For the academic minded, classes such as physics, chemistry, and biology offer oppor- tunities to conduct scientific experiments. In photo 2, physics students Tressa Crawford, Sam Hightower, Robin Bolf, Michael Glaze, parent Mary Lou Knox, and Chantele Pesson track one of their model rockets as it glides through the air. Others enjoy the school's wide variety of extracurricular activities. From band to athletic to academic competitions, something exists for each student. In photo 1, Susan Kenley and Kriss Cor- ley, Lion band members, pose before a Fri- day night halftime show.

Most students rarely had all attenl tion focused on academics. Even after the impact of HB 72, which significant- ly decreased the absences a student could have for extracurricular ac- tivities and limited the amount of time one could spend outside the school day practicing and participating in school-related activities, the bill could not make students go home after school and study. Rather than studying, some students chose to leave Ozona on Saturday mornings by six o'clock to compete in academic tournaments while other students chose to compete in athletics. These choices reflected in- . . , his 31 . H dividual priorities. Pri-ori-ty fpri-ore-tel n. 1. that which precedes in time or order. 2. that which precedes in importance. Setting priorities paved the way for future privilegesg however, with these privileges came the necessity to set priorities. OHS students exemplified this philosophy by the choices which received top priority status in daily campus activities. Although more attention focused on sports than on academic concerns, most students set priorities which prepared them for life after high school. Computer, homemaking, auto mechanics and cosmetology classes opened doors to new technology and increased hope for times after high school years. Priorities make goals. Goals--adequate goals-formed the foundation for OHS education. ' by: Jena Alien OPENING SECT lON: FHOHITIES
