Sometimes we had guest speakers so it was especially important then to get here early. Even office workers were required to arrive before school started. They needed to prepare for students who came late or became sick. Mrs. Dorothy Absnaider stayed at school from eight to about five o'clock every day. Pep rallies were usually held every Friday morning during football season. Students and teachers expressed their spirit to back the team on to a victory. Practical jokes were a good way to arouse the crowd's attention at these assemblies. One of the best remembered jokes was when a few students got the urge to pop firecrackers under the bleachers. Lunchtime was another period which pupils and teachers enjoyed. When the Weather was good, many students went off campus to lunch with friends. A popular place was the Organ Grinder Pizza Palace in Commerce Park. Prompt, a necessity for students to return quickly. Shannon Stark commented, I really like Organ Grinder because they serve good food and the atmosphere is pleasant. Enough students remained at school, however, to keep the cafeteria full. Some bought lunches in the two lunch lines, others used the snack line and a few bought their lunches off campus or brought them from home to eat with friends. Probably the rowdiest behavior of the day took place in the cafeteria during lunch. While most ate and talked quietly, afew screamed at each other from opposite corners of Once one finished eating there was usually time left over to visit with friends or study in the library, Groups stood around in the halls and talked to each other just to have something to do. lf the library was not too crowded, the librarians permitted students to gather and study. Even though you can't be very loud in the library, it is still a nice place to talk to friends, said Aaron Sikes. But lunchtime was not all fun and fancy. From time to time fights or arguments were started, Teachers and administrators were forced to punish the students in such cases, usually by holding parent conferences, or in some cases, by suspension. At the beginning of fifth period Brian Kubena presented announcements on the public address system. Fifth period was lengthened for these announcements and the majority of the teachers required all pupils to be quiet and listen.
