Auto mechanic students, junior Dave Kazmierzak and senior Steve Holt, work on the brakes of a car during their auto mechanics class. uture Plans Two fries, fifteen Big Macs, four Quarter Pounders with Cheese, and six chocolate shakes! This is something commonly heard by senior Danielle Coffman who has an after-school job at a fast food restaurant. She plans to attend col- lege next year and is saving her money for it. Junior nick Fickel works at Sauers washing cars. He works to pay for his car. Hick says, I work to pay for my car. I have a car so I can work.” That seems to be a com- mon phrase among the guys at Hew Prairie. To pay for his social activities , junior John Arndt washes dishes and cooks at Mel's Diner in Hew Carlisle. Many of today's teens use the money they make at there jobs on activities outside of school. Having an after school job is be- coming a regular part of every high school student's life. It helps to pay for all the material things that teens seem to need. It also gives us an opportunity to learn about how to get along in the job world. 4 Be True To Your School Future Plans

Look There are many areas of our school that people seldom take the time to notice. One of these is the locker areas. Can you imagine what life would be like without a locker? A person would have to carry their books and supplies from class to class all day. Sounds tiring! Many people decorate their lockers with everything from pictures to mirrors. One of the most original lockers can be found in the junior locker area. Steve King has carpeted the inside of his locker with brown shag and plans to install a strobe light as soon as his finances permit. Another area of our school peo- ple tend to take for granted is the locker rooms. These rooms serve many purposes. Teammates and coaches consider them to be con- ference rooms. Team strategies and lineups are decided here. Locker rooms are also a place for people to talk. Before and after practices people have a chance to discuss things dealing with school in general, not just the current sport. 6 Be True To Your School Inside Look Often coaches decorate their athlete's lockers with things that are funny, strange, or inspiring. Senior Theresa Cowgill stands by her locker which swim coach Kathy nova decorated. Senior Ryan Pesce, who is involved in cross-country and track, used pictures from running magazines to give his locker a personal touch.
