Growing Pains n a time of shortages, Central Florida has, in the 'past few years, developed as an exception to the rule. A quick glance down any Orange or Seminole county highway reveals just the opposite of shortagesg it shows signs of growth. While people all over the country find buying a new home an impossible dream, here it seems a new housing development springs up on every bare patch of grass not already planned for a shopping center, new school, or medical complex. Not even little Geneva, with new developments such as Seminole Woods, has escaped the sound of buzzsaws, hammers, and the endless stream of construction vehicles rolling up and down the roads. Winter Springs has joined ranks with Oviedo by claiming its first stoplight -- a result of the widening of highway 434 - and Tuscawilla residents found that new swimming pools were rap- idly replacing those attractive little patches of woods - part of the community's origi- nal appeal. All this expansion has really stemmed from another growth, increasing popula- tion. The increase in enrollment in southern Seminole county schools probably indicates this growth better than anything else. lt also shows that younger people not only come to Florida as tourists to catch some sun and visit the Magic Kingdom, but they have now decided to settle down and establish roots here. The list of the top five schools in Semi- nole county experiencing the greatest increase in enrollment includes OHS, the fastest growing high school. The ten per- cent increase from last year brought the total enrollment very near capacity level for the Oviedo facilities. Nevertheless, coopera- tion from administration, faculty, and stu- dents made the situation easy to handle. 4 X Opening Pep rally days show the true impact of the growing OHS enrollment

ilhftn Ms. Nydia de la Hoz, a new addition to the OHS staff, finds it easy to fit in along with Mrs. Jean Gray, Mr. Mintrel Martin, Ms. Glenda Salley, and Mr. Ed Bolton, another new faculty member, during a pep rally. Another kind of growing pain, a broken leg, doesn't keep Tim Berger from coming to school, although much of his time is spent on the side lines with friends Carole McVay and Mike Gregory. Principal Charles Webb observes the manner in which stu- dents easily handle a slightly crowded lunchtime situation. Residents as well as tourists await the completion of the new International Airport complex which will accommo- date the ever increasing flow of air traffic. Opening 1 5
