] h Fall activities ring students together Students concentrate on academics and recreation Once fall began, it was time to stash the jams and pry away from the soaps on television. To prepare for the 1987-88 school year, students made their annual pilgrimage to Walmnrt for school supplies. began thinking of ways to bum lunch money from naive freshmen, and fought for parking spaces in the parking lot. Once again, students looked forward to cramming for a test the period before, trying to talk their way out of homework, and convincing their teacher that the Hero VI Club really existed so they could get out of homeroom. On the serious side, fall brought many new activities to M.C.H.S, along with the cver-popular traditions. When school began in August, everyone was looking forward to the first pep rally, where seniors could “boo” the freshmen, and so on down the line. The football games were a definite “yes” for extracurricular activities. It was a place where everyone who was anyone could be found. The fall play. Grease . brought insight into the nostalgia of the 50's. Athletes were ordering their letterman’s jackets, and seniors were ordering their invitations. After school, or after practice, teens cruised over to Mickey-D’s for a Big Mac, fries, and a coke. No matter what the activity, Millington students were always entertained, one way or the other. Fall brought new insights on the year ahead, and new beginnings for the years to come. ACTIVITIES 19
