Potomac High School - Prowler Yearbook (Dumfries, VA)

The first day of school, kids were more or less glad to be back in school, but groaning anyway about the end of summer vacation. Homeroom dragged on endlessly as teachers gave out the handbooks and assigned lockers. They talked on and on . . . and on, mostly about classroom ideas and the like. It was hard to pay attention to them — who wants to hear rule upon rule on the first day of High School? Besides, everyone wanted to see and talk to old friends. Between classes we tried and tried to open our lock¬ ers. Kicking and pounding didn ' t work but after a while most of us finally learned the trick: dialing the combination, pushing the lock up, then finally yanking it down. Not that there was anything good in our lockers at the time, no books were around to put in them. By the end of the day, however, books flowed from the lockers! No homework, thank goodness, but who knew what tomorrow would bring?
