Extra Pressure And Work Brings Up The Thought . . Is It Really An Honor? ell, that's really interesting.

During an un- scheduled visit to the board, Mrs. Barba- ra Stacey explains a topic to her students. iPhoto by Todd Harshbargerl What some students don't real- ize is that students in APfHonors classes have trouble too said Clarissa Wright a participant in the Advanced Placementfldonors program. APfHonors classes were avail- able for students who didn't mind extra homework for already hard subjects such as English and American History. Students were rewarded, howev- er with an extra quality point. The quality point raised each letter grade one point. For example, a B became an A and so on. Lanie Ross, a junior who took the honors pre-calculus class with Mrs. Kay Autrey, felt that the class was not only challenging but good preparation for college. The rigid schedule and demands make the elcome to the insect world.

An advantage of the AP program was the chance to exempt a class for college credit. Seniors and juniors who participated in the program took a cumulative test in May to test their knowledge of the class they took. Stephen McClain, a senior who took the AP English class with Mr. Mark Franks, felt the class was worth taking, even though it was harder than other English classes. The rewards of taking an AP or Honors class definitely outweigh the disadvantages. Britt Lunceford rendy teacher.

Students take action to prepare for their future, but some still puzzled Which road will take me vvhere? Through history, men have at- tempted to forsee the future, but no one has yet concocted the ideal way of foretelling. Students at Mauldin took a stab at choosing future ca- reer plans. While the majority of underclassmen still pondered col- lege and occupation possibilities, seniors began mapping future plans. Darryl Caney, a senior, said. I realize that I need to go to college. I plan to major in business adminis- tration at either USCS or Wofford. Darryl took economics and other various business courses during high school in pursuit of a business career.

I'd like to go to col- lege and study communications. If it doesn't interfere with my grades, l'd enjoy playing small college football.

Demetrious' rap band, The Gucci Crew, signed a re cording contract with MCA R cords. Their first single, which De metrious wrote, just Say No, let the glamour of making it big in music detract from his studies. I'm going to college even if I don't make it in the music business.
