sm ll town IG SCHOO Big school blends with small town giving everyone unlimited choices In addition to conducting many activities within the school, students and staff interacted within the small town. First, the United Way drive turned out to be a hugh success as numerous teachers and administrators cooperated peacefully with the authorities that hauled them off to jail. The National Honor Society helped cheer up the less fortunate with their annual toy drive. Finally, the Christmas buffet brought the school and community together for an enjoyable dinner. With a school as big as MCCHS, students and staff expected changes on an annual basis. The most noticeable change centered around the organization of the school day. School started at 8:00, ten minutes earlier than last year but ended at 2:50, five minutes earlier than last year. Some students found it hard to adjust to the time changes. 1 had to reevaluate my old morning schedule, including time for driving to school. Since the bus schedules are the same, I had new bus routes to work around, said Michelle Hultema, senior. New teachers patrolled the halls and tried to put their education to good use in teaching the students. The school board hired a total of 8 new teachers to fill spots left vacant. Each year new teachers add new ideas, new approaches to old problems. Their fresh perspectives and enthusiasm are important ingredients in the total success of the year, commented Shirley Carmony, head of the English Department. Students will always remember, as graduates do, that this big school gave them their start for a life in this small town.
