Builds As The School Year Starts August 21, 1986. The dread- ed day had arrived. Once again school was under way at Mauldin High. Several changes faced students as the school year began. With more teachers and students than ever, Mauldin was set for the best year yet. Situation number one: Soc- rates scheduling. This year Socrates computer scheduling replaced the traditional arena scheduling. Although the computer scheduling was ef- ficient, it created several problems. Some students were scheduled for only a couple of classes while others received classes they didn't sign up for. During the first weeks of school havoc and ,Q :ft l , il W 1 . l ' ........ chaos prevailed in the guid- ance department. New classes, in addition to sunrise sunset courses, made scheduling more confusing than ever. Lisa Jennings said, Even though the schedule changes were hectic, guidance did a good job in correcting the problems in the new system. Situation number two: Freshmen. Although the freshman class was larger than ever before and the odds were against them. They still managed to make their begin- ning days of high school memorable. As the tradition of freshman torture contin- ued, the upperclassmen made sure their freshman year 4 S 10 Begmnag Of felon! would never be forgotten Along with the usual trash ing of freshmen , a new era o freshman pranks erupted From chasing freshmen t selling them elevator passes the seniors tried everything.
