Y., ' f fr 'Z if 31 Open classroom system revised l have realized how extremely important grades are to my future schooling and career. However, North's open classroom concept has made it difficult for the non-motivated students to do well in school. This system is designed basi- cally for the self-motivated. I feel that students need more discipline and a little less freedom to get the job done. I have noticed that the administrators and outsiders are finally realizing this and are trying to create a more disciplined atmosphere. For exam- ple, they have added more walls, limited unas- signed study time, and have emphasized the con- cept of 'back-to-basics' in the classroom. Brenna Katz, Senior

Mike notices changes in atmosphere l've noticed many changes here at North, which have affected my everyday life. First, there has been a difference in study habits: one may choose to be quite serious and take advantage of the well-stocked library and the quiet atmosphere provided there or one may prefer an atmosphere which is comfortable and re- laxed like the commons. Either way students are tak- ing a lot more pride in their school work Another change Ive noticed is that students are always conscious of clothing styles everything seems to be important from the shoes to the hair Guys hair styles have also changed from the shoulder length or longer to a styled and neater look All of these changes have affected my everyday life at North Mike Altman Junior ii l. North's leaking roof is in the process of being fixed after only eight years tnotlce the black patches. 2. Junior Connie War- ren takes advantage of North's comfort- able study atmosphere, as she relaxes in the commons with a coke from McDon- ald's. 3. Junior Bob Deneke stands beside the prized possession of most North stu dents-a car, which offers mobility and freedom. 4. Junior Eric Moran and seniors Paul Horstmann and Jeff Warner model the more sophisticated look that high school guys are wearing. opposed to leans and T-shirts. 5. Junior Andy l-larber, one of North's serous students. utilizes the com- plete facilities that North's library has to offer. 6. Junior Michael Junge and senior Jeff Schneider represent the contrast in hair styles of the early and late seventies .r ji' 1 ,ll .6 . ,- ' :saws 2? A A
