Between Florida New York By the time Spring Break arrived, ev- eryone was in need of a vacation. The tension between the student body and the administration was thick. The vacation re- lieved many problems including the in- creasing restlessness and ‘‘senior slump’. Some students traveled to sunny Flor- ida, while others journeyed to a chilly New York City. Students soaked up sun rays during the day and enjoyed the music at night. Most seniors returned to Richmond with sunburns and peeling skin. The drama club journeyed to New York City to see Broadway plays and to enjoy the city. They enjoyed the performances of Sugar Babies, Pirates of Penzance, The Fifth of July, and Evita. Students met some of the stars of plays such as Richard Thomas (John Boy) and Rex Smith (rock star). They also visited some famous New York City attractions includ- ing Macy’s, Mama Leone’s, and the Em- pire State Building. Monacan students vacationed with their families everwhere across the Unit- ed States and abroad. Some reunited with old friends to have good fun. Most importantly, Spring Break was a much needed rest away from school work, teachers, and the alarm clock. Rosie Cheeks Lisa Harris smells a red rose at a restaurant in Spain. Spring Break 55
