It was worth it!! - Matt Ritchie they would appreci- ate the finished prod- uct as much as the students did. Even with all the work the students made the school year fun, be- cause — they knew! It was only too soon that school began. Leaving behind the late nights and even later mornings so they could be at school by 8:00 a.m. was something many students regretted. However, realizing that tanning hours in the sizzling sun were drawing to a close, they began to rea- quaint themselves with their textbooks and class schedules. They knew the time had come for a new year full of work and fun with new friends and faces at new places! The new gen- eration of freshmen not only brought new faces to brighten our hallways, but also added a little fun to the seniors last-first day.

It was this attitude that would lead most of the sophomores to a successful year! Being only a few steps away from that final senior year was a thought inbedded in the minds of many ju- niors.
