This was very exciting, while at the same time, very frightening. Immediately they were instructed to report to homerooms. That alone, for someone who was unfamiliar with the school layout, was similar to engaging in a treasure hunt. Who knew where room 21 was? Why wasn't room 45 next to room 46? After finding their homerooms and receiving their schedule cards, the con- fusion continued. Why do I have math two different periods? Do they really teach English IB in the Orchestra room? When the bell rang and it was time to reenter the milling, smiling multitudes out in the halls, it seemed as if they had been thrust into a technicolor nightmare. So many people hurrying here and there, screaming hello to friends not seen over the summer. As the days slipped by, 9th graders quickly adjusted to the daily routine. They learned who to ask for help and who not to, how to get from class to class without being trampled, and to endure the gentle barbs from upperclassmen about their minute stature and lowly status. One problem continued to exist, no lockers were assigned. As each teacher assigned books, the student had no choice but to lug them all from class to class. Finally, after a month of school, locker numbers were assigned. To their dismay, many found themselves as- signed to a locker with strangers, or to one without a lock. As if fate were really against them it was inevitable that the tallest members of the class were as- signed the bottom lockers, while the shorter students got the top, higher ones. Though all the trials they encountered in their first year seemed quite over- whelming, they survived. Soon they began to look forward to next year, when as sophomores they could look with amusement at the bewildered faces of their successors. Freshmen f 97

Ms. Beverly Gaudelli and Ms. Charleen Fischer, class sponsors, surprised the coun- cil with wonderful news. Upon graduation the previous Iune, the Class of 1981 had donated 8200.00 to the incoming Freshman Class treasury. Knowing they would have to finance all their ac- tivities during their four years at North High, they quickly formulated plans to add to this monetary nest egg. Bake sales, car washes, and a Christmas candle sale all proved to be successful due to the en- thusiasm of these newest Knights. When all their bills were paid, the ninth graders managed to end their first year with a healthy balance in their account. They had taken a giant step into their future while learning to work together and enjoy themselves in Big Red Country.
