We live at school seven hours a day, five days a week, nine months out of the year. That doesn ' t include athletic practice, play rehearsals and club meetings af- ter school. When the bell rang on the last day of school in June, the kids who had en- rolled in a summer school might as well have stayed seated. Band mem- bers and football players walked out the door, said hello to the outside world, and headed back to Pike. Sometimes it just doesn ' t seem worth it— leaving the sunshine and poolside to hit the books, and having to wake up at 6:00 a.m. Yep. We ' re here at Pike High School for another nine months— in sickness and in health ( I think I ' m catching a cold from the air conditioning. ) for ri- cher or for poorer ( $24.95 for book rental?! ' ) for better or for worse. ( I think I flunked my calculus test. ) The 1975-76 school year is here.
