ii Ne Now we know, Michele Stegura is ticklish. “Lori, quick come hear! You won't believe what | just heard!” The tardy bell sounded and students rushed to class with thoughts of half-finished bits of gossip running through their heads. This scene was just one of the many events that took place in the halls of Pompano Beach High during that five minute break between classes. To an outsider, five minutes was not enough time to do much of any- thing, but it was just enough for a student to make or break a date, catch up on some of the latest gossip, find out where the parties were that weekend and even go to your locker (if you could remember the combination). DID YOU HEAR . How many times could you remember planning your routes on campus, just so you could catch a glimpse of that “certain someone” you had been dying to go out with? Or the time you sent your best friend to ask that girl you’ve been admiring, if she would go out with you? By the time he had enough time to tell you what she said, he had forgotten. Despite the efforts of the faculty, students continued to walk in classes late; and after three tardies you could find yourself after school in deten- tion. But even this could not always get you in your seat on time. Classes and studies often took a back seat to the social activities of a Pompano student. When time for exams came along, the time to study was more precious; than the Friday nights and the gossip about them was out. The smoking areas—a great place to meet friends. Mr. Moye’s joke gets a good reaction.
