Whether it's the summer months or the numerous breaks during each year, it is eagerly anticipated time-off. Red Knights enjoy different activities during these breaks. Some leave Lee County for a fun- filled day at Walt Disney's Magic Kingdom or Busch Gardens Dark Continent. Others travel farther seeking adventure throughout the United States and the world. Still others remain at home, enjoying Lee County's famous attrac- tion, the beaches. Most North students who seek fun in the sun on our Gulf beaches, pack their cars with paraphernalia for a few hours of relaxation. A few students though are hitting the beach in a new style, that of interval ownership. Their families have invested in a new concept, vacation-by-the-slice. This new way to enjoy beach living with a minimal investment became extremely popular during 1981-82. People bought into Lee County beachfront condominiums for one or two weeks, or whatever period of time would fit their life style, preference, and pocket book. They could enjoy the sun, the warm waters, and the beautiful beaches each year in the luxury of a beautifully furnished apartment with the resort extras of a pool, tennis court, hot tub, and sauna. With inflation and the continuous growth of tourism in Lee County, this may be the vacation answer for more and more North High families . . . especially if they want to enjoy one week of heaven on the nearby beaches.

President Reagan gave them one day to return to work. When they didn't, he fired them. Public support was not with the strikers such as Bill Haney and his family, shown here on the picket line at LaGuardia Airport. PATCO predicted dire consequences but with supervisors, non-striking air controllers, and military filling the towers, there were none. By year's end PATCO was decertified as a bargaining agent by the National Labor Relations Board and prospects of the striking controllers return- ing to their old jobs was nil. Events X 37

Classes in everything from slimnastics to Spanish, floral design to Florida Gun Safety, sewing to shorthand are offered through the auspices of Lee County Adult and Community Education. The community education program at North High is administered by Mr. Stan Mulford. It offers opportunities for citizens, 8 to 80, to further their personal educational and recreational interests. Although classes run for nine weeks, this unique night school operates under an open enrollment policy which means individuals may enter class at anytime and work at their own pace. There are two extremely popular programs on North's campus each session. One is the G.E.D. class, which helps adults prepare to take the General Education Development Test, which when successfully passed grants them a high school diploma. The other is the series of high school classes in math, American History, language arts, and Americanism vs. Communism, designed to allow juniors and seniors and adults to earn credit towards their regular high school diploma. One thing that is very special about this school is that the halls are never crowded and there are no bells to direct the students. Mr. Mulford attempts to keep the teacher-pupil ratio close to 1 to 15 so instruction can be in- dividualized and relaxed. The community owns the school .. . with this program, they ' i use it.
