Hi, ho! lt's off to work we go! This was the chant many Menchville students sang after school. Some students spent their summer working instead of lying out at the beach and bumming around. These students were hard working and diligent in their pro- fessions. They may have done bet- ter at their jobs than at school be- cause the job pertained to what they wanted to focus on in college or life. The students' jobs varied. For example, one was a dental assis- tant, another was a contract clean- er for Sunray Cleaners. Some of the jobs pertained to what stu- dents want to do after graduation. 28 Jobs R- takes away from I enjoy working at the Limited in the new mall because l love work- ing with fashion and l hope to get into fashion merchandising or to become a buyer for a fashion store.
