ack To The Books Each Classes View For The Beginning Of School Was Unique It was Au- gust 24, the opening day of the 1987 - ' 88 school year. The final sun rays of sum- Although the school was the same size as Swe- dens, I felt kind of lost and was late to some classes. I was a little nervous but peo- ple were really friendly. mer had slipped behind the horizon, and it was time to crack the books eariy in the morning once again. Junior J.R. Parent commented, Let ' s start a week earlier and have a 3 week Christ- mas vacation, while senior Mindy Luther replied, I wish school started later in the year and got out later. Beginning school was dif- ferent for everyone. For some, it meant the end of two-a-day practices, and for others it meant a totally new experience of getting lost. The freshmen, as if lost in a whole new dimension, looked up to the upper- classmen, sometimes far too much. Some upper- classmen were known for their mischievious behav- ior and pranks. A lot of the upperclassmen go around calling us freshmen and teasing us a lot, said fresh- man Kori Adams. For the sophomores, 2 leaving that dreaded fresh- I men title behind helped g them feel a little comforted o inside, yet they were still considered underclassmen. 1 They too, yet rarely, went through that high school initiation brought on by seniors. The Junior class felt a lit- tle superiority as they be- gan the school year, for they were no longer under- classmen. They had made the climb past the halfway mark in their high school careers. Junior Renee Mc- Coy stated, You feel like you can take charge since you have more experience in groups. For the seniors, it was an- other story. It was their last first day of high school, riext year would mean col- lege for some and jobs for others. Although scared about making it, 1 plan to attend a college in order to make a good career for my- self, commented senior Brad Lepper. After the groaning brought about from the classroom blues, we all got right to work, or at least tried. We all knew that hit- ting the books after a long summer vacation would not be easy. Just reading the ti- tle of a chapter was more work than done over the en- tire summer, but we still kept going, because that was a secret to our success.
