or something nice it doesn’t really mat- ter because uniqueness is what counts. At MHS we have more oppor- tunites to try more things which brings out our real differences.
