We all know what happened off campus and after school, but what happened . , . During 8:00 to Three As the tardy bell rings, it's 8:00 a.m. ona bright Monday morning. 1 is Another day, another week, another gear, students mumble. As thetclasses egin, the halls are empty and peaceful due to the new tardy policy. . . This day was just the beginning as there were new teachers, students, and requirements to face, seven new teachers and 467 freshmen to be exact. Tardyfunishment was reinforced and revise to read: 1 tardy and the teacher gives at warning, .2 tardies and you et two hours after school O.C.S. or all cfay Saturday school, 3 tardies and ou get automatic Saturday school, 4 tardies and you are suspended, 5 tardies and you are assigne to a special work study grou . . Athletics, dances, fund raisers, and other activities relieved boredom of classes and homework by briefly taking the 1618 students' minds off of thinking about them. But nothing could top Christmas vacation, spring break, or even the weekends when students took off to go out, visit friends, work, or just sleegi in for a change. For some the wee s passed too quickly, for others, not quickly enough. Seniors took S.A.T.'s, C.A.P., A.C.H., and A.C.T. tests hurried to meet graduation andfor college re- quirements, and saved money for all the activities that went alongiwith the fourth year spent at P.H.S., suc as: Senior Ball, Senior Flin , Ditch Day: and so on.

Sophomores were enrolled in biology, world history, geometry, and rea y began writing essayms! For college prep students, this was t e year that colleges started looking at the grades. This year, I didn't Wong about get- ting lost, Bertha Ramos sai . Freshmen ac uired more skills in the reading lab, todlq the Hart bill test, and driver's education. . I didn't think I was going to like it here, but l did! exclaimed Michael DeMatty. A These freshmen also experienced the real meaning of crow ed halls as students rus ed during the 8 minute passing time to get to their classes. f'lt was a little harder than junior high, I met more people, partied a lot more than last year, and the teachers were great! Paul Shatswell Rizzuto commented. A year in the life of a Pittsburg High School student combined academic challenges, athletics, organizations, ac- tivities, fun, and friendship to make the school year a real learning experience. -- Merideth Fike .,.. .... .. ,,.... .... ,,...
